PURPOSE: Stress granules (SGs) are cytoplasmic aggregates in which mRNAs and specific proteins are trapped in response to a variety of damaging agents. They participate in the cellular defense mechanisms. Currently, their mechanism of formation in response to ionizing radiation and their role in tumor-cell radiosensitivity remain elusive.
METHODS AND MATERIALS: The kinetics of SG formation was investigated after the delivery of photon irradiation at different doses to head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cell lines with different radiosensitivities and the HeLa cervical cancer cell line (used as reference). In parallel, the response to a canonical inducer of SGs, sodium arsenite, was also studied. Immunolabeling of SG-specific proteins and mRNA fluorescence in situ hybridization enabled SG detection and quantification. Furthermore, a ribopuromycylation assay was used to assess the cell translational status. To determine whether reactive oxygen species were involved in SG formation, their scavenging or production was induced by pharmacologic pretreatment in both SCC61 and SQ20B cells.
RESULTS: Photon irradiation at different doses led to the formation of cytoplasmic foci that were positive for different SG markers. The presence of SGs gradually increased from 30 minutes to 2 hours postexposure in HeLa, SCC61, and Cal60 radiosensitive cells. In turn, the SQ20B and FaDu radioresistant cells did not form SGs. These results indicated a correlation between sensitivity to photon irradiation and SG formation. Moreover, SG formation was significantly reduced by reactive oxygen species scavenging using dimethyl sulfoxide in SCC61 cells, which supported their role in SG formation. However, a reciprocal experiment in SQ20B cells that depleted glutathione using buthionine sulfoximide did not restore SG formation in these cells.
CONCLUSIONS: SGs are formed in response to irradiation in radiosensitive, but not in radioresistant, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cells. Interestingly, compared with sodium arsenite-induced SGs, photon-induced SGs exhibited a different morphology and cellular localization. Moreover, photon-induced SGs were not associated with the inhibition of translation; rather, they depended on oxidative stress.
