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 as
well as to 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 J Radiat Biol. 2012
