Cover Story: We examined sex differences in prenatal low-dose rate gamma irradiation effects in B6C3F1 mice. Irradiated females showed no hippocampal cellular changes but had reduced lung/left-kidney weights and increased mesenteric, retroperitoneal, and perigonadal fat. Hippocampal mRNAs (H2bc24, Fos, Cd74, Tent5a, etc.) were upregulated; blood mRNAs (Inpp5j, Gdf3) were downregulated. Ttn and Slc43a3 differed in both tissues. Sex comparisons revealed that blood had four mRNAs (e.g., Scd1, Cd59b, Vmn1r58, and Gm42427) and one miRNA (mmu-miR-8112) altered; the hippocampus had twelve mRNAs and two miRNAs differentially expressed. qRT-PCR confirmed hippocampal H2bc24, Fos, Cd74, and Tent5a upregulation in females. These molecular changes may drive irradiation-induced fat deposition, underscoring critical sex-specific biological responses. View this paper
