The effect of carbon ion irradiation on cell motility through the Rho signaling pathway in the human lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549 was studied. At 48 h after irradiation, the cell motility of A549 cells became significantly greater, and the formation of protrusions significantly increased in cells irradiated with carbon ion. The observed increase in cell motility due to carbon ion irradiation was similar to that observed due to X-ray irradiation. Western-blot analysis showed that carbon ion irradiation increased P-MLC2-S19 expression compared with in unirradiated controls, while total MLC2 expression was unchanged. Exposure to a non-toxic concentration of Y-27632, a specific inhibitor of ROCK, reduced the expression of P-MLC2-S19 after C-ion irradiation, resulting in a significant reduction in migration. These data suggest that carbon irradiation increases cell motility in A549 cells via the Rho signaling pathway and that ROCK inhibition reduces that effect.

In this study, we carried out an attempt to identify the defects responsible for the degraded charge collection efficiency of the 6H-SiC p$$^{+}$$n diode irradiated with 1 MeV electrons by the alpha particle induced charge transient spectroscopy. To form defects in the SiC crystal, one of the diodes was irradiated with 1 MeV electrons at a fluence of 1$$times$$10$$^{15}$$ /cm$$^{2}$$. Collected charges of the diodes were measured in room temperature using 5.486 MeV alpha particles from $$^{241}$$Am source. After the electron irradiation, the collected charge of the diode at a reverse bias of 100 V decreased to 84% of its initial value. In order to investigate the relationship between degradation of collected charge and defects in detail, time-dependent collected charges of the diodes were measured in temperature ranges from 170 K to 310 K. As a result, two distinct peaks labeled X$$_{1}$$ and X$$_{2}$$ are found for the electron-irradiated diode, and their activation energies are estimated to be 0.30 and 0.47 eV, respectively. These two peaks are considered to correspond to the defect levels introduced by the electron irradiation. In particular, when the diodes are used in room temperature, X$$_{2}$$ is more critical to the charge collection than X$$_{1}$$.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of carbon ion (C-ion) irradiation on cell motility through the ras homolog gene family member (Rho) signaling pathway in the human lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549. Cell motility was assessed by a wound-healing assay, and the formation of cell protrusions was evaluated by F-actin staining. Cell viability was examined by the WST-1 assay. The expression of myosin light chain 2 (MLC2) and the phosphorylation of MLC2 at Ser19 (P MLC2-S19) were analyzed by Western blot. The data suggest that C-ion irradiation increases cell motility in A549 cells via the Rho signaling pathway and that ROCK inhibition reduces that effect.
