Abstract:: |
Objective To investigate the effect of ionizing radia tion on the expressions of p16,CyclinD1 and CDK4 in thymocytes and splenocytes o f mice. Methods Fluorescent staining and flow cytometric analysis were employed for measurement of protein expressions. Results It was found in time course experiments that the expression of p16 protein incre ased significantly at 8,24 and 48 h in thymocytes (P<0.05,P<0.01 and P<0.05, respectively) and at 24 h in splenocytes (P<0.05) after whol e-body irradiation (WBI) with 2.0 Gy X-rays.However,the expression of CDK4 pr otein decreased significantly from 8 to 24 h in thymocytes (P<0.05-P<0.01) and from 8 to 72 h in splenocytes (P<0.05-P<0.01).In dose-effe ct experiments,it was found that the expression of p16 protein in thymocytes and splenocytes increased significantly at 24 h after WBI with the doses of 1.0,2.0 and 4.0 Gy(P<0.05-P<0.01),whereas the expression of CDK4 protein decreased significantly with the dose of 2.0 Gy for thymocytes (P<0.05) a nd with the doses from 0.5 to 6.0 Gy for splenocytes (P<0.05-P<0.01 ).The expression of CyclinD1 protein decreased markedly in both thymocytes and s plenocytes after exposure. Conclusion The results indicate that th e expression of p16 protein in thymocytes and splenocytes could be induced by io nizing radiation,and the p16-CyclinD1/CDK4 pathway might play an important role for G1 arrest of thymocytes induced by X-rays. |
