Project description:Different DIPG tumor models have different responses to radiation therapy, which can be identified by quantitative proteomics/phospho-proteomics approach
Project description:The bystander effect from ionizing radiation consists of cellular responses generated from non-irradiated cells to the irradiation of their neighbors. The bystander effect can lead to DNA damage and genomic instability in the affected cells. This non-targeted effect of radiation has received attention due to its potential implications for cancer therapy and radiation protection. Although studied extensively, a complete understanding of its molecular mechanism is the subject of ongoing research. While many studies have targeted specific factors which are suggested to be involved in the bystander effect, few have looked at whole genome gene expression in bystander cells. Furthermore, even fewer studies have looked at the expression in normal human cell lines. In this study, we have monitored transcriptional responses to γ-radiation in irradiated and bystander normal fibroblasts simultaneously using a genome-wide microarray approach. In this study we have investigated the transcriptional response in F11hTERT fibroblasts irradiated with 2 Gy, 2 hours after irradiation.
Project description:To understand the early effect of radiation therapy on tumor-infiltrating immune cells in two different tumor types, we established MC38 or Panc02-SIY tumors in C57BL/6 mice. scRNASeq was performed on CD45+ cells sorted by flow cytometry from single cell suspensions of tumors 1 day following 12Gy radiation therapy (RT), or control untreated (NT) tumors.
Project description:The bystander effect from ionizing radiation consists of cellular responses generated from non-irradiated cells to the irradiation of their neighbors. The bystander effect is predominant at low doses and can lead to DNA damage and genomic instability in the affected cells. This non-targeted effect of radiation has received attention due to its potential implications for cancer therapy and radiation protection. Although studied extensively, a complete understanding of its molecular mechanism is the subject of ongoing research. While many studies have targeted specific factors which are suggested to be involved in the bystander effect, few have looked at whole genome gene expression in bystander cells. Furthermore, even fewer studies have looked at the expression in normal human cell lines. In this study, we have monitored transcriptional responses to γ-radiation in irradiated and bystander normal fibroblasts simultaneously using a genome-wide microarray approach. Bystander fibroblasts incubated in medium from irradiated cells, showed transient enrichment (less than 1.5 fold) in ribosome and oxidative phosphorylation pathways, and neurodegenerative disease pathways associated with mitochondrial dysfunctions. Bystander fibroblasts did not, however, display increases in oxidative stress, a phenomenon often linked with the radiation induced bystander effect. Total RNA was isolated from normal human fibroblasts irradiated with 2.0 Gy and fibroblasts incubated with medium from sham irradiated and irradiated cells 2 h after irradiation. RNA was isolated 4, 8 and 26 h after irradiation and there are 4 replicates for each sample for a total of 36 samples.
Project description:The bystander effect from ionizing radiation consists of cellular responses generated from unirradiated cells to the irradiation of their neighbors. The bystander effect can lead to DNA damage and genomic instability in the affected cells. This non-targeted effect of radiation has received attention due to its potential implications for cancer therapy and radiation protection. Although studied extensively, a complete understanding of its molecular mechanism is the subject of ongoing research. While many studies have targeted specific factors which are suggested to be involved in the bystander effect, few have looked at whole genome gene expression in bystander cells. Furthermore, even fewer studies have looked at the expression in noncancerous human cell lines. In this study we have used a genome-wide microarray approach to investigate transcriptional responses in irradiated and bystander immortalized human fibroblasts following 0.1 Gy ?-particle irradiation. Total RNA was isolated from F11hTERT fibroblasts irradiated with 0.1 Gy ?-particles and bystander fibroblasts receiving medium from control (sham irradiated) and irradiated cells (0.1 Gy). RNA was isolated 4, 8 and 26 h after irradiation.

Project description:In this study, radiation therapy was performed on mouse breast cancer spontaneous gene mice (MMTV-PyMT) to obtain radiation therapy model of breast cancer mice. To simulate clinical breast cancer radiotherapy and study the differential proteins of breast cancer radiotherapy resistance. MMTV-PyMT mice were randomly divided into two groups, and the radiotherapy group was given the same dose 5 times (3GY, once every 2 days) when the breast cancer tumor grew to an appropriate size (200mm3). The protein extracted from mouse tumor was analyzed by mass spectrometry.
