Project description:Gene expression analysis of peripheral blood leukocytes (PB MNCs) to develop expression profiles that accurately reflect prior radiation exposure. Keywords: Comparative, exposure dosage, C57BI6 Murine Irradiation Studies We have made use of gene expression analysis of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PB MNCs) to develop expression profiles that accurately reflect prior radiation exposure. Importantly, we demonstrate that expression profiles can be developed that not only predict radiation exposure in mice but also distinguish the level of radiation exposure, ranging from 50 cGy to 1000 cGy. Likewise, a molecular signature of radiation response developed solely from irradiated human patient samples can predict and distinguish irradiated human PB samples from non-irradiated samples with an accuracy of 90%, sensitivity of 85% and specificity of 94%. We further demonstrate that a radiation profile developed in the mouse can correctly distinguish PB samples from irradiated and non-irradiated human patients with an accuracy of 77%, sensitivity of 82% and specificity of 75%. Taken together, these data demonstrate that molecular profiles can be generated which are highly predictive of different levels of radiation exposure in mice and humans. Mouse Dataset only

Project description:We have successfully generated human induced neural progenitor cells (iNPCs) from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PB MNCs). To gain further insights into the transcriptional activation and cellular identity of human iNPCs, we compared the transcriptome of human iNPCs with PB MNCs and published database CORTECON and BrainSpan.

Project description:Previous work has demonstrated the potential for peripheral blood (PB) gene expression profiling for the detection of disease or environmental exposures. We have sought to determine the impact of several variables on the PB gene expression profile of an environmental exposure, ionizing radiation, and to determine the specificity of the PB signature of radiation versus other genotoxic stresses. Keywords: peripheral blood, gene expression study, radiation reponse We have sought to determine the impact of several variables on the PB gene expression profile of an environmental exposure, ionizing radiation, and to determine the specificity of the PB signature of radiation versus other genotoxic stresses. Neither genotype differences nor the time of PB sampling caused any lessening of the accuracy of PB signatures to predict radiation exposure, but sex difference did influence the accuracy of the prediction of radiation exposure at the lowest level (50 cGy). A PB signature of sepsis was also generated and both the PB signature of radiation and the PB signature of sepsis were found to be 100% specific at distinguishing irradiated from septic animals. We also identified human PB signatures of radiation exposure and chemotherapy treatment which distinguished irradiated patients and chemotherapy-treated individuals within a heterogeneous population with accuracies of 90% and 81%, respectively. Human and Murine samples used in models Peripheral blood was collected from patients prior to and 6 hrs following total body irradiation with 150 to 200 cGy as part of their pre-transplantation conditioning. For additional comparison, peripheral blood was obtained from healthy volunteers and an additional cohort of patients prior to and 6 hrs following the initiation of alkylator-based chemotherapy alone (without radiotherapy).

Project description:The use of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) is an exciting frontier in the study and treatment of human diseases through the generation of specific cell types. Here we show the derivation of iPSCs from human non-mobilized peripheral blood (PB) and bone marrow (BM) mononuclear cells (MNCs) by retroviral transduction of OCT3/4, SOX2, KLF4 and c-MYC. The PB- and BM-derived iPSCs were indistinguishable from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) with respect to morphology, expression of surface antigens and pluripotency-associated transcription factors, global gene expression profiles and differentiation potential in vitro and in vivo. Infected PB and BM MNCs gave rise to iPSCs in the presence of several cytokines, although transduction efficiencies were not high. We found that 5×105 PB MNCs, which corresponds to less than 1 ml of PB, was enough for the generation of several iPSC colonies. Generation of iPSCs from MNCs of non-mobilized PB, with its relative efficiency and ease of harvesting, could enable the therapeutic use of patient-specific pluripotent stem cells.

Project description:One of the most likely risks astronauts on long duration space missions face is exposure to ionizing radiation associated with highly energetic and charged heavy (HZE) particles. Since access to medical expertise on such a mission is limited at best, early diagnosis and mitigation of such exposure is critical. In order to accurately determine the dosage within 1 hour post-exposure, dose-dependent âbiomarkersâ are needed. Therefore, we performed a dose-course transcriptional analysis for radiation exposure at 0, 0.3, 1.5, and 3.0 Gy with corresponding time point at 1 hour (hr) post-exposure using Affymetrix® GeneChip® Human Gene 1.0 ST v1 Array chips. The analysis of our data suggests a set of sensitive genetic biomarkers specific to each radiation level as well as generic radiation response biomarkers. Upregulated biomarkers can then be used within lab-on-a-chip (LOC) systems to detect exposure to ionizing radiation. A total of sixteen human samples representing radiation exposure at levels 0 Gy, 0.3 Gy, 1.5 Gy and 3.0 Gy at time point 1 hour (hr) post-exposure were constructed. Blood samples were extracted from four human volunteers, and were irradiated. Leukocytes were extracted, and gene expression was measured. Samples for all four volunteers were measured at 1 hr for all four dose levels, resulting in four replicates at each dose level. Thus, a total of 4 samples at each of the four radiation levels were sampled, yielding the total of 16 samples.

Project description:The development of a biodosimetric assay based on the combined gene expression analysis of ex vivo-irradiated human peripheral blood (PB) and humans treated with total body irradiation has been developed. Gene expression profile signature of human radiation injury into a rapid and high-throughput chemical ligation-dependent probe amplification assay (CLPA) has been shown to discriminate 6 radiation dose levels in human PB. Candidate gene lists were first developed assaying human ex vivo and human TBI samples on the Affymetrix platform. For the Ex Vivo samples, healthy consented adult donor was randomly assigned to a radiation group and labeled with the target dose of 0 cGy, 150 cGy, 300 cGy, or 600 cGy. In addition to the radiation exposures, the samples were also treated with either no treatment, GCSF, or LPS at time points 6 hours and 24 hours. Radiation expire times from the Cs137 irradiator were calculated to achieve target doses specific for tubes filled with blood and inserted in the roaring test tube holder. The dose rate was 480 cGy/min for the duration of the study. The healthy donors were enrolled to participate in this study following a protocol to collect PB samples that was previously approved by the Duke University Institutional Review Board. For the TBI samples, adult patients, ages 21 to 66, were evaluated at the Duke University Adult Bone Marrow Transplantation Program enrolled in a Duke IRB-approved protocol to collect PB prior to and post TBI conditioning. With approval from the Duke University Institutional Review Board (IRB), between 5-12 mL of peripheral blood was collected from consented patients prior to and 6 hours following TBI with 150-200 cGy as part of their pre-transplantation conditioning. All patients receiving non-myeloablative conditioning were treated with 200 cGy of TBI from a linear accelerator at a dose rate of 20 cGy/min. All patients who underwent TBI-based myeloablative allogeneic or autologous stem-cell transplantation received radiation fractionated at 150 cGy per fraction at 20 cGy/min. All patients had PB collected (50 ml) prior to and 6 hours following exposure to either 200 cGy or 150 cGy radiation treatment. The dose exposure for TBI patients used in this study were 0 cGy, 150 cGy, 450 cGy and 1050 cGy at 0, 6, 30 and 78 hours post irradiation. Total RNA was extracted and assayed on the Affymetrix platform.

Project description:Background: Current evidence indicates that even low-level lead (Pb) exposure can have detrimental effects, especially in children. We tested the hypothesis that Pb exposure alters gene expression patterns in peripheral blood cells and that these changes reflect dose-specific alterations in the activity of particular pathways. Methodology/Principal Finding: Using Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 arrays, we examined gene expression changes in the peripheral blood of female Balb/c mice following exposure to per os lead acetate trihydrate or plain drinking water for two weeks and after a two-week recovery period. Data sets were RMA-normalized and dose-specific signatures were generated using established methods of supervised classification and binary regression. Pathway activity was analyzed using the ScoreSignatures module from GenePattern. Conclusions/Significance: The low-level Pb signature was 93% sensitive and 100% specific in classifying samples a leave-one-out crossvalidation. The high-level Pb signature demonstrated 100% sensitivity and specificity in the leave-one-out crossvalidation. These two signatures exhibited dose-specificity in their ability to predict Pb exposure and had little overlap in terms of constituent genes. The signatures also seemed to reflect current levels of Pb exposure rather than past exposure. Finally, the two doses showed differential activation of cellular pathways. Low-level Pb exposure increased activity of the interferon-gamma pathway, whereas high-level Pb exposure increased activity of the E2F1 pathway.

We isolate total RNA from 72 mouse whole blood samples. These included samples following a 2-week exposure to lead acetate trihydrate (untreated controls = 7; Low Pb 5ug/mL drinking water = 15; High Pb 50ug/mL drinking water = 15) and additional samples following a 2-week recovery period with plain drinking water (untreated controls = 7; Low Pb group = 15; High Pb group = 13).
