Two lines of fibroblasts isolated by skin biopsy from patients with homocystinuria were characterized as repair-defective cells. Preirradiation of these cells at low doses (0.1 Gy) and irradiation at high doses demonstrated their decreased ability to form radioadaptive response, in comparison with normal cells. Radioadaptive response did not differ from that of normal cells after chemical treatment with 4NQO and NG used as damaging agents. The method for detection of DNA breaks by means of hydroxyapatite column chromatography of cell lysates and the method of determining sister chromatid exchanges (SCE) were used.

D005720 Gamma Rays Penetrating, high-energy electromagnetic radiation emitted from atomic nuclei during NUCLEAR DECAY. The range of wavelengths of emitted radiation is between 0.1 - 100 pm which overlaps the shorter, more energetic hard X-RAYS wavelengths. The distinction between gamma rays and X-rays is based on their radiation source.

D006712 Homocystinuria Autosomal recessive inborn error of methionine metabolism usually caused by a deficiency of CYSTATHIONINE BETA-SYNTHASE and associated with elevations of homocysteine in plasma and urine. Clinical features include a tall slender habitus, SCOLIOSIS, arachnodactyly, MUSCLE WEAKNESS, genu varus, thin blond hair, malar flush, lens dislocations, an increased incidence of MENTAL RETARDATION, and a tendency to develop fibrosis of arteries, frequently complicated by CEREBROVASCULAR ACCIDENTS and MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION.
