Abstract:
Objective To investigate the mechanism of radiosensitization by cetuximab (C225) on human tongue cancer Tca8113 cell line in vitro.Methods Tca8113 cell line with and without C225 treatment received 6 MV X-ray irradiation of different doses (0, 2,4,6, 8 and 10 Gy). Cell proliferation,cell-cycle distribution and clonogenic survival were analyzed through cell counting,MTT,colony formation assay,and flow cytometry,respectively.Results After irradiation of different doses,the growth inhibition rates in C225 group were higher than control (t =- 15.6 - -3.0,P＜0.05),the radiobiological parameters (D0,Dq,N,and SF2 ) in C225 group were lower than control so that SER of C225 group was 1.353,and the proportions of G0/G1 cells in C225 group were higher than control ( t =-7.64,-7.89,-4.78,P ＜0.05 ) at 4,6,8 Gy.When the irradiation doses increased,the early phase apoptosis in both groups increased at first and then decreased with the maximum difference at 4 Gy [(7.96±0.36)％ in C225 group and (4.13 ±0.29)％ in control group,t =-12.75,P＜0.01 ].Conclusions C225 has radiosensitization effect on Tca8113 cell line,possible through Go/G1 arrest and induction of apoptosia.
