| Abstract: |
| Objective To investigate the inhibition of low dose radiation (LDR) on S180 sarcomas and its modulation
of MMP-2 and TIMP-2 in mice.
Methods S180 subcutaneously implanted tumor model mice were randomly divided into two groups:
control (N) and low dose radiation (LDR) groups. N mice were sacrificed after 12 h, whereas LDR mice
were sacrificed after 12 (LDR-12 h), 24 (LDR-24 h), 48 (LDR-48 h), and 72 (LDR-72 h) h. Thereafter, we
measured the tumor volumes. Histopathology was performed, and P-V immunohistochemistry was applied
to assess MMP-2 and TIMP-2 expression.
Results Compared with the control group, the tumor growth was significantly inhibited in the LDR groups
(P < 0.05). MMP-2 expression was considerably reduced in LDR-24h (P < 0.05) and LDR-48h (P < 0.05),
whereas the change of TIMP-2 was not obvious in the LDR groups (P > 0.05) in contrast to that of the
control group.
Conclusion LDR can effectively suppress the growth of S180 implanted tumors by reducing MMP-2,
which is associated with invasion and metastasis. |
