The effect of collagen on the response of somatomammotroph tumor cells (GH3) to gamma, radiation therapy was studied in vitro. After incubating confluent GH3 cell monolayers in a serum-free, maintaining medium, either with or without collagen, the monolayers were irradiated with 137Cs, gamma radiation. Collagen reduces cell mortality via ERK1/2 activation, abolishing gamma radiation, cell death, and promotes cell invasion when acting in synergy with collagen and in association with the, MAPK/ERK1/2 signaling pathway activation. The presence of collagen in somatomammotroph tumors, confers resistance to radiation.
► Collagen effect on GH3 cells response to gamma radiation therapy was studied.
► Collagen ERK activation abolishes gamma radiation GH3 cell death.
► Gamma radiation promotes cell invasion and ERK activation in synergy with collagen.
► The presence of collagen in somatomammotroph tumors confers radiotherapy resistance.
► Analysis of tumor surrounding tissue before applying radiotherapy would be advisable.
