Abstract

The close association between telomere length and radiosensitivity has been established by several studies. There is also a hypothesis that telomere length may be regulated by human protection of telomere 1 (hPOT1) in human carcinoma cells. In the present study, the hPOT1 level between the radioresistant Hep‑2R cells and the wild‑type were compared, and the results showed that the hPOT1 gene was upregulated in the radioresistant Hep‑2R cell lines compared with the wild‑type. This suggested that the expression level of hPOT1 correlates with radiosensitivity. Additionally, an hPOT1‑directed short hairpin (sh)RNA plasmid was constructed and transferred into the Hep‑2R cells, which lead to telomere shortening, an increase in apoptosis and markedly decreased growth of the RNAi‑Hep‑2R cell line. These results demonstrate that hPOT1‑directed shRNAs are associated with telomere length and radiosensitivity, and maybe a potent sensitizer for laryngeal cancer radiotherapy.
