Abstract:
Objective Apuinic/apyrimidic endonuclease/redox effector factor-1(APE1/Ref-1,abbreviated as APE1) is a major member of the base excision repair(BER) pathway involved in oxidative DNA damage repair.To knock down APE1 gene expression in HOS cells with pSilence APE1,and explore its effect in combination with 252Cf neutron ray radiotherapy.Methods The constructed APE1 siRNA expression vector pSilence APE1 was transfected into HOS cells by SuperFect Transfection liposome,and it was used to knock down the expression of APE1.The HOS cells and transfected HOS cells were respectively irradiated by 252Cf neutron ray,then the cell survival(D0),DNA single strand breaks(SSB) and cell apoptosis were determined by clone formation assay,alkaline comet assay and flow cytometer.Results The cell-survival curve was plotted by clone formation assay,the D0 value was 2.80 vs.1.89 and Dq value was 2.66 vs.2.00 for the control and transfected HOS cells,respectively,after being irradiated by 252Cf neutron ray.The tail moments at 2,5 and 10 Gy were 6.664?0.648 vs.7.997?0.542,20.322?1.433 vs.25.238?1.185 and 33.909?1.245 vs.39.191?1.052,respectively,for the control and transfected HOS cells,and the cell apoptosis rate at 2,5 and 10 Gy was 4.00 vs.5.68,5.91 vs.7.55 and 9.63 vs.13.51,respectively,for the control and transfected HOS cells.All these findings showed significant difference between the two groups(P
