Abstract |
PURPOSE:In the present study, we investigated whether the disruption of the Hif-1α gene affects the sensitivity of SCC VII cells to metformin and also if metformin functions as a radiosensitizer using murine squamous cell carcinoma (SCC VII) cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Cultured SCC VII and SCC VII Hif-1α-deficient cells were incubated with metformin under glucose-free and/or hypoxia-mimetic conditions and cell viabilities were measured. Tumor-bearing mice were continuously given 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) to label all proliferating cells. Tumor-bearing mice were then subjected to γ-ray irradiation after the metformin treatment. Immediately after irradiation, cells were isolated from some tumors and incubated with a cytokinesis blocker. The responses of quiescent and total (= proliferating + quiescent) cell populations were assessed based on the frequency of micronuclei using immunofluorescence staining for BrdU. RESULTS:The disruption of Hif-1α increased the sensitivity of SCC VII cells to metformin in glucose-free medium. Metformin-induced decreases in the percentage of dead cells in the presence of CoCl2 were partially reduced when Hif-1α was disrupted. In vivo, metformin increased the radiosensitivity of SCC VII Hif-1α-deficient cells. CONCLUSION:The combination of disruption of Hif-1α and metformin effectively enhanced the radiosensitivity of SCC VII cells. |
