چکیده

background: chromosomal alterations play an important role in carcinogenesis. enhanced chromosomal radiosensitivity is shown for many cancer predisposition conditions including breast cancer. in this study chromosomal radiosensitivity and the frequency of background sister chromnatid exchanges (sce) in lymphocytes of normal individuals and breast cancer patients was compared. materials and methods: g2 assay was performed on peripheral blood lymphocytes obtained from 60 breast cancer patients and 50 normal control. blood culture was initiated and cells were irradiated with 1 gy gammarays 4 h prior to harvesting. after metaphase preparations and slide making, chromatid aberrations were scored. for sce studies, blood samples from 30 breast cancer patients and 30 normal control were studied. 24 hours after culture initiation, 5- bromodeoxy uridine (brdu) was added and cells were harvested 48 hours after addition of brdu. slides were stained in hoechst 33258 and exposed to uva source, then stained in giemsa. results: results indicated that the frequency of radiation induced chromatid breaks was significantly higher in breast cancer patients compared to normal control (p<0.01). from radiosensitivity point of view, 12% of normal control and 47% of breast cancer patients showed elevated chromatid radiosensitivity. frequency of background sce was significantly higher in lymphocytes of breast cancer patients compared to lymphocytes of control (p<0.05). conclusion: elevated chromosomal radiosensitivity and higher frequency of sce in lymphocytes of breast cancer patients might be indicative of genomic instability of these cells. increased radiosensitivity could also be due to defects in dna repair genes involved in breast cancer formation. iran. j. radiat. res., 2011 9(3): 167-174

Radiosensitizing effects of melatonin on radiation induced chromosomal aberration in G2-lymphocytes of breast cancer patients

Background: Radiotherapy is regarded as a standard treatment modality in breast cancer (BC). Radiation causes cellular damage both in cancer and normal cells by inducing DNA-damage and chromosomal aberrations (CA). Different agents were used for ameliorating effects of radiation, mainly antioxidants such as melatonin. Melatonin shows oncostatic properties on human BC. The aim of this study was ...

Novel responses of peripheral lymphocytes of cancer patients to chemical induction of sister chromatid exchanges.

Sensitivities to sister chromatid exchange (SCE) induction by chemicals of peripheral lymphocytes from 26 cancer patients were estimated under conditions identical to those for healthy humans which had been reported (Cancer Res., 43: 439-442, 1983). The sensitive individual was defined as one whose cells give a mean induced SCE frequency more than 2 standard deviation units above the population...
