Glioblastoma contains self-renewing, tumorigenic cancer stem-like cells that contribute to tumor initiation and therapeutic resistance. The aim of this research was to estimate and compare the effectiveness ratio (α/β) of stem-like cells and differentiated glioma cells derived from the U87MG glioblastoma cell line. Cell survival experiments were obtained in a dose range of 0-20 Gy (13.52 ± 0.09 Gy/h) as a hyperfractionationated accelerated radiotherapy scheme. Biochemical characterization of the post-irradiated cells was performed by flow cytometry analysis and the percentage of stem-like cells that resisted irradiation was determined by the CD133 expression. Results showed that U87MG stem-like cells are highly proliferative and more radioresistant than the U87MG adherent group (with a lesser stem-like character), this in association with the calculated α/β ratio of 17 and 14.1, respectively.
胶质母细胞瘤含有自我更新、具有致瘤性的癌症干细胞样细胞,这些细胞有助于肿瘤的起始和治疗抗性。本研究的目的是评估和比较源自U87MG胶质母细胞瘤细胞系的干细胞样细胞和分化的胶质瘤细胞的有效率(α/β)。作为超分割加速放疗方案,在0-20 Gy(13.52±0.09 Gy/h)的剂量范围内进行细胞存活实验。通过流式细胞术分析对辐照后细胞进行生化表征,并通过CD133表达确定抵抗辐照的干细胞样细胞的百分比。结果表明,U87MG干细胞样细胞高度增殖且比U87MG贴壁组(具有较小的干细胞样特征)更具放射抗性,这分别与计算出的α/β比率17和14.1相关。
