Down syndrome (DS) individuals are known to be predisposed to develop leukemia and their lymphocytes are highly sensitive to the induction of chromosome aberrations by X-rays. A study was conducted to identify the chromosome breakpoints and to evaluate whether site specificity for chromosome breakag

We have reported that trisomy of chromosome 7 is commonly observed in anchorage-independent clones isolated from X-irradiated golden hamster embryo cells. All 10 clones derived from different irradiated populations showed tumorigenicity when I X lo7 cells were injected s . ~. into nude mice (BALBk,
The potentiating effect of caffeine on X-ray-induced chromosomal aberrations in human blood lymphocytes has been investigated, with special reference to cell cycle stages (G0 and G2). Both quantitative and qualitative differences in the yield of chromosomal aberrations were detected in caffeine-post
