Project description:Previous studies have shown that exposure to ionising radiation (IR) results in DNA methylation changes in plants. However, to the best of our knowledge, this phenomenon is yet to be studied across multiple generations. Furthermore, the exact role of these changes in the IR-induced plant response is still far from understood. Here, we study the effect of gamma radiation on DNA methylation and its effect across generations in young Arabidopsis plant. A multigenerational set-up was used in which three generations of seven-day old Arabidopsis thaliana plants were exposed to either of the different radiation treatments (30 mGy h-1, 60 mGy h-1, 110 mGy h-1, or 430 mGy h-1) or to natural background radiation (control condition) for 14 days. The parental generation consisted of previously non-exposed plants, whereas generation 1 and generation 2 plants had already received a similar irradiation in the previous one or two generations, respectively. Directly after exposure the entire methylomes were analysed with UPLC-MS to measure whole genome methylation levels. Whole genome bisulphite sequencing (WGBS) was used to identify differentially methylated regions (DMRs), including their methylation context in the three generations in three different radiation conditions (control, 30 mGy/h, and 110 mGy/h). Both intra- and intergenerational comparisons of the genes and transposable elements (TEs) associated with the DMRs were made across the gamma radiation exposure conditions. It was apparent that there was a higher number of changes in CpG methylation, whereas only limited changes in CHG methylation occurred and no changes in CHH methylation were observed. A clear increase in IR-induced DMRs was seen over the three generations that were exposed to the lowest dose rate, where Gen 2 had a markedly higher number of DMRs than the previous two generations (Parent and Gen 1). Counterintuitively, we did not see significant differences in the plants exposed to the higher dose rate. In addition, a large number of DMRs associated with TEs were found, the majority of them being hyper methylated, likely leading to more genetic stability. Next to that, a significant number of DMRs were associated with genes (either in their promoter associated region or gene body). A functional analysis of these genes (not included in with this data) showed an enrichment for genes related to development as well as various stress responses, including DNA repair, RNA splicing, and (a)biotic stress responses. These observations indicate a role of DNA methylation in the regulation of these genes in response to IR exposure and shows a possible role for epigenetics in adaptation to IR in plants.

Both intra- and intergenerational comparisons of the genes and transposable elements associated with the DMRs were made. Taking the methylation context into account, the highest number of changes were found for cytosines followed directly by guanine (CG methylation), whereas only limited changes in CHG methylation occurred and no changes in CHH methylation were observed. A clear increase in IR-induced DMRs was seen over the three generations that were exposed to the lowest dose rate, where generation 2 had a markedly higher number of DMRs than the previous two generations (Parent and generation 1).

Project description:S. aureus was exposed to gamma radiation at an irradiation dose of 100 Gy, and its descendant were cultured under normal conditions. Protein identification and quantification of unirradiated, irradiated, and descendant of irradiated S. aureus were performed using DIA proteomic technology to obtain protein abundance profiles for each group. Combined with biological experiments, further functional enrichment analysis and protein-protein interaction network analysis were performed to explore the effect of gamma radiation on the pathogenicity of S. aureus.

Project description:We performed comparative RNA sequencing of the early (4 hrs) dose response (0.5 – 200 cGy whole body dose, 10 dose levels) of the mouse aorta to proton and gamma radiation. Total-body proton radiation of conscious animals was performed using a proton beam produced by a cyclotron system, while total-body gamma radiation of animals was performed using a Caesium-137 gamma source. A trend analysis identified genes that showed a dose response, using data permutation to estimate a false discovery rate (q-value) for each gene. We identified 29 and 194 genes (q-value ≤ 0.1) that were upregulated with increasing doses of proton and gamma radiation, respectively. No genes were down-regulated. While fewer genes were dose-responsive to proton radiation, the magnitude of the effect was greater than with gamma radiation. These highly responsive genes were enriched for pathways involved in the response to DNA damage, apoptosis, cellular stress and inflammation (p < 0.01). Gamma radiation responsive genes included the same pathways, but extended to genes in vasculature specific pathways. Genes responsive to both radiation types (19 genes at q-value ≤ 0.1) showed almost perfectly superimposable dose-response relationships. We observed the same superimposable dose response relationship of gamma and proton radiations in a subset of genes validated by quantitative PCR not only in the aorta but also in liver, lung, heart and kidney. Despite a relative similar relative biological effectiveness of protons and gamma photons and the activation of canonical radiation response pathways by both radiation types, we detected marked differences in the genomic response. It seems plausible that these genomic differences translate into differences in the biological processes leading to cardiovascular pathologies.

Project description:Plants exhibit a robust transcriptional response to gamma radiation which includes the induction of transcripts required for homologous recombination and the suppression of transcripts that promote cell cycle progression. Various DNA damaging agents induce different spectra of DNA damage as well as M-bM-^@M-^\collateralM-bM-^@M-^] damage to other cellular components and therefore are not expected to provoke identical responses by the cell. Here we study the effects of two different types of ionizing radiation (IR) treatment, HZE (1 GeV Fe26+ high mass, high charge, and high energy relativistic particles) and gamma photons, on the transcriptome of Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings. Both types of IR induce small clusters of radicals that can result in the formation of double strand breaks (DSBs), but HZE also produces linear arrays of extremely clustered damage. We performed these experiments across a range of time points (1.5-24 h after irradiation) in both wild-type plants and in mutants defective in the DSB-sensing protein kinase ATM. The two types of IR exhibit a shared double strand break-repair-related damage response, although they differ slightly in the timing, degree, and ATM-dependence of the response. The ATM-dependent, DNA metabolism-related transcripts of the M-bM-^@M-^\DSB responseM-bM-^@M-^] were also induced by other DNA damaging agents, but were not induced by conventional stresses. Both Gamma and HZE irradiation induced, at 24 h post-irradiation, ATM-dependent transcripts associated with a variety of conventional stresses; these were overrepresented for pathogen response, rather than DNA metabolism. In contrast, only HZE-irradiated plants, at 1.5 h after irradiation, exhibited an additional and very extensive transcriptional response, shared with plants experiencing M-bM-^@M-^\extended night.M-bM-^@M-^] This response was not apparent in gamma-irradiated plants. We treated 5-day-old WT and atm-1 seedlings of Arabidopsis thaliana with 100 Gy of Gamma radiation (over a span of 15 minutes) or 30 Gy of HZE (over a span of approximately 12 minutes). Gamma irradiations were completed at 8:40 am, while HZE irradiations were conducted in two runs (due to space limitations) which were completed at 1:09 and 1:28pm respectively. Gamma treated seedlings were sampled at 10:10 am, 11:40 am, 2:55 pm, 8:40 pm, and 8:40 am. HZE treated seedlings were sampled at 2:39 pm, 4:09 pm, 7:24 pm, 1:09 am, and 1:09 pm. Un-irradiated WT and atm-1 control seedlings were sampled at 10:45 am on Day #1 and 9:15 am on Day #2. There are a total of 22 experimental or control conditions, with two replicates per condition, yielding 44 samples overall.
