Biologic responses to low doses of ionizing radiation: adaptive response versus bystander effect.
TO THE EDITOR: In their Newsline commentary, Drs. Feinendegen and Pollycove call an important issue to the attention of readers of The Journal of Nuclear Medicine (1). In a discussion of the dual action of ionizing radiation, they posit a competition at low doses between the direct induction of radiation damage and the activation of damage control (adaptive response, hormesis), such that below ...
متن کاملThe Evaluation of Melatonin Effect Against The Early Effect of Ionizing Radiation Induced Lung Injury
Background & Objective: Lung is a radiosensitive organ. Patients who are undergoing radiation therapy in their chest are subjected to radiation pneumonitis in the early phase and pulmonary fibrosis in the late one. Melatonin scavenges free radicals directly and acts as an indirect antioxidant through the activation of major antioxidant enzymes as well. The aim of the study thus is to investiga...
متن کاملEffect of Exposure to Ionizing Radiation on Biomarker of Oxidative Damage of DNA
Introduction: one of the most important complications of exposure to ionizing radiation is emergence of cancer tumors, which happens as a result of oxidative DNA. Therefore, the present study was conducted, aimed to measuring 8-DIHYDROxy- 2’- DEOXYGUANOSINE (8-OHdG) level in radiographers’ urine as oxidative damage biomarker, as well as comparing this biomarker with cumulative effective doses....
