Popis: The results of this project provide proof of concept for an analysis of hyperthermia-induced in vitro cellular effects in relation to a thermal dose determination with a temperature-differential basis from each cell line's historical physiological temperature (HPT). Human ( Homo sapiens ) fetal cells, whose HPT was assumed to be 37°C, and guinea pig ( Cavia porcellus ) fetal cells, whose HPT was assumed to be 39.5°C, were used. It was hypothesized that in vitro cellular functionality (e.g. , fastest cell doubling time) would be maximal at each line's respective HPT and decrease with temperatures above and below each line's HPT. The hypothesis was supported.
