Abstract Cancer stem-like cells (CSCs) within solid tumors exhibit radioresistance, leading to recurrence and distant metastasis after radiotherapy. To experimentally study the characteristics of CSCs, radioresistant cell lines were successfully established using fractionated X-ray irradiation. The fundamental characteristics of CSCs in vitro have been previously reported; however, the relationship between CSC and acquired radioresistance remains uncertain. To efficiently study this relationship, we performed both in vitro experiments and theoretical analysis using a cell-killing model. Four types of human oral squamous carcinoma cell lines, non-radioresistant cell lines (SAS and HSC2), and radioresistant cell lines (SAS-R and HSC2-R), were used to measure the surviving fraction after single-dose irradiation, split-dose irradiation, and multi-fractionated irradiation. The SAS-R and HSC2-R cell lines were more positive for one of the CSC marker aldehyde dehydrogenase activity than the corresponding non-radioresistant cell lines. The theoretical model analysis showed that changes in both the experimental-based ALDH (+) fractions and DNA repair efficiency of ALDH (−) fractions (i.e., sub-lethal damage repair) are required to reproduce the measured cell survival data of non-radioresistant and radioresistant cell lines. These results suggest that the enhanced cell recovery in SAS-R and HSC2-R is important when predicting tumor control probability in radiotherapy to require a long dose-delivery time; in other words, intensity-modulated radiation therapy is ideal. This work provides a precise understanding of the mechanism of radioresistance, which is induced after irradiation of cancer cells. |
