Abstract

Medical workers representing the group is the most consistently are exposed to low doses of ionizing radiation, prolonged low-level ionizing radiation can induce chromosomal aberrations (CAs). This study would evaluate the cytogenetic effect using the CAs based on dicentric, and cytokinesis-blocked micronucleus (CBMN) assay on hospital workers. The exposed group dividedto Interventional and Diagnostic groups then compared to non exposed group. The accumulated absorbed doses calculated for the radiation workers were below 5mSv. Blood samples were obtained from 29 samples of medical workers , and 15 samples of control. The Study showed that the frequency of dicentric chromosomes both in exposed and control were not found. In case of micronuclei, the mean frequencies were observed in exposed group that was (19 6.22) and (16.25 6.04) respectively and the control group was (10.47.79). Frequency MN/1000 cell in the lymphocytes both in the two exposed group was relatively higher compared to control group. However the MN frequencies in all sample group was still in normal range . In this study chronic low radiation dose exposure in the hospital had no significant effect on chromosome aberration nor micronuclei. The benefit of the study is to enrich the potential usefulness of cytogenetic assay providing safety index in medical surveillance programs. The results suggest that education and retraining of staff concerning radiation safety guidelines need to be done to maintain the safety aspects of radiation.

Abstract

Individual responses to radiotherapy are often observed whether or not regimes with identical treatments were applied. Patient-related factors, the therapeutic process, and therefore the intrinsic factors of individual radiosensitivity are considered to be causing the variability of side effects. A preliminary evaluation was done on cytogenetic biomarkers found in cancer patients. The purpose of this present study was to assess the individual response of patients with cancers after radiation therapy. The sample obtained from 11 patients with different types of cancer as a case group and 12 people as a control group from a healthy volunteer. Blood samples were stimulated by an in vitro culture using phytohemagglutinin, and the cultures were assessed by using the Dicentric and Cytokinesis- Block Micronucleus (CBMN-) assay. These two methods were compared. The results showed that the overall dicentric chromosome and micronuclei in binucleate cells (MN/BNC) have a significantly higher frequency in the breast, head, and neck compared to extremity cancer. A high frequency of micronuclei in lymphocyte patients was seen after radiotherapy treatment but relatively not much higher compared to the range of micronuclei backgrounds in healthy people The CBMN is the most effective assay for evaluation of the cytogenetic studies in cancer patients because it is more radiosensitive to study individual responses. By evaluating the effects of radiotherapy based on DNA damage, the severity of radiation exposure can be studied. This study can be useful for researchers and related stakeholders in the application of radiotherapy.
