Abstract: Objective To investigate the expression of miR-424* in 2 and 4 Gy X-ray irradiated A549 cells in vitro and in vivo,as well as in clinical lung tissues and serum sample of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) patients,and to explore its potential role in the diagnosis and prognosis of lung cancer.Methods A549 cells were irradiated with 2 and 4 Gy X-rays,and some of irradiated cells were injected into nude mice through tail vein.Real time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) assay was employed to detect the expression of miR-424 * in 2 and 4 Gy X-ray irradiated A549 cells in vitro and in vivo,as well as in clinical lung tissues and serum sample of lung cancer patients.Results Compared with the control group,the expression of miR-424* was up-regulated significantly in X-ray irradiated A549 cells at 1,2,12,24 and 48 hpost irradiation,respectively (2 Gy:t =-45.886--6.709,P <0.05;4 Gy:t =-29.087--7.833,P < 0.05).Furthermore,the expression of miR-424 * was up-regulated in the lung and serum of nude mice with injection of 0,2 and 4 Gy X-ray irradiated A549 cells,compared with control group (fold change was 9.72,8.58 and 4.7 with 2 Gy irradiation and 11.93,9.22 and 8.99 with 4 Gy irradiation,t=-13.243,-12.409,-9.833 in lung andt=-6.436,-3.052,-3.609 in serum,respectively,P < 0.05).Out of 11 tissue samples of NSCLC patients,6 were detected with up-regulated miR-424* expression,and no significant discrepancy of miR-424* expression was detected in two type of NSCLC tissue samples.On the contrary,43 serum samples were detected with up-regulated miR-424* expression out of 84 serum samples (51.20%) of NSCLC patients (fold change range 1.97 to 17.71),and significant discrepancy of miR-424* expression was shown in two subtypes of NSCLC serum samples [adenocarcinoma:39.10% (18/46) and squamous carcinoma:65.8% (25/38)],as well as in serum samples of NSCLC patients with radiotherapy [41.5% (22/53)] and without radiotherapy [67.7% (21/31)] (t=5.919,5.387,P <0.05,respectively).Conclusions 2 and 4 Gy X-ray irradiation could up-regulate the expression of miR-424* in A549 cells,which might be correlated with the enhanced metastasis of A549 cells induced by X-ray in vivo and in vitro.Furthermore,the expression of miR-424* was up-regulated in over 50% of the tissue and serum samples of NSCLC patients,which might be correlated with the diagnosis of NSCLC subtype and prognosis of radiotherapy.
