OBJECTIVE: Radiotherapy is an important treatment for cancer. The main irradiated action is thought to be the irreversible damage to tumor cell DNA, but recent studies showed that high dose radiotherapy related to the tumor immune response. This study was designed to determine the relationship between Lewis lung tumor radiosensitivity and CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) infiltration and elucidate the underlying mechanisms in vitro. METHODS: With tumor transplantation method to establish mice Lewis lung tumor mice model, to observe the inhibition rate of radiotherapy to tumor growth. Proliferation profiles of CD4+CD25+ Tregs and CD4+ T cells were assessed by flow cytometry. MiR-545 and CCL-22 mRNA were determined by Quantitative Real-Time PCR. CCL-22 protein was determined by western blot assay. RESULTS: Radiotherapy caused a time-dependent inhibition of tumor growth as well as a decrease in the percentage of tumor-infiltrating CD4+CD25+ Tregs of CD4+ T cells compared with no treatment group. And the miR-545 was significantly upregulated and CCL-22 was significantly down-regulated in irradiated tumor and Lewis lung cancer cells. In Lewis lung cancer cell transfection experiments, mimic or inhibitor for miR-545 negatively regulated CCL-22 expression when cells treated or treated without irradiation. Silenced miR-545 promotes CD4+CD25+ Treg proliferation. Additionally, silenced miR-545 reversed radiosensitivity of Lewis lung cancer. CONCLUSION: Radiotherapy suppressed specific recruitment of regulator CD4+CD25+ Treg cells in Lewis lung carcinoma via up-regulating microR-545.
