暴露于电离辐射(γ射线),γH2AX灶形式迅速和疫源地号码后达到最大,在30-60 分钟之间2。因此,1小时后照射时间点反映初始DSB的形成。我们的实验中,我们已经用2 Gy的临床相关的辐射剂量。然而,该方法可用于辐射剂量高达4戈瑞检测初始DSB的形成;灶明显的重叠排除在较高剂量准确定量。可用于更高的辐射剂量辐照后的潜伏期较长时间,γH2AX灶因维修,造成量化的数字。通常情况下,4小时和24小时照射后孵育时间用于监测DNA修复。我们使用的DNA染色TOPRO - 3由于在我们的激光共聚焦显微镜激发激光器的限制。更常见的是,4,6 - diamidino - 2 - 苯基吲哚盐酸盐(DAPI)是用于核counterstaining。虽然我们使用共聚焦显微镜,ž与啶显微镜切片的能力是足够的。免疫荧光法适用于其他附着的癌细胞与正常细胞株,我们已经测试T98G人脑胶质瘤和正常的人类内皮细胞和大鼠H9C2胚胎心肌细胞。
最后,γH2AX定量在电离辐射诱导的DNA损伤,我们的实验和维修(放射敏感性)的DNA损伤监测所示的情况下是有用的。本试剂盒也可用于评估辐射(即辐射保护和增敏剂)调节细胞反应的化合物的疗效。此外,γH2AX是新兴作为一个潜在的衰老和疾病的分子标记,主要是在癌症 10 。
