Radiosensitivity of quiescent and proliferating cells grown as multicellular tumor spheroids
The multicellular spheroid model partly mimics tumor microenvironments in vivo and has been reported in plenty of studies regarding radiosensitivity. However, clear isolation of quiescent and proliferating cells in live conditions has been quite difficult owing to technical limitations; therefore, comprehensive characterization could not be done thus far. In this study, we succeeded in separate...
متن کاملDihydroartemisinin increases radiosensitivity of A549 lung cancer cells
Background: Radiotherapy is the gold standard in the treatment of lung cancer. However, the radiosensitization of cancerous cells requires further improvement. Here, we investigated the effect of dihydroartemisinin (DHA) on the radiosensitization of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells. Methods: Cell proliferation and cell cycle assays were carried out using A549 cells exposed to DHA. The e...
متن کاملApoptotic Radiosensitivity of Cervical Tumor Cells Enhanced by Ellagic Acid
Cancer is a multifactorial disease that in many cases requires multimodal treatment involving combination of conventional chemo and radiotherapy. Radiotherapy kills cancer cells and normal cells equally which imposes limitation to cancer treatment. Failure of cancer treatment in clinic by radio/chemotherapy is generally attributed to resistance of tumor.Therefore it is essential to develop stra...
متن کاملThe degree of pigmentation modulates the radiosensitivity of human melanoma cells.
The relationship between cell pigmentation and radiosensitivity was investigated in two selected human melanoma cell lines with different melanin content (mixed type: eumelanin and pheomelanin, and pheomelanotic phenotypes). The same study was also done after stimulation of melanogenesis (1) by addition of the melanin precursor l-tyrosine to each of the cell lines separately and (2) by irradiat...
متن کاملCalreticulin, a molecular chaperone in the endoplasmic reticulum, modulates radiosensitivity of human glioblastoma U251MG cells.
Radiotherapy is the primary and most important adjuvant therapy for malignant gliomas. Although the mechanism of radiation resistance in gliomas has been studied for decades, it is still not clear how the resistance is related with functions of molecular chaperones in the endoplasmic reticulum. Calreticulin (CRT) is a Ca(2+)-binding molecular chaperone in the endoplasmic reticulum. Recently, it...
