[Comparative frequency of chromosome aberrations in a human lymphocyte culture depending on the mode of neutron irradiation].

The study of the dose dependence of the incidence of chromosome aberrations in a human lymphocyte culture exposed at the G0 stage to pulsed neutrons of 0.7 MeV revealed no significant distinctions in the cytogenetic effect at the pulse frequency of 1 and 5 Hz, but at 100 Hz it was somewhat increased. As to the biological effectiveness, pulsed neutrons of 0.7 MeV occupied an intermediate position between 0.35 and 0.85 MeV static neutrons.

[Effect of charged particles of relativistic energy on the number of chromosome aberrations in human blood lymphocytes. Dose-response relationship and the RBE of protons, deuterons and helium ions].

In experiments with human blood lymphocyte culture exposed to fast protons, deuterons and helium ions the frequency and types of chromosome aberrations have been studied. Fast charged particles of a relativistic energy are shown to have a pronounced harmful effect resulting in a sharply increased formation of exchange chromosome aberrations as compared to that produced by gamma-radiation. The RBE coefficients of the particles under study have been determined: their values vary depending on the type of radiation and the tests used.

[Modification by mesoporphyrin-IX derivatives of Chinese hamster cell damage induced by high energy helium ions and protons].

The damaging effect of high-energy helium ions (4 GeV), protons (9 GeV), and standard radiation was different as studied on Chinese hamster cell cultures (clone 431). A possibility of increasing the survival of cells by the pre- and post-irradiation treatment with a mesoporphyrin-IX derivative was demonstrated. It is suggested that the radioprotective effect of the modifier is associated with the decreased level of aberrant mitoses.
