| Abstract |
Radiotherapy is an important therapeutic method for lung cancer. However, in clinical situations, cellular resistance to radiotherapy is a significant component of tumor treatment failure. Thus, clarification in cellular mechanism underlying radiosensitivity of cancer cell is urgently needed. In this study, we established a radiation model of Lewis lung carcinoma in C57BL/6 mice and investigated the possible signaling molecule involved in this process. C57BL/6 mice were subcutaneously transplanted with Lewis lung carcinoma cells and locally irradiated followed by measurement in tumor volume. Levels of miR-545 and Ku70 mRNA expression were determined by using Quantitative Real-Time PCR. Expression of Ku70 was determined by using western blot assay. Cell viability was analyzed by MTT assay. Cell apoptosis was examined by using TUNEL assay. In mice bearing Lewis lung carcinoma tumor, local radiotherapy suppressed tumor growth as well as enhanced expression of miR-545 and downregulated Ku70 level. Inhibition of miR-545 expression reduced radiosensitivity of Lewis tumor. In vitro Lewis lung carcinoma cells experiment, we observed that miR-545 regulated Ku70 expression by targeting Ku70 3'UTR and this process was involved in radiotherapy. This was demonstrated by result of cell proliferation assay in which irradiation reduced apoptosis of cells was mediated by miR-545 inactivation which was reversed by Ku70 silence. miR-545 increased radiosensitivity of Lewis lung carcinoma via inhibiting Ku70 expression. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 28 May 2015.
All research outputs
#18,411,569
of 22,807,037 outputs
Outputs from Cancer Cell International
#1,087
of 1,800 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#192,580
of 266,679 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Cancer Cell International
#18
of 26 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,807,037 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,800 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.8. This one is in the 24th percentile – i.e., 24% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 266,679 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 16th percentile – i.e., 16% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 26 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
