A radiation-induced gene expression signature as a tool to predict acute radiotherapy-induced adverse side effects

ABSTRACT: The majority of patients tolerate radiotherapy well, but some of them suffer from severe side effects. To find genes possibly predictive for radiosensitivity, mRNA profiles were generated before and 6 h after in vitro irradiation with 5 Gy. We analyzed lymphocytes from four head and neck and eight breast cancer patients with strong acute radiation toxicity and from 12 matching normal reacting patients in a blind study. In peripheral blood lymphocytes of all patients, 153 genes were identified which were statistically significantly altered by a fold change of more than 50% by irradiation. Pathway analysis revealed genes involved in p53 signalling, cell cycle control and apoptosis in response to radiation in primary lymphocytes. In these cells, a set of 67 radiation-induced genes was identified capable of differentiating between severe radiosensitive and normal reacting patients. More than one third of such classifying genes belong to the group of apoptosis or cell cycle regulating genes.

Transcription profiling of CD4+ T lymphocytes in response to an irradiation dose of 1 Gy.radiation

Project description:Differences in radiosensitivity existing among cells which constitute the lymphocyte population have been known for a long time, although the molecular basis of this differential radiation sensitivity remains unclear. In an attempt to get more insight into the molecular mechanisms leading to radiation effects, we used microarray analysis to study transcriptional changes in CD4+ T lymphocytes to an irradiation dose of 1 Gy. The contribution of the cell type to the radiation response of CD4+ lymphocytes was deduced by comparing our results with a gene expression profile observed in Peripheral Blood Lymphocytes published by other groups (Amundson, 2000; Kang, 2003, Jen, 2003).

MicroRNA-449a Enhances Radiosensitivity in Lung Adenocarcinoma Cells

Project description:Twenty-five miRNAs were identified as having differential expression post-irradiation in CL1-0 or CL1-5 cells. Among these miRNAs, miR-449a, which was down-regulated in CL1-0 cells at 24 h after irradiation, was chosen for further investigation. Overexpression of miR-449a in CL1-0 cells effectively increased irradiation-induced DNA damage and apoptosis, altered the cell cycle distribution and eventually led to sensitization of CL1-0 to irradiation. MiR-449a might be a novel radiosensitizer for clinical applications. Two lung adenocarcinoma cell lines (CL1-0 and CL1-5) with different metastatic ability and radiosensitivity were used. In order to understand the regulatory mechanisms of differential radiosensitivity in these isogenic tumor cells, both CL1-0 and CL1-5 were treated with 10 Gy radiation, and were harvested respectively at 0, 1, 4, and 24 h after radiation exposure. The changes in expression of miRNA upon irradiation were examined using Illumina Human microRNA BeadChips.

Detection of genes differentially expressed in radioresistant tumors

Project description:Nu61, a radiation-resistant human tumor xenograft, was selected from a parental radiosensitive tumor SCC-61 by eight serial cycles of passage in athymic nude mice and in vivo irradiation. Obtained tumors were profiled using Affymetrix U133A arrays. Most abundant gene pattern associated with radioresistant phenotype was presented by IFN-inducible, Stat1-dependent pathway Keywords: Pair-wise comparison of radiosensitive vs radioresistant tumors

Differential transcriptional responses of stem and differentiated non-stem cells to ionizing radiation exposure.

Project description:Cells differ in their response to ionizing radiation (IR) depending on the cell type, proliferation rate and cell cycle stage. Normal stem cells exhibit a radiosensitive phenotype contributing to normal tissue injury following radiotherapy, whereas differentiated cells are comparably resistant to IR-induced programmed cell death. An improved understanding of differential radiation responses in varying cellular contexts and their mechanistic distinction is imperative for efficient treatment of malignancies by radiotherapy. Low dose IR induced apoptosis is exclusively confined to the normal stem cells in multiple stem cell niches in vivo and the radiation hypersensitivity is recapitulated in primary stem cell culture models of embryonic and neuronal stem cells contrasting their isogenic differentiated non-stem radioresistant progeny. Transcriptional profiles of primary, early passage, mouse embryonic stem cells and isogenic differentiated non-stem cells were compared to discover genes that are selectively induced in stem cells, but not in differentiated cells; to characterize potential molecular regulators of stem cell radiosensitivity. These molecular insights may contribute to the development of therapeutics that minimize normal tissue injury.

Transcriptome analysis in a radiosensitive and a radioresistant cell line after ionizing radiation

Project description:Differential gene expression profiling was performed in two lymphoblastoid cell lines with different radiosentivitity, one radiosensitive (RS) and another radioresistant (RR), after different post-irradiation times. A greater and a prolonged transcriptional response after irradiation was induced in the RS cell line. Functional analysis showed that 24 h after irradiation genes involved in DNA damage response, negative regulation of the cell cycle and apoptosis were still differentially up-regulated in the RS cell line but not in the RR cell line.

NFATC2 modulates radiation toxicity in dermal fibroblasts from patients with severe side-effects of radiotherapy

Project description:Although it is well established that 5 to 15% of radiotherapy patients exhibit severe side-effects in healthy tissue, the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved are still poorly known, and the link between cellular and tissue radiosensitivity is still debated. We here studied fibroblasts from normal skin of patients with severe sequels of radiotherapy in order to examine if specific basal cell activities might be involved in susceptibility to side-effects. When compared to control cells, patient fibroblasts exhibited higher radiosensitivity and defects in DNA double strand breaks (DSB) repair and 8-oxoGuanines, abasic sites and glycol damaged base repair. Transcriptome profiling of dermal fibroblast cell strains from 16 radiotherapy patients with severe side-effects and 8 healthy individuals identified 540 genes specifically deregulated in the patients. Nuclear factor of activated T cells 2 (NFATC2) was one of the most differentially expressed genes. This transcription factor involved in immune responses was found poorly expressed at transcript and protein level in patient cells, whereas the NFATC2 gene region was hypermethylated. Furthermore, NFATC2 expression correlated to the cell survival after irradiation. Finally, we observed that the silencing of NFATC2 in normal cells by RNA interference leads to increased cellular radiosensivity and defects in DNA DSB repair. This study demonstrates that patients with clinical hypersensitivity also exhibit intrinsic cellular radiosensitivity in normal skin cells. It further reveals a new role for NFATC2 as a potential regulator of the cellular sensitivity to ionizing radiations.

Copy Number Variation data from non-trasformed human fibroblasts

Project description:The search for biomarkers to predict radiosensitivity is important not only to individualize radiotherapy of cancer patients but also to forecast radiation exposure risks. The aim of this study was to devise a machine learning method to stratify radiosensitivity and to investigate its association with copy number variations (CNVs) as markers of sensitivity to ionizing radiation. We used the Affymetrix CytoScan HD microarrays to for CNV estimation. Celluar radiosensitivity was measured by the clonogenic surviving fraction at 2 Gy (SF2).

Acute high dose X-irradiation-induced genomic changes in a lung tumor cell line

Project description:Accidents with ionizing radiation (IR) often involve acute high dose exposures that can lead to acute radiation syndrome and late effects. IR can induce genomic lesions, cell death or carcinogenesis. Here, we investigated acute IR-induced cellular genomic signatures at the genome wide level. After exposing the adenocarcinoma cell line A549 to an acute 6 Gy 240 kV X-Ray dose, four surviving clonogenic cells were recovered by minimal dilution and further expanded and analyzed by cytogenetics, chromosome painting and tiling-path array CGH, with the non-irradiated clone0 serving as control. It was found that acute X-ray exposure induced changes in modal chromosome number and specific translocations in the four irradiation surviving clones. Furthermore, clone4 displayed an increased radiosensitivity at D > 5 Gy. Array CGH disclosed unique and recurrent genomic changes, predominantly gains, and disclosed fragile sites FRA3B and FRA16D as preferential regions of genomic alterations in all irradiated clones, which likely relates to irradiation-induced genomic stress. Gene expression analysis revealed a specific profile of 364 genes in clone4, of which p53 pathway genes may contribute to its increased radiosensitivity. IR-induced genomic changes AND fragile site expression highlight the capacity of a single acute radiation exposure to resculpture the genome of tumor cells by inflicting genomic stress. Gene expression in A549 cell line was analysed after exposure to 6Gy X-rays at a dose rate of 1Gy/min.
