Protective Effects of Polydatin on Reproductive Injury Induced by Ionizing Radiation.

ABSTRACT: The reproductive system is vulnerable to ionizing radiation, which is a hot research topic at present. We tested the effect of polydatin on spermatocytes(GC-1 cells) after X-ray irradiation. The reproductive damage model of C.elegans was established by 60Coγ-ray, and the protective effect of polydatin on reproductive damage caused by ionizing radiation was evaluated. We quantified the ROS levels of GC-1 cells and C.elegans after irradiation with polydatin and evaluated the anti-apoptosis effect of polydatin at proper concentration. Differential genes of C.elegans reproductive damage were screened out from transcriptome sequencing results and comparable GEO datasets. It was proved that 100μM polydatin significantly reduced the apoptosis of GC-1 cells induced by 2 Gy X-ray. In addition, the longevity, reproductive capacity, germ cell apoptosis and spawning and hatching capacity of polydatin were tested. The results showed that 100 μM polydatin content significantly increased the influence of 50 Gy 60Coγ-ray on reproductive capacity of C.elegans. Quantitative analysis of mRNA and protein levels of apoptosis-related genes and reproductive-related genes by qRT-PCR and Western blotcon firmed that polydatin with appropriate dosage had good protective effects on reproductive damage caused by radiation, which laid a foundation for the application research of polydatin in radiation protection.

Protective effects of zingerone derivate on ionizing radiation-induced intestinal injury.

Project description:Intestinal injury is the primary toxicity of radiotherapy for pelvic and abdominal tumors, and it is also one of the common acute complications of radiotherapy. At present, there are no effective drugs to prevent intestinal injury in the clinic. Zingerone is a natural product with radioprotective effects. In this study, a novel compound (thiazolidine hydrochloride, TZC01) was synthesized by structural modification of zingerone. The effects of TZC01 on preventing intestinal injury from radiation were further investigated in this study. C57BL/6N mice were exposed to a lethal dose of abdominal irradiation (ABI) with and without TZC01 treatments. The morphological changes of the intestine and various makers of intestinal crypt cells were investigated. Treatment with TZC01 improved the survival rate of mice exposed to 12 Gy ABI. Moreover, TZC01 protected the intestinal morphology of mice, decreased the apoptotic rate of intestinal crypt cells, maintained cell regeneration and promoted crypt cell proliferation and differentiation. This study suggests that TZC01 has preventive and therapeutic effects on radiation enteritis by promoting the proliferation and differentiation of crypt cells to protect the small intestine from the toxic effects of ionizing radiation. Furthermore, the study of TCZ01 lays a strong foundation for developing novel radioprotectors with multiple properties.

The protective effects of Resveratrol against radiation-induced intestinal injury.

Project description:Intestinal injury is a potential cause of death after high-dose radiation exposure. The aim of the present study was to investigate the protective effects of resveratrol against radiation-induced small intestine injury.C57BL/6 N mice were irradiated and treated with resveratrol and/or Ex527 (a potent Sirt1 inhibitor), and subsequent examining intestinal morphological changes, and crypt cell apoptosis. Then, the expression and enzyme activity of SOD2 in the small intestine were examined. Furthermore, Sirt1 and acetylated p53 expression was analysed.Compared to the vehicle control, treatment with resveratrol improved intestinal morphology, decreased apoptosis of crypt cells, maintained cell regeneration, and ameliorated SOD2 expression and activity. Resveratrol also regulated Sirt1 and acetylated p53 expression perturbed by irradiation in the small intestine. The protective effect of resveratrol against ionizing radiation induced small intestine injury was significantly inhibited by Ex527.Our results suggest that resveratrol decreases the effects of radiation on intestinal injury at least partly via activation of Sirt1.

The protective effects of XH-105 against radiation-induced intestinal injury.

Project description:Radiation-induced intestinal injury is one of the major side effects in patients receiving radiation therapy. There is no specific treatment for radiation enteritis in the clinic. We designed and synthesized a new compound named XH-105, which is expected to cleave into polyphenol and aminothiol in vivo to mitigate radiation injury. In the following study, we describe the beneficial effects of XH-105 against radiation-induced intestinal injury. C57BL/6J mice were treated by gavage with XH-105 1 hour before total body irradiation (TBI), and the survival rate was monitored. Histological changes were examined, and survival of Lgr5+ intestinal stem cells Ki67+ cells, villi+ enterocytes and lysozymes was determined by immunohistochemistry. DNA damage and cellular apoptosis in intestinal tissue were also evaluated. Compared to vehicle-treated mice after TBI, XH-105 treatment significantly enhanced the survival rate, attenuated structural damage of the small intestine, decreased the apoptotic rate, reduced DNA damage, maintained cell regeneration and promoted crypt proliferation and differentiation. XH-105 also reduced the expression of Bax and p53 in the small intestine. These data suggest that XH-105 is beneficial for the protection of radiation-induced intestinal injury by inhibiting the p53-dependent apoptosis signalling pathway.

Protective effects of activated vitamin D receptor on radiation-induced intestinal injury.

Project description:Radiation-induced intestinal injury (RIII) is a common complication after radiation therapy in patients with pelvic, abdominal, or retroperitoneal tumours. Recently, in the model of DSS (Dextran Sulfate Sodium Salt) -induced intestinal inflammatory injury, it has been found in the study that transgenic mice expressing hVDR in IEC (Intestinal Epithelial Cell) manifest highly anti-injury properties in colitis, suggesting that activated VDR in the epithelial cells of intestine may inhibit colitis by protecting the mucosal epithelial barrier. In this study, we investigated the effect of the expression and regulation of VDR on the protection of RIII, and the radiosensitivity in vitro experiments, and explored the initial mechanism of VDR in regulating radiosensitivity of IEC. As a result, we found that the expression of VDR in intestinal tissues and cells in mice can be induced by ionizing radiation. VDR agonists are able to prolong the average survival time of mice after radiation and reduce the radiation-induced intestinal injury. For lack of vitamin D, the radiosensitivity of intestinal epithelial cells in mice increased, which can be reduced by VDR activation. Ensuing VDR activation, the radiation-induced intestinal stem cells damage is decreased, and the regeneration and differentiation of intestinal stem cells is promoted as well. Finally, on the basis of sequencing analysis, we validated and found that VDR may target the HIF/PDK1 pathway to mitigate RIII. We concluded that agonism or upregulation of VDR expression attenuates radiation-induced intestinal damage in mice and promotes the repair of epithelial damage in intestinal stem cells.

Protective effects of new aryl sulfone derivatives against radiation-induced hematopoietic injury.

Project description:The hematopoietic system is sensitive to radiation. In this research, new aryl sulfone derivatives (XH-201 and XH-202) containing a nitrogen heterocycle were designed and synthesized and their radio-protective efficacies with regard to the hematopoietic system were evaluated. XH-201 administration significantly increased the survival rate of mice after 8.0 Gy total body irradiation (TBI). The results showed that XH-201 treatment not only increased the white blood cells, platelets counts and the percentage of hematopoietic progenitor cells and hematopoietic stem cells in mice exposed to 4.0 Gy TBI but also decreased DNA damage, as determined by flow cytometric analysis of histone H2AX phosphorylation. In addition, our data demonstrated that XH-201 decreased the mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels in hematopoietic cells. Overall, these data suggest that XH-201 is beneficial for the protection of the hemoatopoietic system against radiation-induced injuries.

Protective effects of alpha lipoic acid on radiation-induced salivary gland injury in rats.

Project description:PurposeRadiation therapy is a treatment for patients with head and neck (HN) cancer. However, radiation exposure to the HN often induces salivary gland (SG) dysfunction. We investigated the effect of ?-lipoic acid (ALA) on radiation-induced SG injury in rats.ResultsALA preserved acinoductal integrity and acinar cell secretary function following irradiation. These results are related to the mechanisms by which ALA inhibits oxidative stress by inhibiting gp91 mRNA and 8-OHdG expression and apoptosis of acinar cells and ductal cells by inactivating MAPKs in the early period and expression of inflammation-related factors including NF-?B, I?B-?, and TGF-?1 and fibrosis in late irradiated SG. ALA effects began in the acute phase and persisted for at least 56 days after irradiation.Materials and methodsRats were assigned to followings: control, ALA only (100 mg/kg, i.p.), irradiated, and ALA administered 24 h and 30 min prior to irradiation. The neck area including the SG was evenly irradiated with 2 Gy per minute (total dose, 18 Gy) using a photon 6-MV linear accelerator. Rats were killed at 4, 7, 28, and 56 days after radiation.ConclusionsOur results show that ALA could be used to ameliorate radiation-induced SG injury in patients with HN cancer.

The protective effect of propofol on ionizing radiation-induced hematopoietic system damage in mice.

Project description:The hematopoietic system is highly sensitive to ionizing radiation (IR), and IR can cause injury to hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs); the main reason for this may be elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Propofol is an anesthetic drug commonly used in clinical practice. The chemical structure of propofol is similar to that of vitamin E, and propofol has an antioxidant capacity. Therefore, in this work the effect of using propofol to protect against IR-induced hematopoietic system injury is evaluated. The data suggested that when the irradiated mice were treated with 20 mg kg-1 of propofol, the survival rate of lethally irradiated mice increased significantly, furthermore, the radiation-induced decrease of white blood cells (WBCs), red blood cells (RBCs), hemoglobin (HGC) and platelets (PLT) in peripheral blood is improved significantly. In addition, propofol could also increase the irradiated HSC and hematopoietic progenitor cell (HPC) frequencies, improving the self-renewal and differentiation abilities of HSCs and HPCs in irradiated mice. Next the ROS levels in HSCs and HPCs were measured, and the results showed that propofol could effectively decrease the ROS levels in these cells. The underlying ROS-scavenging mechanisms are further explored, and the results show that the Nrf2 pathway plays an important role in propofol's radiation protective effects, however, propofol can also increase the proliferation of the Nrf2 inhibitor-treated Lineage- cells after exposure to 4 Gy radiation. The data suggest that propofol has a radio-protective effect against IR-induced hematopoietic system damage through reducing cellular ROS in HSCs and HPCs partly through the Nrf2 pathway.

Role of Parkin-mediated mitophagy in the protective effect of polydatin in sepsis-induced acute kidney injury.

Project description:BACKGROUND:We have reported that polydatin (PD) alleviates mitochondrial dysfunction in rat models of sepsis-induced acute kidney injury (SI-AKI), but the mechanism is not well understood. Here, we investigated the role of Parkin-mediated mitophagy in the protective effects of PD in SI-AKI in mice. METHODS:Sepsis was induced in the mice by caecal ligation and puncture. Mitophagy was determined by mitochondrial mass. NLRP3 inflammasome activation was determined by NLRP3, ASC and caspase-1. Mitophagy was blocked by treatment with mitochondrial division inhibitor-1 and Parkin knockout. KEY RESULTS:PD treatment increased the sepsis-induced loss of mitochondrial mass, indicating the upregulation of mitophagy. Furthermore, PD treatment mediated Parkin translocation from the cytoplasm to the mitochondria. This suggests that Parkin-mediated mitophagy is an underlying mechanism. This was confirmed by the suppression of PD-induced mitophagy in Parkin-/- mice and in mice that were treated with a mitophagy inhibitor. PD-induced Parkin translocation and mitophagy were blocked by inhibiting SIRT1; thus, activation of SIRT1 might be an important molecular mechanism that is triggered by PD. Additionally, PD treatment protected against sepsis-induced kidney injury. These effects were blocked by inhibition of Parkin-dependent mitophagy. Furthermore, PD also protected against mitochondrial dysfunction and mitochondria-dependent apoptosis, and the effect was blocked when Parkin-dependent mitophagy was inhibited. Finally, PD suppressed NLRP3 inflammasome activation that was also dependent on Parkin-mediated mitophagy. CONCLUSIONS:These findings indicate that Parkin-mediated mitophagy is important for the protective effect of PD in SI-AKI, and the underlying mechanisms include the inhibition of mitochondrial dysfunction and NLRP3 inflammasome activation.

C/EBP? deficiency sensitizes mice to ionizing radiation-induced hematopoietic and intestinal injury.

Project description:Knowledge of the mechanisms involved in the radiation response is critical for developing interventions to mitigate radiation-induced injury to normal tissues. Exposure to radiation leads to increased oxidative stress, DNA-damage, genomic instability and inflammation. The transcription factor CCAAT/enhancer binding protein delta (Cebpd; C/EBP? is implicated in regulation of these same processes, but its role in radiation response is not known. We investigated the role of C/EBP? in radiation-induced hematopoietic and intestinal injury using a Cebpd knockout mouse model. Cebpd-/- mice showed increased lethality at 7.4 and 8.5 Gy total-body irradiation (TBI), compared to Cebpd+/+ mice. Two weeks after a 6 Gy dose of TBI, Cebpd-/- mice showed decreased recovery of white blood cells, neutrophils, platelets, myeloid cells and bone marrow mononuclear cells, decreased colony-forming ability of bone marrow progenitor cells, and increased apoptosis of hematopoietic progenitor and stem cells compared to Cebpd+/+ controls. Cebpd-/- mice exhibited a significant dose-dependent decrease in intestinal crypt survival and in plasma citrulline levels compared to Cebpd+/+ mice after exposure to radiation. This was accompanied by significantly decreased expression of ?-H2AX in Cebpd-/- intestinal crypts and villi at 1 h post-TBI, increased mitotic index at 24 h post-TBI, and increase in apoptosis in intestinal crypts and stromal cells of Cebpd-/- compared to Cebpd+/+ mice at 4 h post-irradiation. This study uncovers a novel biological function for C/EBP? in promoting the response to radiation-induced DNA-damage and in protecting hematopoietic and intestinal tissues from radiation-induced injury.
