Abstract:
:We used the 'comet assay' to compare the amount of radiation-induced DNA damage in three tumour cell lines (MeWo, PECA 4451 and PECA 4197) and the extent of DNA repair in two of these lines (MeWo and PECA 4197). Tumour cells were irradiated with X-rays (0.1-10 Gy), embedded in agarose on slides, lysed with sodium dodecyl sulphate and exposed to an electric field. DNA migrated within the agarose and formed comets whose length depended on the amount of DNA damage. When the cells were incubated at 37 degrees C for various time intervals before electrophoresis started, the comets shrank in the course of time, indicating repair of DNA damage. All three cell lines showed the same extent of DNA damage after radiation exposure, despite the fact that in the colony-forming assay MeWo and PECA 4451 were much more sensitive to radiation exposure than PECA 4197. The repair characteristics, however, were markedly different for MeWo and PECA 4197 cells. PECA 4197 cells showed a much faster restoration of the original shape of the cell nucleus than MeWo cells.
