Abstract Objective To explore the effects of miR-155 on radiosensitivity enhancement of prostate cancer in vitro.Methods Cell viability and adhesion of DU145 and PC-3 cells were evaluated after anti-miR-155 transfection combined with irradiation therapy. Flow cytometry was performed to evaluate the cell apoptosis. The expression and activity of Caspase-3 and Caspase-9 were also observed after the above treatment.Results The results evidenced that cell viability(25.6%±2.0% and 21.6±1.0% in irradiated group;20.5%±1.0% and 15.5%±1.0% in anti-miR-155 transfected group) and adhesion of DU145 and PC-3 cells(0.8%±0.1% and 0.7%±0.1% in irradiated group;0.7%±0.1% and 0.6%±0.1% in anti-miR-155 transfected group) were inhibited obviously after anti-miR-155 transfection. The apoptosis rate(3.3%±0.3% and 4.2%±0.3% in irradiated group;4.1%±0.1% and 3.9%±0.2% in anti-miR-155 transfected group), Caspase-3 and Caspase-9 expression and activity were enhanced obviously compared with the control group(P<0.01).After combinative treatment, cell viability (10.1%±0.5% in irradiated group and 6.1%±0.5% in anti-miR-155 transfected group) and adhesion (0.4%±0.1% in irradiated group and 0.4%±0.1% in anti-miR-155 transfected group)decreased significantly(P<0.01,n=6).The apoptosis rate(6.9%±0.4% in irradiated group;6.8%±0.3% in anti-miR-155 transfected group) and the expression of Caspase-3 and Caspase-9 were also higher than the signal treated group(P<0.01).Conclusions Our results suggested that miR-155 can increase the radiosensitivity of DU145 and PC-3 cells and increase the efficiency of radiotherapy of γ-ray irradiation on prostate cancer in vitro.
