Abstract
Daños en el ADN-ensayos, cuantificando el número inicial de ADN de doble cadena se rompe inducida por la radiación, se han propuesto como una prueba predictiva para la radiación inducida por la toxicidad. Determinación de la apoptosis inducida por radiación en linfocitos de sangre periférica mediante el análisis de citometría de flujo también ha sido propuesta como un método para predecir las respuestas normales del tejido después de la radioterapia. El objetivo del presente estudio fue explorar la asociación entre el daño del ADN inicial, estimada por el número de doble filamento se rompe inducida por una dosis de radiación que se administra, y se observaron las tasas de la apoptosis inducida por la radio. MÉTODOS: Linfocitos de sangre periférica fueron tomadas de 26 pacientes consecutivos con carcinoma de mama localmente avanzado. Radiosensibilidad de los linfocitos se cuantificó como el número inicial de ADN de doble cadena se rompe inducida por Gy y la unidad de ADN por (200 Mbps). Radio inducida por la apoptosis en Gy 1, 2 y 8 se midió por citometría de flujo utilizando anexina V / ioduro de propidio. RESULTADOS: La radiación inducida por aumento de la apoptosis con el fin de dosis de radiación y de datos instalados en un modelo matemático semi logarítmica. Una correlación positiva se encontró entre los valores de la apoptosis inducida por la radio a diferentes dosis de radiación: 1, 2 y 8 Gy (p <0,0001 en todos los casos). La media de OSD / Gy / ADN unidad obtenida fue de 1,70 ± 0,83 (rango 0,63-4,08, mediana, 1,46). Se observó una correlación inversa estadísticamente significativa entre el daño inicial en el ADN y la apoptosis inducida por la radio de 1 Gy (p = 0,034). La tendencia a 2 Gy (p = 0,057) y 8 Gy (p = 0,067) se observó después de 24 horas de incubación. CONCLUSIONES: Una relación inversa se observó por primera vez entre estas variables, tanto considerados como factores de predicción para la toxicidad por radiación.
Background. DNA-damage assays, quantifying the initial number of DNA double-strand breaks induced by radiation, have been proposed as a predictive test for radiation-induced toxicity. Determination of radiation-induced apoptosis in peripheral blood lymphocytes by flow cytometry analysis has also been proposed as an approach for predicting normal tissue responses following radiotherapy. The aim of the present study was to explore the association between initial DNA damage, estimated by the number of double-strand breaks induced by a given radiation dose, and the radio-induced apoptosis rates observed. Methods. Peripheral blood lymphocytes were taken from 26 consecutive patients with locally advanced breast carcinoma. Radiosensitivity of lymphocytes was quantified as the initial number of DNA double-strand breaks induced per Gy and per DNA unit (200 Mbp). Radio-induced apoptosis at 1, 2 and 8 Gy was measured by flow cytometry using annexin V/propidium iodide. Results. Radiation-induced apoptosis increased in order to radiation dose and data fitted to a semi logarithmic mathematical model. A positive correlation was found among radio-induced apoptosis values at different radiation doses: 1, 2 and 8 Gy (p < 0.0001 in all cases). Mean DSB/Gy/DNA unit obtained was 1.70 ± 0.83 (range 0.63-4.08; median, 1.46). A statistically significant inverse correlation was found between initial damage to DNA and radio-induced apoptosis at 1 Gy (p = 0.034). A trend toward 2 Gy (p = 0.057) and 8 Gy (p = 0.067) was observed after 24 hours of incubation. Conclusions. An inverse association was observed for the first time between these variables, both considered as predictive factors to radiation toxicity.
