Abstract:: |
Objective To explore the effects of low-dose radiation on tumor-bearing mice and radiotherapy induced by low-dose radiation.Methods Male Wistar mice were implanted with Walker-256 sarcoma cells in the right armpit.On day 4,the mice were given 75 mGy whole_body X-ray radiation. From the fifth day, tumor volume was measured, allowing for the creation of a graph depicting tumor growth. Lymphocytes activity in mice after whole-body X-ray radiation with LDR was determinned by FCM. Cytokines level were also determined by ELISA.Results Compared with the radiotherapy group, tumor growth was significantly slower in the mice pre-exposed to low-dose radiation (P<0.05),after 15 days,the average tumor weight in the mice pre-exposed to low-dose radiation was also significantly lower(P<0.05). Lymphocytes activity and the expression of the CK in mice after whole-body γ-ray radiation with LDR increased significantly.Conclusions Low-dose radiation can markedly improve the immune function of the lymphocyte, inhibit the tumor growth, increase the resistant of the high-dose radiotherapy and enhance the effect of radiotherapy. |
