After fractionated irradiation (total dose of 60 Gy), radioresistant cells had decreased radiosensitivity, increased G0/G1 phase arrest, enhanced DNA damage repair ability, and through the ATM/CHK2 and DNA-PKcs/Ku70 pathways regulated double strands break. The upregulated differential genes in radioresistant cell lines were mainly enriched in biological pathways such as cell migration and extracellular matrix (ECM)-receptor interaction. In vivo verification of decreased radiosensitivity of radioresistant cells CONCLUSIONS: Radioresistant LUSC cell lines were established by fractional radiotherapy, which regulates IR-induced DNA damage repair through ATM/CHK2 and DNA-PKcs/Ku70. Tandem Mass Tags (TMT) quantitative proteomics found that the biological process pathway of cell migration and ECM-receptor interaction are upregulated in LUSC radioresistant cells.
