摘要

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The possibility of using gammaH2AX foci as a marker of DNA damage and as a potential predictor of tumour response to treatment was examined using biopsies from 3 sets of patients with advanced carcinoma of the cervix. The relation between endogenous gammaH2AX expression and hypoxia was also examined. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Set 1 consisted of 26 biopsies that included pre-treatment and 24h post-radiation treatment samples. Pre-treatment biopsies from 12 patients in Set 2 were used to develop image analysis software while pre-treatment biopsies from 33 patients in Set 3 were examined for the relation between staining for the hypoxia marker pimonidazole and endogenous gammaH2AX expression. Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections were analyzed after antigen retrieval and fluorescence antibody labeling for the hypoxia markers CAIX or pimonidazole in combination with gammaH2AX staining. RESULTS: Before treatment, 24+/-19% of cells contained gammaH2AX foci, with most positive cells containing fewer than 5 foci per nucleus. Twenty-four hours after exposure to the first fraction of 1.8-2.5Gy, 38+/-19% contained foci. CAIX positive cells were 1.4 times more likely to exhibit endogenous gammaH2AX foci, and pimonidazole-positive cells were 2.8 times more likely to contain gammaH2AX foci. For 18 patients for whom both pre-treatment and 24h post-irradiation biopsies were available, local control was unrelated to the fraction of cells that retained gammaH2AX foci. However, 24h after irradiation, tumours that had received 2.5Gy showed a significantly higher fraction of cells with residual gammaH2AX foci than tumours given 1.8Gy. CONCLUSIONS: Endogenous gammaH2AX foci are enriched in hypoxic tumour regions. Small differences in delivered dose can produce quantifiable differences in residual DNA damage that can overshadow inter-tumour differences in response.
