Abstract：
:Keratinocyte growth factor (FGF7, also known as KGF) ameliorates the radiation response of mouse oral mucosa and other epithelial tissues. However, the precise mechanisms remain unclear. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of FGF7 on the survival and colony size of normal human epidermal keratinocytes in vitro. Primary neonatal keratinocytes (HEKn) were irradiated with doses of 0 and 2 Gy of 200 kV X rays and incubated in the presence or absence of 100 ng/ml FGF7. The plating efficiency (PE) and surviving fraction (SF2) were determined using a clonogenic assay. In cell cultures without FGF7, the mean PE was 4.6 +/- 0.2%. Irradiation with 2 Gy resulted in an SF2 of 51 +/- 2%. In cell cultures with FGF7, the mean PE was identical, and a similar SF2 of 54 +/- 1% was observed (P = 0.4). However, the individual colony size was significantly increased in all cultures incubated with FGF7 compared to those incubated without FGF7. The number of extremely large colonies (> or =2 mm) was clearly higher (P < 0.0001) in cultures with FGF7. This was accompanied by a significant reduction in the diameter of individual cells from 29 microm in controls to 23 microm with FGF7. In conclusion, FGF7 does not affect the survival of keratinocytes after irradiation, but it does stimulate proliferation of surviving cells.
