[Formation and repair of DNA breaks in bone marrow cells of the irradiated rat]. 1984

V A Tronov, and A V Provotorov, and A V Rad'ko, and L B Shagalov

The method of sedimentation was used to study the induction and repair of DNA breaks in irradiated rat bone marrow cells. It was shown that a total population of bone marrow cells did not differ from that of cultured L5178Y cells with regard to the yield of single-strand breaks and the ratio between double- and single-strand breaks. The absence of double-strand breaks and incomplete repair of single-strand breaks (70%) were noted with doses ranging from 20 to 100 Gy. The quantity of unrepaired single-strand breaks did not correlate with that of double-strand breaks, induced by the same radiation doses. This is indicative of the capacity of bone marrow cells for repair in a short-term culture.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D001853 Bone Marrow The soft tissue filling the cavities of bones. Bone marrow exists in two types, yellow and red. Yellow marrow is found in the large cavities of large bones and consists mostly of fat cells and a few primitive blood cells. Red marrow is a hematopoietic tissue and is the site of production of erythrocytes and granular leukocytes. Bone marrow is made up of a framework of connective tissue containing branching fibers with the frame being filled with marrow cells.

D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D004260 DNA Repair The removal of DNA LESIONS and/or restoration of intact DNA strands without BASE PAIR MISMATCHES, intrastrand or interstrand crosslinks, or discontinuities in the DNA sugar-phosphate backbones. DNA Damage Response

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
