miR-18a enhancing radiosensitivity of A549 cells and its molecular mechanism
Objective To determine the effect of miR-18a on the radiosensitivity of A549 cells and investigate the underlying molecular mechanisms. Methods After A549 cells were treated with 2 Gy X-ray
miR-18a was determined by qRT-PCR. And then miR-18a mimics were transfected into A549 cells
after exposure to X-ray radiation at different doses
surrival fraction was assessed by clonogenic assay. Survival fraction at 2 Gy (SF
2
) and sensitive enhancement ration (SER) were calculated. The protein levels of
ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) kinase and ATM (phospho S1981) were determined by Western blotting after up-regulating miR-18a. Results miR-18a was decreased from 1.00±0.04 to 0.18±0.04-0.31±0.09 in A549 cells after exposure to 2 Gy X-ray (P0.05). miR-18a over-expression increased the radiosensitivity in A549 cells. The SF
2
in miR-18a over-expression cells and normal A549 cells was 0.34 and 0.48
respectively. Moreover
the expression levels of ATM and ATM (phospho S1981) were down-regulated in miR-18a over-expressed A549 cells. Conclusion In A549 cells
miR-18a enhances radiosensitivity by inhibiting ATM and ATM (phospho S1981).
