ABSTRACT: To understand the molecular mechanism underlying inflammatory reaction in vascular system post exposure to ionizing radiation, we carried out microarray analysis in HUVEC exposed with X-ray HUVEC were irradiated with X-ray (2.5 Gy) and then cultured for 6, 12, and 24 hr. Total RNA were extracted from the tissue by QIAGEN Rneasy mini kit.

Project description:In recent years there is a growing epidemiological indication of excess risk of cardiovascular disease at low doses of ionizing radiation without a clear-cut threshold. It is proposed that damage to the vascular endothelium is critical in radiation-related cardiovascular diseases. In order to identify and better understand the underlying molecular mechanisms of high LET (Fe ions) and low LET (X-ray) radiation on endothelial cells, we performed a microarray analysis on immortalized human coronary artery endothelial cells irradiated with 2.00 Gy and compared them with sham-irradiated samples. RNA was extracted at different time points after irradiation (1 day, 7 days).
Project description:In order to identified as candidate biomarkers for early diagonosis or as therapeutic targets in late damages of ionizing radiation, gene expression profile was analyzed in the peripheral blood of three 60Co γ-ray accidently-exposed persons. The results showed that there were 285 up-regulated and 446 down-regulated genes in irradiated samples compared with control samples. The large majority of those differentially expressed genes encode proteins that are associated with immune response, inflammation, cell structure, oxidative stress, neuro-hormone regulation, reproduction, susceptibility of psychiatric disorders, and transcriptional regulators. The expressions of IL3, KDR, CEACAM8 and OSM were validated by real-time RT-PCR method. The findings of our study should help us understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying the late effects of ionizing radiation and to develop better diagonostic and therapeutic strategies for those damages. Fresh blood samples were collected from three 60Coγ-Ray accidentally-exposed persons(3 years post irradiation) and three non-irradiated healthy donors. Leucocytes cells were isolated and total RNA was extracted. Four RNA samples, from three accidently-exposed persons and a RNA mixture extracted from a combination of three healthy donors` leucocytes (ratio 1:1:1, each 3.3×106 cells) in EL buffer, were subjected to Agilent gene expression microarray assay.
Project description:This dataset is composed by the transcriptomic, proteomic and phosphoproteomic profile of primary human fibroblasts exposed to two different doses of radiation: an acute X-ray radiation dose, and an accumulative X-ray radiation dose. These data were employed to apply and evaluate different computational approaches to model and infer cellular signaling processes through the combination of prior knowledge and omic data. We employed RNA-Seq and Mass Spectrometry (MS) to generate the transcriptomic and proteomic data from the RNA and protein samples, respectively.

Project description:MicroRNA (miRNA) is a type of non-coding RNA that regulates the expression of its target genes by interacting with the complementary sequence of the target mRNA molecules. Recent evidence has shown that genotoxic stress induces miRNA expression, but the target genes involved and role in cellular responses remain unclear. We examined the role of miRNA in the cellular response to X-ray irradiation by studying the expression profiles of radio-responsive miRNAs and their target genes in cultured human cell lines. We found that expression of miR-574-3p was induced in the lung cancer cell line A549 by X-ray irradiation. Overexpression of miR-574-3p caused delayed growth in A549 cells. A predicted target site was detected in the 3'-untranslated region of the enhancer of the rudimentary homolog (ERH) gene, and transfected cells showed an interaction between the luciferase reporter containing the target sequences and miR-574-3p. Overexpression of miR-574-3p suppressed ERH protein production and delayed cell growth. This delay was confirmed by knockdown of ERH expression. Our study suggests that miR-574-3p may contribute to the regulation of the cell cycle in response to X-ray irradiation via suppression of ERH protein production. miRNA expression were measured at 1 and 3 h after exposure to doses of 0, 2 or 20 Gy. Microarray experiments were performed with duplicate for each experiment.
