Profiles of global gene expression in ionizing radiation-damaged human diploid fibroblasts


ABSTRACT: Cell cycle arrest and transcriptional responses to ionizing radiation (IR)-induced DNA damage were quantified in telomerase-expressing human diploid fibroblasts. Assays of clonal expansion established 1.5 Gy IR as the D0 dose in three fibroblast lines and this dose was used in all subsequent analyses. Fibroblasts exhibited >90% arrest of progression from G2 to M at 2 h and from G1 to S at 6 and 12 h post-IR. Normal rates of DNA synthesis and mitosis 6 and 12 h after irradiation caused the S and M compartments to empty by over 70% at 24 h. Microarray monitored global gene expression in IR-treated cells and a new microarray analysis algorithm, EPIG, identified nine IR-responsive patterns of gene expression including a dominant p53-dependent G1 checkpoint response. Many p53 target genes, like CDKN1A, GADD45, BTG2 and PLK3, were significantly up-regulated at 2 h post-IR while many genes whose expression is regulated by E2F family transcription factors, including CDK2, CCNE1, CDC6, CDC2, MCM2, were significantly down-regulated at 24 h post-IR. Numerous genes that participate in DNA metabolism were also markedly repressed in arrested fibroblasts as a result of cell synchronization behind the G1 checkpoint. However, cluster and principal component analyses of gene expression revealed a profile of gene expression 24 h after IR with similarity to that of G0 growth quiescence. These results demonstrate a highly stereotypic pattern of response to IR that reflects primarily synchronization behind the G1 checkpoint but with prominent induction of additional markers of G0 quiescence such as GAS1. Keywords: time-course, DNA damgage responses
