Project description:Skin is usually exposed during human exposures to ionizing radiation, however there are few experiments that evaluate the radiation responsiveness of the cells of the epidermis (keratinocytes) and those of the dermis (fibroblasts) in the same studies. We evaluated the transcriptional responses of quiesent primary keratinocytes and fibroblasts from the same individual and compared them with quiescent keratinocytes and fibroblasts that were immortalized by human telomerase (hTert). The primary transcriptional responses to 10-500 cGy ionizing radiation were p53-mediated responses; however, we did identify distinct responses between the keratinocytes and the fibroblasts.

Project description:Most studies have analysed the effects of high dose radiation such as atomic bomb survivors in Japan, people exposed during the Chernobyl nuclear accident, patients undergoing radiation therapy, uranium miners, etc. However, it has been difficult to measure and assess the risk of cancer in people exposed to lower doses of ionising radiation, such as the people living at high altitudes, who are exposed to more natural background radiation from cosmic rays than people at sea level. We measured the genomic response to X-ray ionising radiation (10 cGy and 100 cGy) in a skin tissue model to compare the effects of low and high dose ionising radiation at different time points. The microarray data was then analysed using state-of-the art “upside-down pyramid” computational systems biology methods to identify genes contributing to the difference in the response to the different radiation doses. The model is reconstructed skin tissue, which is composed of keratinocytes that make up the epidermal layer, and fibroblasts that make up the dermal layer of the skin. Tissues were irradiated with 0, 10, and 100 cGy X-ray radiation. Skin plugs were harvested at 0, 3, 8, and 24 hours post irradiation.

Project description:Previous work has demonstrated the potential for peripheral blood (PB) gene expression profiling for the detection of disease or environmental exposures. We have sought to determine the impact of several variables on the PB gene expression profile of an environmental exposure, ionizing radiation, and to determine the specificity of the PB signature of radiation versus other genotoxic stresses. Keywords: peripheral blood, gene expression study, radiation reponse We have sought to determine the impact of several variables on the PB gene expression profile of an environmental exposure, ionizing radiation, and to determine the specificity of the PB signature of radiation versus other genotoxic stresses. Neither genotype differences nor the time of PB sampling caused any lessening of the accuracy of PB signatures to predict radiation exposure, but sex difference did influence the accuracy of the prediction of radiation exposure at the lowest level (50 cGy). A PB signature of sepsis was also generated and both the PB signature of radiation and the PB signature of sepsis were found to be 100% specific at distinguishing irradiated from septic animals. We also identified human PB signatures of radiation exposure and chemotherapy treatment which distinguished irradiated patients and chemotherapy-treated individuals within a heterogeneous population with accuracies of 90% and 81%, respectively. Human and Murine samples used in models Peripheral blood was collected from patients prior to and 6 hrs following total body irradiation with 150 to 200 cGy as part of their pre-transplantation conditioning. For additional comparison, peripheral blood was obtained from healthy volunteers and an additional cohort of patients prior to and 6 hrs following the initiation of alkylator-based chemotherapy alone (without radiotherapy).

Project description:The development of a biodosimetric assay based on the combined gene expression analysis of ex vivo-irradiated human peripheral blood (PB) and humans treated with total body irradiation has been developed. Gene expression profile signature of human radiation injury into a rapid and high-throughput chemical ligation-dependent probe amplification assay (CLPA) has been shown to discriminate 6 radiation dose levels in human PB. Candidate gene lists were first developed assaying human ex vivo and human TBI samples on the Affymetrix platform. For the Ex Vivo samples, healthy consented adult donor was randomly assigned to a radiation group and labeled with the target dose of 0 cGy, 150 cGy, 300 cGy, or 600 cGy. In addition to the radiation exposures, the samples were also treated with either no treatment, GCSF, or LPS at time points 6 hours and 24 hours. Radiation expire times from the Cs137 irradiator were calculated to achieve target doses specific for tubes filled with blood and inserted in the roaring test tube holder. The dose rate was 480 cGy/min for the duration of the study. The healthy donors were enrolled to participate in this study following a protocol to collect PB samples that was previously approved by the Duke University Institutional Review Board. For the TBI samples, adult patients, ages 21 to 66, were evaluated at the Duke University Adult Bone Marrow Transplantation Program enrolled in a Duke IRB-approved protocol to collect PB prior to and post TBI conditioning. With approval from the Duke University Institutional Review Board (IRB), between 5-12 mL of peripheral blood was collected from consented patients prior to and 6 hours following TBI with 150-200 cGy as part of their pre-transplantation conditioning. All patients receiving non-myeloablative conditioning were treated with 200 cGy of TBI from a linear accelerator at a dose rate of 20 cGy/min. All patients who underwent TBI-based myeloablative allogeneic or autologous stem-cell transplantation received radiation fractionated at 150 cGy per fraction at 20 cGy/min. All patients had PB collected (50 ml) prior to and 6 hours following exposure to either 200 cGy or 150 cGy radiation treatment. The dose exposure for TBI patients used in this study were 0 cGy, 150 cGy, 450 cGy and 1050 cGy at 0, 6, 30 and 78 hours post irradiation. Total RNA was extracted and assayed on the Affymetrix platform.

Project description:Gene expression profiles of peripheral blood samples from C57BL/6 mice exposed with ionizing radiation. We used mice as model animal to study biologial recovery response after radiation damage. Therefore, we obtained gene expression profiles from C57BL/6 mice exposed with various levels of ionizing radiation, including low and high doses and control groups. In order to measure recovery rate, we collected peripheral blood samples at different time durations after the exposure. In order to obtain robust signatures specific to radiation response, we are interested in knowing if the radiation signarures will be present in the presence of confounders. Therefore, mice were given intraperitoneal injections of lipopolysaccharide endotoxin (LPS), or treated with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GCSF), otherwise no treatment after ionizing radiation exposure. The underlying mechanism of confounder treatment is that LPS induces strong immune response resembling the effect of infection, and GCSF stimulates mobilization of HSCs. Exploratory analysis shows that the confounding effects did affect the radiation signature to some extent. This study provides insights into the molecular basis of time- and dose- dependent response to ionizing radiation in mice hematopoietic system. A total of 536 C57BL/6 mice peripheral blood gene expression profiles were measured in 3 different batches using the Affymetrix mouse 430A 2.0 microarray. The experiment is designed to assess blood gene expression changes after exposure to ionizing radiation of 0, 100, 150, 200, 300, 450, 600, 800 and 1050 cGy. Samples were collected at 6, 24, 48, 72, 120 and 168hrs after a single dose exposure.

Project description:Radioadaptive response (RAR) in mammalian cells refers to the phenomenon where a low-dose ionizing irradiation alters the gene expression profiles, and protects the cells from the detrimental effects of a subsequent high dose exposure. We focused on mRNA microarray studies, and aimed to characterize the transcriptome for RAR in AG 1522 human skin fibroblasts and to examine the functional regulatory networks at the genetic level. AG 1522 cells were exposed at a specific time point to a challenging dose of 2 Gy in the RAR group, or a priming dose of 5 cGy in the low-dose group. We aimed to have a comprehensive investigation on the RAR induced in the AG 1522 human fibroblasts first exposed to 5 cGy (priming dose) and then followed by 2 Gy (challenge dose) of X-ray through comparisons to those cells which had only received a single 2 Gy dose.

Project description:Densely ionizing radiation is a major component of the space radiation environment and has potentially greater carcinogenic effect compared to sparsely ionizing radiation that is prevalent in the terrestrial environment. It is unknown to what extent the irradiated microenvironment contributes to the differential carcinogenic potential of densely ionizing radiation. To address this gap, 10-week old BALB/c mice were irradiated with 100 cGy sparsely ionizing g-radiation or 10, 30, or 80 cGy of densely ionizing, 350 MeV/amu Si particles and transplanted 3 days later with syngeneic Trp53 null mammary fragments. Tumor appearance was monitored for 600 days. Tumors arising in Si-particle irradiated mice had a shorter median time to appearance, grew faster and were more likely to metastasize. Most tumors arising in sham-irradiated mice were ER-positive, pseudo-glandular and contained both basal keratin 14 and luminal keratin 8/18 cells (designated K14/18), while most tumors arising in irradiated hosts were K8/18 positive (designated K18) and ER negative. Comparison of K18 vs K14/18 tumor expression profiles showed that genes increased in K18 tumors were associated with ERBB2 and KRAS while decreased genes overlapped with those down regulated in metastasis and by loss of E-cadherin. Consistent with this, K18 tumors grew faster than K14/18 tumors and more mice with K18 tumors developed lung metastases compared to mice with K14/18 tumors. However, K18 tumors arising in Si-particle irradiated mice grew even faster and were more metastatic compared to control mice. A K18 Si-irradiated host profile was enriched in genes involved in mammary stem cells, stroma, and Notch signaling. Thus systemic responses to densely ionizing radiation enriches for a ER-negative, K18-positive tumor, whose biology is more aggressive compared to similar tumors arising in non-irradiated hosts. Key Words: ionizing radiation; breast cancer; heavy ion radiation;initiation; promotion 3 different dose of Si were used. Total RNA was extracted from mammary tumors derived from transplantations of non-irradiated p53null mammary fragments into irradiated hosts. We analyzed a total of 45 Trp53-null tumors: 18 from sham-irradiated hosts, 9 from 10 cGy Si-irradiated hosts, 10 from 30 cGy Si-irradiated hosts, and 8 from irradiated hosts.
