Chronic hypoxia modulates tumour cell radioresponse through cytokine-inducible nitric oxide synthase.

Abstract

Chronic hypoxia up-regulated the mRNA and protein expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in EMT-6 tumour cells exposed to interferon (IFN)-gamma and interleukin (IL)-I beta. Low concentrations of cytokines (1 unit ml(-1)) in 1% but not in 21% oxygen induced a remarkable increase in NO production and a 1.8-fold hypoxic cell radiosensitization. Therefore, chronic hypoxia may potentially be exploited to increase tumour cell radioresponse through the cytokine-inducible iNOS pathway. Copyright 2001 Cancer Research Campaign.
