초록

Purpose Radiation-induced autophagy has been shown to play two different roles, in malignantglioma (MG) cells, cytocidal or cytoprotective. However, neither the role of radiation-inducedautophagy for cell death nor the existence of autophagy-induced apoptosis, a well-knowncell-death pathway after irradiation, has been verified yet. Materials and MethodsWe observed both temporal and dose-dependent response patterns of autophagy andapoptosis to radiation in MG cell lines. Additionally, we investigated the role of autophagyin apoptosis through knockdown of autophagy-related proteins. ResultsAutophagic activity measured by staining of acidic vesicle organelles and Western blottingof LC-3 protein increased in proportion to radiation dose from day 1 to 5 after irradiation. Apoptosis measured by annexin-V staining and Western blotting of cleaved poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase demonstrated relatively late appearance 3 days after irradiation thatincreased for up to 7 days. Blocking of pan-caspase (Z-VAD-FMK) did not affect apoptosisafter irradiation, but silencing of Atg5 effectively reduced radiation-induced autophagy, whichdecreased apoptosis significantly. Inhibition of autophagy in Atg5 knockdown cells wasshown to be beneficial for cell survival. Stable transfection of GFP-LC3 cells was observedafter irradiation. Annexin-V was localized in cells bearing GFP-LC3 punctuated spots, indicatingautophagy in immunofluorescence. Some of these punctuated GFP-LC3 bearing cellsformed conglomerated spots and died in final phase. ConclusionThese findings suggest that autophagy appears earlier than apoptosis after irradiation andthat a portion of the apoptotic population that appears later is autophagy-dependent. Thus,autophagy is a pathway to cell death after irradiation of MG cells.
