Project description:In this study we screened for changes of DNA methylation in response to X-irradiation in the lymphoblastoid cell line GM12878 and the primary lung fibroblast cell line IMR90. We employed methylated DNA-Immunoprecipitation in combination with genome wide and region specific DNA microarrays to identify preferences of radiation induced changes of methylation with respect to genomic and epigenomic characteristics.

Project description:In this study we addressed the question whether changes of DNA hydroxymethylation after X-ray irradiation occur in a random fashion or if they show preferences for specific regions or features. We did not only focus on gene loci and promotor sights but also on gene body hydroxymethylation alterations and associated changes in gene expression. A more profound insight into hydroxymethylation characteristics triggered by radiation could provide clues to mechanisms and consequences of cellular response to irradiation including the immediate consequence of DNA strand breaks associated with active DNA demethylation as well as the long term risk of tumorigenesis or other associated diseases.
Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study was to compare the lncRNA and mRNA expression profile of human fibroblast WS1 cells between 0 Gy and 5 Gy X-ray irradiation. Methods: lncRNA and mRNA-sequencing of WS1 cells were generated using Illuminal Hiseq4000, RNA-seq reads were mapped to human genome hg19 by hisat2 software. Cuffdiff software was used to analysis the differentially expressed levels of LncRNA and mRNA FPKM. Results: We identified different expressed levels of 88780 lnRNA and 20311 mRNA transcripts in WS1 cells between 0 Gy and 5 Gy X-ay irradiation. Conclusion: Our study first revealed the detail of lncRNA and mRNA expression profiles of WS1 cells after 5Gy of X-Ray irradiation
Project description:We report the application of RIP-sequencing technology for high-throughput profiling of ELAVL1 protein on the effect of lncRNA an mRNA in WS1 cells after 5 Gy X-ray irradiation
Project description:Hela cells were used to evaluate the protoporphytin IX (PpIX) effects on X-ray irradiation. Treatment conditions were (1) control group (untreated cells); (2) cells treated with 1 μg /ml PpIX for 6 hours; (3) cells irradiated with 3Gy X-rays; (4) cells treated with 1 μg /ml PpIX for 6 hours prior to irradiation with 3Gy X-rays.

Hela cells gene expressions in 4 groups were measured at 24 hours after exposure to 0 and 3 Gy X-rays plus treatment with PpIX prior to irradiation.
