Effect of low doses of low-let radiation on the innate anti-tumor reactions in radioresistant and radiosensitive mice.
BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice differ in their Th1/Th2 lymphocyte and M1/M2 macrophage phenotypes, radiosensitivity, and post-irradiation tumor incidence. In this study we evaluated the effects of repeated low-level exposures to X-rays on the development of artificial tumor colonies in the lungs of animals from the two strains and cytotoxic activities of natural killer (NK) cells and macrophages obtai...
متن کاملHigh-sensitivity radiation detector for low dose level radiological applications
Radiation dosimetry by Fricke gel was largely used, generally focused and optimized for radiotherapy applications therefore involving relative high dose levels. Fricke gel dosimetry has several advantages, like dose rate and LET almost independence, 3D mapping, among other. This work presents a novel Fricke gel dosimeter optimized for low dose levels. Several chemical composition were studied v...
متن کاملRadiation Hormesis in Humans Exposed to Low Level Ionizing Radiation
Through various researches and investigations it has been established that high doses of ionizing radiation are harmful to health. There is substantial controversy regarding the effects of low doses of ionizing radiation despite the large amount of work carried out (both laboratory and epidemiological). According to the linear no-threshold (LNT) hypothesis, any amount, however small, of radiati...
متن کاملRetinoblastoma and low level radiation.
The village of Seascale, near the Sellafield nuclear reprocessing plant, is best known in epidemiological circles for its longstanding high incidence ofmalignant disease in young people,' which has recently been confirmed as having persisted during 1984-90.2 Throughout, the excess has been largely accounted for by leukaemia and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. No cases of retinoblastoma have been found ...
متن کاملThe Impact of Low-level Exposure to Radiation in Natural Ecosystems of Najaf and Dhi Qar Cities, Iraq
Introduction: This study investigated the exposure rates of background radiations in selected locations of Najaf and Dhi Qar cities, Iraq. Materials and Methods: Exposure rates were quantified using a portable Geiger–Müller meter. Frequent readings of gamma dose rates were recorded (82 and 101 nGy h-1). Results: The lowest absorbed doserate was found to be 43.5±17.4 nGyh-1 in Najaf (outdoor e...
