Cell Cycle
• Tc = cell cycle time• Mitosis
– Visible by light microscopy– Cell rounds up, chromosome condenses,
cell divides– Lasts about 1 hour
• Rest of cell cycle called interphase• DNA synthesis occurs during S phase of
interphase
1890 David von Hansemann

The Cell Cycle
G1 = 1st Gap
S = Synthesis
G2 = 2nd Gap
M = Mitosis
![Page 4: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Lab Techniques: Cell Cycle Analysis
• Tritiated thymidine• BrDu (Bromodeoxyuridine)• Propidium Iodide
![Page 5: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Trititiated Thymidine– Cells will incorporate labeled
nucleotides if in S phase– Cells in S and G2 will have
“grainy appearing” nuclei– Cells in 1st Mitosis will have
stained chromatid– Cells in 2nd Mitosis will only
have one stained chromatid (because DNA was replicated again during 2nd S phase using unlabeled nucleotides)
– Use of BrdU preferred b/c not radioactive and quicker results
Labelling Index = (Ts/Tc)Ts = LI (Tc/)
Tc = Cell Cycle TimeTs = Time of S Phase= Empirically derived
constant

Cell Cycle• Tc primarily dependent on ’s in length of G1• Regulated by:
– Cyclin Dependent Kinases (CDKs), Cyclins, CDK Inhibitors (CKIs)
– Form complexes based on activation state• Usually (pS/pT) Ser/Thr PO4
• Complex inactivation– Reversible: pY @ ATP binding domain or Cdk
inhibitory proteins– Irreversible: Ubiquitin mediated degradation

G1/S Phase Checkpoint
![Page 11: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• The central role of the retinoblastoma protein (pRb) in cell-cycle progression is shown.
• S phase entry: • Rb pRb by cyclin D1–CDK4/6 & Cyclin E–CDK2 complexes.• pRb release & activation of E2F transcription factor• E2F then activates genes required for cell-cycle progression.
G1/S Phase Checkpoint

![Page 13: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
![Page 14: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
![Page 15: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Cell Cycle Synchronization• Mitotic Harvest
– Collect cells which round up off of monolayer as they prepare for M phase
• Flow cytometry can also sort cells based on cell cycle phase
• Hydroxyurea– Kills S phase cells, block cell cycle at G1 so cells
collect in G1– Remove hydroxyurea and synchronized cells
proceed to S phase• Radiation treatments synchronize phase
![Page 16: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Cell Cycle X-ray Sensitivity• Using synchronized cells we can determine
sensitivity to XRT during various phases• Sensitivity: M > G2 > G1> S early > S late
– Most resistant in Late S phase (likely due to homologous recombination b/w sister chromatids to repair damage
![Page 17: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Checkpoint Genes• G2 checkpoint gene
– Halts cells in G2 to assess and repair DNA damage– Mutants of this gene proceed to Mitosis without
repair & thus are more likely to die from XRT– Thought to involve Cdk1
![Page 18: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Checkpoints and Repair
![Page 19: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
O2 and Cell Cycle• OER oxygen enhancement ratio
– differences can change radiosensitivity by about the same magnitude as cell cycle differences
– OER = Dose in hypoxia conditions Dose in Aerated Conditions
• OER Photons – 2.5 - 3– Aerated Photon RT is 2.5-3 x more effective
• OER greatest in S phase > G1 > G2
![Page 20: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
OER
![Page 21: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Age-Response Function• In vivo is similar to in vitro:
– most sensitive at G2/M, most resistant in late S phase• High LET = Minimal cell cycle variation in sensitivity• Low LET = Indirect damage by Free Radicals• Proposed Mechanisms
– In S phase DNA is replicating in M phase it is condensed and separating (i.e. less available for indirect damage)
– Levels of Sulfhydryls (anti-oxidants) vary with cell cycle– Levels of repair enzyme activity vary with cell cycle
![Page 22: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Reassortment
• For a fractionated regimen cells may again cycle into a radiosensitive part of the cycle by the time the next fraction is given
• Rapidly dividing cells are more likely than late responding normal tissues to undergo this re-assortment resulting in therapeutic gain.
In vivo Asynchronous cells
Preferentially kills M phase cells
Synchronize cells, most residual in S phase
D0 XRT kill
Re-Cycle

#1 Following exposure to IR, cells that lack functional p53 are most
likely to arrest in which phase of the cell cycle?
• G1• S• G2• M• Will not arrest
![Page 24: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
• G2 -after XRT all cells regardless of P53 status will halt in G2. With functional P53 there may also be some cells that halt at G1 and S but the majority will still be at G2 (remember the G2 cell cycle checkpoint)
![Page 25: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
#2 Radiation induced G1 arrest involves which sequence of protein
changes?
• FasL binding, caspase 9 activation, mitochondrial breakdown
• ATM autophosphorylation, P53 phosphorylation, p21 upregulation
• Cyt c release, caspase 8 activation, lamin degradation
• PI3K acetylation, P53 ubiquitination, bcl-2 degradation
• NBS1 phos, ATM methylation, Bax upregualtion
![Page 26: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
• ATM autophosphorylation, P53 phosphorylation, p21 upregulation
• In response to IR induced DNA damages, principally DNA DSB’s, ATM undergoes conformational changes, and is then autophosphorylated to activate it. Activated ATM phosphorylated P53 which acts as a trxpn factor for P21. P21 is a cdk inhibitor and thus causes cell cycle inhibition.

• Late S
![Page 29: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
#4 Proliferating human cells in vivo generally have what Tc
• 6-24 hours• 1-5 days• 5-25 days• 4-8 weeks• 3-6 months
![Page 30: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
• 1-5 days, tumors don’t double in volume this quickly however b/c not all cells are proliferating and there is a high rate of cell death
![Page 31: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
#5 Assuming that all cells are proliferating, if the cell cycle time is 3
days, the labeling index is 0.2 and is 0.7 what is the duration of S
phase• 1 hour• 5 hour• 10 hr• 20 hr• 50 hr
![Page 32: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Labelling Index = (Ts/Tc)Ts = LI(Tc/)
Ts=0.2(72hrs/0.7)=20.6 hrs
![Page 33: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
#6 Asynchronous population of 2 x 107 cells has the following
parameters:
-About how many cells are in S phase?• 2.5 x 105
• 106
• 2.5 x 106
• 5 x 106
• 107
Tm=1hrTg1=11hrTs= 5hrTg2=3hrGrowth fraction (% not quiescent (Not G0) = 0.5)
![Page 34: Radiosensitivity and the Cell Cycle - Chapter 4 jtl](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062823/5879fef61a28ab70298b7e29/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Total Tc = 20hrs, Ts=5hrs so roughly 1/4 of dividing cells are in S phase. Growth Fraction is 0.5 so about half of cells are dividing so 1/8 of all cells are in S phase. 1/8 x (2 x 107 cells)=
2.5 x 106
