Project description:Tumor-draining lymph nodes (TdLNs) were collected from wild-type (WT) and tenascin-C knockout (TNC-KO) C57BL/6 mice (N = 3 per group), each bearing 4NQO-induced tongue tumors. Both male and female mice were included. Beginning at 12 weeks of age, mice were exposed to 4NQO via drinking water for 16 weeks. Tumors were then subjected to a single 2 Gy irradiation. TdLNs were harvested six weeks after irradiation, and total RNA was isolated for bulk RNA-seq analysis.

Project description:We hypothesized that gene expression changes in EMT6.5 tumors after Microbeam Radiotherapy (MRT) are different from those seen after broad beam (BB) at 4-48 h postirradiation. Our findings demonstrate molecular differences in the tumor response to MRT vs. BB and provide insight into the underlying mechanisms of MRT and BB. Total RNA obtained from isolated EMT6.5 tumours irradiated by MRT or BB at 4, 24 or 48 hours post-irradiation compared to unirradiated control tumours.

Project description:While modern radiotherapy technologies can precisely deliver higher doses of radiation to tumors; thus, reducing overall radiation exposure to normal tissues, moderate dose and normal tissue toxicity still remains a significant limitation. The present study profiled the global effects on transcript and miR expression in Human Coronary Artery Endothelial Cells (HCAECs) using single-dose irradiation (SD, 10Gy) or multi-fractionated irradiation (MF, 2Gy x 5) regimens. Longitudinal timepoints were collected after a SD or final dose of MF irradiation for analysis using Agilent Human Gene Expression and miRNA microarray platforms. Compared to SD, the exposure to MF resulted in robust transcript and miR expression changes in terms of the number and magnitude. For data analysis, statistically significant mRNAs (2-fold) and miRs (1.5-fold) were processed by Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) to uncover miRs associated with target transcripts from several cellular pathways post-irradiation. Interestingly, MF radiation induced a cohort of mRNAs and miRs that coordinate the induction of immune response pathway under tight regulation. Additionally, mRNAs and miRs associated with DNA replication, recombination and repair, apoptosis, cardiovascular events and angiogenesis were revealed. Human Coronary Artery Endothelial Cells (HCAECs) were irradiated in a PANTAK high frequency X-ray generator (Precision X-ray Inc., N. Bedford, CT), operated at 300kV and 10MA. The dose rate was 1.6 Gy per min. Cells were plated into T75cm2 flasks (1-1.5 x 10^6 for single dose radiation and 0.6-0.8 x 10^6 for fractionated radiation). After 24h, cells were exposed to a total of 10 Gy radiation administered either as a single-dose radiation (SD), or as multi-fractionated radiation of 2 Gy x 5 (MF). These non-isoeffective doses were selected to simulate clinical hypofractionated and conventionally fractionated radiotherapy regimens. For the MF protocol, cells were exposed to 2 Gy radiation twice a day, at 6h interval. The cells were approximately 90% confluent at the time of harvesting. For both protocols, radiation-induced changes were analyzed at 6h and 24h after a SD and 6h and 24h after the final dose of fractionated irradiation. Separate controls were maintained for SD and MF radiation protocols.

Project description:The endothelium is the barrier separating blood and tissue. Radiation-induced enhanced inflammation leading to permeability of this barrier may increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. The aim of this study was to investigate the onset of endothelial inflammatory pathways after radiation exposure. Human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCECest2) were exposed to radiation doses of 0, 0.25, 0.5, 2.0 and 10 Gy (60Co-γ). The cells were harvested 4 h, 24 h, 48 h and 1 wk post-irradiation. The proteomics analysis was performed in a label-free data-independent acquisition mode. The data were validated using bioinformatics and immunoblotting. The low- and moderate-dose-treated samples showed only small proteome changes. In contrast, an activation of DNA-damage repair, inflammation, and oxidative stress pathways was seen after high-dose treatments (2 and 10 Gy). The level of the DNA damage response protein DDB2 was enhanced early at the 10 Gy dose. The expression of proteins belonging to the inflammatory response or cGAS-STING pathway (STING, STAT1, ICAM1, ISG15) increased in a dose-dependent manner showing the strongest effects at 10 Gy after one week. This study suggests a connection between radiation-induced DNA damage and induction of inflammation and supports inhibition of cGAS-STING pathway in the prevention of radiation-induced cardiovascular disease.

Project description:Background and Purpose: Cardiotoxicity is a well-known adverse effect of radiation therapy. Measurable abnormalities in the heart function indicate advanced and often irreversible heart damage. Therefore, early detection of cardiac toxicity is necessary to delay and alleviate the development of the disease. The present study investigated long-term serum proteome alterations following local heart irradiation using a mouse model with the aim to detect biomarkers of radiation-induced cardiac toxicity. Materials and Methods: Serum samples from C57BL/6J mice were collected 20 weeks after local heart irradiation with 8 Gy or 16 Gy X-ray; the controls were sham-irradiated. The samples were analyzed by quantitative proteomics based on data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry. The proteomics data were further investigated using bioinformatics and ELISA. Results: The analysis showed radiation-induced changes in the level of several serum proteins involved in the acute phase response, inflammation and cholesterol metabolism. We found significantly enhanced expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-, TGF-, IL-1 and IL-6) in the serum of the irradiated mice. The level of free fatty acids, total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein (LDL) and oxidized LDL was increased whereas that of high density lipoprotein was decreased by irradiation. Conclusions: This study provides information on systemic effects of heart irradiation. It elucidates a radiation fingerprint in the serum that may be used to elucidate adverse cardiac effects after radiation therapy.

Project description:The mammalian brain is especially sensitive to ionizing radiation during development, as shown by the increased occurrence of mental retardation and small head size in children who were in utero exposed to ionizing radiation after the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. These effects of prenatal irradiation can be mimicked by irradiation of mouse embryos during the organogenesis period. In order to better understand the early effects of ionizing radiation on the embryonic brain and immature neurons, we performed a microarray analysis on brains from mice irradiated with different doses at E11 and E14, as well as primary cortical neuron cultures after 14 h in vitro. RNA was extracted at either 2 h (brains) or 6 h (neurons) post-irradiation.

Project description:To further investigate the potential molecular basis of the protective effects of MASM on irradiation (6.5Gy) damage, gene expression analysis was conducted on rats liver tissues using microarrays. Pre-treatment with MASM prevented differential expression of 53% (766 genes) of 1445 genes differentially expressed in response to radiation. Pathway enrichment analysis indicated that these genes were mainly involved in a total of 21 pathways, such as metabolic pathways, pathways in cancer, and MAPK signaling pathway. The rats were randomly assigned to one of the three following treatment groups (10-12 animals per group): normal control, radiation and MASM dose (30 mg/kg body weight/day) + radiation. MASM dissolved in double distilled water were administered intragastrically to the male animals for 3 consecutive days before irradiation. Radiation induced gene expression in rat liver was measured at 24 hours after 6.5 Gy exposure.

Project description:Analysis of rat tumor xenografts revealed genes that are upregulated in tumors expressing EGFRvIII 12 rats received intracranial injections of 9L cells expressing EGFRvIII or an empty vector control. Three weeks after implantation and subsequent growth, tumors were aseptically removed, processed for RNA extraction, and analyzed for gene expression profiling using the RatRef12 Illumina chip array. We compared the average expression of all the transcripts between EGFRvIII-expressing and empty vector control tumors.
