Souhrn

The current study aimed to identify the radiosensitizing effect of celecoxib, a selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor, in combination with radiotherapy in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells. The combination of celecoxib potentiated radiation-induced apoptosis; however, no changes in cell cycle distribution and number of phosphorylated histone H2AX foci were detected, indicating a DNA damage-independent mechanism. In an in vivo mouse model, the tumor size was significantly decreased in the group combining celecoxib with radiation compared with the radiation only group. Phosphorylation of protein kinase B (Akt) and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), as well as expression of COX-2 were significantly downregulated in cells treated with the combination of celecoxib and radiation compared with the radiation only group. The result indicated that celecoxib exhibits radiosensitizing effects through COX-2 and Akt/mTOR-dependent mechanisms. Induction the Akt/mTOR signaling pathway promotes radioresistance in various cancers, including NSCLC. Therefore, the current study suggested the therapeutic potential of combination therapy of celecoxib and radiation in the prevention of radioresistance.
