Project description:Expression profiles in mouse liver exposed to long-term gamma-irradiation were examined to assess in vivo effects of low dose-rate radiation. Three groups of male C57BL/6J mice were exposed to whole body irradiation at dose-rates of 17-20 mGy/day, 0.86-1.0 mGy/day or 0.042-0.050 mGy/day for 401-485 days (cumulative doses were approximately 8 Gy, 0.4 Gy or 0.02 Gy, respectively). Expression profiles were produced for RNA isolated from irradiated individual animals and for pooled RNA from sham-irradiated 3 animals for control. The expression levels of 6 irradiated animals for each dose were compared individually with those of 2 pooled controls (3 irradiated samples to one pooled control in first and second experiments). The experiments were conducted twice at similar dose-rates. In the first experiment, three groups of 8 weeks old male C57BL/6J mice were exposed to whole body irradiation at dose-rates of either 16.6 mGy/day (H1), 0.858 mGy/day (M1) or 0.042 mGy/day (L1) for 485 days (cumulative doses were 8030 mGy, 416 mGy or 20.6 mGy, respectively). In the second experiment, the doe-rates were slightly elevated as 20.0 mGy/day (H2), 1.000 mGy/day (M2) or 0.050 mGy/day (L2) for 401 days (doses were 8015 mGy, 401 mGy or 20 mGy, respectively). A group of control unirradiated mice were set for each experiment (C1, C2).

Project description:Cognitive impairments are an important side effect after radiation exposure. Yet, it comes more and more into scientific focus that ionising radiation can resemble pathologies of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer´s. Here, we used a multidisciplinary approach to elucidate the effect of chronic low-dose irradiation exposure (1 mGy/day and 20 mGy/day) over 300 days (cumulative dose of 0.3 Gy and 6.0 Gy) on the murine ApoE-/- hippocampus as an Alzheimer´s model. By using mass spectrometry to quantify global expression levels of unmodified proteins, phospho-proteins and N-linked sialylated glycoproteins, we found nearly exclusive changes on the phospho-proteome at both doses. These proteins regulate signalling of synaptic plasticity and calcium-dependent signalling. We used synaptic plasticity-targeted transcriptomics, immunoblotting and ELISA to validate our findings and could identify that memory-related CREB signalling is reduced at both doses whereas Rac1-Cofilin signalling is only altered at 1 mGy/day. Interestingly, we noted a reduction in the number of activated microglia in the molecular layer of the hippocampus only at 1 mGy/day paralleled with reduced levels of TNFα mRNA and lipid peroxidation at this dose. Adult neurogenesis (Ki67, GFAP and NeuN as markers) and cell death (activated caspase-3) were not changed / initiated at both doses. Our analysis showed that several molecular targets induced by chronic low-dose radiation overlap with molecular targets of Alzheimer´s pathology. We suggest that chronic low-dose ionising radiation can be a potential confounder in Alzheimer´s disease.

Project description:In the current study a systematic investigation of life stage, tissue and cell dependent sensitivity to ionizing radiation in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans was conducted. This revealed that individuals that have reached the post-mitotic L4 stage showed no significant effects with respect to mortality, morbidity or reproduction when subjected to either acute dose ≤6 Gy(1500 mGy/h) or chronic exposure ≤4 Gy( ≤ 100 mGy/h). In contrast, chronic exposure from embryo to young adult stage caused a dose and dose rate dependent reprotoxicitiy with 43% reduction in total brood size at 6.7Gy (107 mGy/h). Systematic targeted irradiation of developmental stages showed that exposure during L1 to young L4 was sufficient to induce reprotoxic effects. Exposure during these stages was associated with a dose rate dependent genotoxic effects on gonads with 1.7 to 3.2 fold increase in germ cell apoptosis in larvae subjected to 40-100 mGy/h, respectively. Importantly, exposure to gamma radiation significantly impaired spermatogenesis in a dose rate dependent manner. The observed reduction in the number of spermatids accounted for xx% of the reprotoxic effects, thus signifying spermatids as the most radiosensitive cell type in C. elegans. Molecular responses analyzed by RNAseq of nematodes irradiated from L1 to L4 stage revealed a significant enrichment of genes related to both male and hermaphrodite reproductive processes. Gene network analysis identified adverse genotoxic effects related to down-regulation of genes required for spindle formation and sperm meiosis/maturation, including smz-1, smz-2 and htas-1. The expression of a subset of 28 set-17 regulated Major Sperm Proteins (MSP) required for spermatids production was correlated to the reduction in reproduction and the number of spermatids, thus corroborating the impairment of spermatogenesis as the major cause of gamma radiation induced life-stage dependent reprotoxic effect. Furthermore, the progeny of irradiated nematodes showed significant embryonal DNA damage that was associated with persistent effect on somatic growth. Unexpectedly, these nematodes did however maintain much of their reproductive capacity in spite of the reduced growth.

Project description:Recent work has shown that small non-coding RNAs, including miRNAs, serve an important role in controlling gene expression during development and disease. However, little detailed information exists concerning the relative expression patterns of small RNAs during development of C. elegans. Here we use recent advances in high-throughput sequencing technology to show that expression of non-coding small RNAs, including miRNAs, changes dynamically during development and in the different sexes of C. elegans; approximately 16% of known miRNAs changed over 10 fold in expression during C. elegans development and about 12% of miRNAs showed major changes in expression between males and hermaphrodites of C. elegans. These results should lead to a better understanding of the expression and function of small RNAs in C. elegans development. For data usage terms and conditions, please refer to http://www.genome.gov/27528022 and http://www.genome.gov/Pages/Research/ENCODE/ENCODEDataReleasePolicyFinal2008.pdf Examination of small RNA expression in six different developmental stages of hermaphrodites (Embryo, mid-L1, mid-L2, mid-L3, mid-L4, young adult), and young adult males (dpy-28;him-8) and spermatogenesis-defective young adult hermaphrodites (spe-9). The number of sequence reads for miRNA was assessed from the raw sequence data from Solexa sequencing using perfect sequence matching to known miRNAs (miRBase Release 11.0).

Project description:This experiment investigates changes in gene expression upon Orsay virus infection and between males and hermaphrodites in the nematode Ceanorhabditis elegans. The laboratory reference strain N2 was used. For this strain, males are less susceptible to Orsay virus infection than hermaphrodites. The goal of the experiment was to identify genes that show different expression patterns for both sexes upon Orsay virus infection. We mock-treated or infected 48h-old C. elegans populations with Orsay virus and took samples 30-hours after infection. For each treatment-sex combination 8 samples were collected. Thereafter RNA was isolated, labelled, and hybridized on microarray. The gene-expression dynamics of previously identified genes (e.g. from literature and from a highly replicated N2 versus CB4856 experiment) were analyzed.

Project description:A set of changes is identified in the transcription profile associated with the long-term, but not the acute, response to radiation exposure. The study was performed in vivo using zebrafish. To study the long-term response, 24 hour post-fertilization embryos were exposed to 0.1 Gy (low dose) or 1.0 Gy (moderate dose) of whole-body gamma radiation and allowed to develop for 16 weeks. Liver mRNA profiles were then analyzed using the Affymetrix microarray platform, with validation by quantitative PCR. To be able to compare this to the acute response, 16-week old adults were exposed at the same doses and analyzed after 4 hours. We used 5 treatment groups: A=non-irradiated control, allowed to develop for 16 weeks; B=low-dose (0.1 Gy) irradiated, allowed to develop for 16 weeks; C=high-dose (1.0 Gy) irradiate, allowed to develop for 16 weeks; D=16 week old adults irradiated at low dose (0.1 Gy); E=16 week old adults irradiate at high dose (1.0 Gy)

Project description:Radiation biodosimetry can play a critical role in the response to a large-scale radiologic emergency, and gene expression profiles have shown promise for providing biodosimetric information. This study was designed to test if gene expression could be used to distinguish between doses received from acute exposures and more protracted exposures, such as those that would result from fallout. Mice were exposed to whole body X-rays at low dose rate (LDR, 3.09 mGy/min) for 6, 12, or 24 hours (1.1, 2.2, or 4.4 Gy), or to equivalent doses delivered at high dose rate (HDR, 1.03 Gy/min). Global gene expression was measured in their blood 24 h after the start of exposure, and genes with the potential to classify samples by radiation dose and dose rate were identified.

Project description:In zebrafish, parental exposure to ionizing radiation has been associated with effects in offspring, such as increased DNA damage and reactive oxygen species. Here, we assessed short (one month) and long term effects (one year) on gene expression in embryonic offspring (5.5 hours post fertilization) from zebrafish exposed during gametogenesis to gamma radiation (8.7 or 53 mGy/h for 27 days, total dose 5.2 or 31 Gy). One month after exposure, a global change in gene expression was observed in offspring from the 53 mGy/h group, followed by embryonic death at late gastrula, whereas offspring from the 8.7 mGy/h group was unaffected. One year after exposure, embryos from the 8.7 mGy/h group exhibited 2455(61.8% downregulated) differentially expressed genes. Overlaps in differentially expressed genes and enriched biological pathways were evident between the 53 mGy/h group one month and 8.7 mGy/h one year after exposure, which could be linked to effects in adults and offspring, such as DNA damage and lipid peroxidation. Interestingly, pathways between the two groups were oppositely regulated. Our results indicate latent effects following ionizing radiation exposure in parents that can be transmitted to offspring and warrants monitoring effects over subsequent generations.
