ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the killing effect of radiation on echinococcus in vitro culture and its effect on the mRNA expression of growth arrest and DNA damage 45 alpha (Gadd45α) gene. Methods:Echinococcus from naturally infected sheep liver was cultured in vitro and divided into 7 groups. The echinococcus was irradiated with 6 MeV at doses of 0 (control), 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, and 120 Gy, respectively. The growth of echinococcus was observed under light microscope at 1, 3, 5 and 7 d after the radiation. The expression of Gadd45α mRNA in control, 20, 40 and 60 Gy groups of echinococcus was detected by RT-PCR technique at 7 d after the radiation. Results:The disintegration and exfoliation of echinococcus were observed under light microscope at 1, 3, 5 and 7 d after the radiation, and the death rate of echinococcus was positively correlated with the radiation dosages ( r = 0.81, P < 0.05). After the radiation at 7 d, compared with the control group (100.00 ± 0.00), the mRNA expression levels of Gadd45α in echinococcus of 20, 40, and 60 Gy groups were significantly increased (279.74 ± 80.08, 759.38 ± 160.98, 1 666.68 ± 316.36, P < 0.01), and it was positively correlated with the radiation dosages ( r = 0.93, P < 0.01). Conclusion:Radiation has a certain killing effect on echinococcus cultured in vitro, and there is a certain dose-effect relationship with the radiation dosages, and Gadd45α gene may be involved in the molecular mechanism of radiation-induced killing of echinococcus in vitro.
