BackgroundThis work was aimed at exploring the regulatory network of non-coding RNA (ncRNA) especially circular RNA (circRNA) and microRNA (miRNA), in the sensitivity of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells to low linear energy transfer (LET) X-ray and high-LET carbon ion irradiations.MethodsThe radioresistant NSCLC cell line A549-R11 was obtained from its parental cell line A549 through irradiation with X-rays of 2.0 Gy per fraction for 30 times. The sensitivities of A549, A549-R11 and H1299 cells exposed to X-rays and carbon ions were verified using the colony formation assay. A comprehensive circRNA-miRNA-mRNA network was constructed through the sequencing data in parental A549, acquired radioresistant A549-R11 and intrinsic radioresistant H1299 cells, and the network was further optimized according to the prognostic results from the TCGA and GEO databases.ResultsBased on high-throughput sequencing of circRNAs, we found that 40 circRNAs were up-regulated while 184 circRNAs were down-regulated in the intersection of the sets of A549-R11 and H1299 cells. Subsequently, a circRNA- miRNA-mRNA network, including 14 interactive pairs and 8 circRNAs, 4 overall survival-associated miRNAs, and 4 mRNAs, was constructed through the high-throughput data screening and bioinformatics methods.ConclusionsOur results provide a complete understanding to the regulatory mechanism of the sensitivities to low-LET X-ray and high-LET carbon ion irradiations, and might be helpful to screen potential biomarkers for predicting the Carbon-ion radiotherapy (CIRT) and X-ray radiotherapy responses in NSCLC.
