<h4>Unlabelled</h4>(211)At is a promising therapeutic radionuclide because of the nearly optimal biological effectiveness of emitted α-particles. Unbound (211)At accumulates in the thyroid gland and in other vital normal tissues. However, few studies have been performed that assess the (211)At-induced normal-tissue damage in vivo. Knowledge about the extent and quality of resulting responses in various organs offers a new venue for reducing risks and side effects and increasing the overall well- ...[more]

Project description:Transcriptomic profiling of normal mouse thyroid tissue following 211At irradiation Astatine-211 (211At) is an alpha particle emitting halogen with almost optimal linear energy transfer (LET) for creating DNA double strand breaks, and is thus proposed for radionuclide therapy when bound to tumor-seeking agents. Un-bound 211At accumulates in the thyroid gland. The concept of basal radiation-induced biological effects in thyroid tissue is to a high degree unknown and is most valuable. Female BALB/c nude mice were i.v. injected with 0.064-42 kBq of 211At resulting in absorbed doses to the thyroid gland of 0.05-32 Gy. Thyroids were removed at 24 h after injection and total RNA was extracted from pooled thyroids and processed in triplicate using Illumina MouseRef-8 Whole-Genome Expression Beadchips. Nexus Expression 2.0 was used for data analysis. Thyroids exposed to 211At revealed distinctive gene expression profiles compared to non-irradiated controls. More genes were affected at low absorbed doses (0.05 and 0.5 Gy) compared to intermediate (1.4 Gy) and high absorbed doses (11 and 32 Gy) and the proportion of dose-specific genes increased with decreased absorbed dose. This result might be the manifestation of increased heterogeneous irradiation with decreasing absorbed dose, indicating a bystander effect. Also, 1.4 Gy often had an opposite regulation compared to the other absorbed doses. No inflammatory effects were seen while 0.05 and 11 Gy affected the immune system. Effects on the cellular response to outer stress and cell cycle regulation and proliferation were seen at 1.4 and 11 Gy. These results indicate that the cellular response to ionizing radiation is complex and differs with absorbed doses. Total RNA was isolated from fresh-frozen tissue samples (Normal balb/c mouse thyroids)

Project description:Transcriptomic profiling of normal mouse thyroid tissue following 211At irradiation Introduction The cellular response to stimuli can be studied on different molecular levels, including gene expression regulation. RNA microarray is a high-throughput technique that enables comparison of genome-wide transcriptional status between samples. 211At-labeled radiopharmaceuticals are potentially useful for tumor therapy. Metabolically released 211At accumulates in the thyroid gland, which is one of the main critical organs for such therapy. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of absorbed dose, dose-rate, and time after 211At exposure on transcriptional expression in mouse thyroid gland. Method BALB/c mice were i.v. injected with 1.7, 7.5 or 100 kBq 211At. Animals injected with 1.7 kBq were killed after 1, 6, or 168 h with mean absorbed doses to thyroid of 0.023, 0.32, and 1.4 Gy, respectively. Animals injected with 7.5 and 100 kBq were killed after 6 and 1 h, respectively, resulting in mean absorbed doses to thyroid of 1.4 Gy. Animals were killed through cardiac puncture under anesthesia, and thyroids were removed and snap-frozen. Total RNA was extracted from pooled thyroid tissue samples and mRNA levels were determined with the Illumina RNA microarray platform. Nexus Expression 3.0 was used to identify differentially expressed transcripts (adjusted p-value <0.01, fold change >1.5) and enriched GO terms (p-value <0.05) between irradiated groups and controls. Results In total, 1232 differentially expressed transcripts were detected after 211At administration, demonstrating a profound effect on gene regulation. The number of regulated transcripts increased with higher initial dose-rate/absorbed dose when the exposure time was 1 or 6 h. However, the number of regulated transcripts decreased with mean absorbed dose/time after 1.7 kBq 211At administration. This suggests that initial dose-rate (thus injected activity) is an important parameter in radiation-induced responses. Furthermore, the regulation profiles of groups administered 1.7 kBq were similar. Few previously proposed radiation responsive genes were identified in the present study, but, e.g. Gadd45g and Cdkn1a were among the regulated genes identified in the present study. A response involving immunological processes was identified especially at 1, 6, and 168 h after 1.7 kBq administration (0.023, 0.32, 1.8 Gy). Conclusion The present study allowed a comprehensive assessment of how variations in exposure parameters affect transcriptional regulation. The regulation profiles were dependent on both absorbed dose and time after exposure, but, initial dose-rate was the most influential parameter. Functional annotation of regulated genes revealed exposure-specific effects on biological processes. Additionally, we have identified several recurrently regulated genes after 211At exposure that may play a role in how mouse thyroid tissue responds to 211At exposure.

Project description:RNA microarray analysis of low-dose and dose rate responses versus time after i.v. administration of 211At. Female BALB/c nude mice were intravenously injected with 1.7 kBq 211At and killed after 1 h, 6 h, or 7 d, or injected with 105 or 7.5 kBq and killed after 1 h and 6 h, respectively. Controls were mock-treated. Kidneys, liver, lungs, and spleen were excised, flash-frozen, and stored at -80°C. Total RNA was extracted and subjected to expression analysis using RNA microarray technology. Enriched biological processes were categorized after cellular function based on Gene Ontology terms. Total RNA was isolated from fresh-frozen tissue samples. Three mice per group were used for 1.7 kBq 211At injections and controls; two mice per group for 105 and 7.5 kBq injections.

Project description:Most studies have analysed the effects of high dose radiation such as atomic bomb survivors in Japan, people exposed during the Chernobyl nuclear accident, patients undergoing radiation therapy, uranium miners, etc. However, it has been difficult to measure and assess the risk of cancer in people exposed to lower doses of ionising radiation, such as the people living at high altitudes, who are exposed to more natural background radiation from cosmic rays than people at sea level. We measured the genomic response to X-ray ionising radiation (10 cGy and 100 cGy) in a skin tissue model to compare the effects of low and high dose ionising radiation at different time points. The microarray data was then analysed using state-of-the art “upside-down pyramid” computational systems biology methods to identify genes contributing to the difference in the response to the different radiation doses. The model is reconstructed skin tissue, which is composed of keratinocytes that make up the epidermal layer, and fibroblasts that make up the dermal layer of the skin. Tissues were irradiated with 0, 10, and 100 cGy X-ray radiation. Skin plugs were harvested at 0, 3, 8, and 24 hours post irradiation.
