Feasibility study of multimodal imaging for redox status and glucose metabolism in tumor. Free Radic Biol Med 2024; 218:57-67.

Abstract
Understanding the tumor redox status is important for efficient cancer treatment. Here, we noninvasively detected changes in the redox environment of tumors before and after cancer treatment in the same individuals using a novel compact and portable electron paramagnetic resonance imaging (EPRI) device and compared the results with glycolytic information obtained through autoradiography using 2-deoxy-2-[18F]fluoro-d-glucose ([18F]FDG). Human colon cancer HCT116 xenografts were used in the mice. We used 3-carbamoyl-PROXYL (3CP) as a paramagnetic and redox status probe for the EPRI of tumors. The first EPRI was followed by the intraperitoneal administration of buthionine sulfoximine (BSO), an inhibitor of glutathione synthesis, or X-ray irradiation of the tumor. A second EPRI was performed on the following day. Autoradiography was performed after the second EPRI. After imaging, the tumor sections were evaluated by histological analysis and the amount of reducing substances in the tumor was measured. BSO treatment and X-ray irradiation significantly decreased the rate of 3CP reduction in tumors. Redox maps of tumors obtained from EPRI can be compared with tissue sections of approximately the same cross section. BSO treatment reduced glutathione levels in tumors, whereas X-ray irradiation did not alter the levels of any of the reducing substances. Comparison of the redox map with the autoradiography of [18F]FDG revealed that regions with high reducing power in the tumor were active in glucose metabolism; however, this correlation disappeared after X-ray irradiation. These results suggest that the novel compact and portable EPRI device is suitable for multimodal imaging, which can be used to study tumor redox status and therapeutic efficacy in cancer, and for combined analysis with other imaging modalities.

Pathol Res Pract 2023; 246:154477. [PMID: 37148837 DOI: 10.1016/j.prp.2023.154477] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2022] [Revised: 03/19/2023] [Accepted: 04/20/2023] [Indexed: 05/08/2023]
Abstract
Radiotherapy is one of the inevitable treatment approaches for several types of cancer. We aimed to show the protective and therapeutic effects of daily use of melatonin on liver tissues subjected to a single dose of 10 Gy (gamma-ray) total body radiation. Rats were divided into 6 groups, of which 10 were in each: control, sham, melatonin, radiation, radiation+melatonin, and melatonin+radiation. The rats received 10 Gy of external radiation throughout their entire bodies. The rats were given 10 mg/kg/day of melatonin intraperitoneally before or after radiation treatment, depending on the group. Histological methods, immunohistochemical analysis (Caspase-3, Sirtuin-1, α-SMA, NFΚB-p65), biochemical analysis by ELİSA (SOD, CAT, GSH-PX, MDA, TNF-α, TGF-β, PDGF, PGC-1α) and the Comet assay as a marker of DNA damage were applied to the liver tissues. Histopathological examinations showed structural changes in the liver tissue of the radiation group. Radiation treatment increased the immunoreactivity of Caspase-3, Sirtuin-1 and α-SMA, but these effects were relatively attenuated in the melatonin-treated groups. The melatonin+radiation group had statistically significant results close to those of the control group, in terms of Caspase-3, NFΚB-p65 and Sirtuin-1 immunoreactivity. In melatonin treated groups, hepatic biochemical markers, MDA, SOD, TNF-α, TGF-β levels, and DNA damage parameters were decreased. Administration of melatonin before and after radiation has beneficial effects, but using it before radiation may be more efficient. Accordingly, daily melatonin usage could mitigate ionizing radiation induced damage.

Abstract
OPINION STATEMENT Cancer patients who receive high-dose thoracic radiotherapy may develop radiation-induced heart disease (RIHD). The clinical presentation of RIHD comprises coronary artery atherosclerosis, valvular disease, pericarditis, cardiomyopathy, and conduction defects. These complications have significantly reduced due to the improved radiotherapy techniques. However, such methods still could not avoid heart radiation exposure. Furthermore, people who received relatively low-dose radiation exposures have exhibited significantly elevated RIHD risks in cohort studies of atomic bomb survivors and occupational exposures. The increased potential in exposure to natural and artificial ionizing radiation sources has emphasized the necessity to understand the development of RIHD. The pathological processes of RIHD include endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, fibrosis, and hypertrophy. The underlying mechanisms may involve the changes in oxidative stress, DNA damage response, telomere erosion, mitochondrial dysfunction, epigenetic regulation, circulation factors, protein post-translational modification, and metabolites. This review will discuss the recent advances in the mechanisms of RIHD at cellular and molecular levels.

Abstract
Cardiomyocyte apoptosis is involved in the pathogenesis of radiation-induced heart disease, but the underlying epigenetic mechanism remains elusive. We evaluated the potential mediating role of males absent on the first (MOF) in the association between epigenetic activation of p53 lysine 120 (p53K120) and X-ray radiation-induced apoptosis in H9c2 cells. H9c2 cells were pretreated for 24 h with the MOF inhibitor MG149 after 4 Gy irradiation, followed by assessment of cell proliferation, injury, and apoptosis. MOF expression was upregulated by X-ray radiation. MG149 suppressed the proliferation inhibition, reduction of mitochondrial membrane potential, ROS production, and cell apoptosis. MG149 may promote the survival of H9c2 cells via inhibition of MOF-mediated p53K120 acetylation in response to X-ray radiation-induced apoptosis. Our data indicates a MOF-associated epigenetic mechanism in H9c2 cells that promotes attenuation of X-ray radiation-induced injury.

Radiother Oncol 2022; 173:19-31. [PMID: 35533784 DOI: 10.1016/j.radonc.2022.04.030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2021] [Revised: 04/13/2022] [Accepted: 04/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The effects of radiation on the heart are dependent on dose, fractionation, overall treatment time, and pre-existing cardiovascular pathology. Murine models have played a central role in improving our understanding of the radiation response of the heart yet a wide range of exposure parameters have been used. We evaluated the study design of published murine cardiac irradiation experiments to assess gaps in the literature and to suggest guidance for the harmonisation of future study reporting. METHODS AND MATERIALS A systematic review of mouse/rat studies published 1981-2021 that examined the effect of radiation on the heart was performed. The protocol was published on PROSPERO (CRD42021238921) and the findings were reported in accordance with the PRISMA guidance. Risk of bias was assessed using the SYRCLE checklist. RESULTS 159 relevant full-text original articles were reviewed. The heart only was the target volume in 67% of the studies and simulation details were unavailable for 44% studies. Dosimetry methods were reported in 31% studies. The pulmonary effects of whole and partial heart irradiation were reported in 13% studies. Seventy-eight unique dose-fractionation schedules were evaluated. Large heterogeneity was observed in the endpoints measured, and the reporting standards were highly variable. CONCLUSIONS Current murine models of radiation cardiotoxicity cover a wide range of irradiation configurations and latency periods. There is a lack of evidence describing clinically relevant dose-fractionations, circulating biomarkers and radioprotectants. Recommendations for the consistent reporting of methods and results of in vivo cardiac irradiation studies are made to increase their suitability for informing the design of clinical studies.
