Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of radiosensitivity enhancement and inhibition of migration ability of human lung adenocarcinoma cells by celecoxib,a selective cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitor.Methods Human lung adenocarcinoma cells of the line A549 were cultured and then inoculated into six-well plates and randomly divided into 4 groups:control group,celecoxib group administered with celecoxib at the subtoxic doses 30 and 50 μmol/L,irradiated group exposed to 0,1,2,4,6,or 8 Gy by linear accelerator,and combined treatment (celecoxib + irradiation) group.The radiosensitizing effect of celecoxib was assessed by clonogenic cell survival test.The migration ability of the A549 cells was measured by scratch-wound test and the content of metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) in culture supernatant was detected with ELISA.Results The sensitization enhancement ratio of the celexib group was increased dosedependently.The values of D0 ,Dq,SF2 and D0.01 of the celecoxib + irradiation group were all significantly lower than those of the irradiated group.Scratch-wound test showed that the no-scratch area of the celecoxib + irradiation group and celecoxib group were all significantly wider than those of the mere irradiation and control groups and there was a dose-dependent manner,and the no-scratch area of the celecoxib + irradiation group was wlider than that of the celecoxib group.ELISA showed that the MMP-2 levels in the supernatant of the celecoxib group and celecoxib + irradiation group were respectively significantly lower than those of the control group and mere irradiated group (t = 3.78,5.79、3.15,P < 0.05),however,there was not significant difference between the mere irradiation and control groups (t = 2.73,2.38,P > 0.05).Conclusions Celecoxib enhances concentration-dependently the radiosensitivity of human lung carcinoma cell and inhibits the secretion of MMP-2 of the carcinoma cells,thus inhibiting their migration ability.
