Project description:Background and Purpose: Cardiotoxicity is a well-known adverse effect of radiation therapy. Measurable abnormalities in the heart function indicate advanced and often irreversible heart damage. Therefore, early detection of cardiac toxicity is necessary to delay and alleviate the development of the disease. The present study investigated long-term serum proteome alterations following local heart irradiation using a mouse model with the aim to detect biomarkers of radiation-induced cardiac toxicity. Materials and Methods: Serum samples from C57BL/6J mice were collected 20 weeks after local heart irradiation with 8 Gy or 16 Gy X-ray; the controls were sham-irradiated. The samples were analyzed by quantitative proteomics based on data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry. The proteomics data were further investigated using bioinformatics and ELISA. Results: The analysis showed radiation-induced changes in the level of several serum proteins involved in the acute phase response, inflammation and cholesterol metabolism. We found significantly enhanced expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-, TGF-, IL-1 and IL-6) in the serum of the irradiated mice. The level of free fatty acids, total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein (LDL) and oxidized LDL was increased whereas that of high density lipoprotein was decreased by irradiation. Conclusions: This study provides information on systemic effects of heart irradiation. It elucidates a radiation fingerprint in the serum that may be used to elucidate adverse cardiac effects after radiation therapy.

Project description:Measuring global gene expression using cDNA or oligonucleotide microarrays is an effective approach to understanding the complex mechanisms of the effects of radiation. However, few studies have been carried out that investigate gene expression in vivo after prolonged exposure to low-dose-rate radiation. In this study, C57BL/6J mice were continuously irradiated with ?-rays for 485 days at dose-rates of 0.032 – 13 ?Gy/min. Gene expression profiles in the kidney and testis from irradiated and unirradiated mice were analyzed, and differentially expressed genes were identified. A combination of pathway analysis and hierarchical clustering of differentially expressed genes revealed that expression of genes involved in mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation was elevated in the kidney after irradiation at the dose-rates of 0.65 ?Gy/min and 13 ?Gy/min. Expression of cell cycle-associated genes was not profoundly modulated in the kidney, in contrast to the response to acute irradiation, suggesting a threshold in the dose-rate for modulation of the expression of cell cycle-related genes in vivo following exposure to radiation. We demonstrated that changes to the gene expression profile in the testis were largely different from those in the kidney. The Gene Ontology categories “DNA metabolism”, “response to DNA damage” and “DNA replication” overlapped significantly with the clusters of genes whose expression decreased with an increase in the dose-rate to the testis. These observations provide a fundamental insight into the organ-specific responses to low-dose-rate radiation. Key Words: kidney, low-dose-rate, radiation, microarray, mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, testis 3 biological replicates for each experimental group were analysed.

Project description:Children are considered more sensitive to radiation-induced cancer than adults, yet any differences in genomic alterations associated with age at exposure and their underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We analyzed the mutation of key tumor suppressor genes in T-cell lymphomas arising after weekly irradiation of female B6C3F1 mice with 1.2 Gy X-rays for 4 consecutive weeks starting during infancy (1 week old), adolescence (4 weeks old) or as young adults (8 weeks old). T-cell lymphoma incidence did not show any statistical differences among three irradiated groups; however, the frequency of loss of heterozygosity on chromosomes 11 and 19 showed opposing correlations with age at exposure. Ikaros on chromosome 11 was mutated frequently in the young adultâ??irradiation group (63%; 5/8), frequently incurring multiple independent hits (including deletions and mutations) or suffering a single hit predicted to result in a dominant negative protein (such as those lacking exon 4, an isoform we have designated Ik11, which lacks two of the four zincâ??finger domains important for DNA binding). Pten on chromosome 19 was mutated more frequently in tumors from infant- (67%; 10/15) compared with young adult-irradiated mice (13%; 1/8, P = 0.041). Despite the presence of homozygous Pten mutations, DNA copy number was unchanged in the infant-irradiation group, suggesting duplication of the mutated allele by chromosome mis-segregation or mitotic recombination. Taken together, our findings demonstrate that while deletions on chromosome 11 affecting the Ikaros locus are a prominent feature of young adult irradiation-induced T-cell lymphoma, tumors arising after infant irradiation suffer a second hit in the Pten gene by chromosome mis-segregation or recombination. This is the first report showing age-at-exposure associated radiation-induced genomic alterations in two key tumor suppressor genes linked to T-cell lymphomagenesis. These data are important for considering the risks associated with childhood exposure to radiation. 38 T-cell lymphomas arising after weekly irradiation of female B6C3F1 mice with 1.2 Gy X-rays for 4 consecutive weeks starting at different ages (Infant: 1 week old (15 tumors), Adolescent: 4 weeks old (13 tumors), Young adult: 8 weeks old (10 tumors)) were analyzed.

Project description:D. radiodurans is distinguished by the most radioresistant organism identified to date. Lysine acetylation is a highly conserved post-translational modification that plays an essential role in the regulation of many cellular processes and may contribute to its extraordinary radioresistance. We integrate acetyl-lysine enrichment strategy, high-resolution mass spectrometry, and bioinformatics to profile the lysine acetylated proteins for the first time. It is striking that almost half of the total annotated proteins are identified as acetylated forms, which is the largest acetylome dataset reported in D. radiodurans to date. The acetylated proteins are involved in metabolic pathways, propanoate metabolism, carbon metabolism, fatty acid metabolism, and the tricarboxylic acid cycle. The results of this study reinforce the notion that acetylation plays critical regulatory roles in diverse aspects of the cellular process, especially in DNA damage repair and metabolism. It provides insight into the roles of lysine acetylation in the robust resistance to radiation.

Project description:The mammalian brain is especially sensitive to ionizing radiation during development, as shown by the increased occurrence of mental retardation and small head size in children who were in utero exposed to ionizing radiation after the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. These effects of prenatal irradiation can be mimicked by irradiation of mouse embryos during the organogenesis period. In order to better understand the early effects of ionizing radiation on the embryonic brain and immature neurons, we performed a microarray analysis on brains from mice irradiated with different doses at E11 and E14, as well as primary cortical neuron cultures after 14 h in vitro. RNA was extracted at either 2 h (brains) or 6 h (neurons) post-irradiation.

Project description:Inactivation of Pten occurs by multiple mechanisms including epigenetic silencing, point mutations, insertion, and deletion, which are tissue dependent. Although frequent loss of heterozygosity around Pten locus and plausible involvement of epigenetic silencing have been reported in radiation-induced thymic lymphomas, the frequency of Pten inactivation and the spectrum of causal aberrations have not yet been extensively characterized. Here, we assessed the principal mode of inactivation by comprehensively analyzing expression and alterations of Pten gene in 23 radiation-induced thymic lymphomas developed in B6C3F1 mice. We found no evidence for methylation-associated silencing of Pten gene. Instead, we found complex structural abnormalities in 8 lymphomas (35%) that included missense and nonsense mutations, 1- and 3-bp insertions, and focal deletions. Sequencing of deletion breakpoints suggested that illegitimate V(D)J recombination and microhomology-mediated rearrangement were responsible for the focal deletions. Seven out of these 8 lymphomas had biallelic alterations, and 4 of them did not express any Pten protein. These aberrations of Pten were well coincided with downstream Akt phosphorylation on Ser473. In conclusion, Pten inactivation, which is frequently biallelic and is caused by a variety of structural abnormalities but not by epigenetic silencing, is involved in radiation-induced lymphomagenesis. Three thymic lymphomas were analyzed by array-CGH method.

Project description:A set of changes is identified in the transcription profile associated with the long-term, but not the acute, response to radiation exposure. The study was performed in vivo using zebrafish. To study the long-term response, 24 hour post-fertilization embryos were exposed to 0.1 Gy (low dose) or 1.0 Gy (moderate dose) of whole-body gamma radiation and allowed to develop for 16 weeks. Liver mRNA profiles were then analyzed using the Affymetrix microarray platform, with validation by quantitative PCR. To be able to compare this to the acute response, 16-week old adults were exposed at the same doses and analyzed after 4 hours. We used 5 treatment groups: A=non-irradiated control, allowed to develop for 16 weeks; B=low-dose (0.1 Gy) irradiated, allowed to develop for 16 weeks; C=high-dose (1.0 Gy) irradiate, allowed to develop for 16 weeks; D=16 week old adults irradiated at low dose (0.1 Gy); E=16 week old adults irradiate at high dose (1.0 Gy)

Project description:The endothelium is the barrier separating blood and tissue. Radiation-induced enhanced inflammation leading to permeability of this barrier may increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. The aim of this study was to investigate the onset of endothelial inflammatory pathways after radiation exposure. Human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCECest2) were exposed to radiation doses of 0, 0.25, 0.5, 2.0 and 10 Gy (60Co-γ). The cells were harvested 4 h, 24 h, 48 h and 1 wk post-irradiation. The proteomics analysis was performed in a label-free data-independent acquisition mode. The data were validated using bioinformatics and immunoblotting. The low- and moderate-dose-treated samples showed only small proteome changes. In contrast, an activation of DNA-damage repair, inflammation, and oxidative stress pathways was seen after high-dose treatments (2 and 10 Gy). The level of the DNA damage response protein DDB2 was enhanced early at the 10 Gy dose. The expression of proteins belonging to the inflammatory response or cGAS-STING pathway (STING, STAT1, ICAM1, ISG15) increased in a dose-dependent manner showing the strongest effects at 10 Gy after one week. This study suggests a connection between radiation-induced DNA damage and induction of inflammation and supports inhibition of cGAS-STING pathway in the prevention of radiation-induced cardiovascular disease.

Project description:The bystander effect from ionizing radiation consists of cellular responses generated from non-irradiated cells to the irradiation of their neighbors. The bystander effect is predominant at low doses and can lead to DNA damage and genomic instability in the affected cells. This non-targeted effect of radiation has received attention due to its potential implications for cancer therapy and radiation protection. Although studied extensively, a complete understanding of its molecular mechanism is the subject of ongoing research. While many studies have targeted specific factors which are suggested to be involved in the bystander effect, few have looked at whole genome gene expression in bystander cells. Furthermore, even fewer studies have looked at the expression in normal human cell lines. In this study, we have monitored transcriptional responses to γ-radiation in irradiated and bystander normal fibroblasts simultaneously using a genome-wide microarray approach. Bystander fibroblasts incubated in medium from irradiated cells, showed transient enrichment (less than 1.5 fold) in ribosome and oxidative phosphorylation pathways, and neurodegenerative disease pathways associated with mitochondrial dysfunctions. Bystander fibroblasts did not, however, display increases in oxidative stress, a phenomenon often linked with the radiation induced bystander effect. Total RNA was isolated from normal human fibroblasts irradiated with 2.0 Gy and fibroblasts incubated with medium from sham irradiated and irradiated cells 2 h after irradiation. RNA was isolated 4, 8 and 26 h after irradiation and there are 4 replicates for each sample for a total of 36 samples.
