Deciphering induced variability, character association and multivariate analysis utilizing gamma rays and ethyl methanesulfonate in bread wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes with differential grain texture
CONCLUSIONS: Assessment of mutagen sensitivity showed that semi-hard wheat varieties were responsive to both mutagens, particularly EMS and generated higher variability and divergence than the soft textured varieties. Hence, gamma rays were proved to be more effective in generating higher variability than ethyl methanesulfonate. A total of 117 putative mutants were identified with desirable agro-morphological attributes. Among these, mutants with higher inter-cluster distance can be used as parents in hybridization programs and serve as important genetic resources in future wheat improvement programs.PMID:38319050 | DOI:10...

Modifications of DAMPs levels in extracellular environment induced by aminolevulinic acid-based photodynamic therapy of esophageal cancer cells
CONCLUSION: Aminolevulinic acid-based photodynamic therapy leads to alterations in local extracellular levels of damage associated molecular patterns, however, comprehensive studies are needed to find whether they can be responsible for macrophage phenotype modifications.PMID:38319688 | DOI:10.1080/09553002.2024.2310002 (Source: International Journal of Radiation Biology)

Intergenerational effects of ionizing radiation: review of recent studies from human data (2018-2021)
CONCLUSION: This review, covering the period 2018-2022, serves as an extension of the previous systematic review conducted by Stephens et al. (2024), which encompassed the years 1988-2018. Together, these two papers offer a comprehensive overview of the available evidence regarding the intergenerational effects of parental pre-conceptional exposure to ionizing radiation. Overall, the findings do not provide strong evidence supporting a significant association between adverse (or other) outcomes in unexposed children and parental preconception radiation exposure.PMID:38319708 | DOI:10.1080/09553002.2024.2309917 (Source: Int...

High variability in short and long-term recovery kinetic of blood cell count and blood chemistry in a partial body irradiation mouse model
CONCLUSIONS: Irradiated animals had significant depletion of white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets up to 10 days post-irradiation. Separation between PBI and WBI were observed at 10- and 20-days post-irradiation at which point PBI animals showed sign of recovery while overall cell count remains depleted in WBI animals up to 30 days post-irradiation. In addition, significant changes were found in parameters indicative of hematopoietic injury including hemoglobin count, hematocrit count and white blood cell population. Significant changes were observed in kidney function with changes to blood urea nitrogen and cal...

Alleviation of radiation combined skin injury in rat model by topical application of ascorbate formulation
CONCLUSION: Topical application of the ascorbate formulation in RCI resulted in a significant improvement in delayed wound healing, leading to accelerated wound closure by mitigating the expression of inflammatory responses.PMID:38306495 | DOI:10.1080/09553002.2024.2310016 (Source: International Journal of Radiation Biology)

The ICRP, MELODI, and ALLIANCE workshop on effects of ionizing radiation exposure in offspring and next generations: a summary of discussions
CONCLUSIONS: Based on the discussions and presentations during the breakout sessions, newer publications, and gaps on the current scientific literature were identified. For instance, there are some ongoing systematic reviews and radiation epidemiology reviews of intrauterine effects. There are newer methods of Monte Carlo simulation for fetal dosimetry, and advances in radiation genetics, epigenetics, and radiobiology studies. While the current impact of hereditary effects on the global detriment was reported as small, the questions surrounding the effects of radiation exposure on offspring and the next generation are cruc...

Co 60 gamma irradiation reduces rooting ability in M 1 V 1 Salvia uliginosa while inducing leaf variegation
CONCLUSIONS: Root quality, survival, and plant height were reduced at higher levels of gamma radiation in the M1V1. However, rooting ability was not impacted in M1V2 selections. Additionally, one mutant was isolated from the 35 Gy treatment with variegated leaves for a mutation rate of 4%. Our research determined a treatment rate that induced a dominant mutation in S. uliginosa while minimizing the deleterious influence of gamma radiation.PMID:38265867 | DOI:10.1080/09553002.2024.2304852 (Source: International Journal of Radiation Biology)

Screening radiation-differentially expressed circular RNAs and establishing dose classification models in the human lymphoblastoid cell line AHH-1
CONCLUSIONS: Ionizing radiation can indeed modulate the circRNA expression profile in the human lymphoblastoid cell line AHH-1. The differentially expressed circRNAs exhibit the potential for rapid and high-throughput dose classification.PMID:38252315 | DOI:10.1080/09553002.2024.2304850 (Source: International Journal of Radiation Biology)
