Abstract:: |
Objective To investigate the relationship between the effect of unmethylated cytosine-phosphate-guanine oligodeoxynucleotide(CpG ODN)7909 on X-ray-induced G2/M phase arrest and apoptosis and the phosphorylation of ATM kinase.Methods Human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells were randomly classified into five groups, control, CpG group, irradiation group, CpG + irradiation group and ATM siRNA + CpG + irradiation group. Cell survival fraction was evaluated by clonogenic assay. Cell cycle and apoptosis were analyzed by flow cytometry. The expressions of ATM, checkpoint kinase-2 (Chk2) and p53 were detected with Western blot.Results Compared to the situation under X-ray irradiation alone, decreased cell clonogenic survival, prolonged G2/M arrest, and increased cell apoptosis were observed after the combination treatment with CpG ODN7909 and X-rays (t=13.41,17.32 and 7.71,P<0.05). Moreover, the phosphorylations on ATM, Chk2, and p53 were increased in the irradiated A549 cells that had been pre-treated with CpG ODN7909. After ATM siRNA interfering, abrogation of G2/M arrest, reduction of apoptosis, and decrease of Chk2 and p53 phosphorylation were found in A549 cells treated with CpG ODN7909 and X-rays (t=26.84,2.98,47.24 and 67.47,P<0.05). Conclusions CpG ODN7909 can enhance the X-ray-induced phosphorylation of ATM kinase in human lung adenocarcinoma cells in vitro, which might be involved in regulating G2/M phase arrest and apoptosis. |
