Abstract:
:We evaluated cell survival, DNA double strand breaks (dsbs), and DNA synthesis following camptothecin (CPT) alone or concurrent CPT and X-radiation treatments in exponential-phase cultures of a radioresistant human melanoma cell line. Cell survival was measured by a clonogenic assay. DNA dsbs were measured by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. DNA synthesis was measured by incorporation of (3)H-thymidine. We found that (i) concurrent CPT and X-radiation interacted additively, unlike previous results with plateau-phase cultures of these cells, which showed synergistic interaction; (ii) there were strong negative correlations (correlation coefficients of at least 0.82) between clonogenic surviving fractions and DNA dsbs following CPT alone or concurrent CPT and radiation treatments; and (iii) concurrent CPT and radiation (10 Gy) treatment did not completely inhibit DNA synthesis, even though addition of radiation to CPT did further decrease DNA synthesis (relative to CPT alone) at CPT concentrations below 20 microM. Our results suggest that during concurrent CPT and radiation treatment residual DNA dsb levels were good indicators of cell killing and that the absence of complete inhibition of DNA synthesis could at least in part explain the additive interaction between CPT and radiation.
