It was first shown that DNA damage induction in mitomycin C-treated HeLa cells leads to a change in the selection of 5p and 3p microRNA duplex strands in the formation of the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC).
Аннотация. Наряду с гормональной, радиационная терапия является основным методом лечения на поздних стадиях развития рака. Однако ее эффективность ограничивается возникновением радиорези-стентных клонов клеток. В связи с этим исследование механизмов, обусловливающих радиорезистент-ность клеток опухоли, имеет не только фундаментальное, но и практическое значение.Основной метод при проведении генетических исследований -получение мутантов по интересу-ющим нас признакам. В случае клеток млекопитающих, культивируемых in vitro, таким методом яв-ляется не выделение клонов мутантных клеток, а получение резистентных вариантов с измененными характеристиками анализируемого признака. Это в полной мере относится к чувствительности клеток к действию ионизирующего излучения.Методом многократного дробного облучения гамма-квантами нами получены радиорезистентные варианты клеточных линий аденокарциномы шейки матки HeLa и карциномы предстательной железы DU145. Уровень репродуктивной гибели клеточных линий измеряли при помощи клоногенного теста. Цитологическую оценку интерфазной гибели клеток, включающей в себя апоптоз и некроз, проводили на препаратах, окрашенных Hoechst 33342. Уровень репродуктивной гибели в полученных радиорези-стентных вариантах по сравнению с их нативными вариантами статистически значимо уменьшался при всех дозах облучения, в то время как интерфазная гибель продемонстрировала значимое уменьшение лишь при высоких дозах радиации.Ключевые слова: радиорезистентность, апоптоз, репродуктивная гибель клеток, рак, клеточные линии, DU145, HeLa. Abstract. Along with hormonal, radiation therapy is the main method of treatment in advanced stages of cancer. However, its effectiveness is limited by the occurrence of radioresistant cell clones. In this connection, the study of the mechanisms that determine the radio-resistance of tumor cells is not only fundamental, but also practical. OBTAINING OF RADIORESISTANT VARIANTSThe main method for performing genetic studies is to obtain mutants after the features of interest. In case of mammalian cells cultured in vitro, such method is the preparation of resistant variants with altered characteristics of the feature being analyzed, rather than isolating mutant cell clones. This fully applies to the sensitivity of cells to the action of ionizing radiation.Radioresistant variants of the cell lines of cervical adenocarcinoma HeLa and prostate carcinoma DU145 were obtained by repeated fractional gamma irradiation. The level of reproductive death of cell lines was assessed with the use of a clonogenic test. The cytological evaluation of interphase cell death, which includes 1 Институт аридных зон Южного научного центра Российской академии наук (Institute of Arid Zones, Southern Scientific Centre, Russian Academy of Sciences, Rostov-on-Don, Russian Federation), Российская Федерация, 344006, г.

Background. Radiation therapy is one of the leading treatments for early and late stage prostate cancer. Radiation therapy is one of the leading treatments for early and late stage prostate cancer. The significant frequency of prostate cancer progression after radiation therapy makes it relevant to study the molecular mechanisms of the development of radioresistance, to identify prognostic markers of its development.Objective: identification and analysis of the mechanism of action of microRNAs regulating radioresistance of prostate cancer cells on the model of the androgen-independent DU145 cell line.Materials and methods. We used human prostate adenocarcinoma cell lines: DU145-hormone-independent prostate cancer cell line and DU145-RR - its radioresistant variant. Differential microRNA expression was measured in cultured DU145 and DU145-RR cells 1, 8 days after a single gamma irradiation at a dose of 4 Gy. To analyze the differential expression of microRNAs in the initial and radioresistant variants of DU145 cells, the HiSeq 2000 platform (Illumina Inc., USA) was used. The miRBase v.21 database was used to identify microRNAs. The miRTarbase 7.0 and KEGG PATHWAY databases were used for bioinformatic analysisResults. The results of the study showed that the aberrant expression of miR-101-3p, -148a-3p, -21-3p, -532-5p, -92a-3p in DU145-RR cells upregulated compared to that in DU145 cells, and miR-125b-5p, -23a-3p, -424-3p - downregulated. It has been shown that the role of these microRNAs is associated with the provision of functional interaction between DNA methyltransferases, the transcriptional regulator of the proto-oncogenic protein Myc, and PTEN phosphatase in the regulation of the activity of MAPK and PI3K protein kinase signaling cascades. Constitutive activation of these cascades leads to an increase in cell survival, migration, proliferation, and growth.Conclusion. A wide range of target genes and a significant change in the expression profiles of microRNAs in various conditions, including the transition of malignant cells to a radioresistant status, makes microRNAs promising prognostic markers of radioresistance in prostate cancer.
