α粒子辐射与基因组不稳定性

Alpha-particles radiation and genomic instability

  • 摘要: α粒子照射后除了引起机体本身的可见的变化如细胞死亡、增殖、癌变,其引起的遗传损伤效应也日益受到人们的注意。越来越多的研究表明:辐射可引起基因组不稳定性的过程,使受照射细胞的应答反应传递到子代细胞中,并表现出一系列遗传学变化。基因组不稳定性的机制目前还不甚清楚,可能与旁效应、自由基、DNA修复缺陷、端粒功能失调以及基因大片段缺失等有关。

     

    Abstract: Alpha-particles can lead to cell death, proliferation and cancerization, but genetic damage is more worth concerning. Many studies have shown that alpha-particles also cause a procedure of genomic instability and the damage can transfer to filial generations. The mechanism is not clear, maybe relate to bystander effect, free radicles, DNA repair-deficiency, telomere function disorder and gene partial or total deletion.
