Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We showed that heat-induced DSBs are repaired by HR pathways. If phosphorylation of Ku was important for heat-induced DSBs, these phosphorylated enzyme (ATR etc.) inhibitors could block phosphorylation and disassociation from DSBs of Ku. In the colony forming assays, combination use with ATR inhibitor (VE-821) and heat was more sensitive than heat only. In human tongue squamous cell carcinoma cells, immunocytochemical staining for γH2AX following heat showed that the expression in combination use with VE-821 and heat was about twice as much as heat only. This results suggest that phosphorylation of Ku might be important for heat-induced DSBs
