[The approximation of cell distribution by the number of aberrations in the fractionated gamma-neutron irradiation of a human lymphocyte culture at the presynthesis stage (the G0 and G1 stages of the cycle) based on a theoretical model]. 1997

O V Pozdyshkina

A theoretical model is suggested that allows calculating a yield of cells with a number of aberrations caused by fractionated gamma irradiation using the corresponding data for a separate irradiation. The value of a cytogenetic interaction of damages induced by two fractions of irradiation doses was used as a free parameter of the model. In terms of the model, approximation of experimental functions of the cell distribution in a number of exchange aberrations caused by gamma and/or neutron irradiation was made. At a stage G0, with the 1 h interval between the dose fractions, approximation was successful only for irradiation with equal or isoeffective dose fractions; with the interval of 5 h, it was successful for all types of irradiation except for two highest doses of fractionated neutron and gamma/neutron irradiation. At a stage G1, approximation was satisfactory almost for all types of fractionated gamma/neutron irradiation irrespective of the interval between the dose fractions and of a dose of fractionated gamma irradiation with the interval 1 h. For the fractionated neutron and neutron/gamma irradiation at a stage G1, approximation of experimental distributions was unsatisfactory in all the cases.

D008214 Lymphocytes White blood cells formed in the body's lymphoid tissue. The nucleus is round or ovoid with coarse, irregularly clumped chromatin while the cytoplasm is typically pale blue with azurophilic (if any) granules.
