Abstract
Canine appendicular osteosarcoma (OSCA) is a highly aggressive cancer, constituting 85% of all bone tumors in dogs, predominantly affecting larger breeds and exhibiting a high metastatic rate. This disease also shares many genomic similarities with human osteosarcomas, making it an ideal comparative model for treatment discovery. In this study, we characterized the radiobiological properties of several OSCA cell lines when subjected to spatially fractionated radiation therapy (SFRT) and chemotherapy. Specifically, we focused on lower (peak) doses from SFRT ranging from 1 to 10 Gy. These canine OSCA cell lines serve as useful models for osteosarcoma research that can be utilized to find translational treatments for both canine and human patients. This study reaffirms established clinical wisdom regarding the notoriously radioresistant profile of osteosarcomas but additionally offers compelling evidence supporting SFRT as a promising treatment option that could be used in conjunction with other cytotoxic agents.
期刊介绍:
Radiation Research publishes original articles dealing with radiation effects and related subjects in the areas of physics, chemistry, biology
and medicine, including epidemiology and translational research. The term radiation is used in its broadest sense and includes specifically
ionizing radiation and ultraviolet, visible and infrared light as well as microwaves, ultrasound and heat. Effects may be physical, chemical or
biological. Related subjects include (but are not limited to) dosimetry methods and instrumentation, isotope techniques and studies with
chemical agents contributing to the understanding of radiation effects.
