Abstract：
:We previously described an enhanced sensitivity for cell killing and gamma-H2AX focus induction after both high-dose-rate and continuous low-dose-rate gamma irradiation in 14 primary fibroblast strains derived from hereditary-type retinoblastoma family members (both affected RB1(+/-) probands and unaffected RB1(+/+) parents). Here we present G(2)-phase chromosomal radiosensitivity assay data for primary fibroblasts derived from these RB family members and five Coriell cell bank controls (four apparently normal individuals and one bilateral RB patient). The RB family members and two normal Coriell strains had significantly higher ( approximately 1.5-fold, P < 0.05) chromatid-type aberration frequencies in the first postirradiation mitosis after doses of 50 cGy and 1 Gy of (137)Cs gamma radiation compared to the remaining Coriell strains. The induction of chromatid-type aberrations by high-dose-rate G(2)-phase gamma irradiation is significantly correlated to the proliferative ability of these cells exposed to continuous low-dose-rate gamma irradiation (reported in Wilson et al., Radiat. Res. 169, 483-494, 2008). Our results suggest that these moderately radiosensitive individuals may harbor hypomorphic genetic variants in genomic maintenance and/or DNA repair genes or may carry epigenetic changes involving genes that more broadly modulate such systems, including G(2)-phase-specific DNA damage responses.
