Abstract:The ovaries of Kun-Ming strain mice (3 weeks) were irradiated with different doses of (12)C6+ ion or (60)Co gamma-ray. Chromosomal aberrations were analyzed in metaphase II oocytes at 7 weeks after irradiation. The relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of (12)C6+ ion was calculated with respect to 60Co gamma-ray for the induction of chromosomal aberrations. The (12)C6+ ion and 60Co gamma-ray dose-response relationships for chromosomal aberrations were plotted by linear quadratic models. The data showed that there was a dose-related increase in frequency of chromosomal aberrations in all the treated groups compared to controls. The RBE values for (12)C6+ ions relative to 60Co gamma-rays were 2.49, 2.29, 1.57, 1.42 or 1.32 for the doses of 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0 or 6.0 Gy, respectively. Moreover, a different distribution of the various types of aberrations has been found for (12)C6+ ion and 60Co gamma-ray irradiations. The dose-response relationships for (12)C6+ ion and 60Co gamma-ray exhibited positive correlations. The results from the present study may be helpful for assessing genetic damage following exposure of immature oocytes to ionizing radiation.
