The goals of this study were to evaluate the effects of ionizing radiation on apical junctions in colonic epithelium and mucosal barrier function in mice in vivo. Adult mice were subjected to total body irradiation (4 Gy) with or without N-acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC) feeding for 5 days before irradiation. At 2–24 h postirradiation, the integrity of colonic epithelial tight junctions (TJ), adherens junctions (AJ), and the actin cytoskeleton was assessed by immunofluorescence microscopy and immunoblot analysis of detergent-insoluble fractions for TJ and AJ proteins. The barrier function was evaluated by measuring vascular-to-luminal flux of fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-inulin in vivo and luminal-to-mucosal flux in vitro. Oxidative stress was evaluated by measuring protein thiol oxidation. Confocal microscopy showed that radiation caused redistribution of occludin, zona occludens-1, claudin-3, E-cadherin, and β-catenin, as well as the actin cytoskeleton as early as 2 h postirradiation, and this effect was sustained for at least 24 h. Feeding NAC before irradiation blocked radiation-induced disruption of TJ, AJ, and the actin cytoskeleton. Radiation increased mucosal permeability to inulin in colon, which was blocked by NAC feeding. The level of reduced-protein thiols in colon was depleted by radiation with a concomitant increase in the level of oxidized-protein thiol. NAC feeding blocked the radiation-induced protein thiol oxidation. These data demonstrate that radiation rapidly disrupts TJ, AJ, and the actin cytoskeleton by an oxidative stress-dependent mechanism that can be prevented by NAC feeding.

Abstract Since it is not known why sickle RBCs tend to undergo microvesiculation, we have investigated their susceptibility to thermal stress. While normal RBCs start to vesiculate at 49.0 +/- 0 degrees C (n = 14), sickle RBCs begin to vesiculate at 47.9 +/- 0.5 degrees C, with a range of 46.5 to 48.5 degrees C (n = 14). This abnormality is reproduced by treating normal RBCs with phenazine methosulfate (PMS), which stimulates the excess intracellular generation of superoxide characteristic of sickle RBCs. For PMS-treated RBCs, there is a strong correlation between membrane protein thiol oxidation and vesiculation temperature (r = .977, P less than .001). The abnormal vesiculation temperature of both unmanipulated sickle RBCs and PMS-treated RBCs is significantly improved by treatment of the RBCs with dithiothreitol. The most dense sickle RBCs are most prone to vesiculation during thermal stress, and they are the subpopulation having the greatest amount of thiol oxidation. We conclude that the tendency of sickle RBCs to vesiculate during thermal stress is further evidence for functional abnormality of the RBC cytoskeleton due to thiol oxidation.
