In in vito expeiments, we found that a challenge with X-ay iadiation immediately afte chonic iadiation esulted in lowe levels of p53 than those obseved afte the challenge alone in glioblastoma cells (A-172). In addition, the levels of p53-centeed apoptosis and its elated poteins afte the challenge wee stongly coelated with the above-mentioned phenomena in squamous cell cacinoma cells (SAS/neo). In in vivo expeiments, the accumulation of p53 and Bax, and the induction of apoptosis wee obseved dose-dependently in mouse spleen at 12 h afte a challenge with X-ays (3.0 Gy). Howeve, we found significant suppession of p53 and Bax accumulation and the induction of apoptosis 12 h afte challenge iadiation at 3.0 Gy with a high dose-ate following chonic pe-iadiation (1.5 Gy, 0.001 Gy/min). These findings suggest that chonic pe-iadiation suppessed the p53 function though adiation-induced signaling and/o p53 stability. |

Using this method, the esponses of Q tumo cells as well as total tumo (P+Q) cells within muine solid tumos to vaious DNA-damaging teatments wee evaluated. Based on this evaluation, combining with tiapazamine, a well-known bioeductive agent, and/o heat teatment at mild tempeatues was thought to be a pomising modality fo cance theapy in tems of conventional anticance teatment-esistant Q cell contol. Recently, ou method fo detecting the Q-cell esponse using P cell labeling with BdU and the MN fequency assay was also shown to be applicable to an apoptosis detection assay. Meanwhile, ou method fo detecting the intatumo Q-cell esponse was also applicable towad high linea enegy tansfe adiation, including eacto neutons. Thus, using ou method, a new neuton captue compound that has the potential to be distibuted in neuton captue theapy-esistant intatumo Q cell populations is now unde development. |

WF/Fi at cells wee 1.7-times moe adiosensitive than SD at cells, wheeas no diffeence was obseved following low-LET iadiation. A compaison of the cell suvival yielded RBEs of 2.8 and 4.5 fo SD and WF/Fi at cells, espectively. As peviously obseved, with inceasing LET of paticles, the cell-suvival cuves appoximate an exponential function of the dose. On the contay, fo low-LET, the suvival cuves showed a maked initial shoulde.This in vito cellula model, using epithelial cells of the uppe aiway, povides a suitable system to estimate the mechanism involved in adiosensitivity afte high-LET iadiation. The esponses to adiation-induced lethal effects within a same type of cell wee dependent on the iadiation paametes, but might be modulated by the individual sensitivity unde genetic o epigenetic facto contols. |

On the contay, the RTF fo the SD pimay cells inceased with a decease of the LET adiation when the elative suvival was highe than about 40%. Theefoe, the RTF values eached 4–5 fo α-paticles and 10–12 fo γ-ays.The RTF can be elated to the intinsic adiosensitivity of the at epithelial cells. Howeve, the diffeence in the adiation-induced RTF fo SD o WF/Fi pimay cells seems to be due to the development, unde genetic contol, of the initial lesion to the neoplastic state. |

The pecentages of dead cells wee analyzed with a multiwell plate eade to measue the fluoescence intensity of popidium iodide befoe and afte a digitonin teatment. The sensitizing effect of PR-350 on cell killing by high-dose iadiation was confimed by time-couse, dose-dependency, and micoscopic obsevations. In five of seven panceatic cance cell lines in which the numbe of dead cells was detemined 5 days afte 30 Gy iadiation in the pesence of PR-350, the numbe was significantly inceased unde hypoxic conditions, but not unde aeobic conditions. The selective adiosensitive effect of PR-350 on hypoxic cells was also confimed by flow cytomety. The esults indicate that PR-350 can enhance the killing of panceatic cance cells by high-dose iadiation unde hypoxia, which suppots its clinical adiosensitizing effects when administeed duing intaopeative iadiation to panceatic cance. |

Paticula attention was given to any diffeence in the neuton-dose estimates between the two dosimety systems. The study subjects wee 51,532 atomic-bomb suvivos egisteed in a database of the Reseach Institute fo Radiation Biology and Medicine of Hioshima Univesity (RIRBM). The esults obtained by both dosimety systems ae simila: the excess elative isk pe Sv fo leukemia motality and all cances except leukemia is significantly highe compaed to the contol goup. In addition, the diffeence in the excess elative isks between the two systems is not significant. Theefoe, it is indicated that a modification of the neuton-dose estimates would not makedly change the conclusions about the cance motality isk. |

In the pogeny of iadiated males (in the F1 geneation), the adiation damage to DNA was manifested by simila changes, i.e. by lowe polifeation activity and incease in “spontaneus” chomosomal abeation occuence in live egeneation afte patial hepatectomy. Iadiating the pogeny of iadiated males (the total adiation load of the pogeny being 3 Gy + 3 Gy) caused slighte changes in compaed with iadiating the pogeny of non-iadiated contol males (the total adiation load of the pogeny being 0 Gy + 3 Gy), which suggests some kind of adaptive esponse, which was also found in othe expeimental systems and paametes.

In the assay of DNA ladde fomation, DNA fagmentation was obseved following iadiation unde an aeobic o hypoxic condition with o without doanidazole. The popotions of the cells at the sub-G1 peak in a flow cytometic measuement was not vey diffeent among the iadiations at 5 Gy unde the aeobic condition, 15 Gy unde hypoxia, and 10 Gy with 1 mM doanidazole unde hypoxia. The faction of cells with chomatin condensation was found to be significantly inceased with doanidazole up to 3 mM when applied unde hypoxic iadiation, but did not incease even at 10 mM. The sensitize enhancement atio was estimated to be about 1.7 with a concentation of 1 mM. This enhancement atio was not diffeent fom that obseved by assaying cell suvivals.

Neithe the ΔsoxR stain no the SoxS ovepoducing stain led to an enhancement o diminishment of the spontaneous mutation fequency. By DNA sequencing, we detemined 50 spontaneous mutants fom the ΔsoxR stains, and found that 36% wee both base substitutions and IS insetions, 14% fameshifts and 10% deletions. Among the base substitutions, G:C→T:A tansvesions and G:C→A:T tansitions pedominated, followed by A:T→T:A tansvesions. We detemined 54 spontaneous mutants fom the SoxS ovepoducing stains, and found that 37% wee IS insetions, 31% base substitutions, 17% fameshifts, 9% deletions and 6% duplications. Among the base substitutions, G:C→T:A tansvesions dominated, followed by A:T →T:A tansvesions and G:C→A:T tansitions. These esults wee simila to those fom the soxRS+ stains. Thus, it is suggested that the soxRS-egulated genes do not play a significant ole in the defense against spontaneous mutagenesis. |

The elation between the adiation dose and the abeation fequencies (fagments and dicentics) was significantly (p ?? 0.05) lowe fo lymphocytes collected 3 h afte bee dinking than those befoe dinking. Fitting the dose esponse to a linea quadatic model showed that the alpha tem of cabon ions was significantly (p ?? 0.05) deceased by bee dinking. A decease of dicentic fomation was detected as ealy as 0.5 h afte bee dinking, and lasted not shote than 4.5 h. The mitotic index of lymphocytes was highe afte bee dinking than befoe, indicating that a division delay would not be esponsible fo the low abeations induced by bee dinking. An in vito teatment of nomal lymphocytes with 0.1 M ethanol, which coesponded to a concentation of 6-times highe than the maximum ethanol concentation in the blood afte bee dinking, educed the dicentic fomation caused by X-ay iadiation, but not by cabon-ion iadiation. The bee-induced eduction of dicentic fomation was not affected by seum. It is concluded that bee could contain non-ethanol elements that educe the chomosome damage of lymphocytes induced by high-LET adiation. |

In these models, the epai function was simply assumed to be semi-logaithmically linea (i.e., monoexponential), o a fist-ode pocess, which has been expeimentally contadicted. Fowle, howeve, suggested that the epai of adiation damage might be lagely a second-ode pocess athe than a fist-ode one, and pesented data in suppot of this hypothesis. In addition, a second-ode epai function is pefeed to an n-exponential epai function fo the eason that only one paamete is used in the fome instead of 2n-1 paametes fo the latte, although both epai functions show a good fit to the expeimental data. Howeve, accoding to a second-ode epai function, the epai ate depends on the dose, which is incompatible with the expeimental data. We, theefoe, evised the models fo mixed iadiation by Zaide and Rossi and by Suzuki, by substituting a ‘ecipocal-time’ patten of the epai function, which is deived fom the assumption that the epai ate is independent of the dose in a second-ode epai function, fo a fist-ode one in eduction and inteaction factos of the models, although the undelying mechanism fo this assumption cannot be well-explained. The eduction facto, which educes the contibution of the squae of a dose to cell killing in the linea-quadatic model and its deivatives, and the inteaction facto, which also educes the contibution of the inteaction of two o moe doses of diffeent types of adiation, wee fomulated by using a ‘ecipocal-time’ patten of the epai function. Cell suvivals calculated fom the olde and the newly modified models wee compaed in tems of the dose-ate by assuming vaious types of single and mixed iadiation.

The hemocyte densities of the lavae iadiated at diffeent developmental stages showed suppessed incements, and cabon-ion iadiation given to lavae at ealy stages compaed to the late stages had a significant suppessive effect on the hemocyte densities. On unilateal iadiated lavae a hemocyte intemediate incement between those of bilateal iadiated lavae and uniadiated contols was obseved.

The adiopotective effect of chomone having a hydoxyl goup at only the C-7 position was simila to that of the unsubstituted chomone. The most active compound has hydoxyl goups at the C-5 and C-7 positions of the chomone ing; it had a DRF of 1.48. |
