- W2039456492 abstract "The principal aspects of the 'doubling-dose method' currently used by the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR) and the Committee on the Biological Effects of Ionizing Radiation (BEIR) of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, for the evaluation of genetic radiation hazards in man are briefly reviewed. With this method, which is primarily applicable to autosomal dominant and X-linked disorders, the expected increase in risk from radiation is expressed as a fraction of the current prevalence of these disorders, and thus in relation to an understandable frame of reference. Since the doubling dose is estimated as a ratio of spontaneous to induction rates of mutations, its magnitude is susceptible to changes in either the numerator (spontaneous rate) or the denominator (induction rate). Studies during the past 20 years or so with a number of experimental systems have demonstrated the existence of mobile DNA sequences in the genome and their causal role in the origin of spontaneous mutations, although the proportion of the latter among all spontaneous mutations is not known for any species. If a major proportion of spontaneous mutations in man is mediated by these mobile DNA sequences, and if their mobility is unaltered by radiation exposures, the calculation of the doubling dose in the manner mentioned above, and its use in risk evaluations becomes questionable. However, considerations based on the organization of the human genome would suggest that it is unlikely that a major fraction of spontaneous mutations that lead to disease states in man is due to mobile genetic elements. Consequently, the use of the doubling-dose method for the evaluation of genetic radiation hazards in man would appear to be valid at the present time." @default.
