Radiation-induced brain injury is one of the most severe complications, postirradiation, in patients with head and neck tumors, and significantly impacts their quality of life. Currently, there are no effective treatments for radiation-induced brain injury, making the study of radiation-induced molecular mechanisms and the identification of early damage biomarkers critical for the early diagnosis and treatment of such injuries. In this study, twelve male C57 mice aged 6-8 weeks were randomly divided into a control group, a 15 Gy irradiation group, and a 30 Gy irradiation group. Mice were exposed to 6 MV X rays. The control group underwent the same anesthesia procedure as the irradiated groups but did not receive radiation. General health and weight changes were monitored and recorded. Four months postirradiation, mice were subjected to intracranial magnetic resonance imaging [T2-weighted imaging (T2WI)], open field test (OFT), novel object recognition (NOR), followed by a collection of brain tissues for immunofluorescence, SA-β-gal staining, and transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses. Compared to the control group, the 15 Gy and 30 Gy irradiated mice showed reduced activity and weight loss. The irradiated mice exhibited impaired recognition memory in the NOR test and decreased body weight, but radiation had no significant effect on weight or performance in the OFT. Electron microscopy reveals significant demyelination of mouse cortex after irradiation, and MRI T2-weighted imaging demonstrated varying degrees of brain atrophy and ventricular enlargement in irradiated mice compared to the control group. Immunofluorescence staining showed a significant increase in astrocytes and microglia activated after irradiation. SA-β-gal staining revealed significant increases in the numbers of β-gal+ cells in irradiated mice compared to those in untreated control mice. Bioinformatics analysis identified enriched pathways primarily related to lipid metabolism and neuroinflammatory responses; associated metabolites and genes were variously upregulated or downregulated. The findings suggest that radiation-induced brain injury involves complex biological processes, with lipid metabolism disorders and neuroinflammation being the predominant pathological changes observed.

Such investigations are currently relevant due to the limited availability of rhesus macaques, the dominant and preferred macaque subspecies, due to limited supply and their use in other high-priority areas.

This study characterized disease incidence, age of onset, and multimorbidity for 20 common, chronic diseases in 226 irradiated and 51 control rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) from the Wake Forest Non-Human Primate Radiation Late Effects Cohort (RLEC) to identify the excess risk of chronic disease caused by radiation-induced tissue damage.

In addition to the acute impact of early-life irradiation, these animals have been aging postirradiation for up to 15 years (mean 5.2 ± 3.0 years). Lifespan is an average of 5.1 years shorter in irradiated animals and radiation is associated with significantly increased rates of periodontitis, cataracts, testicular atrophy, tumors, diabetes, and brain lesions. While most of these chronic diseases occur in non-irradiated macaques, irradiated animals have significantly earlier age of onset for periodontitis, cataracts, bone loss, being overweight, and arthritis.

While lymphocyte numbers gradually recover, there remain subtle but long-lasting changes to B and T cell populations years after radiation exposure. The degree to which immunological memory is retained after TBI is unknown; however, it is conceivable that vaccine-induced protective immunity is jeopardized. To test this hypothesis, samples were collected from a cohort of rhesus macaques that were vaccinated against measles virus, irradiated, and then allowed to recover from the acute radiation effects for at least a year. Animals received 0 to 7.5 Gy TBI or 10 Gy with 5% bone marrow shielding. Plasma from 109 animals were evaluated for measles-binding antibodies and the ability to neutralize live measles virus. Females exhibited higher measles binding and neutralizing titers, and irradiated animals of both sexes exhibited significant radiation-dose dependent reductions in measles binding IgG and neutralizing titers. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from the vaccinated, irradiated animals were then stimulated in vitro with measles antigens to evaluate cellular responses. No radiation-dose effects on CD8 T cell responses to measles antigens were detected. In contrast, PBMC from vaccinated, irradiated males exhibited radiation dose-dependent reductions in the percentages of CD4 T cells expressing activation-associated markers and cytokines in response to measles antigens. There were also significant dose- or dose/sex-interacting effects on the levels of IP10, MIP1β, and IL-6 present in the antigen-stimulated PBMC cultures. Cells from animals receiving 10 Gy with 5% bone marrow shielding exhibited signs of T-cell anergy. PBMC from females exhibited only weak responses to measles antigen stimulation regardless of radiation exposure.
