abstract = {Introduction: The efficacy of DNA-targeting radionuclide
therapies might be strongly enhanced by employing short
range particle emitter. To determine the gain of the
biological impact per decay and radiation dose the
biological effectiveness of the Auger electron emitter I-125
was investigated and compared to the ß--emitter P-32 and
external homogeneous high dose rate γ-irradiation.Methods:
Triplex-forming oligonucleotides (TFO) bind to the DNA
double helix in a sequence specific manner and are therefore
a suitable carrier for Auger electron emitter to damage
exclusively targeted DNA sequences [1]. Clonogenicity
(colony-forming assay; CFA) and induction of DNA double
strand breaks (DSB; 53BP1 foci assay) were investigated in
SCL-II cells after exposure to I-125- or P-32-labeled TFO
for different numbers of accumulated decays and were
compared to external γ-irradiation (Cs-137; 0.7 Gy/min).
The used TFO targeted a DNA sequence located in the
glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) gene. Point
kernel calculations were employed for dosimetry on
subcellular level.Results: I-125-labeled TFO were shown to
induce a pronounced decrease in cell survival and a marked
increase of DSB with increasing numbers of accumulated
decays per cell. Reduction in cell survival as measured in
the CFA reached the D37 value at ~ 350 cumulated decays per
cell, equivalent to ~ 1.2 Gy cell nucleus dose. P-32 labeled
TFO displayed a weak cell killing ability and caused a small
increase of 53BP1 foci up to ~ 4000 accumulated decays per
cell, equivalent to ~ 1 Gy cell nucleus dose. The impact of
P-32 was comparable to external γ-irradiation.Conclusions:
The reduction of cell survival and the increase of DNA
damage proved to be much more pronounced in I-125-TFO
exposed cells in comparison to P-32-labeled TFO per decay
and per dose unit. This finding might be well explained by
the high number of low energy Auger electrons emitted by
I-125 per decay, leading to a high ionization density in the
immediate vicinity of the decay site, probably producing
highly complex DNA lesions, overcharging the cellular
DNA-damage repair mechanism. The similar biological
effectiveness of P-32-TFO exposure and external
γ-irradiation proves the validity of the performed dose
calculation on cellular level.[1] Dahmen V, Kriehuber R. Int
