碳离子辐照对人肺癌细胞A549细胞周期进程的影响

选取对数生长期人肺癌细胞A549接受0—6.0 Gy 碳离子照射， 用克隆形成法检测细胞的存活率； 并于照射后12和24 h收集细胞， 用流式细胞术检测细胞周期各时相的细胞百分比， 观察不同剂量碳离子辐照对A549细胞周期进程的影响。 结果显示: 0—6.0 Gy 碳离子照射后细胞存活率显著下降； 照射后12 h细胞发生G0/G1期阻滞， 而照射后24 h， 1.0 Gy 照射组细胞在G0/G1期阻滞， 2.0—6.0 Gy 照射组细胞在G2/M期阻滞。 上述结果表明， 在A549细胞接受碳离子照射后的12 和24 h内， 1.0 Gy 照射可持续激活细胞G1期检查点， 而2.0—6.0 Gy 碳离子照射后其细胞周期进程是随时间变化的。 To investigate the effects of cell cycle progression of A549 cell induced by 12C6+ ion irradiation at different doses, the survival fractions of the A549 cells were determined by colony forming assay; cell cycles were analyzed by FACS at 12 h or 24 h after irradiation. The results showed that the percentage of survival in the A549 cells decreased with irradiation doses. Compared with control group， the percentage of the cells in G0/G1 phase significantly increased at 12 h after irradiation with different doses of 12C6+ ions. However， at 24 h after irradiation the percentage of the cells in G0/G1 phase significantly increased with 1.0 Gy 12C6+ ions， while the cells showed increasing percentage in G2/M phase with 2.0, 4.0 or 6.0 Gy 12C6+ ions. The results suggested that G1 cell cycle checkpoint was activated in 12—24 h after irradiation with 1.0 Gy 12C6+ ions， but after irradiation with 2.0—6.0 Gy 12C6+ ions， the cell cycle progression of the A549 cells changed with time.     

C离子辐照引起细胞分泌旁效应信号因子浓度随时间的变化

信号因子通常能介导旁效应的发生。 利用高LET C离子辐照体外培养的人肝癌QGY-7703细胞, 检测辐照后不同时刻培养基中信号因子TGF-β1和NO的浓度, 并通过转移培养基法检测照射后不同时刻转移培养基对人肝L02旁细胞存活率和代谢活力的影响, 发现受照射细胞在时间与空间上调控着周围信号因子的浓度, 并且通过信号因子浓度的变化影响旁细胞的各种效应发生。 实验为旁效应的解释提供了新的实验数据。 Signaling factors usually play an important role in bystander effect. In this work, human hepatoma QGY 7703 cells in vitro were irradiated with high LET carbon ions. Concentrations of signaling factors such as TGF-β1 and NO were measured in the media of the irradiated QGY-7703 cells at different time points after irradiation. The conditioned media harvested at various times post irradiation were transferred to human hepatocyte L02 cells as bystander cells and then the influence of the conditioned media on survival fraction and cell viability of the bystander cells were determined. The results show that the irradiated cells regulate the concentration of the signaling factors released nearby themselves temporally and spatially, and the bystander cells response to the signaling factors differentially according to the concentration change. This work provides new basic data for exploring the bystander effect, especially caused by high LET radiation.     

内质网应激对碳离子辐照宫颈癌HeLa 细胞的影响

利用不同剂量的碳离子辐照二硫苏糖醇(2.5 mmol/L) 预处理的HeLa 细胞,探讨了内质网应激反应对碳离子辐照宫颈癌HeLa 细胞的影响。实验发现:与单独辐照组相比,二硫苏糖醇联合碳离子辐照后细胞的存活率下降,而凋亡率增加;二硫苏糖醇联合碳离子辐照加重了碳离子辐照引起的细胞周期阻滞;且联合辐照组的自噬被明显激活。结果表明,持续的内质网应激可改变宫颈癌HeLa 细胞对碳离子辐照反应,且二硫苏糖醇可能通过影响HeLa 细胞的自噬性细胞死亡通路发挥作用。To investigate the effect of endoplasmic reticulum stress on HeLa cells to 12C6+ ion irradiation,HeLa cells were pretreated with 2.5 mmol/L dithiothreitol and irradiated by 12C6+ ions with different doses.The results showed that, compared with IR alone, dithiothreitol combined with carbon ion irradiation caused HeLa cell survival decreased, and the apoptosis increased. Moreover, dithiothreitol and carbon ion radiation combination treatment led to a significant increase of G2/M phase, and autophagy was activated obviously in combination treatment group. The results imply that continuous endoplasmic reticulum stress can change the response of HeLa cells to 12C6+ irradiation, and dithiothreitol may affect HeLa cells through the autophagy cell death pathway.     

金纳米粒子的放射增敏效应研究

系统阐述了与金纳米粒子(GNPs) 放射增敏效应相关实验的方法与结果、影响GNPs 放射增敏的因素、GNPs 放射增敏的细胞和动物实验表现及其相关机制。同时结合相关实验,分析和比较了15 nm 柠檬酸钠包被的GNPs 的放射增敏效应,发现GNPs 在高LET 的碳离子束和低LET 的X射线辐照下对Hela细胞的杀伤力随其浓度的增加而增大;在50% 的细胞存活率下,当GNPs 的质量浓度为7.5 g/mL时,其X射线的剂量减少率和碳离子的相对生物学效应值(RBE) 的增加率达到了最大,分别为65.3% 和43.6%,同时GNPs 共培养细胞24 和48 h 后,未出现细胞周期同步化的现象。This paper describes the methods and results of the previous experiments, the experimental phenomena of the cell and animal tests and the relative mechanisms on the radiosensitizing effect of GNPs. Together with our experiments, the radiosensitizing effects of 15 nm citrate-capped GNPs and related mechanisms are analyzed and compared, finding that Hela cell killing of GNPs increase along with their concentration after exposure to high- and low-LET radiation such as carbon ions and X-rays. In addition, the percentages of dose reduction of the X-rays and RBE increment of the carbon ions reached their maximums 65.3% and 43.6%, respectively,at 50% survival level when Hela cells were pre-treated with 7.5 g/mL GNPs. Moreover, Hela cells showed no cell-cycle synchronization after 24 and 48 h exposure to GNPs.     

辐照诱导人正常肝细胞系HL-7702 细胞远后的微卫星不稳定性

采用高传能线密度(LET) 的12C6+离子束和低LET 的X 射线辐照人正常肝细胞系HL-7702 细胞,利用微卫星不稳定性(MSI) 检测来分析直接受照射细胞和通过转移培养基方式旁细胞传代八代子细胞以MSI 表征的远后效应。实验结果表明,12C6+离子束诱导的远后效应较X射线的低;旁细胞的远后效应较直接受照射细胞的高;辐射引起的MSI 与杂合性丢失(LOH) 的发生率具有位点特异性。结果提示,重离子放射治疗较X 射线放射治疗对正常组织引发的辐射风险要小,可通过对MSI 高发位点的筛选来评估放疗后患者长期生存状况和二次癌症发生风险。Human normal liver cell line HL-7702 cells were irradiated with high linear energy transfer (LET) 12C6+ ions and low-LET X-rays, respectively. Delayed effect in terms of microsatellite instability (MSI) in progenies of the directly irradiated cells and bystander cells, obtained in the way of medium transfer at the 8th passage postirradiation,were examined. The delayed effect induced by the high-LET 12C6+ ions was different from that induced by the low-LET X-rays, and a higher incidence of MSI was observed in the progenies of the cells after exposure to the X-rays than to the 12C6+ ions. We also found that the delayed effect in the progenies of the bystander cells was much more severe than thoseof directly irradiated cells. Furthermore, the events of MSI and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) induced by the ionizing radiations were not randomly distributed throughout the genome and specific loci existed indeed. These results imply that the radiation risk to normal tissues is lower in heavy ion therapy than in conventional X-ray radiotherapy, and the analysis of microsatellite loci with MSI high frequency occurrence can be applied to access long-term survival condition and second cancer risk for the patients after radiotherapy.     

羧甲基-β-1,3-葡聚糖对人肝癌HepG2细胞的放射增敏作用

本研究旨在探讨羧甲基-β-1,3葡聚糖（CMG）对人肝癌HepG2细胞X射线或12C6+离子束辐射敏感性的影响。首先用CCK-8法检测CMG对HepG2细胞的生长抑制情况,得到半数抑制浓度（IC50）为120.6μg/mL。用浓度为0.1×IC50的CMG预处理HepG2细胞24 h,再给予2 Gy X射线或12C6+离子束辐照（CMG+辐照组）;CMG未处理组直接接受2 Gy X射线或12C6+离子束辐照（辐照组）。对比分析辐照组和CMG+辐照组细胞的克隆存活、DNA损伤、凋亡与周期分布、细胞内活性氧（ROS）水平。发现:与X射线辐照组相比,相同剂量的12C6+离子辐照组克隆存活率更小,DNA损伤和周期阻滞更加严重,细胞凋亡率和细胞内ROS水平也更高。与单独X射线或12C6+离子束辐照组相比,CMG+辐照组克隆存活率明显降低,细胞凋亡率随辐照后CMG作用时间的延长而明显增加,CMG使辐照后细胞内ROS维持在一个较高的水平,同时CMG明显加重了单独辐照诱导的DNA损伤和周期阻滞。结果表明,与X射线相比,HepG2细胞对相同剂量的12C6+离子辐射更敏感;CMG可增加HepG2细胞对X射线或12C6+离子辐射的敏感性;CMG可能通过增加受照HepG2细胞内的ROS水平,加剧辐照诱导的DNA损伤,促进辐射诱导细胞凋亡而起到辐射增敏作用。This study aims to investigate the effect of carboxymethy-β-1, 3-glucan (CMG) on the sensitivity of human hepatoma HepG2 cells to X-rays or 12C6+ ions irradiation. First, the inhibitory effect of CMG on the growth of HepG2 cells was detected by CCK-8 assay, and the half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) was 120.6 μg/mL. HepG2 cells were pretreated with CMG at a concentration of 0.1×IC50 for 24 h and then irradiated with 2 Gy X-ray or 12C6+ ion beams (CMG + irradiation group). CMG untreated group was directly irradiated by 2 Gy X-rays or 12C6+ ions beam (irradiation group). The clone survival, DNA damage, cell apoptosis, cell cycle distribution, and intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels in irradiation group and CMG + irradiation group were comparatively analyzed. The results showed that the clone survival rate was lower, DNA damage and cycle arrest were more serious, and the rate of apoptosis and intracellular ROS levels were higher in 12C6+ ions irradiation group than those in the same dose of X-rays irradiation group. Compared with X-rays or 12C6+ ions irradiation group, the clone survival rate of CMG + irradiation group was significantly decreased, and the apoptosis rate significantly increased with the prolongation of CMG treatment post-irradiation; CMG maintained intracellular ROS at a higher level after irradiation, CMG also significantly aggravated radiation-induced DNA damage and cycle arrest. These results indicated that HepG2 cells were more sensitive to 12C6+ ions radiation than those at the same dose of X-rays. CMG increased the sensitivity of HepG2 cells to X-rays or 12C6+ ions irradiation by increasing intracellular ROS level, exacerbating radiation-induced DNA damage and promoting radiation-induced apoptosis in irradiated HepG2 cells.     

重离子对人胃癌细胞DNA错配修复基因MSH2 表达的影响

采用高传能线密度(LET) 重离子辐照人胃癌SGC7901 细胞,应用流式细胞技术、蛋白质印迹法(Western blot) 及反转录聚合酶链式反应(RT-PCR) 观察重离子诱导人胃癌SGC7901 细胞周期、凋亡和MSH2 表达状况。结果表明: 与对照组相比,SGC7901 细胞在辐射后72 h G2/M 期所占细胞比率(33.26±0.08) 和凋亡率(24.16±0.64) 均达到峰值,且呈时间依赖性增加;经重离子照射后,DNA错配修复基因MSH2 mRNA 和蛋白表达水平在6 h 最高。结果提示:重离子在体外诱导SGC7901 细胞周期阻滞和凋亡,且具有显著的时间依赖性效应;重离子在一定剂量和时间下,诱导了SGC7901 细胞MSH2 基因表达。DNA错配修复基因MSH2 可能参与了重离子辐照诱导胃癌细胞DNA损伤的修复应答。Human gastric cancer cell SGC7901 were irradiated with high linear energy transfer (LET) carbon ion. Apoptotic cells after irradiation were analyzed by flow cytometry and expression of MSH2 genes in the irradiated cells was detected by western blot and RT-PCR assay. Compared with the control group, we found that the number of G2/M (33.26±0.08) or apoptosis (24.16±0.64) of SGC7901 cells reached a maximum after irradiation at 72 h in a dose dependent manner. And heavy ion irradiation efficiently up-regulated the expression of MSH2 gene at 4.0 Gy after being irradiated 6 h. These results imply that heavy ion beam could induce cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in time-dependent manners. Furthermore, expression of MSH2 genes activated by carbon ion irradiation suggests that DNA mismatch repair gene MSH2 might be involved in DNA repair pathways.     

替拉扎明-金纳米粒子复合物对人肝癌HepG2细胞的辐射增敏效应研究

将替拉扎明(TPZ) 与聚乙二醇包被的金纳米粒子(PEG-GNP) 偶联,形成新型替拉扎明-金纳米粒子复合物(TPZ-PEG-GNP)。利用酶标仪获得TPZ-PEG-GNP 在200  800 nm范围内的紫外-可见光吸收光谱;采用电感耦合等离子体质谱(ICP-MS) 检测TPZ-PEG-GNP 在人肝癌HepG2 细胞中的摄取量;MTT法检测TPZ-PEG-GNP 对HepG2 细胞增殖活力的影响;香豆素-3-羧酸(3-CCA) 羟自由基探针检测X 射线和碳离子辐照下TPZ-PEG-GNP 在水中的羟自由基辐射增强效应;克隆形成法检测X 射线及碳离子辐照下TPZ-PEG-GNP 对HepG2 细胞的辐射增敏效应。实验结果表明:TPZ偶联到PEG-GNP 上形成的TPZPEG-GNP 对HepG2 细胞基本无毒;在有氧条件下,TPZ-PEG-GNP 在水中显著增加X射线和碳离子辐照下的羟自由基产额,对HepG2 细胞具有明显的辐射增敏效应;在X 射线及碳离子辐照下10% 存活水平时,TPZ-PEG-GNP 对HepG2 细胞的辐射增敏比分别为1.23 和1.47。

Tirapazamine (TPZ) was conjugated with polyethylene-glycol-coated gold nanoparticles (PEGGNP) to form new tirapazamine-gold nanoparticle compounds (TPZ-PEG-GNP). UV-vis absorption spectrum of TPZ-PEG-GNP at wavelengths from 200 to 800 nm was measured with a microplate reader. The kinetics
of TPZ-PEG-GNP uptake by human hepatoma  HepG2 cells was determined using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). To evaluate the cellular toxicity of TPZ-PEG-GNP, the effect of TPZ-PEG-GNP on HepG2 cell viability was examined by means of the MTT method. Moreover, the radiation enhancement effect of hydroxide radical production in ultra-pure water with TPZ-PEG-GNP exposed to X-rays and carbon ions was investigated using coumarin-3-carboxylic acid (3-CCA) as the free radical probe. More importantly, the radiosensitizing effect of TPZ-PEG-GNP on HepG2 cells irradiated with X-rays and carbon ions was assessed with the clonogenic survival assay. Our experimental results indicate that TPZ-PEG-GNP had nearly no toxicity to HepG2 cells. The yield of hydroxide radicals in ultra-pure water in the presence of TPZ-PEG-GNP after exposure to X-rays and carbon ions increased obviously and an obvious radiosensitizing effect of TPZ-PEG-GNP on HepG2 cells was observed under aerobic conditions. The radiation enhancement ratio of TPZ-PEG-GNP on HepG2 cells exposed to X-rays and carbon ions was 1.23 and 1.47 at 10% survival level.     

P53及其相关蛋白对X射线照射肝癌细胞周期的调节

X射线照射人肝癌细胞HepG2， 照射后细胞存活随照射剂量增大明显下降。 流式细胞术分析， 不同剂量组照射后24 h均发生G2期阻滞。 照射后不同时间组的细胞周期分布也有不同， 照射后12 h， 有显著的S期延迟。 Western Blot 显示照射后24 h P53， MDM2， P21蛋白表达上升， 并有时间效应: P53在照射后24 h之内始终维持较高表达, MDM2和P21分别在照射后6和12 h的表达最高。 X射线照射通过影响P53及其相关蛋白的表达影响细胞周期。 HepG2 cells were irradiated with X ray at the doses of 0, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0 or 8.0 Gy and separately maintained in DMEM at 37 ℃ for 0, 6, 12 or 24 h. Colony forming assay showed that cell survival decreased with the irradiation dose increasing. Cell cycle was detected by FACS, the arrest of S phase was found after 12 h irradiation and arrest of G2 phase took place at 24 h after all irradiation doses, which suggested that cell cycle distribution was different in groups gathered after different maintaining time. The results of Western blotting showed that the expression of P53, MDM2 and P21 increased more after irradiation than the control. The expression of P53 remained high at 24 h after irradiation, while the levels of MDM2 or P21 arrived at the highest at 6 h or 12 h after irradiation respectively. The expressions of P21 after irradiation were in corresponding with the cell cycle distribution in the groups of different maintaining time. In conclusion, irradiation change the distribution of cell cycle by effecting the expression of P53 and its related proteins.     

不同LET碳离子束辐照拟南芥干种子的当代损伤效应

本研究以拟南芥（Columbia野生型）干种子为材料,利用兰州重离子研究装置（HIRFL）产生的碳离子束对材料进行辐射处理,统计其存活率、根长、下胚轴长及每果荚种子数,以探讨不同传能线密度（Linear Energy Transfer,LET）的碳离子束辐照对拟南芥当代损伤效应的影响。结果表明,在相同LET辐射条件下,随着辐射剂量的增大,拟南芥的存活率、根长、下胚轴长度、每果荚种子数都呈现下降趋势。在相同剂量不同LET辐射处理情况下,随着LET的增大,存活率、根长、下胚轴长、每果荚种子数都显著下降,可见高LET辐射严重抑制了拟南芥的生长和发育。研究表明,当LET为50 keV/μm时,碳离子束辐射拟南芥干种子对应的最佳诱变剂量为200 Gy,为后续开展碳离子束辐射的诱变效率研究奠定了前期基础。Aimed to study the biological effects of carbon ion beams with different linear energy transfer (LET) values provided by Heavy Ion Research Facility in Lanzhou (HIRFL), dry seeds of Arabidopsis thaliana (Columbia-WT) were irradiated and a series of biological effects of postembryonic development, such as survival rate, primary root length, hypocotyls length and number of seeds per silique, were investigated. The results showed that, under the radiation condition of the same LET value, the survival rate, root length, hypocotyls length and number of seeds per silique were decreased with the increasing dose. In addition, under the radiation conditions with different LET values, but same dose, the extent of the decline of the survival rate, root length, hypocotyls length and number of seeds per silique were reinforced with the increasing LET. It was also found that high LET radiations inhibited the subsequent growth and development of Arabidopsis thaliana severely. In brief, it was suggested that the optimum dose of carbon ion beam with 50 keV/μm value on Arabidopsis thaliana dry seeds was 200 Gy. This research complemented the preliminary theoretical foundation for the comparative study of the highest mutation efficiency of carbon ion beam irradiations at IMP, CAS(Institute of Modern Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences).

Spatial and temporal distribution of γH2AX fluorescence in human cell cultures following synchrotron‐generated X‐ray microbeams: lack of correlation between persistent γH2AX foci and apoptosis

Formation of γH2AX foci (a marker of DNA double‐strand breaks), rates of foci clearance and apoptosis were investigated in cultured normal human fibroblasts and p53 wild‐type malignant glioma cells after exposure to high‐dose synchrotron‐generated microbeams. Doses up to 283 Gy were delivered using beam geometries that included a microbeam array (50 µm wide, 400 µm spacing), single microbeams (60–570 µm wide) and a broad beam (32 mm wide). The two cell types exhibited similar trends with respect to the initial formation and time‐dependent clearance of γH2AX foci after irradiation. High levels of γH2AX foci persisted as late as 72 h post‐irradiation in the majority of cells within cultures of both cell types. Levels of persistent foci after irradiation via the 570 µm microbeam or broad beam were higher when compared with those observed after exposure to the 60 µm microbeam or microbeam array. Despite persistence of γH2AX foci, these irradiation conditions triggered apoptosis in only a small proportion (<5%) of cells within cultures of both cell types. These results contribute to the understanding of the fundamental biological consequences of high‐dose microbeam irradiations, and implicate the importance of non‐apoptotic responses such as p53‐mediated growth arrest (premature senescence).     

氧化钆纳米粒子对A549肺癌细胞的辐射增敏效应研究

采用氧化钆纳米粒子（GON）,研究钆基纳米粒子对X射线和碳离子束的辐射增敏效应。首先,通过透射电镜观察材料粒径,使用DLS检测材料的水合半径及Zeta电位,并用紫外吸收谱证实GON在培养基中稳定性较好;研究发现钆（Gd）浓度为10.0 μg/mL的GON对30 keV/μm碳离子束辐照水溶液产生的羟自由基的增强系数为1.13;GON对A549肺癌细胞和正常MRC-5肺细胞没有明显的毒性,且在人肺癌A549细胞中的摄取量随共培养浓度的增加而增加,在10.0 μg/mL共培养浓度下,细胞摄入Gd的量为0.73 pg/cell;进一步采用克隆存活实验证明,GON的加入对X射线和碳离子辐照A549细胞所产生的损伤具有明显的增强,在10%的细胞存活水平下,GON对A549细胞在X射线及碳离子辐照下的辐射增敏分别达15.5%和10.1%。鉴于钆材料常被用于磁共振成像（MRI）,所获得的GON有望作为X射线和碳离子的诊疗一体化材料。     

灵芝酸A对人肝癌细胞的辐射增敏效应的初步研究

本研究旨在初步探讨灵芝酸A(GAA)对人肝癌细胞系HepG2在高LET中子和低LET的γ射线条件下的辐射敏感性的影响及差异。研究中,我们用CCK-8方法检测不同浓度GAA对HepG2增殖抑制作用。选取低浓度(5μmol/L)GAA预处理细胞24 h,分别给予不同剂量的中子辐照或γ射线辐照,分别检测克隆存活率、细胞凋亡和γH2AX蛋白的foci的形成。结果表明:在不加GAA的情况下,高LET中子辐射比低LET的γ射线对细胞产生的凋亡比例高;在添加了GAA后,与未加GAA对照组相比,诱导细胞凋亡的比例明显增加;另外,加GAA处理后,细胞增殖抑制率也随着辐照剂量的增加而增高。即GAA能增加HepG2细胞的辐射敏感性,而在同样GAA剂量下,HepG2细胞对高LET中子辐射比低LET的γ射线更敏感。由此,这项研究说明灵芝酸或可开发成为一种天然辐射增敏剂,从而为癌症特别是肝癌的放疗提供新的辅助治疗方法。     

甲基化抑制剂5-氮杂2′-脱氧胞苷对三维培养A549细胞辐射敏感性的影响

为探讨DNA去甲基化试剂5-氮杂-2′-脱氧胞苷(5-aza-2′-deoxycytidine,5-Aza-CdR)对三维(3D)培养模式下的肺腺癌细胞A549辐射敏感性的作用,开展了系列实验。使用不同浓度5-Aza-CdR处理单层(2D)A549细胞72 h后,MTT法检测其对A549细胞的增殖抑制作用。选取低浓度(2,5μmol/L)5-Aza-CdR预处理2D和3D培养的A549细胞72 h,X射线分别辐照1,2,4,6 Gy,检测微核形成率和克隆存活。实验结果显示,不同浓度的5-Aza-CdR均能抑制2D的A549细胞增殖,且呈剂量依赖性。5μmol/L药物预处理2D与3D细胞并联合辐照后诱导的细胞微核形成率均显著高于相应的对照组,并且细胞存活率显著降低。不过,较低浓度5-Aza-CdR(2μmol/L)预处理的3D培养A549细胞4,6 Gy辐照后微核数目较未用药处理组显著增加,克隆存活率较未用药组显著降低(P0.05),而在2D培养A549细胞中未观测到上述现象。研究结果表明,5-Aza-CdR能抑制A549细胞增殖,3D培养A549细胞药物预处理更能增加其辐射敏感性。结果暗示,为减少对正常细胞的毒性作用,在临床放疗中,可低剂量使用5-Aza-CdR,实现肿瘤的有效靶向治疗。
