A transcriptomic dataset evaluating the effect of radiotherapy injury on cells of skin and soft tissue.

Radiotherapy injury to cells of the skin and subcutaneous tissue is an inevitable consequence of external beam radiation for treatment of cancer. This sublethal injury to normal tissues plays a significant role in the development of fibrosis, lymphedema, impaired wound healing, and recurrent infections. To elucidate the transcriptional changes that occur in cells of the skin and soft tissues after radiotherapy injury, we performed genome-wide RNA-sequencing comparing irradiated cells (10Gy) with non-irradiated (0Gy) controls in normal human dermal fibroblasts, normal human keratinocytes, human microvascular endothelial cells, human dermal lymphatic endothelial cells, pericytes and adipose derived stem cell populations. These data are publicly available from the Gene Expression Omnibus database (accession number GSE184119). Further insights can be gained by comparing the mRNA signatures arising from radiation injury derived from these data to publicly available signatures from other studies involving similar or different tissue types. These global targets hold potential for manipulation to mitigate radiotherapy soft tissue injury.
