Abstract: Human gastric cancer cell SGC7901 were irradiated with high linear energy transfer (LET) carbon ion. Apoptotic cells after irradiation were analyzed by flow cytometry and expression of MSH2 genes in the irradiated cells was detected by western blot and RT-PCR assay. Compared with the control group, we found that the number of G2/M (33.26±0.08) or apoptosis (24.16±0.64) of SGC7901 cells reached a maximum after irradiation at 72 h in a dose dependent manner. And heavy ion irradiation efficiently up-regulated the expression of MSH2 gene at 4.0 Gy after being irradiated 6 h. These results imply that heavy ion beam could induce cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in time-dependent manners. Furthermore, expression of MSH2 genes activated by carbon ion irradiation suggests that DNA mismatch repair gene MSH2 might be involved in DNA repair pathways.
