Abstract
Gamma radiation causes cell injury and leads to an increased risk of cancer, so it is of practical significance to identify biomarkers for gamma radiation. We used proteomic analysis to identify differentially expressed proteins in liver tissues of C57BL/6J mice treated with gamma radiation from Cs for 360 d. We confirmed obvious pathological changes in mouse liver tissues after irradiation. Compared with the control group, 74 proteins showed a fold change of ≥1.5 in the irradiated groups. We selected 24 proteins for bioinformatics analysis and peptide mass fingerprinting and found that 20 of the identified proteins were meaningful. These proteins were associated with tumorigenesis, tumor suppression, catalysis, cell apoptosis, cytoskeleton, metabolism, gene transcription, T-cell response, and other pathways. We confirmed that both cofilin-1 and destrin were up regulated in the irradiated groups by western blot and real-time polymerase chain reaction. Our findings indicate that cofilin-1 and destrin are sensitive to gamma radiation and may be potential biomarkers for gamma radiation. Whether these proteins are involved in radiation-induced tumorigenesis requires further investigation.

[PMID: 25801977 DOI: 10.1016/j.jss.2015.02.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2014] [Revised: 01/27/2015] [Accepted: 02/11/2015] [Indexed: 10/24/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Vascular hyporesponsiveness is an important pathophysiological feature of some critical conditions such as hemorrhagic shock. Many proteins and molecules are involved in the regulation of the pathologic process, however the mechanism has still remained unclear. Our study was intended to look for the related protein markers involved in the regulation of vascular reactivity after hemorrhagic shock. METHODS Differential in-gel electrophoresis and tandem mass spectrometry were applied to quantify the differences of protein expression in the superior mesenteric arteries from hemorrhagic shock and normal rats. RESULTS A total of 2317 differentially expressed protein spots in the superior mesenteric arteries of rats before and after hemorrhagic shock were found, and 146 protein spots were selected for tandem mass spectrometry identification. Thirty-seven differentially expressed proteins were obtained, including 3 uncharacterized proteins and 34 known proteins. Among them, heat shock protein beta-1 and calmodulin were the known proteins involved in the occurrence of vascular hyporesponsiveness. Bioinformatics analysis results showed that 18 proteins were related to vasoconstriction, 11 proteins may be involved in other vascular functions such as regulation of angiogenesis and endothelial cell proliferation. CONCLUSIONS The changes of vascular responsiveness after hemorrhagic shock in rats may be associated with the upregulation or downregulation of previously mentioned protein expressions. These findings may provide the basis for understanding and further study of the mechanism and treatment targets of vascular hyporeactivity after shock.
