Resumo
Introdução:
In the fields of biology and medicine, hormesis is a biological response to the action of toxins and
other stressors in low concentrations. In studies with osteoblasts, this definition can be true.
Osteoblasts are specialized fibroblasts that secrete and deposit bone matrix. Irradiation therapies for
some types of cancer cause massive bone loss; however, low-dose X-radiation can have the
opposite effect on osteoblastic culture, increasing proliferation, differentiation, and formation of
mineralizing nodules. As for the effects of Gamma Radiation at low doses, there is little information
about bone regeneration.
Objetivos:
Evaluate the effects of irradiation with 60Co ?-rays in low doses in the formation of mineralization
nodules in the culture of osteoblasts.
Métodos:
MC3T3-E1 cells were bought by the Banco de Células do Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (MC3T3-E1
Subclone 14). The cells cultured in ?-MEM medium consisting of 10% FBS and without
?-glycerophosphate and L-ascorbic acid (GIBCO, Custom Product, Catalog No. A1049001) as
described manufacturer.
Plating efficiency assays: cells were plated at a density of 100 cell/plate into 60 mm Petri dishes.
After 14 days, the colonies were stained with violet crystal and counted.
Mineralization assays: cells were cultured in the same medium with 10 mM ?-glycerophosphate and
50 mg/ml ascorbic acid and analyzed on days 7, 14, and 21.
Osteoblast culture irradiation assay: cells were plated at a density of 1x 105 cells/plate on 60 mm
dishes and the next day were irradiated by 60Co source with 0 (as the control), 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0
Gy using the GammaCell 220 - Irradiation Unit of Canadian-Atomic Energy Commision Ltd.
(CTR-IPEN).
The analysis of the mineralization nodules of the cultures used the dye Alizarin red S (Sigma). All
assays were in triplicates, and multiple comparisons were evaluated by One-way ANOVA followed
by Bonferroni tests and GraphPad Prism software version 6.0. P < 0.05 (considered statistically
significant).
Resultados: The tests to evaluate the effects of gamma radiation at low doses used doses of 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and
2.0 Gy. The plating efficiency results obtained were 39% for non-irradiated cultures and between
15% and 11% for irradiated cultures. Regarding the evaluation of the formation of mineralization
nodules per cm2 significant difference in the 0.5 Gy group was observed compared with the control
group (0 Gy), 64.7?1.8 and 53.0?0.9, respectively. The 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 Gy dose groups had a
decrease in the amounts of mineralizing nodules. Analyzing the data in the non-linear function
showed that the profile presented a decreasing trend with a negative angular coefficient. This profile
agrees with the Hormetic model, in which low doses induce a stimulatory effect while high doses
cause inhibition.
Conclusão:
This study is one of the first to investigate the action of low-dose gamma radiation on the MC3T3-E1
culture, focusing on potential applications in bone regeneration therapy.
