Control of the G2/M checkpoints after exposure to low doses of ionising radiation: implications for hyper-radiosensitivity

DNA Repair
Marie FernetVincent Favaudon

Abstract

Two molecularly distinct G2/M cell cycle arrests are induced after exposure to ionising radiation (IR) depending on the cell cycle compartment in which the cells are irradiated. The aims of this study were to determine whether there are threshold doses for their activation and investigate the molecular pathways and possible links between the G2 to M transition and hyper-radiosensitivity (HRS). Two human glioblastoma cell lines (T98G-HRS(+) and U373-HRS(-)) unsynchronized or enriched in G2 were irradiated and flow cytometry with BrdU or histone H3 phosphorylation analysis used to assess cell cycle progression and a clonogenic assay to measure radiation survival. The involvement of ATM, Wee1 and PARP was studied using chemical inhibitors. We found that cells irradiated in either the G1 or S phase of the cell cycle transiently accumulate in G2 in a dose-dependent manner after exposure to doses as low as 0.2Gy. Only Wee1 inhibition reduced this G2 accumulation. A block of the G2 to M transition was found after irradiation in G2 but occurs only above a threshold dose, which is cell line dependent, and requires ATM activity after exposure to doses above 0.5Gy. A failure to activate this early G2/M checkpoint correlates with low dose ...Continue Reading

Cell Cycle Pathways

Cell cycle is a complex process regulated by several signal transduction pathways and enzymes. Here is the latest research on regulation of cell cycle and cell cycle pathways.

Cell Checkpoints & Regulators

Cell cycle checkpoints are a series of complex checkpoint mechanisms that detect DNA abnormalities and ensure that DNA replication and repair are complete before cell division. They are primarily regulated by cyclins, cyclin-dependent kinases, and the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome. Here is the latest research.
