Abstract
BACKGROUND In the past three decades, a large body of data on the effects of exposure to ionizing radiation and the ensuing changes in gene expression has been generated. These data have allowed for an understanding of molecular-level events and shown a level of consistency in response despite the vast formats and experimental procedures being used across institutions. However, clarity on how this information may inform strategies for health risk assessment needs to be explored. An approach to bridge this gap is the adverse outcome pathway (AOP) framework. AOPs represent an illustrative framework characterizing a stressor associated with a sequential set of causally linked key events (KEs) at different levels of biological organization, beginning with a molecular initiating event (MIE) and culminating in an adverse outcome (AO). Here, we demonstrate the interpretation of transcriptomic datasets in the context of the AOP framework within the field of ionizing radiation by using a lung cancer AOP (AOP 272: https://www.aopwiki.org/aops/272) as a case example. METHODS Through the mining of the literature, radiation exposure-related transcriptomic studies in line with AOP 272 related to lung cancer, DNA damage response, and repair were identified. The differentially expressed genes within relevant studies were collated and subjected to the pathway and network analysis using Reactome and GeneMANIA platforms. Identified pathways were filtered (p < 0.001, ≥ 3 genes) and categorized based on relevance to KEs in the AOP. Gene connectivities were identified and further grouped by gene expression-informed associated events (AEs). Relevant quantitative dose-response data were used to inform the directionality in the expression of the genes in the network across AEs. RESULTS Reactome analyses identified 7 high-level biological processes with multiple pathways and associated genes that mapped to potential KEs in AOP 272. The gene connectivities were further represented as a network of AEs with associated expression profiles that highlighted patterns of gene expression levels. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates the application of transcriptomics data in AOP development and provides information on potential data gaps. Although the approach is new and anticipated to evolve, it shows promise for improving the understanding of underlying mechanisms of disease progression with a long-term vision to be predictive of adverse outcomes.

Stage I non-small cell lung cancer: Treatment modalities, Dutch daily practice and future perspectives. Cancer Treat Res Commun 2021; 28:100404. [PMID: 34058517 DOI: 10.1016/j.ctarc.2021.100404] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2021] [Revised: 05/18/2021] [Accepted: 05/20/2021] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Several treatment modalities are available for patients with stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Over the past decade, these treatment modalities have been further investigated and might have changed current treatment regimens. In this review we present an overview of the treatment options, developments and future perspectives for stage I NSCLC. Furthermore, we describe the current use of these treatment modalities in the Netherlands. MATERIALS AND METHODS A bibliographical search was performed in PubMed and the Cochrane Library for publications concerning treatment modalities for stage I NSCLC. In addition, evidence-based guidelines of the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) and the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) were studied. RESULTS The guideline-recommended treatment for operable stage I NSCLC patients is a lobectomy with systematic lymph node dissection. Inoperable patients or those refusing surgery are offered stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR). Percutaneous ablation, such as radiofrequency ablation, is a non-surgical minimally invasive technique offered to those who are ineligible for surgery or SABR. The role of systemic therapy is currently limited. However, the efficacy of immunotherapy is being investigated in clinical trials. In the Netherlands, an increasing use of SABR and a relative decrease in resection rates have been observed. CONCLUSION Surgery and SABR are currently the prevailing treatment modalities for stage I NSCLC patients. Despite optimization of treatment regimens, survival of patients with stage I NSCLC remains to be improved. Future studies are required to optimize treatment strategies, but also to investigate factors influencing treatment decision-making for patients with stage I NSCLC.

Abstract
Radiation therapy is an important modality in the treatment of lung cancer, but it can lead to radiation pneumonitis, and eventually radiation fibrosis. To date, only few available drugs can effectively manage radiation-induced pulmonary fibrosis. Lipoxins are endogenous molecules exhibit anti-inflammatory and pro-resolving effects. These molecules play a vital role in reducing excessive tissue injury and chronic inflammation; however, their effects on radiation-induced lung injury (RILI) are unknown. In this study, we investigated the effects of lipoxin A4 (LXA4) on RILI using our specialized small-animal model of RILI following focal-ablative lung irradiation (IR). LXA4 significantly inhibited immune-cell recruitment and reduced IR-induced expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and fibrotic proteins in the lung lesion sites. In addition, micro-CT revealed that LXA4 reduced IR-induced increases in lung consolidation volume. The flexiVentTM assays showed that LXA4 significantly reversed IR-induced lung function damage. Moreover, LXA4 downregulated the activities of NF-κB and the Smad-binding element promoters. The expression of FPR2, an LXA4 receptor, increased during the development of IR-induced pulmonary fibrosis, whereas silencing of endogenous LXA4 using an antagonist (WRW4) or FPR2 siRNA resulted in impaired development of pulmonary fibrosis in response to IR. Collectively, these data suggest that LXA4 could serve as a potent therapeutic agent for alleviating RILI.

Lung Stereotactic Arc Therapy in Mice: Development of Radiation Pneumopathy and Influence of HIF-1α Endothelial Deletion. Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys 2019; 104:279-290.

Abstract
PURPOSE Stereotactic body radiation therapy offers good lung local tumor control by the administration of a high dose per fraction in small volumes. Stereotactic body radiation therapy preclinical modeling is now possible, and our aim was to develop a model of focal irradiation of the mouse lung and to investigate the impact of conditional hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) deletion in the endothelium on radiation-induced tissue damage. METHODS AND MATERIALS The Small Animal Radiation Research Platform was used to create a mouse model of focal irradiation of the lung using arc therapy. HIF-1α conditional deletion was obtained by crossing mice expressing Cre recombinase under the endothelial promoter VE-cadherin (VECad-Cre+/+ mice) with HIF-1α floxed mice. RESULTS Lung stereotactic arc therapy allows thoracic wall sparing and long-term studies. However, isodose curves showed that neighboring organs received significant doses of radiation, as revealed by ipsilateral lung acute red hepatization and major gene expression level modifications. Conditional HIF-1α deletion reduced acute lung edema and tended to diminish neutrophil infiltrate, but it had no impact on long-term global tissue damage. CONCLUSIONS Arc therapy for focal high-dose irradiation of mouse lung is an efficient model for long-term studies. However, irradiation may have a strong impact on the structure and function of neighboring organs, which must be considered. HIF-1α conditional deletion has no beneficial impact on lung damage in this irradiation schedule.
