DNA gel electrophoretic and microaut oradiographic studies on apoptosis in bone tumor cells after exposure with ^153Sm—EDTMP

The apoptosis in bone tumor cells is studied after ^153Sm-EDTMP irradiation.Fragmented DNA is analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis.Experimental observations show that 153Sm-EDTMP exposure induces the internucleosomal DNA damage in bone tumor cells the DNA ladder pattern formation in bone tumor cells is show.At the same time,the microautoradiographic study indicates that ^153Sm-EDTMP could permeate through cell membrane and duisplays membrane-seeking condensation in bone tumor cells.Soon afterwards ^153Sm-EDTMP could be phagocytized by the tuymor cells and distributed in cytoplasm as well as nucleus in the form of phagosome.with the prolongation of observing time,the membrane-bounded apoptotic bodies are observed.
