Research Abstract |
Down syndrome and Recklinghausen disease are hereditary disorders characterized by congenital malformations, and a high risk of malignancy. Cultured lymphocytes and fibroblasts from the patients with these disorders showed more chromosomal sensitivity after irradiation than do normal control subjects. The chromosomal sensitivity to irradiation of X-ray and cell-cycle kinetics in cells form patients with Recklinghausen disease and Down syndrome. Three cell-lines driven from the pathological region of nerve-fiber of Recklinghausen disease (6 cases) were cultured and DNA repair and unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) after irradiation were studied. Unscheduled DNA synthesis after irradiation between I and 4 Gy was studied, but UDS was observed in all cell-lines from neither Recklinghausen disease nor normal controls. The irradiation-study higher than 10 Gy (20, 30, 40, 100Gy) were done, but it was very bad for all cell-lines to grow.
