<P>Combined radiotherapy and chemotherapy have represented major advance in the therapeutic management of cancer therapy. Anthracycline antineoplastic agents are limited by a high incidence of severe and usually irreversible cardiac toxicity, the cause of which remains controversial. When the primary cardiomyocytes isolated from neonatal rats were preirradiated by γ-ray, the cells were highly resistant to adriamycin-induced apoptosis. This study shows that irradiation inhibited apoptosis by enhancing Bcl-2, attenuating Bax induction, and preventing collapse of mitochondrial membrane potential (Δ&PSgr;), cytochrome c release into cytoplasm and caspase-3, -6 and -9 activations. In addition, the preirradiation stimulated the activity of manganese-superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) and the expression of Mn-SOD mRNA and protein. Adriamycin decreased Mn-SOD activity but did not change the activity of copper/zinc (Cu/Zn)-SOD under either pre- or nonirradiated condition. Phosphothioate-linked antisense against Mn-SOD, which specifically knocked down the activity of Mn-SOD but not that of Cu/Zn-SOD, reversed irradiation-induced protective effect in adriamycin-exposed cardiomyocytes. These data suggest that the irradiation-induced expression of Mn-SOD plays an important role in irradiation-mediated protection in adriamycin-exposed rat ventricular cardiomyocytes.</P>
