Objective To investigate the effect of Tip60 on the cellular radiosensitivity,and to explore the related mechanism.Methods siRNA and anacardic acid (AA,an inhibitor of Tip60 acetyltransferase) were used to inhibit Tip60 expression and its acetyltransferase activity,respectively.Radiosensitivity was analyzed by colony-forming ability assay.γ-H2AX foci were detected to analyze the DNA double-strand break (DSB).Immunoprecipitation was used to determine the interaction of proteins.Results siRNA-mediated silencing of Tip60 led to enhanced sensitivity of U2OS cells at 1,2 Gy after γ-ray irradiation,but had no significant effect at 4 Gy post-irradiation ( t =3.364,3.979,P < 0.05 ).γ-H2AX foci detection indicated that Tip60 silencing resulted in a decreased capability of DNA doublestrand break repair at 1,4 and 8 h after irradiation( t =3.875,3.183 and 3.175,respectively,P < 0.05 ).The interaction of Tip60 and DNA-PKcs was prompted by ionizing radiation.Anacardic acid largely abrogated the phosphorylation of DNA-PKcs at T2609 site induced by irradiation.Conclusions Tip60plays a role in the cellular response to ionizing radiation-induced DNA damage through,at least in part,interacting with DNA-PKcs and regulating its phosphorylation.

The present study was undertaken by radioligand binding assay to compare the binding properties of U72099E to cytosol and synaptic plasma membrane (SPM)preparations of rat brain. The results showed that the binding of [3H]Glucocorticoids ([3H]GC) was not displaced by U72099E in cytosol but was displaced in SPM with a Ki of 32.2?1.7?mol/L-1,indicating the existence of binding sites for U72099E in plasma membrane (most probably being glucocorticoid membrane receptors, GCMR). The Ki of U72099E is close to the concentrations needed to mimic the actions of it to protect against brain injury, suggesting that GCMR may mediate the beneficial effect of U72099E.
