Project description:The effects of ionizing radiation to human health are of great concern in the field of space exploration and for patients considering radiotherapy. However, to date, the effect of high-dose radiation on metabolism in the liver has not been clearly defined. In this study, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based metabolomics combined with multivariate data analysis was applied to study the changes of metabolism in the liver of C57BL/6 mouse after whole-body gamma (3.0 and 7.8 Gy) or proton (3.0 Gy) irradiation. Principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal projection to latent structures analysis (OPLS) were used for classification and identification of potential biomarkers associated with exposure to gamma and proton radiation. The results show that the radiation exposed groups can be well separated from the control group. Where the same dose was received, the proton exposed group was nevertheless well separated from the gamma-exposed group, indicating that different radiation sources induce different alterations in the metabolic profile. Common among all high-dose gamma and proton exposed groups were the statistically decreased concentrations of choline, O-phosphocholine and trimethylamine N-oxide, while the concentrations of glutamine, glutathione, malate, creatinine, phosphate, betaine and 4-hydroxyphenylacetate were statistically and significantly elevated. Since these altered metabolites are associated with multiple biological pathways, the results suggest that radiation induces abnormality in multiple biological pathways. In particular, metabolites such as 4-hydroxyphenylacetate, betaine, glutamine, choline and trimethylamine N-oxide may be prediagnostic biomarkers candidates for ionizing exposure of the liver.

Project description:High-throughput biodosimetry methods to determine exposure to ionizing radiation (IR) that can also be easily scaled to multiple testing sites in emergency situations are needed in the event of malicious attacks or nuclear accidents that may involve a substantial number of civilians. In the event of an improvised nuclear device (IND), a complex IR exposure will have a very high-dose rate (VHDR) component from an initial blast. We have previously addressed low-dose rate (LDR, ≤1 Gy/day) exposures from internal emitters on biofluid small molecule signatures, but further research on the VHDR component of the initial blast is required. Here, we exposed 8- to 10-week-old male C57BL/6 mice to an acute dose of 3 Gy using a reference dose rate of 0.7 Gy/min or a VHDR of 7 Gy/s, collected urine and serum at 1 and 7 d, then compared the metabolite signatures using either untargeted (urine) or targeted (serum) approaches with liquid chromatography mass spectrometry platforms. A Random Forest classification approach showed strikingly similar changes in urinary signatures at 1 d post-irradiation with VHDR samples grouping closer to control samples at 7 d. Identical metabolite panels (carnitine, trigonelline, xanthurenic acid, N6,N6,N6-trimethyllysine, spermine, and hexosamine-valine-isoleucine-OH) could differentiate IR exposed individuals with high sensitivity and specificity (area under the receiver operating characteristic (AUROC) curves 0.89-1.00) irrespective of dose rate at both days. For serum, the top 25 significant lipids affected by IR exposure showed slightly higher perturbations at 0.7 Gy/min vs. 7 Gy/s; however, identical panels showed excellent sensitivity and specificity at 1 d (three hexosylceramides (16:0), (18:0), (24:0), sphingomyelin [26:1], lysophosphatidylethanolamine [22:1]). Mice could not be differentiated from control samples at 7 d for a 3 Gy exposure based on serum lipid signatures. As with LDR exposures, we found that identical biofluid small molecule signatures can identify IR exposed individuals irrespective of dose rate, which shows promise for more universal applications of metabolomics for biodosimetry.

Project description:Due to the potential risk of accidental exposure to gamma radiation, it's critical to identify the biomarkers of radiation exposed creatures. In the present study, NMR based metabolomics combined with multivariate data analysis to evaluate the metabolites changed in the C57BL/6 mouse spleen after 4 days whole body exposure to 3.0 Gy and 7.8 Gy gamma radiations. Principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal projection to latent structures analysis (OPLS) are employed for classification and identification potential biomarkers associated with gamma irradiation. Two different strategies for NMR spectral data reduction (i.e., spectral binning and spectral deconvolution) are combined with normalize to constant sum and unit weight before multivariate data analysis, respectively. The combination of spectral deconvolution and normalization to unit weight is the best way for identifying discriminatory metabolites between the irradiation and control groups. Normalized to the constant sum may achieve some pseudo biomarkers. PCA and OPLS results shown that the exposed groups can be well separated from the control group. Leucine, 2-aminobutyrate, valine, lactate, arginine, glutathione, 2-oxoglutarate, creatine, tyrosine, phenylalanine, π-methylhistidine, taurine, myoinositol, glycerol and uracil are significantly elevated while ADP is decreased significantly. These significantly changed metabolites are associated with multiple metabolic pathways and may be potential biomarkers in the spleen exposed to gamma irradiation.

Project description:It is well accepted that low-dose ionizing radiation (LDIR) modulates a variety of immune responses that have exhibited the properties of immune hormesis. Alterations in messenger RNA (mRNA) and long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) expression were to crucially underlie these LDIR responses. However, lncRNAs in LDIR-induced immune responses have been rarely reported, and its functions and molecular mechanisms have not yet been characterized. Here, we used microarray profiling to determine lncRNA in BALB/c mice exposed to single (0.5 Gy×1) and chronic (0.05 Gy×10) low-dose γ-rays radiation (Co60). We observed that a total of 8274 lncRNAs and 7240 mRNAs were altered in single LDIR, while 2077 lncRNAs and 796 mRNAs in chronic LDIR. The biological functions of these upregulated mRNAs in both 2 groups using Gene Ontology functional and pathway enrichment analysis were significantly enriched in immune processes and immune signaling pathways. Subsequently, we screened out the lncRNAs involved in regulating these immune signaling pathways and examined their potential functions by lncRNAs-mRNAs coexpression networks. This is the first study to comprehensively identify lncRNAs in single and chronic LDIR responses and to demonstrate the involvement of different lncRNA expression patterns in LDIR-induced immune signaling pathways. Further systematic research on these lncRNAs will provide new insights into our understanding of LDIR-modulated immune hormesis responses.

Project description:Tissue consequences of radiation exposure are dependent on radiation quality and high linear energy transfer (high-LET) radiation, such as heavy ions in space is known to deposit higher energy in tissues and cause greater damage than low-LET γ radiation. While radiation exposure has been linked to intestinal pathologies, there are very few studies on long-term effects of radiation, fewer involved a therapeutically relevant γ radiation dose, and none explored persistent tissue metabolomic alterations after heavy ion space radiation exposure. Using a metabolomics approach, we report long-term metabolomic markers of radiation injury and perturbation of signaling pathways linked to metabolic alterations in mice after heavy ion or γ radiation exposure. Intestinal tissues (C57BL/6J, female, 6 to 8 wks) were analyzed using ultra performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QToF-MS) two months after 2 Gy γ radiation and results were compared to an equitoxic ⁵⁶Fe (1.6 Gy) radiation dose. The biological relevance of the metabolites was determined using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis, immunoblots, and immunohistochemistry. Metabolic profile analysis showed radiation-type-dependent spatial separation of the groups. Decreased adenine and guanosine and increased inosine and uridine suggested perturbed nucleotide metabolism. While both the radiation types affected amino acid metabolism, the ⁵⁶Fe radiation preferentially altered dipeptide metabolism. Furthermore, ⁵⁶Fe radiation caused upregulation of 'prostanoid biosynthesis' and 'eicosanoid signaling', which are interlinked events related to cellular inflammation and have implications for nutrient absorption and inflammatory bowel disease during space missions and after radiotherapy. In conclusion, our data showed for the first time that metabolomics can not only be used to distinguish between heavy ion and γ radiation exposures, but also as a radiation-risk assessment tool for intestinal pathologies through identification of biomarkers persisting long after exposure.

Project description:1H-NMR metabolomics was used to investigate the changes of metabolites in the lungs of mice with and without being exposed to a controlled amount of cigarette smoke. It was found that the concentrations of adenosine derivatives (i.e. ATP, ADP and AMP), inosine and uridine were significantly changed in the lungs of mice exposed to cigarette smoke when compared with controls regardless the mice were obese or of regular weight. The decreased ATP, ADP, AMP and elevated inosine suggested that the deaminases in charge of adenosine derivatives to inosine derivatives conversion would be significantly changed in the lungs of mice exposed to cigarette smoke. Indeed, transcriptional study confirmed that the concentrations of adenosine monophosphate deaminase 2 and adenosine deaminase 2 were significantly changed in the lungs of mice exposed to cigarette smoke. We also found that the ratio of glycerophosphocholine (GPC) to phosphocholine (PC) was significantly increased in the lungs of obese mice compared with those of the regular weight mice. The GPC/PC ratio was further elevated in the lungs of obese group exposed to cigarette smoke.

Project description:Metabolomics is increasingly being used in cancer biology for biomarker discovery and identification of potential novel therapeutic targets. However, a systematic metabolomics study of multiple biofluids to determine their interrelationships and to describe their use as tumor proxies is lacking. Using a mouse xenograft model of kidney cancer, characterized by subcapsular implantation of Caki-1 clear cell human kidney cancer cells, we examined tissue, serum, and urine all obtained simultaneously at baseline (urine) and at, or close to, animal sacrifice (urine, tissue, and plasma). Uniform metabolomics analysis of all three "matrices" was accomplished using gas chromatography- and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Of all the metabolites identified (267 in tissue, 246 in serum, and 267 in urine), 89 were detected in all 3 matrices, and the majority was altered in the same direction. Heat maps of individual metabolites showed that alterations in serum were more closely related to tissue than was urine. Two metabolites, cinnamoylglycine and nicotinamide, were concordantly and significantly (when corrected for multiple testing) altered in tissue and serum, and cysteine-glutathione disulfide showed the highest change (232.4-fold in tissue) of any metabolite. On the basis of these and other considerations, three pathways were chosen for biologic validation of the metabolomic data, resulting in potential therapeutic target identification. These data show that serum metabolomics analysis is a more accurate proxy for tissue changes than urine and that tryptophan degradation (yielding anti-inflammatory metabolites) is highly represented in renal cell carcinoma, and support the concept that PPAR-? antagonism may be a potential therapeutic approach for this disease.
