We investigated if tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α acts synergistically with irradiation, and how its activity is influenced by platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1). We studied murine models of selective single-dose (25 Gy) liver irradiation with and without TNF-α application (2 μg/mouse; i.p.). In serum of wild-type (wt)-mice, irradiation induced a mild increase in hepatic damage marker aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in comparison to sham-irradiated controls. AST levels further increased in mice treated with both irradiation and TNF-α. Accordingly, elevated numbers of leucocytes and increased expression of the macrophage marker CD68 were observed in the liver of these mice. In parallel to hepatic damage, a consecutive decrease in expression of hepatic PECAM-1 was found in mice that received radiation or TNF-α treatment alone. The combination of radiation and TNF-α induced an additional significant decline of PECAM-1. Furthermore, increased expression of hepatic lipocalin-2 (LCN-2), a hepatoprotective protein, was detected at mRNA and protein levels after irradiation or TNF-α treatment alone and the combination of both. Signal transducer and activator of transcription-3 (STAT-3) seems to be involved in the signalling cascade. To study the involvement of PECAM-1 in hepatic damage more deeply, the liver of both wt- and PECAM-1-knock-out-mice were selectively irradiated (25 Gy). Thereby, ko-mice showed higher liver damage as revealed by elevated AST levels, but also increased hepatoprotective LCN-2 expression. Our studies show that TNF-α has a pivotal role in radiation-induced hepatic damage. It acts in concert with irradiation and its activity is modulated by PECAM-1, which mediates pro- and anti-inflammatory signalling."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1111/jcmm.14224"],["dc.identifier.pmid","30761739"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/15851"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/59695"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.relation.issn","1582-4934"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0"],["dc.subject.ddc","610"],["dc.title","PECAM-1 modulates liver damage induced by synergistic effects of TNF-α and irradiation"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI PMID PMC2013Journal Article [["dc.bibliographiccitation.firstpage","321"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.issue","3"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","Radiation and Environmental Biophysics"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.lastpage","338"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.volume","52"],["dc.contributor.author","Rave-Fraenk, Margret"],["dc.contributor.author","Malik, Ihtzaz Ahmed"],["dc.contributor.author","Christiansen, Hans"],["dc.contributor.author","Naz, Naila"],["dc.contributor.author","Sultan, Sadaf"],["dc.contributor.author","Amanzada, Ahmad"],["dc.contributor.author","Blaschke, Martina"],["dc.contributor.author","Cameron, Silke"],["dc.contributor.author","Ahmad, Shakil"],["dc.contributor.author","Hess, Clemens Friedrich"],["dc.contributor.author","Ramadori, Giuliano"],["dc.contributor.author","Moriconi, Federico"],["dc.date.accessioned","2018-11-07T09:22:03Z"],["dc.date.available","2018-11-07T09:22:03Z"],["dc.date.issued","2013"],["dc.description.abstract","The liver is considered a radiosensitive organ. However, in rats, high single-dose irradiation (HDI) showed only mild effects. Consequences of fractionated irradiation (FI) in such an animal model have not been studied so far. Rats were exposed to selective liver FI (total dose 60 Gy, 2 Gy/day) or HDI (25 Gy) and were killed three months after the end of irradiation. To study acute effects, HDI-treated rats were additionally killed at several time points between 1 and 48 h. Three months after irradiation, no differences between FI and HDI treatment were found for macroscopically detectable small \"scars\" on the liver surface and for an increased number of neutrophil granulocytes distributed in the portal fields and through the liver parenchyma. As well, no changes in HE-stained tissues or clear signs of fibrosis were found around the portal vessels. Differences were seen for the number of bile ducts being increased in FI- but not in HDI-treated livers. Serum levels indicative of liver damage were determined for alkaline phosphatase (AP), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), gamma-glutamyltransferase (gamma GT) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). A significant increase of AP was detected only after FI while HDI led to the significant increases of AST and LDH serum levels. By performing RT-PCR, we detected up-regulation of matrix metalloproteinases, MMP-2, MMP-9, MMP-14, and of their inhibitors, TIMP-1, TIMP-2 and TIMP-3, shortly after HDI, but not at 3 month after FI or HDI.

Methods A single dose of 25 Gray was administered percutaneously to the liver of randomly paired rats after a planning CT scan.

Results After liver irradiation, LCN2 serum levels increased significantly up to 2.7g/ml within 6h and stayed elevated over 24h. LCN2 specific transcripts increased significantly up to 552 +/- 109-fold at 24h after liver irradiation, which was further confirmed at protein level. 2-macroglobulin and hemoxygenase-1 also showed an increase, but the magnitude was less as compared to LCN2.

Both, at mRNA and protein level, a time-dependent decrease in hepatic PECAM-1, corresponding to an increase in intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) (6hrs) was detected in WT-mice after irradiation. Immunohistologically, an increased number of neutrophil granulocytes (NG) (but not of mononuclear phagocytes) was observed in the liver of WT and PECAM-1-KO mice at 6hrs after irradiation. The number of recruited NG was higher and prolonged until 24hrs in KO compared to WT-mice. Correspondingly, a significant induction of hepatic tumour necrosis factor (TNF)- and CXC-chemokines (KC/CXCL1 interleukin-8/CXCL8) was detected together with an elevation of serum liver transaminases (6-24hrs) in WT and KO-mice. Likewise, phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription-3 (STAT-3) was observed in both animal groups after irradiation. The level of all investigated proteins as well as of the liver transaminases was significantly higher in KO than WT-mice. In the cell-line U937, irradiation led to a reduction in PECAM-1 in parallel to an increased ICAM-1 expression. TNF--blockage by anti-TNF- prevented this change in both proteins in cell culture.

Material and Methods: Rat livers in vivo were irradiated selectively at 25 Gy. Isolated hepatocytes in vitro were irradiated at 8 Gy. RNA extracted within 48 h after irradiation in vivo and in vitro was analyzed by real-time PCR (polymerase chain reaction) and Northern blot.

Indeed, the CCL2, CXCL1, CXCL2, and CXCL5 genes were strongly expressed and further up-regulated in liver (myo)fibroblasts after irradiation (8 Gy).

The current study investigates hepatic fat accumulation and fatty acid transportation in a rat model of single dose liver irradiation (25-Gy). Rat livers were selectively irradiated in-vivo (25-Gy), sham-irradiated rats served as controls. Hepatic lipids were studied by colorimetric assays in liver and serum. Intracellular lipids, protein and mRNA were studied by Nile red staining, immunohistology, Western Blot analysis and RT-PCR in liver, respectively. Changes in FAT/CD36 expression were studied in-vitro in a human monocyte cell line U937 after irradiation in presence or absence of infliximab (IFX). Nile Red staining of liver cryosections showed a quick (12-48 h) increase in fat droplets. Accordingly, hepatic triglycerides (TG) and free fatty acids (FFA) were elevated. An early increase (3-6 h) in the serum level of HDL-C, TG and cholesterol was measured after single dose irradiation followed by a decrease thereafter. Furthermore, expression of the fat transporter protein FAT/CD36 was increased, immunohistochemistry revealed basolateral and cytoplasmic expression in hepatocytes. Moreover, apolipoprotein-B100, -C3 and enzymes (acetyl-CoA carboxylase, lipoprotein-lipase, carnitine-palmitoyltransferase, malonyl-CoA-decarboxylase) involved in fat metabolism were induced at 12-24 h. Early activation of the NFk beta pathway (I kappa B alpha) by TNF-alpha was seen, followed by a significant elevation of serum markers for liver damage (AST and GLDH). TNF-alpha blockage by anti-TNF-alpha in cell culture (U937) prevented the increase of FAT/CD36 caused by irradiation.

TNF-alpha)."],["dc.description.sponsorship","Open-Access Publikationsfonds 2014"],["dc.identifier.isi","000345120900098"],["dc.identifier.pmid","25197426"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/10890"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/34684"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","E-century Publishing Corp"],["dc.relation.issn","1936-2625"],["dc.rights","CC BY-NC 3.0"],["dc.rights","Goescholar"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://goescholar.uni-goettingen.de/licenses"],["dc.title","Hepatic fat accumulation and regulation of FAT/CD36: an effect of hepatic irradiation"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details PMID PMC WOS2013Journal Article [["dc.bibliographiccitation.artnumber","353106"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","BioMed Research International"],["dc.contributor.author","Naz, Naila"],["dc.contributor.author","Ahmad, Shakil"],["dc.contributor.author","Cameron, Silke"],["dc.contributor.author","Moriconi, Federico"],["dc.contributor.author","Rave-Fraenk, Margret"],["dc.contributor.author","Christiansen, Hans"],["dc.contributor.author","Hess, Clemens Friedrich"],["dc.contributor.author","Ramadori, Giuliano"],["dc.contributor.author","Malik, Ihtzaz Ahmed"],["dc.date.accessioned","2018-11-07T09:29:26Z"],["dc.date.available","2018-11-07T09:29:26Z"],["dc.date.issued","2013"],["dc.description.abstract","The current study aimed to investigate radiation-induced regulation of iron proteins including ferritin subunits in rats. Rat livers were selectively irradiated in vivo at 25 Gy. This dose can be used to model radiation effects to the liver without inducing overt radiation-induced liver disease. Sham-irradiated rats served as controls. Isolated hepatocytes were irradiated at 8 Gy. Ferritin light polypeptide (FTL) was detectable in the serum of sham-irradiated rats with an increase after irradiation. Liver irradiation increased hepatic protein expression of both ferritin subunits. A rather early increase (3 h) was observed for hepatic TfR1 and Fpn-1 followed by a decrease at 12 h. The increase in TfR2 persisted over the observed time. Parallel to the elevation of AST levels, a significant increase (24 h) in hepatic iron content was measured. Complete blood count analysis showed a significant decrease in leukocyte number with an early increase in neutrophil granulocytes and a decrease in lymphocytes. In vitro, a significant increase in ferritin subunits at mRNA level was detected after irradiation which was further induced with a combination treatment of irradiation and acute phase cytokine. Irradiation can directly alter the expression of ferritin subunits and this response can be strongly influenced by radiation-induced proinflammatory cytokines. FTL can be used as a serum marker for early phase radiation-induced liver damage."],["dc.description.sponsorship","DFG [MA-5488/2-1]"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1155/2013/353106"],["dc.identifier.isi","000328832300001"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/10734"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/31028"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Hindawi Publishing Corporation"],["dc.relation.issn","2314-6141"],["dc.relation.issn","2314-6133"],["dc.rights","CC BY 3.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0"],["dc.title","Differential Regulation of Ferritin Subunits and Iron Transport Proteins: An Effect of Targeted Hepatic X-Irradiation"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI WOS
