  • Abstract
    We examined the changes of human hepatoma cells HepG2 in vitro and tumors of HepG2 in vivo under the irradiation of FIR. And also microarray analysis was performed. As the result proliferation of HepG2 cells was inhibited and the volume of tumors decreased. Then it was suggested that energy-related genes might be affected.
