Radiation Nephropathy in a Nonhuman Primate Model of Partial-body Irradiation with Minimal Bone Marrow Sparing-Part 1: Acute and Chronic Kidney Injury and the Influence of Neupogen.

ABSTRACT: Acute and chronic kidney injury may occur after accidental prompt radiation exposures. We have modeled their occurrence in a nonhuman primate model. Subjects who are exposed to more than 5-Gy prompt irradiation are apt to show blood cell cytopenias and be treated with granulocyte colony-stimulating factors such as Neupogen® or Neulasta® to mitigate the hematologic injury of the acute radiation syndrome. Neupogen or Neulasta are now approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for this indication. This will significantly increase the number of survivors of acute radiation exposures who will be at risk for delayed effects of radiation exposure, which includes acute and chronic kidney injury. The primary objectives of the present two companion manuscripts were to assess natural history of delayed radiation-induced renal injury in a nonhuman primate model of acute, high-dose, partial-body irradiation with 5% bone marrow sparing to include the clinical and histopathological evidence and the effect of Neupogen administration on morbidity and mortality. In this study, 88 nonhuman primates underwent 10- or 11-Gy partial-body irradiation with 5% bone marrow sparing, of which 36 were treated with Neupogen within 1, 3, or 5 d postirradiation. All animals were followed up to 180 d after irradiation. Renal function and histology end points showed early acute and later chronic kidney injury. These end points were not affected by use of Neupogen. We conclude that use of Neupogen to mitigate against the hematopoietic acute radiation syndrome has no impact on acute or chronic kidney injury.

Project description:In the event of a radiological or nuclear attack, advanced clinical countermeasures are needed for screening and medical management of the exposed population. In such a scenario, minimally invasive biomarkers that can accurately quantify radiation exposure would be useful for triage management by first responders. In this murine study, we evaluated the efficacy of a novel combination of radiation responsive proteins, Flt3 ligand (FL), serum amyloid A (SAA), matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9), fibrinogen beta (FGB) and pentraxin 3 (PTX3) to predict the received dose after whole- or partial-body irradiation. Ten-week-old female C57BL6 mice received a single whole-body or partial-body dose of 18 Gy from a Pantak X-ray source at a dose rate of 2.28 Gy/min. Plasma was collected by cardiac puncture at 24, 48, 72 h and 1 week postirradiation. Plasma protein levels were determined via commercially available ELISA assay. A multivariate discriminant analysis was utilized to generate best-fit dose prediction models for whole-body exposures using the selected biomarker panel and its potential application to partial-body exposures was examined. The combination of values from FL, SAA, MMP9, FGB and PTX3 between 24 h and 1 week postirradiation yielded novel dose-response relationships. For day 1 postirradiation, the best-fit model yielded a predictive accuracy of 81% utilizing FL alone. The use of additional proteins did not enhance the model accuracy whereas, at day 2 postirradiation, the addition of PTX3 and FGB to FL increased the accuracy to 100%. At day 3 the use of FL and PTX3 yielded a predictive accuracy of 93% and at day 7 use of FL and SAA had an accuracy of 90%. Dose prediction of partial-body exposures based on the TBI model had a higher predictive accuracy when the percentage of the body exposed to radiation increased. Our findings indicate that this novel combination of radiation responsive biomarker proteins are an efficient method for predicting radiation exposure and are more accurate when used in concert compared to using any single biomarker protein alone.
