Ilomastat contributes to the survival of mouse after irradiation via promoting the recovery of hematopoietic system.

ABSTRACT: Ilomastat, a broad-spectrum inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), has drawn attentions for its function in alleviating radiation damage. However, the detailed mechanisms of Ilomastat's protection from animal model remain not fully clear. In this study, the C57BL/6 mice were pre-administrated with Ilomastat or vihicle for 2 h, and then total body of mice were exposed to 6 Gy of ?-rays. The protective effect of Ilomastat on the hematopoietic system in the irradiated mice were investigated. We found that pretreatment with Ilomastat significantly reduced the level of TGF-?1 and TNF-?, and elevated the number of bone marrow (BM) mononuclear cells in the irradiated mice. Ilomastat pretreatment also increased the fraction of BM hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) and hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) at day 30 after irradiation, and protected the spleen of mouse from irradiation. These results suggest that Ilomastat promotes the recovery of hematopoietic injury in the irradiated mice, and thus contributes to the survival of mouse after irradiation.

Project description:While exposure to radiation can be lifesaving in certain settings, it can also potentially result in long-lasting adverse effects, particularly to hematopoietic and immune cells. This study investigated hematopoietic recovery and immune function in rhesus macaques Cross-sectionally (at a single time point) 2 to 5 years after exposure to a single large dose (6.5 to 8.4 Gray) of total body radiation (TBI) derived from linear accelerator-derived photons (2 MeV, 80 cGy/minute) or Cobalt 60-derived gamma irradiation (60 cGy/min). Hematopoietic recovery was assessed through measurement of complete blood counts, lymphocyte subpopulation analysis, and thymus function assessment. Capacity to mount specific antibody responses against rabies, Streptococcus pneumoniae, and tetanus antigens was determined 2 years after TBI. Irradiated macaques showed increased white blood cells, decreased platelets, and decreased frequencies of peripheral blood T cells. Effects of prior radiation on production and export of new T cells by the thymus was dependent on age at the time of analysis, with evidence of interaction with radiation dose for CD8+ T cells. Irradiated and control animals mounted similar mean antibody responses to proteins from tetanus and rabies and to 10 of 11 serotype-specific pneumococcal polysaccharides. However, irradiated animals uniformly failed to make antibodies against polysaccharides from serotype 5 pneumococci, in contrast to the robust responses of non-irradiated controls. Trends toward decreased serum levels of anti-tetanus IgM and slower peak antibody responses to rabies were also observed. Taken together, these data show that dose-related changes in peripheral blood cells and immune responses to both novel and recall antigens can be detected 2 to 5 years after exposure to whole body radiation. Longer term follow-up data on this cohort and independent validation will be helpful to determine whether these changes persist or whether additional changes become evident with increasing time since radiation, particularly as animals begin to develop aging-related changes in immune function.

Project description:PurposeAcquired hematopoietic failure is commonly caused by therapeutic and accidental exposure of the bone marrow (BM) to toxic agents. Efficient recovery from BM failure is dictated not only by the intrinsic sensitivity and proliferation capacity of the hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells but also by the BM environment niche. Identification of genetic factors that improve recovery from hematopoietic failure is essential. Vertebrate SETD4 is a poorly characterized and putatively nonhistone methyltransferase. This study aims to identify the roles of SETD4 in BM recovery.Methods and materialsAn inducible SETD4 knockout mouse model (Setd4flox/flox;Rosa26-CreERT2+) was used. Adult sex-matched littermates were treated with tamoxifen to induce Setd4 deletion or oil as the control. Tamoxifen-treated Setd4wt/wt;Rosa26-CreERT2+ mice were included as another control. Those mice were irradiated to induce hematopoietic syndrome and analyzed to identify the roles and mechanisms of Setd4 in of BM recovery.ResultsLoss of Setd4 in adult mice improved the survival of whole-body irradiation-induced BM failure. This was associated with improved recoveries of long-term and short-term hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and early progenitor cells. BM transplantation analyses surprisingly showed that the improved recovery was not due to radiation resistance of the Setd4-deficient HSCs but that Setd4-deficient HSCs were actually more sensitive to radiation. However, the Setd4-deficient mice were better recipients for allogeneic HSC transplantation. Furthermore, there was enhanced splenic erythropoiesis in Setd4-deficient mice.ConclusionThese findings not only revealed a previously unrecognized role of Setd4 as a unique modulator of hematopoiesis but also underscored the critical role of the BM niche in recovery from hematopoietic failure. Our study also implicated Setd4 as a potential target for therapeutic inhibition to improve the conditioning of the BM niche before allogeneic transplantation.
