| Research Abstract |
A tabletop X-ray microbeam system with optical tweezers was developed for the microscopic research of radiation effects on cells in liquid culture. An X-ray beam from an X-ray tube with a 50 kV thin electron beam was converged by use of a glass capillary, which realized an X-ray beam spot of 12 μm (FWHM) in diameter. The maximum dose rate on a targeted cell in liquid culture was estimated to be 0.05 Gy/s from results of beam profile measurements and photon-electron transport calculations.
A preliminary experiment on the survival of budding cells of yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae (RAD52) was performed with the present X-ray microbeam system. Micro pits were made on an agar layer in a culture dish by use of a green laser, and then the budding yeast cells were put in the micro-pits one by one with the optical tweezers, i.e. a focused infrared laser. The X-ray irradiation effect on the cell lethality was clearly observed for the cells exposed to X-rays of 100 Gy.
RPL (RadioPhotoLuminescent)

glass plates of 1 mm thickness were used to measure the X-ray microbeam profile. The image of the beam profile was obtained with a fluorescence microscope. In addition, images of DNA double strand breaks of the targeting cells on the RPL glass plate was obtained in the fluorescence antibody technique. Normal human fibroblasts (AG01522B) were grown in a RPL glass plate in Eagle's minimum essential medium. The sample plate was set in an X-ray microbeam system. A single cell was irradiated with the X-ray microbeam. The absorbed dose for the targeting cell was 5 Gy.
After the irradiation, the sample cells were stained with anti-γ H2AX antibody and fluorescence-labeled secondary anti-body, Alexa Fluor【○!R】 488 goat anti-mouse IgG F(ab')2 fragment conjugate. In addition, the nuclei of cells were stained with propidium iodide. The foci in the nucleus indicates the DNA damages produced by the X-ray beam. A RPL image of the X-ray beam was also obtained with the fluorescence microscope. In this way, the images of DNA damages and the X-ray beam profile at the same position could be successfully obtained with the fluorescent microscopy. Less
