- W2120892886 abstract "Chromosome translocations are a molecular signature of ionizing radiation exposure. Translocations persist significantly longer after exposure than other types of chromosome exchanges such as dicentrics. This persistence makes translocations the preferred aberration type for performing radiation dosimetry under conditions of protracted exposure or when exposure assessments are temporally delayed. Low doses of radiation are inherently difficult to quantify because the frequency of induced events is low and the background level of translocations among unexposed subjects can show considerable variability. Analyses of translocation frequencies can be confounded by several factors, including age of the subject, lifestyle choices such as cigarette smoking, the presence of clones of abnormal cells, and possibly genotypic variability among subjects. No significant effects of gender or race have been observed, but racial differences have not been completely ruled out. Translocation analyses may be complicated by the presence of different types of exchanges, i.e., reciprocal or non-reciprocal, and because translocations sometimes occur as a component of complex exchanges that include other forms of chromosome rearrangements. Rates of radiation exposure, ranging from acute to chronic, are known to influence the accumulation of translocations and may also affect their persistence. The influences on translocation frequencies of low-dose radiation hypersensitivity as well as the bystander effect and the adaptive response remain poorly characterized. Thus, quantifying the relationship between radiation dose and the frequency of translocations in any given subject requires attention to multiple issues. Part of the solution to understanding the in vivo dose–response relationship is to have accurate estimates of the baseline levels of translocations in healthy unexposed subjects, and some work in this area has been accomplished. Long-term cytogenetic follow-up of exposed subjects is needed to characterize translocation persistence, which is especially relevant for risk analyses. More work also needs to be done in the area of quantifying the role of known confounders. Characterizing the role of genotype will be especially important. Improvements in the ability to use translocation frequencies for low-dose biological dosimetry will require scoring very large numbers of cells per subject, which may be accomplished by developing a rapid automated image analysis system. This work would enhance our comprehension of the effects of low-dose radiation exposure and could lead to significant improvements in understanding the relationship between chromosome damage and human health." @default.
