Drosophila melanogaster Show a Threshold Effect in Response to Radiation

ABSTRACT: We investigate the biological effects of radiation using Drosophila Melanogaster as a model organism, focusing on gene expression and lifespan analysis to determine the effect of different radiation doses. Our results support a threshold effect in response to radiation: no effect on lifespan and no permanent effect on gene expression is seen at doses below 10,000 Roentgens.

Drosophila melanogaster Show a Threshold Effect in Response to Radiation

Project description:We investigate the biological effects of radiation using Drosophila Melanogaster as a model organism, focusing on gene expression and lifespan analysis to determine the effect of different radiation doses. Our results support a threshold effect in response to radiation: no effect on lifespan and no permanent effect on gene expression is seen at doses below 10,000 Roentgens. Adult male Drosophila were irradiated 2 days after eclosion, with one of 6 radiation doses: 10; 1,000; 5,000; 10,000; 20,000 Roentgens. Samples were taken at 3 time points (2, 10 and 20 days post-irradiation).

Drosophila melanogaster show a threshold effect in response to radiation.

Project description:We investigate the biological effects of radiation using adult Drosophila melanogaster as a model organism, focusing on gene expression and lifespan analysis to determine the effect of different radiation doses. Our results support a threshold effect in response to radiation: no effect on lifespan and no permanent effect on gene expression is seen at incident radiation levels below 100 J/kg. We also find that it is more appropriate to compare radiation effects in flies using the absorbed energy rather than incident radiation levels.

Radiation exposure of human coronary artery endothelial cells - 1 day, 7 days, 14 days post-irradiation

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).

Fe ions and X-ray radiation exposure of Est2-immortalised human coronary artery endothelial cells - 1 day and 7 days post-irradiation

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 high LET (Fe ions) and low LET (X-ray) radiation on endothelial cells, we performed a microarray analysis on immortalized human coronary artery endothelial cells irradiated with 2.00 Gy and compared them with sham-irradiated samples. RNA was extracted at different time points after irradiation (1 day, 7 days).

MYC threshold required to maintain tumor phenotype

Project description:We demonstrate that there is a level of MYC expression that is required for maintaining a tumor phenotype and at this threshold there is a switch from a state of cellular proliferation to a state of proliferative arrest and apoptosis. We analyzed changes in gene expression by oligonucleotide microarray analysis and quantitative PCR and found significant changes (FDR=5%) in 2348 down regulated genes and 1573 upregulated genes. Critical changes in gene expression that occurred at or near the threshold level of MYC expression includes genes that have been implicated in G1/S, G2/M cell cycle checkpoint pathways and death receptor/apoptosis signaling. Keywords: Dose response - MYC inactivation by doxycycline treatment

Study of low dose gamma irradiation effects in esophageal epithelial cell fate

Project description:Effect of low-doses of ionizing radiation on the behaviour of epithelial cells. The aim of the study is to check whether a single exposure of 50 mGy of ioninzing radiation promotes changes in RNA transcription levels and/or mutations.

Will using a low-threshold faecal immunochemical test compared to the higher-threshold test used in the Bowel Cancer Screening Programme reduce the number of bowel cancer cases?

Project description:Background and study aims The NHS Bowel Cancer Screening Programme (BCSP) offers a stool test every 2 years which checks for the presence of blood as this may indicate bowel cancer or something that may develop into cancer over time. From June 2019, the BCSP began using a new stool test called FIT, which quantifies how much blood, if any, is present. If the FIT result gives a level above a certain number or threshold, the patient is referred for a more invasive examination. This threshold can be set at any level, but in general, the lower the FIT threshold, the more sensitive the test, resulting in more bowel cancers being detected. Therefore, the optimal FIT threshold must balance the benefits of detecting potential cancers early versus the risk and costs of undergoing more invasive investigations. The main aim of this study is to determine if using a low-threshold FIT compared to the higher-threshold FIT used in the BCSP will reduce the number of bowel cancer cases. This is important because if the study shows that low-threshold FIT reduces the number of bowel cancers and subsequent deaths, and is cost-effective, a strong case could be made to lower the FIT threshold used in the BCSP. This would mean that everyone taking part in screening would benefit from a more sensitive test. Who can participate? Men and women aged 60-66 who are eligible for FIT screening through the English BCSP What does the study involve? Participants will be recruited through the BCSP and randomly allocated to either a low- or the standard higher-threshold FIT used in the BCSP. Recruited participants will complete their bowel cancer screening as normal. Over a 10-year period, the researchers will examine data from up to five FITs per person to determine how much more effective low-threshold FIT is at reducing the number of bowel cancers and subsequent deaths from this disease.
