| Abstract:: |
| Objective To explore whether CD44+/CD24+ expressing cervical cancer cells are resistant to X-ray irradiation and investigate the underlying mechanism. Methods Cervical cancer cell line (Siha) was cultured in vitro and the CD44+/CD24+ expressing cells were sorted with a flow cytometer. The cells were irradiated with 8, 16 and 30 Gy of 6 MV X-rays. Colony formation test was used to evaluate the radiosensitivity of CD44+/CD24+ expressing cervical cancer cells. Cell morphology was observed by electronmicroscopy, cell apoptosis was analyzed with a flow cytometer and also verified with a DNA "ladder" assay. Gene expression was determined by RT-PCR. Results After radiation, the ratio of CD44+/CD24+ cells significantly increased. Compared to Siha cells, the radiosensitivity of CD44+/CD24+ cells decreased (t=93.99-400.45, P<0.05), and the expressions of bcl-2, survivin and Oct4 mRNA increased in CD44+/CD24+ cells (t=221.35, 941.65, 82.27, P<0.01). Both apoptotic body and specific DNA "ladder" pattern were observed in cells but not in the CD44+/CD24+ Sihacells which had no obvious morphological changes of apoptosis. Conclusions The CD44+/CD24+ expressing cervical cancer cells are resistant to X-rays due to expression of anti-apoptosis factors. |
