Abstract:: |
Objective To investigate the efficiency of γ-ray-induced DNA DSB rejoining and the mRNA expression of DNA repair genes in malignantly transformed cell lines of human bronchial epithelial cells generated by exposure to α-particles. Methods Pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) was used to detect DNA.DSBs mRNA expression was analyzed by RT-PCR. Results The residual DNA DSB damage level after 4hrs repair following 0-150 Gy of γ-irradiation in the malignantly transformed cell lines BERP35T-1 and BERP35T-4 was significantly higher than that in their parental BEP2D cells.The analysis of mRNA level revealed a 2.5-to 6.5-fold down-regulated expression of the DNA repair genes XRCC-2,XRCC-3 and Ku80(XRCC-5) in BERP35T-1 and BERP35T-4 cells as compared with the parental BEP2D cells.In contrast,the expression of DNA-PKcs(XRCC7) was 2.4-fold up-regulated in the transformed cell line BERP35T-4,in which there was a significantly higher pro-portion of polyloid cells. Conclusion This study results show that the deficiency of DNA DSB rejoining and depressed mRNA expression of DNA repair genes could be involved in the malignant transformation process of BEP2D cells induced by exposure to α-particles. ; |
