HYPOTHESIS: Vestibular Schwannoma (VS) can avoid cell death following radiation injury by entering cell cycle arrest and activating RAD51-related DNA repair.
BACKGROUND: Although the radiobiology of various cancers is well-studied, the radiobiological effects in VS are poorly understood. In this study, we describe how VS cells enter cell cycle arrest (through p21 expression), activate DNA repair (through RAD51 upregulation), and avoid cell death after radiation-induced double-stranded breaks (DSB) in DNA (as measured by γ-H2AX).
METHODS: Primary human VS cells were cultured on 96-well plates and 16-well culture slides at 10,000 cells/well and exposed to either 0 or 18 Gray of radiation. Viability assays were performed at 96 h in vitro. Immunofluorescence for γ-H2AX, RAD51, and p21 was performed at 6 h.
RESULTS: Radiation (18 Gy) induced the expression of γ-H2AX, p21, and RAD51 in six cultured VS, suggesting that irradiated VS acquire DSBs, enter cell cycle arrest, and initiate RAD51 DNA repair to evade cell death. However, viability studies demonstrate variable responses in individual VS cells with 3 of 6 VS showing radiation resistance to 18 Gy. On further analyses, radiation-resistant VS cells expressed significantly more p21 than radiation-responsive tumors.
CONCLUSIONS: In response to radiation-induced DNA damage, primary VS cells can enter cell cycle arrest and express RAD51 DNA repair mechanisms to avoid cell death. Radioresistant VS cells may mount a more robust p21 response to ensure sufficient time for DNA repair. Further investigation into DNA repair proteins and cell cycle checkpoints may provide important insight on the radiobiology of VS and mechanisms for resistance.
