Metadherin regulates radioresistance in cervical cancer cells.

چکیده
Metadherin (MTDH) promotes cancer metastasis, chemoresistance, invasion and angiogenesis. Upregulation of MTDH is correlated with both progression and poor clinical outcome of many types of cancers; however, there is currently no information regarding the role of MTDH in radiation sensitivity. Here, we investigated the effects of MTDH on the radiosensitivity of cervical cancer cells using the SiHa cell line. We discovered that cervical cancer cells in which MTDH was knocked down had significantly increased radiosensitivity as measured by a clonogenic assay. MTDH knockdown cells also had increased apoptosis and a decreased proportion of cells arrested in the G2 phase after radiation treatment. MTDH knockdown also weakened the repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) induced by radiation. These results indicate that MTDH affects the radiosensitivity of cervical cancer cells and that MTDH may be a novel target to improve cervical cancer radiation response.

Twist1 Enhances Hypoxia Induced Radioresistance in Cervical Cancer Cells by Promoting Nuclear EGFR Localization
Twist1 is a crucial transcription factor that regulates epithelial mesenchymal transition and involves in metastasis. Recent evidence suggests that Twist1 plays important role in hypoxia-induced radioresistance, but the underlying mechanism remains elusive. Here we investigated the change of Twist1 expression in human cervical squamous cancer cell line SiHa after hypoxia treatment. We also expl...
متن کاملMicroRNA-320 regulates the radiosensitivity of cervical cancer cells C33AR by targeting β-catenin
Cervical cancer is the second most common malignancy in women worldwide and always has recurrence owing to radioresistance. MicroRNA (miRNA or miR) has been identified to relate to the sensitivity of cancer radiotherapy. Here, we investigated the potential of miRNA-320 as a biomarker for radiosensitivity by targeting β-catenin in cervical cancer. A radioresistant cervical cancer cell line, C33A...
متن کاملCancer Stem Cells and Radioresistance: Rho/ROCK Pathway Plea Attention
Radiation is the most potent mode of cancer therapy; however, resistance to radiation therapy results in tumor relapse and subsequent fatality. The cancer stem cell (CSC), which has better DNA repair capability, has been shown to contribute to tumor resistance and is an important target for treatment. Signaling molecules such as Notch, Wnt, and DNA repair pathways regulate molecular mechanisms ...
متن کاملATM induces radioresistance of non-small cell lung cancer A549 cells by downregulation of MDMX
Background: Tumor radioresistance leads to a reduction in the efficiency of radiation therapy. It is very important to explore the cellular mechanisms leading to radioresistance and to find potential therapeutic targets, which might improve the efficacy of radiation therapy. This study was to investigate the role of ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) and murine double minute X (MDMX) in radior...

Radioresistance represents a major obstacle in cancer treatment, the underlying mechanism of which is complex and not well understood. miR-148b has been reported to be implicated regulating radioresistance in lymphoma cells. However, this function has not been investigated in lung cancer cells. Microarray analysis was performed in A549 cells 48 h after exposure to 8 Gy of γ-irradiation or sham ...
