Project description:Gene expression profile of two reporgrammed cell lines iPSC CRL1831 (induced pluripotent stem cells) and CSC DLD1 (cancer stem-like cells) derived from normal colon CRL1831 and colorectal cancer DLD-1 cells, after transfer to 3D cell culture conditions and cell lines treated with single or fractionated ionizing radiation doses under 3D cell culture conditions. There are no data that cancer metastases arise due to specific mutations of cancer cells. Therefore ongoing investigation of reprogrammed cancer cells grown in three-dimensional (3D) cell culture models might provide researchers with essential data studying tumor oncogenesis and metastases formation. 3D culture models were shown to mimic in vivo cell microenvironment more accurately than the standard two-dimensional cell monolayer (2D) cultures. Also, growing evidence suggests that 2D and 3D cultured cells gene expression pattern variance following irradiation is highly dependent on cancer cell state and their interaction with microenvironment.

Project description:Radiotherapy is one of the most common therapies for cancer. Approximately half of all cancer patients will receive radiotherapy at some point during treatment. Consequences of IR treatment are dose dependent and different sensitivity to IR of various types of cells is well established. To reduce the damage of IR to most sensitive cells of normal (noncancerous) tissue radiotherapy is administered as fractionated dose treatment applying radiation in ~2 Gy fractions every 24 hours, 5 times per week. However, during the therapy intrinsic and acquired tumor radioresistance may result in treatment failures. Comprehensive mechanisms of the resistance to irradiation as well as mechanisms of cellular response to fractionated dose IR remain unclear. Therefore, in the present study we evaluated global gene expression changes in murine Lewis lung carcinoma LLC1 cells following X-ray irradiation of single 2 Gy or 10 Gy and 2 Gy x 5 fractionated doses. Total RNA was harvested from mouse Lewis lung carcinoma cells 4h after treatment of single (2 Gy or 10 Gy) or fractionated (5x2 Gy) ionizing radiation dose.
Project description:Radiation-induced DNA damage initiates a complex series of overlapping responses responsible for the maintenance of genome integrity. This study reports the expression analysis in response to DNA minor groove binding ligand (DMA-5-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)-2-[2’-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-5`-benzimidazolyl] benzimidazole, an analogue of Hoechst 33342), with an emphasis on its ability to afford better protection in cells exposed to ionizing radiation. Four different types of samples were employed in the analysis: Control (untreated) cells, 50µM ligand-treated cells, 2Gy radiation-treated cells, and cells treated with 50µM ligand one hour prior to 2Gy irradiation.
Project description:B16-BL6 mouse melanoma that had been maintained in C57BL/6J mice were used to evaluate the 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) and radiation dose effects on radiotherapy. Mice were divided into 6 groups after implantation of B16-BL6 cells; (1) no treatment (NT) ; (2) 5-ALA treatment (ALAT); (3) 10 session of fractionated irradiation (2Gy/day) (20XT); (4) 10 sessions of 5-ALA treatment followed by fractionated irradiation (2Gy/day) (ALA-20XT); (5) 10 session of fractionated irradiation (3Gy/day) (30XT); (6) 10 sessions of 5-ALA treatment followed by fractionated irradiation (3Gy/day) (ALA-30XT).

Comprehensive mechanisms of the resistance to irradiation as well as mechanisms of cellular response to fractionated dose IR remain unclear. Different gene expression patterns may be partially influenced by short ~22 nt non-coding RNA molecules called microRNAs (miRNAs) via translational regulation or RNA degradation mechanisms. Therefore, in the present study we evaluated global miRNA changes in murine Lewis lung carcinoma LLC1 cells following X-ray irradiation of single 2 Gy or 10 Gy and 2 Gy x 5 fractionated doses. Total RNA enriched in small noncoding RNAs was isolated from mouse Lewis lung carcinoma cells 4h after treatment of single (2 Gy or 10 Gy) or fractionated (5x2 Gy) ionizing radiation dose.
