• The acute lethality of total-body irradiation (TBI) involves damage to multiple organs, including bone marrow and intestine. Ionizing radiation mitigators that are effective when delivered 24 h or later after TBI include the anti-apoptotic drug, JP4-039 and the anti-necroptotic drug, necrostatin-1. In contrast to effective delivery of JP4-039 at 24 h after TBI, necrostatin-1 is most effective when delivery is delayed until 48 h, a time that correlates with the elevation of necroptosis-inducing inflammatory cytokines and necroptosis-induced serine phosphorylation of receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase-3 (RIP3) in tissues. The goal of this work was to determine whether administration of JP4-039 influenced the optimal delivery time for necrostatin-1. We measured daily levels of 33 proteins in plasma compared to intestine and bone marrow of C57BL/6NTac female mice over a 7-day time period after 9.25 Gy TBI (LD ). Protein responses to TBI in plasma were different from those measured in intestine or bone marrow. In mice that were given JP4-039 at 24 h after TBI, we delayed necrostatin-1 delivery for 72 h after TBI based on measured delay in RIP-3 kinase elevation in marrow and intestine. Sequential delivery of these two radiation mitigator drugs significantly increased survival compared to single drug administration.
