Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of an anti-HER-2 antibody trastuzumab on the proliferation, cell cycle distribution, and radiosensitivity of breast cancer cell line. The human breast cancer cell line, KPL-4, which naturally overexpresses HER-2 and is sensitive to anti-HER-2 antibody (trastuzumab). The cells were then exposed to trastuzumab (0-200 g/ml) for 24, 48, or 72 h before analysis. The nuclei were analyzed for DNA-PI fluorescence using a FACScan cell sorter with the Cell Quest and ModFit LT programs. The DNA distribution was analyzed to determine the population of cells in G0/G1, S, and G2/M phases of the cell cycle. The cells received gamma ray irradiation at a dose of 2, 4 or 8 Gy using a cobalt-60 gamma ray irradiator. There were no detectable differences in the distribution of cell cycle and the efficiency of irradiation between with and without trastuzumab. KPL-4 cells were cultured for 48 h in 1% DCC-FBS medium. The cells were then exposed to trastuzumab (0-200 g/ml) with medium containing 10% FBS for 24, 48, or 72 h before analysis. Trastuzumab induced concentration-dependent increase in the fraction of cells in G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle. This G0/G1 arrest was associated with concentration-dependent decrease of cells in S phase. Treatment with 200 g/ml trastuzumab had additive effect on the radiosensitivity of KPL-4 cells were cultured for 48 h in 1% DCC-FBS medium before trastuzumab treatment. There were no detectable differences in the efficiency of irradiation between with and without trastuzumab, when KPL-4 cells were cultured in 10% FBS medium. After KPL-4 cells incubated in medium with 1% DCC-stripped FBS, trastuzumab induced of cell cycle arrest in G0/G1 phase in the cells and had additive effect on the radiosensitivity. If trastuzumab be able to have an influence on cell cycle, trastuzumab plus irradiation may be effective for the treatment of breast cancer with HER2 overexpression.
