Research Abstract |
(1) We demonstrated that cisplatin induced growth suppression followed by induction of differentiation in teratocarcinoma F9 cells. In this study, we investigated the mechanism of the effect of cisplatin for cell cycle progression in F9 cells focusing on the change of p34^<cdc2>. By the treatment, the level of the expressionof cdc2 mRNA did not change, but the half life of p34^<cdc2> was greatly reduced, which would result in the arrest the cell cycle at the late S to G2/M. (2) The mammalian Rad51 gene is a homolog of the yeast Rad5l and E.coli RecA genes, which are related to the repair of DNA double-strand breaks and are also involved in recombination repair and various SOS responses to DNA damage by g-irradiation and alkylating agent like anticancer agent. In this study, we demonstrated that Rad51 antisense oligonucleotides enhances the radiosensityivity of mouse malignant gliomas in vivo and in vitro, suggesting the potentiation for radiation therapy in malignant gliomas by inhibiting DNA double-strand break repair.
