متن کاملPrompt cytomolecular identification of chromosome aberration in irradiated blood cells
Background: understanding the genomic alteration induced by ionizing radiation still remains to be a methodological challenge in genetic field. The energy released from this type of radiation can potentially causes structural and numerical alterations in lymphocytes, which in turn converts them into abnormal tumor cells. Chromosomal abnormalities associated with specific type of hematological m...

Local low-dose (200 rads) gamma-irradiation to both kidneys impaired the excretion of 3H-labeled tumor products and reduced the survival time of mice carrying carcinomas in the ascites form. Daily i.p. injections of cell-free ascites fluid into tumor-free mice for 3 weeks resulted in the death of 25 of 180 irradiated animals, with no deaths among 180 injected unirradiated controls.

Although the majority of the antigens were first recognized in association with blood cells, it is now evident that many of them are also found in other tissues and in body fluids, and specific antigens have been demonstrated in plasma. Antibod...
