ABSTRACT: In an attempt to gain insight into the mechanism whereby irradiated cells influence the outcome of DSB repair in their non-irradiated neighbors, we performed whole genome expression profiling. Total of 9 samples are analyzed, including 0, 0.3 and 1.0 Gy dose groups, each with 3 biological replicates.

Project description:To further study and understand the DNA damage responses, we developed aniFOUND, a new method for capturing under native conditions the repaired DNA and the proteins associated with it after UVC irradiation. hTert-immortalised human skin fibroblasts were irradiated with 20 J/m2 UVC and the nascent DNA that resulted from the Unscheduled DNA Synthesis was specifically labeled with nucleotide analogues (EdU). This newly repaired/synthesized DNA together with the bound proteins were pulled-down with streptavidin beads. For negative controls we used both irradiated, but non-labelled samples (+UV/-EdU) and labelled, but not irradiated cells (-UV/+EdU). The pulldowns were eluted from the beads by boiling in 0.1 % SDS.
Project description:CEA_SGF:E00006# This set of experiments was performed in order to identify radiation responsive genes. For this, differentiated cultures derived from a single donor were irradiated at either 1 cGy, 2 Gy or sham-irradiated at T0 and total RNA extracts were prepared at 6 time points post-irradiation. Irradiated samples for each dose were hybridized seperately with sham-irradiated samples at the same time point. Each time point for each individual dose was assessed with two independent dye-swap hybridizations. Keywords: time-course
Project description:The bystander effect from ionizing radiation consists of cellular responses generated from unirradiated cells to the irradiation of their neighbors. The bystander effect can lead to DNA damage and genomic instability in the affected cells. This non-targeted effect of radiation has received attention due to its potential implications for cancer therapy and radiation protection. Although studied extensively, a complete understanding of its molecular mechanism is the subject of ongoing research. While many studies have targeted specific factors which are suggested to be involved in the bystander effect, few have looked at whole genome gene expression in bystander cells. Furthermore, even fewer studies have looked at the expression in noncancerous human cell lines. In this study we have used a genome-wide microarray approach to investigate transcriptional responses in irradiated and bystander immortalized human fibroblasts following 0.1 Gy ?-particle irradiation. Total RNA was isolated from F11hTERT fibroblasts irradiated with 0.1 Gy ?-particles and bystander fibroblasts receiving medium from control (sham irradiated) and irradiated cells (0.1 Gy). RNA was isolated 4, 8 and 26 h after irradiation.

Project description:Osteoradionecrosis of the jaw (ORNJ) is a complication after head and neck radiotherapy that severely affects patients’ quality of life. Currently, an overall understanding of microenvironmental factors of ORNJ is still lacking. Here, we reveal the activation of taurine metabolism in irradiated mandibular stromal cells with scRNA-Seq and the decrease of taurine in irradiated bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs) with metabolomics. Compared to the unirradiated BMSCs, the taurine uptake of irradiated BMSCs increases. The taurine concentration in peripheral blood and jaws of irradiated mice are significantly lower than the unirradiated mice. Supplementation of taurine promotes osteogenic differentiation, decreases oxidative stress and DNA damage of irradiated BMSCs. Oral administration of taurine significantly promotes survival rate of irradiated mice and promotes osteogenesis of irradiated jaws. Our study sheds light on the role of taurine during the recovery of radiation-induced jaw injury, suggesting a potential non-invasive therapeutic means to combat ORNJ.
