Abstract

We investigated the effects of ablative dose irradiation on redistribution and radioresponse after the second irradiation in a mouse xenograft model, assuming stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). A human tongue cancer cell line, SAS-Fucci, expressing the fluorescent ubiquitination-based cell cycle indicator (Fucci) that visualizes the cell cycle, was employed in this study. Tumor xenografts formed subcutaneously in nude mice (approximately 6 mm in diameter), with essentially no hypoxic regions, were irradiated at 10 Gy and G2 arrest kinetics were determined using histology sections and a real-time detection method. The second irradiation (10 Gy) was given at intervals of 0 h, 3 h, 1 day, and 4 days after the first irradiation, and tumor regrowth curves were obtained. It was revealed that the ratio of G2-arrested cells showed a much higher peak at 1 day postirradiation compared to 2 Gy, assuming conventional radiotherapy, and gradually decreased thereafter up to 4 days. Tumors irradiated at intervals of 0 h and 1 day demonstrated significantly higher radioresponses than other timings. We conclude that redistribution could contribute to the efficacy of SBRT.
