Project description:In recent years there is a growing epidemiological indication of excess risk of cardiovascular disease at low doses of ionizing radiation without a clear-cut threshold. It is proposed that damage to the vascular endothelium is critical in radiation-related cardiovascular diseases. In order to identify and better understand the underlying molecular mechanisms of ionizing radiation on endothelial cells, we performed a microarray analysis on immortalized human coronary artery endothelial cells irradiated with different doses (0.00, 0.05, 0.10, 0.50 and 2.0 Gy). RNA was extracted at different time points after irradiation (1 day, 7 days, 14 days).

Project description:While modern radiotherapy technologies can precisely deliver higher doses of radiation to tumors; thus, reducing overall radiation exposure to normal tissues, moderate dose and normal tissue toxicity still remains a significant limitation. The present study profiled the global effects on transcript and miR expression in Human Coronary Artery Endothelial Cells (HCAECs) using single-dose irradiation (SD, 10Gy) or multi-fractionated irradiation (MF, 2Gy x 5) regimens. Longitudinal timepoints were collected after a SD or final dose of MF irradiation for analysis using Agilent Human Gene Expression and miRNA microarray platforms. Compared to SD, the exposure to MF resulted in robust transcript and miR expression changes in terms of the number and magnitude. For data analysis, statistically significant mRNAs (2-fold) and miRs (1.5-fold) were processed by Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) to uncover miRs associated with target transcripts from several cellular pathways post-irradiation. Interestingly, MF radiation induced a cohort of mRNAs and miRs that coordinate the induction of immune response pathway under tight regulation. Additionally, mRNAs and miRs associated with DNA replication, recombination and repair, apoptosis, cardiovascular events and angiogenesis were revealed. Human Coronary Artery Endothelial Cells (HCAECs) were irradiated in a PANTAK high frequency X-ray generator (Precision X-ray Inc., N. Bedford, CT), operated at 300kV and 10MA. The dose rate was 1.6 Gy per min. Cells were plated into T75cm2 flasks (1-1.5 x 10^6 for single dose radiation and 0.6-0.8 x 10^6 for fractionated radiation). After 24h, cells were exposed to a total of 10 Gy radiation administered either as a single-dose radiation (SD), or as multi-fractionated radiation of 2 Gy x 5 (MF). These non-isoeffective doses were selected to simulate clinical hypofractionated and conventionally fractionated radiotherapy regimens. For the MF protocol, cells were exposed to 2 Gy radiation twice a day, at 6h interval. The cells were approximately 90% confluent at the time of harvesting. For both protocols, radiation-induced changes were analyzed at 6h and 24h after a SD and 6h and 24h after the final dose of fractionated irradiation. Separate controls were maintained for SD and MF radiation protocols.

Project description:Under certain circumstances, humans can be exposed to ionizing radiation from heavy ions. Examples are cancer patients undergoing particle therapy (e.g. carbon ions) or astronauts in deep Space missions (iron ions which contribute for a large fraction to the possible health effects of cosmic radiation because of their high ionisation power). Understanding the differences in the cellular response to low- and high-LET radiation is important in order to adequately model risk estimates based on extrapolations from low-LET exposures. To address this need, we compared the transcriptional profiles of freshly isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells after exposure to 1 Gy of X-rays, iron ions or carbon ions. Data of X-ray exposure have been submitted in E-MTAB-3463: https://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/experiments/E-MTAB-3463/.

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:Carbon-ion irradiation is an emerging therapeutic option for several tumor entities including lung cancer. Well oxygenated tumor areas compared to a hypoxic environment favor therapeutic photon irradiation efficiency of solid tumors due to increased amounts of DNA damage. The resistance of hypoxic tumor areas towards photon irradiation is enhanced through increased HIF-1 signaling. Here, we compared the effects of oxygen and HIF 1 after photon and carbon-ion irradiation with biological equivalent doses in a human non-small lung cancer model. In hypoxia compared to normoxia, A549 and H1299 cells displayed improved survival after photon irradiation. Knockdown of HIF-1M-NM-1 combined with photon irradiation synergistically delayed tumor growth in vivo. Photon irradiation induced HIF-1M-NM-1 and several of its target genes such as PDK1, GLUT-1, LDHA, and VEGF with subsequent enhanced tumor angiogenesis in vivo, a signaling cascade that was not targeted by carbon-ion irradiation. We present evidence that photons but not carbon-ions induce HIF-1M-NM-1 via mTOR pathway. Importantly, after carbon-ion irradiation in vivo, we observed substantial downregulation of HIF-1M-NM-1 and a drastically delayed tumor growth indicating a considerable higher relative biological effectiveness (RBE) than anticipated from the cell survival data. In sum, our results demonstrate that carbon-ions mediate an improved therapeutic response of tumor treatment compared to photon irradiation that is independent of cell oxygenation and HIF-1 signaling. 16 independent cell cultures were used. Each culture was split into an irradiated and a control plate, yieldin a total of 16 paired samples. Paired samples were analysed in 16 two-color hybridizations. Factors time (after irradiation) with levels 1h and 4h and factor radiation quality with levels C12 and X-rays were analyzed. Each of the 2x2 combinations was analyzed in 4 independent experiments.

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:The environment outside the Earth’s protective magnetosphere is a much more threatening and complex space environment. The dominant causes for radiation exposure, solar particle events and galactic cosmic rays, contain high-energy protons. In space, astronauts need healthy and highly functioning cognitive abilities, of which the hippocampus plays a key role. Therefore, understanding the effects of 1H exposure on hippocampal-dependent cognition is vital for de-veloping mitigative strategies and protective countermeasures for future missions. To investi-gate these effects, we subjected 6-month-old female CD1 mice to 0.75 Gy fractionated 1H (250 MeV) whole-body irradiation at the NASA Space Radiation Laboratory. The cognitive perfor-mance of the mice was tested 3 months after irradiation using Y-maze and morris water maze tests. Both sham-irradiated and 1H-irradiated mice significantly preferred exploration of the novel arm compared to the familiar and start arms, indicating intact spatial and short-term memory. Both groups statistically spent more time in the target quadrant, indicating spatial memory retention. There were no significant differences in neurogenic and gliogenic cell counts after irradiation. In addition, proteomic analysis revealed no significant upregulation or down-regulation of proteins related to behavior, neurological disease, or neural morphology. Our data suggests 1H exposure does not impair hippocampal-dependent spatial or short-term memory in female mice.

Project description:Normal lung tissue tolerance constitutes a limiting factor in delivering the required dose of radiotherapy to cure thoracic and chest wall malignancies. Patient genetic predisposition, the volume of irradiated lung and combination regimens consisting of concurrent chemotherapy are correlated with increased risk of radiation induced toxicity in lung. The main purpose of this study is to investigate dose-response regulations of mouse lung irradiation based on a comprehensive dose-escalation program, for a better understanding of molecular mechanism governing radiation induced lung fibrosis by high-LET carbon-ions versus conventional low-LET X-ray.

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.
