Project description:Background: Radiation exposure due to the detonation of an improvised nuclear device remains a major security concern. Radiation from such a device involves a combination of photons and neutrons. Although photons will make the greater contribution to the total dose, neutrons will certainly have an impact on the severity of the exposure as they have high relative biological effectiveness. Results: We investigated the gene expression signatures in the blood of mice exposed to 3 Gy x-rays, 0.75 Gy of neutrons, or to mixed field photon/neutron with the neutron fraction contributing 5%, 15%, or 25% of a total 3 Gy radiation dose. Gene ontology and pathway analysis revealed that genes involved in protein ubiquitination pathways were significantly overrepresented in all radiation doses and qualities. On the other hand, eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (EIF2) signaling pathway was identified as one of the top 10 ranked canonical pathways in neutron, but not pure x-ray, exposures. In addition, the related mTOR and regulation of EIF4/p70S6K pathways were also significantly underrepresented in the exposures with a neutron component, but not in x-ray radiation. The majority of the changed genes in these pathways belonged to the ribosome biogenesis and translation machinery and included several translation initiation factors (e.g. Eif2ak4, Eif3f), as well as 40S and 60S ribosomal subunits (e.g. Rsp19, Rpl19, Rpl27). Many of the differentially downregulated ribosomal genes (e.g. RPS19, RPS28) have been causally associated with human bone marrow failure syndromes and hematologic malignancies. We also observed downregulation of transfer RNA processes, in the neutron-only exposure (p < 0.005). Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (p < 0.05) of differentially expressed genes predicted significantly suppressed activity of the upstream regulators c-Myc and Mycn, transcription factors known to control ribosome biogenesis. Conclusions: We describe the gene expression profile of mouse blood following exposure to mixed field neutron/x-ray irradiation. We have discovered that pathways related to protein translation are significantly underrepresented in the exposures containing a neutron component. Our results highlight the significance of neutron exposures that even the smallest percentage can have profound biological effects that will affect medical management and treatment decisions in case of a radiological emergency.

Project description:Background: In the event of an improvised nuclear device detonation, the prompt radiation exposure would consist of γ rays plus a neutron component that would contribute to the total dose. As neutrons cause more complex and difficult to repair damage to cells that would result in more severe health burden to affected individuals, it is paramount to be able to estimate the contribution of neutrons to an estimated dose, to provide information for those making treatment decisions. Results: Mice exposed to either 0.25 or 1 Gy of neutron or 1 or 4 Gy x-ray radiation were sacrificed at 1 or 7 days after exposure. Whole genome microarray analysis identified 7,285 and 5,045 differentially expressed genes in the blood of mice exposed to neutron or x-ray radiation, respectively. Neutron exposure resulted in mostly downregulated genes, whereas x-rays showed both down- and up-regulated genes. A total of 34 differentially expressed genes were regulated in response to all ≥1 Gy exposures at both times. Of these, 25 genes were consistently downregulated at days 1 and 7, whereas 9 genes, including the transcription factor E2f2, showed bi-directional regulation; being downregulated at day 1, while upregulated at day 7. Gene ontology analysis revealed that genes involved in nucleic acid metabolism processes were persistently downregulated in neutron irradiated mice, whereas genes involved in lipid metabolism were upregulated in x-ray irradiated animals. Most biological processes significantly enriched at both timepoints were consistently represented by either under- or over-expressed genes. In contrast, cell cycle processes were significant among down-regulated genes at day 1, but among up-regulated genes at day 7 after exposure to either neutron or x-rays. Cell cycle genes downregulated at day 1 were mostly distinct from the cell cycle genes upregulated at day 7. However, five cell cycle genes, Fzr1, Ube2c, Ccna2, Nusap1, and Cdc25b, were both downregulated at day 1 and upregulated at day 7. Conclusions: We describe, for the first time, the gene expression profile of mouse blood cells following exposure to neutrons. We have found that neutron radiation results in both distinct and common gene expression patterns compared with x-ray radiation.

Project description:The objective of this investigation was to characterize, at individual level, the transcriptional response and the onset of regenerative processes in mouse skin irradiated with different doses of fast neutrons. We performed a high-throughput gene expression analysis, by DNA oligonucleotide microarray on 24 three months old C57Bl/6 mice irradiated with 0, 0,2 and 1 Gy of mono-energetic 14 MeV neutron. The results, partially validated by quantitative real time RT-PCR, showed an up-regulation of a sub-class of keratin and keratin associated proteins, and of components of the S100 family of Ca2+-binding proteins which was limited to the lower dose. We conclude that the dose-dependent differential gene expression, reminiscent of the onset of re-epithelialization and wound healing, depends upon the proportion of cells carrying multiple lesions at chromosomal level post-irradiation, and it represents an in vivo evidence of a skin regenerative program exerted independently from DNA repair-associated pathways. Four condition experiment: 6h and 24h from 0.2 Gy neutron irradiation; 6h and 24 from 1 Gy neutron irradiation. One replicate for each condition

Project description:Here, male and female B6C3F1 mice were given single or fractionated whole-body exposure(s) to a monoenergetic carbon ion radiotherapy beam at the Heavy Ion Medical Accelerator in Chiba, Japan, matching the radiation quality delivered to the normal tissue ahead of the tumour volume. These mice were then monitored for the remainder of their lifespan and a large number of T cell lymphomas were analysed, alongside those arising in mice exposed to equivalent doses of standard Cs137 gamma ray-irradiation. Using genome-wide DNA copy number analysis to identify genomic loci involved in radiation-induced lymphomagenesis and subsequent detailed analysis of Notch1, Ikaros, Pten, Trp53 and Bcl11b genes we compared the genetic profile of the carbon ion- and gamma ray-induced tumours. The canonical set of genes previously associated with radiation-induced T cell lymphoma was identified in both radiation groups. While the pattern of disruption of the various pathways was somewhat different between the radiation types, most notably Pten mutation frequency and loss of heterozygosity flanking Bcl11b, the most striking finding was the observation of large interstitial deletions at various sites across the genome in carbon ion-induced tumours, which were only seen infrequently in the gamma ray-induced tumours analysed. 32 unique tumours (12 gamma ray-induced, 20 carbon ion-induced) each with sex-matched reference DNA

Project description:Breast cancer ranks top in the incidence among the main sites of female cancer in Japan. The epidemiological study on atomic bomb survivors has suggested that the excess relative risk for breast cancer is higher than any other sites. Little is known, however, about the molecular mechanisms of breast cancer induction by radiation. Therefore, we analyzed here the genome-wide copy number aberration of radiation-induced rat mammary carcinomas using microarray-based comparative genomic hybridization (array-CGH). Mammary carcinomas were induced by 2 Gy gamma irradiation of Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats at 3 or 7 weeks of age. We examined 14 mammary carcinomas induced by gamma-irradiation (2 Gy) and found 26 aberrations including trisomies of chromosomes 4 and 10 in 3 and 1 carcinomas, respectively, and deletion of chromosomes 3q35q36 and 5q32 (Cdkn2a and Cdkn2b region) in 2 and 2 carcinomas, respectively. On the other hand, only one aberration (amplification of chromosome 10q31) was observed in four spontaneous mammary carcinomas. These results suggest that the trisomy of chromosome 4 and deletion of chromosomes 3q35q36 and 5q32 were associated with radiation exposure.
