Project description:It is widely believed that the carcinogenic action of ionizing radiation is due to targeted DNA damage and resulting mutations, but there is also substantial evidence that non-targeted radiation effects alter epithelial phenotype and the stromal microenvironment. Activation of transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ) is a non-targeted radiation effect that mediates cell fate decisions following DNA damage and regulates microenvironment composition; it could either suppress or promote cancer. We asked if such non-targeted radiation effects contribute to carcinogenesis by using a novel radiation chimera model. Unirradiated Trp53 null mammary epithelium was transplanted to the mammary stroma, previously divested of endogenous epithelia, of mice previously exposed to a single low (10 -100 cGy) radiation dose. By 300 days, 100% of transplants in irradiated hosts at either 10 or 100 cGy had developed Trp53 null breast carcinomas compared to 54% in unirradiated hosts. Tumor growth rate was also increased by high, but not low, dose host irradiation. In contrast, irradiation of Tgfb1 heterozygote mice prior to transplantation failed to decrease tumor latency, or increase growth rate at any dose. Host irradiation significantly reduced the latency of invasive ductal carcinoma compared to spindle cell carcinoma. However, irradiation of either host genotype significantly increased the frequency of estrogen receptor negative tumors. These data demonstrate two concepts critical to understanding radiation risks. First, non-targeted radiation effects can significantly promote the frequency and alter the features of epithelial cancer. Second, radiation-induced TGFβ activity is a key mechanism of tumor promotion. Keywords: Differential gene expression after low dose irradiation

Project description:Gene expression profiles of peripheral blood samples from C57BL/6 mice exposed with ionizing radiation. We used mice as model animal to study biologial recovery response after radiation damage. Therefore, we obtained gene expression profiles from C57BL/6 mice exposed with various levels of ionizing radiation, including low and high doses and control groups. In order to measure recovery rate, we collected peripheral blood samples at different time durations after the exposure. In order to obtain robust signatures specific to radiation response, we are interested in knowing if the radiation signarures will be present in the presence of confounders. Therefore, mice were given intraperitoneal injections of lipopolysaccharide endotoxin (LPS), or treated with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GCSF), otherwise no treatment after ionizing radiation exposure. The underlying mechanism of confounder treatment is that LPS induces strong immune response resembling the effect of infection, and GCSF stimulates mobilization of HSCs. Exploratory analysis shows that the confounding effects did affect the radiation signature to some extent. This study provides insights into the molecular basis of time- and dose- dependent response to ionizing radiation in mice hematopoietic system. A total of 536 C57BL/6 mice peripheral blood gene expression profiles were measured in 3 different batches using the Affymetrix mouse 430A 2.0 microarray. The experiment is designed to assess blood gene expression changes after exposure to ionizing radiation of 0, 100, 150, 200, 300, 450, 600, 800 and 1050 cGy. Samples were collected at 6, 24, 48, 72, 120 and 168hrs after a single dose exposure.

Project description:This is a genome-wide approach to identifying genes persistently induced in the mouse mammary gland by acute whole body low dose ionizing radiation (10cGy), 1 and 4 weeks after exposure. Gene expression that is modified under these parameters were compared between Tgfb1 wild type and heterozygote littermates in order to determine which genes induced or repressed by radiation were mediated via Tgfb1 status. Differential gene expression was analyzed in Tgfb1 heterozygote and wild type littermate 4th mammary glands, after whole body exposure to an acute dose of 10cGy ionizing radiation. Estrus cycle was normalized in all mice two days prior to irradiation by injection with an estrogen and progesterone mixture. It is widely believed that the carcinogenic action of ionizing radiation is due to targeted DNA damage and resulting mutations, but there is also substantial evidence that non-targeted radiation effects alter epithelial phenotype and the stromal microenvironment. Activation of transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGFbeta) is a non-targeted radiation effect that mediates cell fate decisions following DNA damage and regulates microenvironment composition; it could either suppress or promote cancer. Gene expression profiling shown herein demonstrates that low dose radiation (10 cGy) elicits persistent changes in Tgfb1 wild type and heterozygote murine mammary gland that are highly modulated by TGFbeta. We asked if such non-targeted radiation effects contribute to carcinogenesis by using a novel radiation chimera model. Unirradiated Trp53 null mammary epithelium was transplanted to the mammary stroma of mice previously exposed to a single low (10 -100 cGy) radiation dose. By 300 days, 100% of transplants in irradiated hosts at either 10 or 100 cGy had developed Trp53 null breast carcinomas compared to 54% in unirradiated hosts. Tumor growth rate was also increased by high, but not low, dose host irradiation. In contrast, irradiation of Tgfb1 heterozygote mice prior to transplantation failed to decrease tumor latency, or increase growth rate at any dose. Host irradiation significantly reduced the latency of invasive ductal carcinoma compared to spindle cell carcinoma, as well as those tumors negative for smooth muscle actin in wild type but not Tgfb1 heterozygote mice. However, irradiation of either host genotype significantly increased the frequency of estrogen receptor negative tumors. These data demonstrate two concepts critical to understanding radiation risks. First, non-targeted radiation effects can significantly promote the frequency and alter the features of epithelial cancer. Second, radiation-induced TGFbeta activity is a key mechanism of tumor promotion. Keywords: Differential gene expression after low dose irradiation Two genotypes: TGBbeta1 heterozygote and wildtype mouse mammary glands. Two time points post-10cGy-irradiation per genotype (1 week, 4 weeks); control time point was 1 week post-sham-irradiation. Two or three replicates per time point.

Project description:In the context of radiotherapy, the effects elicited by ionizing radiation on the supportive stroma of tumors remains understudied. Tumor infiltrating fibroblasts are abundantly found in the stromal tissue of most tumor types and are key determinants of tumor progression and metastasis. Given the clinical attention that ablative radiotherapy is gaining nowadays, and the paramount role played by CAFs in cancer sustainability, in this study the effect of high-dose ionizing radiation on primary CAF?S have been investigated. We have used high-throughput transcriptome analysis to ascertain in which degree tumor stromal fibroblast become pro-tumorigenic or anti-tumorigenic after ablative irradiation. Hence, genome-wide transcriptome analysis has been carried out on CAFs isolated from NSCLC tumors after receiving a single dose of 18 Gray. The expressions of relevant genes have been validated by real-time PCR, and transformed cellular pathways have been checked by functional assays. Overall, our data reveals profound changes in biological pathways including cellular stress, DNA damage, cell cycle, aging, apoptosis, oxidative stress, and matrix remodeling. Ablative radiation doses may exert both pro-and anti-tumorigenic effects on CAFs. The ultimate effect of such disturbances merits further investigation in more complex in vivo settings.

Project description:Characterization of biological and chemical responses to ionizing radiation by various organisms is essential for potential applications in bioremediation, alternative modes of detecting nuclear material, and national security. Escherichia coli DH10β is an optimal system to study the microbial response to low-dose ionizing radiation at the transcriptional level because it is a well-characterized model bacterium and its responses to other environmental stressors, including those to higher radiation doses, have been elucidated in prior studies. In this study, RNA sequencing with downstream transcriptomic analysis (RNA-seq) was employed to characterize the global transcriptional response of stationary-phase E. coli subjected to Pu-239, H-3 (tritium), and Fe-55, at an approximate absorbed dose rate of 10 mGy day-1 for 1 day and 15 days. Differential expression analysis identified significant changes in gene expression of E. coli for both short- and long-term exposures. Radionuclide source exposure induced differential expression in E. coli of genes involved in biosynthesis pathways of nuclear envelope components, amino acids, and siderophores, transport systems such as ABC transporters and type II secretion proteins, and initiation of stress response and regulatory systems of temperature stress, the RpoS regulon, and oxidative stress. These findings provide a basic understanding of the relationship between low-dose exposure and biological effect of a model bacterium that is critical for applications in alternative nuclear material detection and bioremediation. IMPORTANCE Escherichia coli strain DH10β, a well-characterized model bacterium, was subjected to short-term (1-day) and long-term (15-day) exposures to three different in situ radiation sources comprised of radionuclides relevant to nuclear activities to induce a measurable and identifiable genetic response. We found E. coli had both common and unique responses to the three exposures studied, suggesting both dose rate- and radionuclide-specific effects. This study is the first to provide insights into the transcriptional response of a microorganism in short- and long-term exposure to continuous low-dose ionizing radiation with multiple in situ radionuclide sources and the first to examine microbial transcriptional response in stationary phase. Moreover, this work provides a basis for the development of biosensors and informing more robust dose-response relationships to support ecological risk assessment.

Project description:<p>Long-term low-dose ionizing radiation (LLIR) widely exists in human life and has been confirmed to have potential pathogenic effects on cancer and cardiovascular diseases. However, it is technically and ethically unfeasible to explore LLIR-induced phenotypic changes in the human cohort, leading to slow progress in revealing the pathogenesis of LLIR. In this work, we recruited 32 radiation workers and 18 healthy non-radiation workers from the same city with the same eating habits for radiation damage evaluation and metabolomics profiling. It was found that clear metabolic phenotypic differences existed between LLIR and non-LLIR exposed participants. Moreover, LLIR exposed workers can be further divided into 2 types of metabolic phenotypes, corresponding to high and low damage types, respectively. 3-hydroxypropanoate and glycolaldehyde were identified as sensitive indicators to radiation damage, which specific response to the chromosomal aberration of workers and may be potential monitoring markers for LLIR protection. Taurine metabolism-related pathways were identified as the main differential metabolic pathway under LLIR inducing, which had been confirmed to have a response to acute or chronic radiation exposure. We expect our study can be helpful to LLIR damage monitoring and symptomatic intervention in the future.</p>

Project description:Cancer risk from medical exposure to low dose (LD) ionizing radiation (IR) is linearly extrapolated from high dose (HD) IR without sufficient mechanistic understanding and definitive evidence. The long-term health effects of radiotherapy for cancer are unclear as secondary tumours possibly arise from the ‘low-dose bath’ of normal tissue,. By the age of ~45 years, most (>90%) of the survivors of paediatric cancers develop secondary tumours from cancer therapy (including radiotherapy). Here, we show that LD and HD drive molecular and cellular responses to reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and DNA damage, respectively. We found dose-proportionality only for the phosphorylation events in the DNA damage response (DDR); signalling via PPP1R7 and global (de)phosphorylation events govern the G2/M checkpoint, whereas impaired DSB repair affected the DDR signalling duration rather than amplitudes. Contrastingly, LD specifically activated NRF2-regulated antioxidant defence, redox-sensitive ERK1/2/MAPK signalling, kinome/phosphatome, mitochondrial metabolic and glycolytic pathways, whereas HD induced replication stress signalling, p53 transcription and proliferation inhibition. Dose-proportional (10-200 mGy) chromosomal damage induction suggests non(slowly) repairable DNA breaks generation without a threshold, whereas LD-specific enhanced ROS-related responses induction implies survival of cells with residual DNA damage.

Project description:Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are acknowledged key determinants in the progression of cancer and thereby represent important targets for cancer therapies. Given the increase attention that ablative radiotherapy is gaining in the clinics, in this study we have aimed at identifying the transcriptional responses occurring in primary CAFs exposed to high-dose irradiation. Established primary cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) obtained from non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patient material were irradiated with a single dose of 18 Gy and total RNA was isolated 24 hrs after treatment. Radiation-induced transcriptional alterations were investigated by gene expression analysis using genome-wide microarrays. Obtained results were verified by qRT-PCR of relevant genes. To confirm the data achieved by microarrays, diverse functional assays were performed including DNA damage response foci assay, measurements of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by flow cytometry and senescence-associated beta-galactosidase assays were applied. Irradiation resulted in differential expression of 680 genes of which 553 were up- and 127 down-regulated. 153 genes were differentially expressed with a fold-change greater than 1 and an adjusted p-value less than 0.05 across different comparisons (non-irradiated vs. irradiated). Expression patterns revealed profound changes in biological functions and processes involved in DNA repair, apoptosis, p53 pathway, autophagy, senescence, ROS production and immune response. Conclusions: CAFs display pro- and anti-tumorigenic effects after having received a single high-dose radiation. The effects might have an impact on the tumor microenvironment in respect to tumor growth and metastasis. The complexity of the observed differential gene expression patterns and implicative biological effects are interesting future objectives for further elucidation. Established primary cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) obtained from non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patient material were irradiated with a single dose of 18 Gy and total RNA was isolated 24 hrs after treatment.
