Co~(60)-γ射线辐照水稻胚胎不同发育时期植株的诱变效应

目前,在国内外的水稻辐射诱变育种工作中,仍普遍采用辐照种子进行诱变。但一般说来,诱变频率都比较低。近年来不少育种工作者为了提高诱变频率,做了许多理化因素综合处理种子的诱变研究。而有关辐照水稻植株的研究,迄今除在γ圃进行慢性辐照外,在钴室里进行急性辐照的研究还不多。据了解,国内已有不少单位正在进行;在国外,Ken-chi Osone等(1970)曾报道用X射线辐照水稻开花后1—11天植株的M_1效应;Kaneo Adechi等(1974)也报道了用X射线辐照水稻开花当日至7天植株的M_0细胞胚胎学效应。本试验研究的目的是探讨Co~(60)-γ射线辐照水稻胚胎不同发育时期植株的辐射敏感性及适宜剂量,并试图用γ射线辐照水稻植株的方法提高辐射诱变育种的效率。

Chromosome aberration frequencies produced by a 70-MeV proton beam

The effectiveness of a 70-MeV proton beam in the induction of chromosome aberrations was studied. We employed peripheral lymphocytes and analyzed the frequencies of dicentrics and rings after irradiation at doses ranging from 0.1 to 8.0 Gy at various depths within a Lucite phantom. The frequency of chromosome aberrations after irradiation with an unmodulated proton beam at 5 mm showed a dose-response relationship similar to that of 60Co gamma rays. However, irradiation at greater depths with the spread-out Bragg peak induced higher aberration frequencies at doses lower than those with gamma rays. Furthermore, the distribution curve of chromosome aberration frequencies as a function of depth was found to be slightly different from the physically measured depth-dose curve. With the spread-out Bragg peak the biological effects were more marked at greater depths, resulting in a distribution of relative biological effectiveness values. The results obtained from chromosome aberration analysis may not be related directly to those for the relationship between dose and cell killing. Slight differences in values for relative biological effectiveness due to the change of dose and site of proton beam irradiation may not be important for practical proton beam therapy, but may be important in the prevention of late radiation injuries.     

Effect of γ-irradiation on some physiochemical properties of konjac glucomannan

Konjac glucomannan (KGM) was irradiated at 5, 20, 50 and 100 kGy and the effects of γ-irradiation on some physiochemical properties of KGM were studied by using viscosimeter, colorimeter, gel permeation chromatography (GPC), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy, thermal gravimetric (TG) analysis and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). γ-irradiation led to significant degradation of KGM according to the significant reduction of the weight-average molecular weight (M_w). The apparent viscosity of KGM decreased with increasing dose, while the viscosity stability was improved after irradiation. The colour of KGM became more intense brown with increasing dose up to 20 kGy. FT-IR spectra indicated that γ-irradiation introduced no significant changes into the structure but UV spectra showed a distinct absorption peak at about 265 nm, increasing with irradiation dose, which was attributed to the formation of carbonyl groups or double bond. High irradiation dose (100 kGy) caused a small decrease of thermal stability but presented no visible fissures or splitting of KGM granules according to the TG analysis and SEM microphotographs.     

Comparison of three inbred lines of mice by overall and genetic radiosensitivity

The radiosensitivities of three mouse strains (BALB/cLacY, C3H/SnY, and 101/HY) have been compared using the following parameters: survival after irradiation at a dose of 6-7 Gy, chromosome aberration frequency in bone marrow cells after irradiation at a dose of 1.5 Gy, and the change in testis weight and frequency of abnormal sperm heads (ASHs) after irradiation at doses from 0.5 to 4 Gy. Strain BALB/c is the most radiosensitive with respect to the survival and chromosome aberration frequency in the bone marrow but the most resistant with respect to the change in testis weight and the frequency of abnormal sperm heads. Strain 101/HY was the most resistant with respect to survival and chromosome aberration frequency in bone marrow after irradiation but the most radiosensitive with respect to testis damage.

Cytogenetic effect of the pulse reactor BARS-6 continuous or one-time irradiation with ultrahigh dose rate on human lymphocytes

The results of the comparative study of radiation effects of the pulse reactor BARS-6 either in single pulse or continuos irradiation mode on human G0 lymphocytes are presented. Under identical doses the cytogenetic efficiency was observed to be higher for continuous irradiation (1 hour) than for single pulse irradiation with ultrahigh dose rate (0.5-3) x 106 Gy/minutes (pulse duration 65 x 10(-6) s). The difference averaged about 37% on total aberration frequency and 27% on the sum of dicentrics and centric rings. The influence of the dose rate and of the mixed gamma-neutron irradiation on the obtained results is discussed.     

The effectiveness of 20 mev protons at nanosecond pulse lengths in producing chromosome aberrations in human-hamster hybrid cells

Laser accelerated radiotherapy is a potential cancer treatment with proton and carbon-ion beams that is currently under development. Ultra-fast high-energy laser pulses will accelerate ion beams that deliver their dose to a patient in a "pulsed mode" that is expected to differ from conventional irradiation by increasing the dose delivery rate to a tissue voxel by approximately 8 orders of magnitude. In two independently performed experiments at the ion microprobe SNAKE of the 14 MV Munich tandem accelerator, A(L) cells were exposed either to protons with 1-ns pulse durations or to protons applied over 150 ms in continuous irradiation mode. A slightly but consistently lower aberration yield was observed for the pulsed compared to the continuous mode of proton irradiation. This difference was not statistically significant when each aberration type was analyzed separately (P values between 0.61 and 0.85 in experiment I and P values between 0.32 and 0.64 in experiment II). However, excluding the total aberrations, which were not analyzed as independent radiation-induced effects, the mean ratio of the yields of dicentrics, centric rings and excess acentrics scored together showed (with 95% CI) a significant difference of 0.90 (0.81; 0.98) between the pulsed and the continuous irradiation modes. A similar tendency was also determined for the corresponding RBE values relative to 70 kV X rays. Since the different findings for the comparisons of individual chromosome aberration types and combined comparisons could be explained by different sample sizes with the consequence that the individual comparisons had less statistical power to identify a difference, it can be concluded that 20 MeV protons may be slightly less effective in the pulsed mode.     

~(60)Coγ线引起上海真厉螨染色体畸变的研究

An analysis of the cytogenetic effects of gamma and neutron irradiation in a human lymphocyte culture at the G0 and G1 stages of the mitotic cycle (a structural-functional approach)

A study was made of the dose dependence of the chromosome aberration frequency in human lymphocytes exposed to 60Co-gamma radiation and neutrons (mean energy of 0.85 MeV) at the G0 stage and in different periods of the G1 and G1/S stages of the cycle. With gamma irradiation the dose dependence for cells at the G1 and G1/S stages was at a higher level than that for cells at the G0 stage, whereas the opposite picture was observed for cells exposed to neutron radiation. The difference was also noted in the time-response curves where gamma radiation increased and neutrons, on the contrary, decreased the aberration yield in the cells that passed from G0 to G1 stage. The experimental data obtained are attributed to activation of repair system at the G1 stage which is mainly conditioned by chromatin decondensation; the activating, that is, the functional factor influences the aberration induction with gamma irradiation, while the decondensation, that is, the structural factor, with neutron irradiation.     

The cytogenetic effect of bleomycin on human peripheral lymphocytes in vitro and in vivo.

The cytogenetic effect of bleomycin (BLM) in human lymphocytes was studied after exposure to different doses during the G0 and G2 phases. BLM produced a marked specific effect on the cell cycle. The main aberration types after exposure in tg0 were dicentrics and deletions; and after exposure in G2, open chromatid breaks. A linear dose--response was calculated for all these aberration types as well as for the number of aberrant cells. In the G2 experiments, partially and totally pulverized cells also increased linearly with dose. The intercellular distributions of the most frequent aberration types after exposure in G0 and G2--the dicentrics and chromatid breaks, respectively--showed over-dispersion. These results show that the cytogenetic effect of BLM may be compared with that of densely ionizing irradiation. Preliminary results of chromosome analysis of three cancer patients in the course of BLM therapy showed effects similar to those in the G0 experiments.     

Chromosome aberration frequencies and chromosome instability in mice after long-term exposure to low-dose-rate gamma-irradiation

Chronological changes of chromosome aberration rates related to accumulated doses in chronically exposed humans and animals at a low-dose-rate have not been well studied. C3H female specific pathogen-free mice (8 weeks of age) were chronically irradiated. Chromosome aberration rate in mouse splenocytes after long-term exposure to low-dose-rate (LDR) gamma-rays was serially determined by conventional Giemsa method. Incidence of dicentrics and centric rings increased almost linearly up to 8000 mGy following irradiation for about 400 days at a LDR of 20 mGy/day. Clear dose-rate effects were observed in the chromosome aberration frequencies between dose rates of 20 mGy/day and 200 Gy/day. Furthermore, the frequencies of complex aberrations increased as accumulated doses increased in LDR irradiation. This trend was also observed for the incidences of micronuclei and trisomies of chromosomes 5, 13 and 18 in splenocytes, detected by micronucleus assay and metaphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) method, respectively. Incidences of 2-4 micronuclei and trisomy increased in mouse splenocytes after irradiation of 8000 mGy at a LDR of 20 mGy/day. These complex chromosome aberrations and numerical chromosome aberrations seem to be induced indirectly after radiation exposure and thus the results indicate that continuous gamma-ray irradiation for 400 days at LDR of 20 mGy/day induced chromosomal instability in mice. These results are important to evaluate the biological effects of long-term exposure to LDR radiation in humans.
