    Cytotoxic and genotoxic effects of I-131 and Co-60 in follicular thyroid cancer cell (WRO) with and without recombinant human thyroid-stimulating hormone treatment
    2017 - VALGODE, FLAVIA G.S.; SILVA, MARCIA A. da; VIEIRA, DANIEL P.; RIBELA, MARIA T.C.P.; BARTOLINI, PAOLO; OKAZAKI, KAYO
    Normally, differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) tends to be biologically indolent, highly curable and has an excellent prognosis. However, the treatment may fail when the cancer has lost radioiodine avidity. The present study was carried out in order to evaluate the cytotoxic and genotoxic effects of I-131 and Co-60 and radioiodine uptake in WRO cells, derived from DTC, harboring the BRAF(V600E) mutation. WRO cells showed a relatively slow cell cycle of 96.3 h with an unstable karyotype containing various double minutes. The genotoxicity assay (micronucleus test) showed a relative high radioresistance to I-131 (0.07-3.70 MBq/mL), independent of treatment with recombinant human thyroid-stimulating hormone (rhTSH). For the cytotoxicity assay, WRO cells were also relatively resistant to Co-60 (range: 0.2-8.3 Gy), but with a gradual decrease of viability as a function of time for higher doses (20 and 40 Gy, starting from the fifth to sixth day). For internal irradiation with I-131, WRO cells showed a decline in viability at radioactive concentration higher than 1.85 MBq/mL; this was even more effective at 3.70 MBq/mL, but only when preceded by rhTSH, in coincidence with the highest level of I-131 uptake. These data show promising results, since the loss of the ability of thyroid cells to concentrate radioiodine is considered to be one of the main factors responsible for the failure of I-131 therapy in patients with DTC. The use of tumor-derived cell lines as a model for in vivo tumor requires, however, further investigations and deep evaluation of the corresponding in vivo effects.

    In vitro cytotoxic and genotoxic evaluation of peptides used in nuclear medicine (DOTATATE and Ubiquicidin29-41) in CHO-K1 cells
    2016 - OCAMPO, IVETTE Z.; PASSOS, PRISCILA de Q.S.; CARVALHO, LUMA R. de; CRUZ, CAMILA A.L. da; ESTEVES-PEDRO, NATALIA M.; SILVA, FABIANA M. da; HIGA, OLGA Z.; DIAS, LUIZ A.P.; OKAZAKI, KAYO; VIEIRA, DANIEL P.
    Micronucleus (MN) assay constitutes a valuable surrogate to the chromosome aberration technique for in vitro testing of the genotoxicity of substances. As test substances, two peptidic compounds (DOTATATE and Ubiquicidin29-41) used in nuclear medicine, were tested for in vitro cytotoxicity and genotoxicity in CHO-K1 cells. None of the compounds showed detectable cytotoxicity (0.5– 7.3 ng/mL for DOTATATE and 0.3–4.5 ng/mL for UBI29-41), genotoxicity (0.72, 7.2 and 72.0 ng/ml for DOTATATE and 0.45, 4.5 and 45.0 ng/mL for UBI29-41) or cell cycle changes as compared to untreated controls at the concentrations tested. Statistical analysis showed good concordance between two independent analysts. The results corroborate the notion of the safety of the compounds and present improvements of the in vitro MN assay when performed in a pre-clinical trial context that increase the throughput of small-to-medium testing facilities as an alternative to high content screening systems.

    Cytotogenic and dosimetric effects of sup(131)I in patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma: comparison between stimulation with rhTSH and thyroid hormone withdrawal treatments
    2016 - SILVA, MARCIA A. da; VALGODE, FLAVIA G.S.; GONZALEZ, JULIA A.; YORIYAZ, HELIO; GUIMARAES, MARIA I.C.C.; RIBELA, MARIA T.C.P.; BUCHPIGUEL, CARLOS A.; BARTOLINI, PAOLO; OKAZAKI, KAYO
    A study directed to the cytogenetic and dosimetric aspects of radionuclides of medical interest is very valuable, both for an accurate evaluation of the dose received by the patients, and consequently of the genetic damage, and for the optimization of therapeutic strategies. Cytogenetic and dosimetric effects of 131I in lymphocytes of thyroidectomized differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) patients were evaluated through chromosome aberration (CA) technique: Euthyroid patients submitted to recombinant human thyroid-stimulating hormone (rhTSH) therapy (group A) were compared with hypothyroid patients left without levothyroxine treatment (group B). CA analysis was carried out prior to and 24 h, 1 week, 1 month and 1 year after radioiodine administration (4995–7030 MBq) in both groups. An activity–response curve of 131I (0.074–0.740 MBq/mL) was elaborated, comparing dicentric chromosomes in vivo and in vitro in order to estimate the absorbed dose through Monte Carlo simulations. In general, radioiodine therapy induced a higher total CA rate in hypothyroid patients as compared to euthyroid patients. The frequencies of dicentrics obtained in DTC patients 24 h after treatment were equivalent to those induced in vitro (0.2903 ± 0.1005 MBq/mL in group A and 0.2391 ± 0.1019 MBq/mL in group B), corresponding to absorbed doses of 0.65 ± 0.23 Gy and 0.53 ± 0.23 Gy, respectively. The effect on lymphocytes of internal radiation induced by 131I therapy is minimal when based on the frequencies of CA 1 year after the treatment, maintaining a higher quality of life for DTC patients receiving rhTSHaided therapy.
