Induction of adaptive response by low-dose radiation in RIF cells transfected with Hspb1 (Hsp25) or inducible Hspa (Hsp70) 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
An adaptive response results in a reduced effect of a high challenging dose of a stressor after a smaller, inducing dose has been applied a few hours earlier. Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma (RIF) cells did not show an adaptive response, i.e. a reduced effect from a high challenging dose (2 Gy) of a radiation after a priming dose (1 cGy) had been applied 4 or 7 h earlier, but cells of a thermoresistant clone (TR) derived from RIF cells did. Since the expression of inducible Hspa (also known as Hsp70) and Hspb1 (also known as Hsp25) was different in these two cell lines, the role of inducible Hspa and Hspb1 in the adaptive response was examined. When RIF cells were transfected with inducible Hspa or Hspb1, both radioresistance measured by clonogenic assays and a reduction of apoptosis were detected. The adaptive response was also acquired by these two cell lines. The inducible Hspa transfectant showed a more pronounced adaptive response than the Hspb1 transfectant. Based on these results, it appears that inducible Hspa and Hspb1 are at least partly responsible for the induction of the adaptive response in these cells. Moreover, when inducible Hspa or Hspb1 was transfected into RIF cells, co-regulation of the two genes was detected. Heat-shock factor (Hsf) was found to be at least partially responsible for the induction of the adaptive response in these cells. 相似文献

The adaptive response is an important phenomenon in radiobiology. A study of the conditions essential for the induction of an adaptive response is of critical importance to understanding the novel biological defense mechanisms against the hazardous effects of radiation. In our previous studies, the specific dose and timing of radiation for induction of an adaptive response were studied in ICR mouse fetuses. We found that exposure of the fetuses on embryonic day 11 to a priming dose of 0.3 Gy significantly suppressed prenatal death and malformation induced by a challenging dose of radiation on embryonic day 12. Since a significant dose-rate effect has been observed in a variety of radiobiological phenomena, the effect of dose rate on the effectiveness of induction of an adaptive response by a priming dose of 0.3 Gy administered to fetuses on embryonic day 11 was investigated over the range from 0.06 to 5.0 Gy/min. The occurrence of apoptosis in limb buds, incidences of prenatal death and digital defects, and postnatal mortality induced by a challenging dose of 3.5 Gy given at 1.8 Gy/min to the fetuses on embryonic day 12 were the biological end points examined. Unexpectedly, effective induction of an adaptive response was observed within two dose-rate ranges for the same dose of priming radiation, from 0.18 to 0.98 Gy/ min and from 3.5 to 4.6 Gy/min, for reduction of the detrimental effect induced by a challenging dose of 3.5 Gy. In contrast, when the priming irradiation was delivered at a dose rate outside these two ranges, no protective effect was observed, and at some dose rates elevation of detrimental effects was observed. In general, neither a normal nor a reverse dose- rate effect was found in the dose-rate range tested. These results clearly indicated that the dose rate at which the priming irradiation was delivered played a crucial role in the induction of an adaptive response. This paper provides the first evidence for the existence of two dose-rate ranges for the same dose of priming radiation to successfully induce an adaptive response in mouse fetuses. 相似文献

Although the importance of radiation-induced adaptive response has been recognized in human health, risk assessment and clinical
application, the phenomenon has not been understood well in terms of survival of animals. To examine this aspect Swiss albino
mice were irradiated with different doses (2–10 Gy) at 0015 Gy/s dose rate and observed on a regular basis for 30 days. Since
almost 50% lethality was seen with 8 Gy, it was selected as the challenging dose for further studies. Irradiation of mice
with conditioning doses (0.25 or 0.5 Gy) and subsequent exposure to 8 Gy caused significant increase in the survival of mice
compared to irradiated control. The splitting of challenging dose did not influence the efficiency of conditioning doses (0.25
Gy and 0.5 Gy) to induce an adaptive response. However conditioning doses given in fractions (0.25 Gy + 0.25 Gy) or (0.5 Gy
+ 0.5 Gy) were able to modulate the response of challenging dose of 8 Gy. These results clearly showed the occurrence of adaptive
response in terms of survival of animals. The conditioning dose given in small fractions seemed to be more effective. The
findings have been discussed from a mechanistic point of view. The possible biological implications, potential medical benefits,
uncertainties and controversies related to adaptive response have also been addressed 相似文献

Park, S-H., Lee, S-J., Chung, H-Y., Kim, T-H., Cho, C-K., Yoo, S-Y. and Lee, Y-S. Inducible Heat-Shock Protein 70 Is Involved in the Radioadaptive Response. The thermoresistant (TR) clone of radiation-induced fibrosarcoma (RIF) cells showed an adaptive response, i.e. a reduced effect, after exposure to a higher challenging dose (4 Gy) when the priming dose (1 cGy) was given 4 or 7 h earlier, but RIF cells did not. Since inducible Hsp70 expression was different in cells of these two cell lines, the role of inducible Hsp70 in the adaptive response was examined. When inducible Hsp70 was transfected into RIF cells, the adaptive response was acquired. Transfection of inducible Hsp70 to NIH 3T3 mouse embryo cells also conferred radioresistance to the cells as assayed by clonogenic survival, [(3)H]thymidine incorporation, and an ELISA cell death detection kit. An increased tendency for the induction of an adaptive response was also observed. Interestingly, basal levels of Ca(2+)-dependent and independent Pkc activities were increased by transfection with inducible Hsp70 compared to those of control vector cells. Irradiation with gamma rays induced activation of Pkc within minutes in control vector cells, while transfection with inducible Hsp70 did not. Cellular redistribution to particulate fractions of Pkca, d and z after exposure gamma rays also was not detected. Furthermore, radioresistance by transfection with inducible Hsp70, as tested by clonogenic survival, disappeared after pretreatment with Pkc inhibitors, 1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H7), prolonged treatment with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), and GF109203X. Taken together, these data suggest that radioresistance inducible by Hsp70 is associated with an elevated level of Pkc activity. 相似文献

Interaction between radiation-induced adaptive response and bystander mutagenesis in mammalian cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Two conflicting phenomena, the bystander effect and the adaptive response, are important in determining biological responses at low doses of radiation and have the potential to have an impact on the shape of the dose-response relationship. Using the Columbia University charged-particle microbeam and the highly sensitive AL cell mutagenic assay, we reported previously that nonirradiated cells acquired mutagenesis through direct contact with cells whose nuclei had previously been traversed with either a single or 20 alpha particles each. Here we show that pretreatment of cells with a low dose of X rays 4 h before alpha-particle irradiation significantly decreased this bystander mutagenic response. Furthermore, bystander cells showed an increase in sensitivity after a subsequent challenging dose of X rays. Results from the present study address some of the pressing issues regarding both the actual target size and the radiation dose response and can improve on our current understanding of radiation risk assessment. 相似文献

Whether natural radiation can be a conditioning factor for the growth and survival of a living organism was investigated using diploid yeast S. cerevisiae D7. Yeast cells were conditioned by growing them continuously for at least 100 generation in 3 different radiation background such as i) ambient radiation (1.1 mSv/y), ii) sub-ambient radiation (0.44 mSv/y, within a shielded chamber) and iii) an elevated background radiation (88 and 880 mSv/y in a gamma-field). At the end, the cells were challenged with 60Co gamma, 100 Gy and the viable fractions were determined. Conditioning the cells in 880 mSv/y and in ambient radiation, enabled the cells to reduce the deleterious effect of the challenging dose significantly (P < 0.05) compared to that of sub-ambient radiation. The cellular viability of yeast cultures seems to be influenced by the prevailing radiation background, apart from starvation. Comparatively, a rapid decline in viability was noticed when the cultures were incubated for 60 days in the shielded chamber. The results indicate that some amount of radiation equivalent to background level or little above is needed to confer fitness in biological systems against stress factors, including radiation. The adaptive dose for the diploid yeast was also determined by single exposure. The priming dose ranged from 0.01 to 1.2 Gy. An adaptive dose of 0.25 or 0.4 Gy, almost nullified the deleterious effect of the challenging dose. The adaptive response may have a greater role in the field of cancer therapy and in radiation risk assessment. Understanding the response of an organism at different radiation-background will be helpful for successful space management. 相似文献

The results of numerous studies indicate that cells can become refractory to the detrimental effect of ionizing radiation when previously exposed to a low, “adapting dose”;. This phenomenon has been termed an “adaptive response”; to ionizing radiation. It has been postulated that the induced radioresistance is due to the induction of DNA repair systems which efficiently protect the adapted cells from the effects of a subsequent, high “challenging dose”;. However, a direct proof of this hypothesis is still lacking. The analyzed endpoints include chromosomal aberrations, survival, mutations, genetic instability and DNA damage repair measured by the comet assay. Frequently contradictory results were published by different authors. For example some authors observed a reduced frequency of apoptosis in adapted cells, whereas others reported the opposite. The source of variablity of the adaptive response in human lymphocytes remains unresolved. While there is no doubt that an adapting dose can trigger some protecting mechanisms within the cell it appears that there is no single, universal mechanism of the adaptive response that is valid for all cell types and irradiation conditions. 相似文献

In an attempt to identify mechanisms of adaptive response to adriamycin (ADR), we have earlier isolated ADR-resistant cell lines CHO/R and ME18/R by short-term pulse exposures of parent cell lines to this drug, followed by single-cell cloning. The results presented in this study have shown that the development of resistance to ADR was accompanied by cross-resistance to vinblastine and methotrexate. The resistance of tested cell lines towards ADR was substantially reversed by verapamil (VPL) at non-toxic concentrations. VPL abolished also the capability of these cell lines to express adaptive response after treatment of the cells with a conditioning dose of ADR. From the results of our study, we conclude that similar characteristics play a role in the mechanism of the phenomenon of adaptive response as in the mechanism of pleiotropic multidrug resistance. 相似文献

低水平辐射诱导的细胞遗传学适应性反应 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
先用0.01GY x-射线(剂量率:0.01GY/分)体外照射人、兔外周血,经不同时间后再用1.5GY X-射线(0.44GY/分)照射,发现在G_0、G_1、S和G_2期受0.01GY X-射线照射后再给大剂量照射者,其染色体畸变率明显低于单纯受1.5GY X-射线照射组(P<0.01)。这一适应性反应能持续3个细胞周期,在接受小剂量照射后超过3个细胞周期再受大剂量照射者,染色体畸变率未见减少。若在第三细胞周期以后再次给予小剂量照射,可再次诱导适应性反应。用小鼠整体小剂量照射后骨髓细胞和生殖细胞亦出现这种适应性反应。另外也探讨了不同剂量和不同剂量率的预先照射对适应性反应的影响。 相似文献

The controversial use of a linear, no threshold extrapolation model for low dose risk assessment has become even more so in light of the recent reports on the bystander phenomenon. The answer to the question as to which of the two phenomena, bystander versus adaptive response, is more important has practical implication in terms of low dose radiation risk assessment. In this review, genotoxicity is used as an endpoint to introduce the two phenomena, provide some insight into the mechanisms of bystander effect and to bridge the two low dose phenomena which operate in opposite directions: the bystander effect tends to exaggerate the effect at low doses, by communicating damage from hit to non-hit cells whereas the adaptive response confers resistance to a subsequent challenging dose by an initial low priming dose. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate whether exposure of HPV-G cells to irradiated cell conditioned medium (ICCM) could induce an adaptive response if the cells were subsequently challenged with a higher ICCM dose. Clonogenic survival and major steps in the cascade leading to apoptosis, such as calcium influx and loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, were examined to determine whether these events could be modified by giving a priming dose of ICCM before the challenge dose. Clonogenic survival data indicated an ICCM-induced adaptive response in HPV-G cells "primed" with 5 mGy or 0.5 Gy ICCM for 24 h and then exposed to 0.5 Gy or 5 Gy ICCM. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) were found to be involved in the bystander-induced cell death. Calcium fluxes varied in magnitude across the exposed cell population, and a significant number of the primed HPV-G cells did not respond to the challenge ICCM dose. No significant loss of mitochondrial membrane potential was observed when HPV-G cells were exposed to 0.5 Gy ICCM for 24 h followed by exposure to 5 Gy ICCM for 6 h. Exposure of HPV-G cells to 5 mGy ICCM for 24 h followed by exposure to 0.5 Gy ICCM for 18 h caused a significant increase in mitochondrial mass and a change in mitochondrial location, events associated with the perpetuation of genomic instability. This study has shown that a priming dose of ICCM has the ability to induce an adaptive response in HPV-G cells subsequently exposed to a challenge dose of ICCM. 相似文献

The ability of cells to adapt low-dose or low-dose rate radiation is well known. High-LET radiation has unique characteristics, and the data concerning low doses effects and high-LET radiation remain fragmented. In this study, we assessed in vitro the ability of low doses of X-rays to induce an adaptive response (AR) to a subsequent challenging dose of heavy-ion radiation. Lymphoblastoid cells (TK6, AHH-1, NH32) were exposed to priming 0.02-0.1Gy X-rays, followed 6h later by challenging 1Gy heavy-ion radiation (carbon-ion: 20 and 40keV/μm, neon-ion: 150keV/μm). Pre-exposure of p53-competent cells resulted in decreased mutation frequencies at hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl transferase locus and different H2AX phosphorylation kinetics, as compared to cells exposed to challenging radiation alone. This phenomenon did not seem to be linked with cell cycle effects or radiation-induced apoptosis. Taken together, our results suggested the existence of an AR to mutagenic effects of heavy-ion radiation in lymphoblastoid cells and the involvement of double-strand break repair mechanisms. 相似文献

Mathematical modelling of drug transport in tumour multicell spheroids and monolayer cultures 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
In this paper we adapt an avascular tumour growth model to compare the effects of drug application on multicell spheroids and on monolayer cultures. The model for the tumour is based on nutrient driven growth of a continuum of live cells, whose birth and death generates volume changes described by a velocity field. The drug is modelled as an externally applied, diffusible material capable of killing cells, both linear and Michaelis-Menten kinetics for drug action on cells being studied. Numerical solutions of the resulting system of partial differential equations for the multicell spheroid case are compared with closed form solutions of the monolayer case, particularly with respect to the effects on the cell kill of the drug dosage and of the duration of its application. The results show an enhanced survival rate in multicell spheroids compared to monolayer cultures, consistent with experimental observations, and indicate that the key factor determining this is drug penetration. An analysis of the large time tumour spheroid response to a continuously applied drug at fixed concentration reveals up to three stable large time solutions, namely the trivial solution (i.e. a dead tumour), a travelling wave (continuously growing tumour) and a sublinear growth case in which cells reach a pseudo-steady-state in the core. Each of these possibilities is formulated and studied, with the bifurcations between them being discussed. Numerical solutions reveal that the pseudo-steady-state solutions persist to a significantly higher drug dose than travelling wave solutions. 相似文献

Exposing cells to a low dose can protect them against a subsequent higher exposure. This phenomenon is known as adaptive response and is frequently observed in a variety of cells. Even though similarities are suspected with other non-targeted effects, such as bystander effects, the exact mechanism behind adaptive response is not fully clarified. In this study human primary fibroblasts were tested for their response to ionizing radiation (IR) after administrating a low priming dose (0.1-0.5Gy). Both the abundance of γH2AX as a marker for double-stranded breaks and the levels of cytokines, secreted in the medium, were monitored in time. Upon challenge, IR-primed cells showed modified γH2AX spot size distributions and altered repair kinetics, consistent with an adaptive response. In addition, 24h after priming with IR, four cytokines were significantly upregulated in the medium - GM-CSF (1.33×); IL6 (4.24×); IL8 (1.33×); TGF-β (1.46×). In order to mimick the protective effect of IR priming, we primed the cells with either IL6 or TGF-β. This did not elicit an altered γH2AX response as observed in IR-primed cells, indicating that the adaptive response in these primary fibroblasts is regulated in an IL-6 and TGF-β independent manner. 相似文献

Adaptive response to gamma radiation in mammalian cells proficient and deficient in components of nucleotide excision repair 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Cells preconditioned with low doses of low-linear energy transfer (LET) ionizing radiation become more resistant to later challenges of radiation. The mechanism(s) by which cells adaptively respond to radiation remains unclear, although it has been suggested that DNA repair induced by low doses of radiation increases cellular radioresistance. Recent gene expression profiles have consistently indicated that proteins involved in the nucleotide excision repair pathway are up-regulated after exposure to ionizing radiation. Here we test the role of the nucleotide excision repair pathway for adaptive response to gamma radiation in vitro. Wild-type CHO cells exhibited both greater survival and fewer HPRT mutations when preconditioned with a low dose of gamma rays before exposure to a later challenging dose. Cells mutated for ERCC1, ERCC3, ERCC4 or ERCC5 did not express either adaptive response to radiation; cells mutated for ERCC2 expressed a survival adaptive response but no mutation adaptive response. These results suggest that some components of the nucleotide excision repair pathway are required for phenotypic low-dose induction of resistance to gamma radiation in mammalian cells. 相似文献

The dependence between the adaptive response and adaptive dose was studied on the basis of cytogenetic damage in polychromatic erythrocytes of bone marrow cells in mice after a low dose gamma-irradiation in vivo. The adaptive response to doses of 0.1 and 0.2 Gy was found to be retained for at least two months after irradiation. However, the adaptive dose of 0.4 Gy did not induce prolonged adaptive response. 相似文献

Adaptive responses are induced by stress such as X radiation and result in a lower than expected biological response. Two-dose adaptive response experiments typically involve a low priming dose followed by a subsequent high radiation dose. Here, we used a sensitive in vivo chromosomal inversion assay to demonstrate for the first time an adaptive response when a low dose (0.01-1 mGy) was given several hours after a high 1000-mGy radiation dose. The adaptive responses in this study were of similar magnitude to the two-dose adaptive responses previously observed in this test system when the low dose was given first. A chromosomal inversion adaptive response was also induced by two 1000-mGy doses and when a 1-mGy dose was preceded or followed by a dose of 0.01 mGy, but not by two 4000-mGy doses. This is also the first example of an adaptive response when both doses are low. Our data agree with previous reports of an on-off mechanism of adaptive response. The induction of an adaptive response by a low dose after a high damaging dose provides evidence that the mechanisms underlying radiation adaptive responses are not due to prevention of damage induced by the high dose but to modulation of the cellular response to this damage. 相似文献

Human peripheral blood lymphocytes stimulated in vitro for 6 hr were exposed to a low (conditioning) dose of ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS; 1.5 x 10(-4) M) or methyl methanesulfonate (MMS; 1.5 x 10(-5) M). After 6 hr, the cells were treated with a high (challenging) concentration of the same agent (1.5 x 10(-3) M EMS or 1.5 x 10(-4) M MMS). The cells that received both conditioning and challenging doses became less sensitive to the induction of sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) than those which did not receive the pretreatment with EMS or MMS. They responded with lower frequencies of SCEs. This suggests that conditioning dose of EMS or MMS has offered the lymphocytes to have decreased SCEs. This led to the realization that pre-exposure of lymphocytes to low dose can cause the induction of repair activity. This is a clear indication of the existence of adaptive response induced by alkylating agents whether it is ethylating or methylating in human lymphocytes in vitro. 相似文献

Induction of lambda prophage by furazolidone 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A dose-dependent prophage induction by furazolidone exhibited a gradual rise to a maximum, corresponding to an exposure dose of 1.2 microgram/ml X h and a gradual fall thereafter. A 2-3-fold higher level of induction was achieved when the lysogens were treated with furazolidone in the presence of a metabolizing mixture. A maximum of about 70% efficiency of induction was achieved. Kinetics of prophage induction by any concentration of furazolidone exhibited a common pattern, viz., an initial rise for 15-20 min, then a plateau extending up to about 60 min and a faster rise thereafter. Higher concentrations of the drug (10 micrograms/ml) exhibited a toxic effect. Chloramphenicol at a concentration of 20 micrograms/ml inhibited the furazolidone-induced prophage induction, the plaque-forming units gradually decreasing from several minutes after the chloramphenicol treatment. The burst size of the lysogens was not significantly affected by treatment with 2 micrograms/ml of furazolidone up to a period of about 10 min, but thereafter, decreased faster with the duration of furazolidone treatment. The "latent period' of induction decreased linearly with the duration of furazolidone treatment. 相似文献
