| Abstract:: |
| Objective To investigate the dose-response of micronuclei (MN) frequency in the lymphocytes irradiated with or without combination of α-particles and γ-rays. Methods Human lymphoblast cells HMy2.CIR were irradiated with 0-1 Gy of α-particles, 0-5 Gy of γ-rays, and 0.025-0.5 Gy of α-particles followed by different doses of γ-rays, respectively. The micronuclei(MN) in the irradiated cells were measured with the cytokinesis block technique, and the dose-responses of MN were established under different irradiation conditions. Results For γ-ray irradiation, the dose-response of MN was well-fit by the linear-quadratic model with an equation Y=c+αD+βD2.For α-particle irradiation, the MN induction increased linearly with the dose less than 0.250 Gy. But when the dose of α-particles increased continually, the dose-response curve bended and could be well fit with the BaD model Y=c+αD+σ[1-exp(-δD)]exp(-βD) where radiation-induced bystander effect (RIBE) was indicated. For the combined exposure, the dose-response of MN was similar to that of γ-irradiation when the dose of α-particles was lower than 0.1 Gy, but it was similar to that of α-irradiation when the dose of α-particles was higher. When the dose of α-particles was 0.2 and 0.5 Gy, MN induced by the mixed radiation were significantly higher than the sum of corresponding irradiation alone (t=5.22-11.86, P<0.05). Conclusions The radiation damage of α-particles differs from that of γ-rays, where RIBE may be involved. The combination irradiation of α-particles and γ-rays has a synergistic effect on radiation damage of lymphoblast cells. |
