Definition
• The relative susceptibility of the cell to the radiation effect is referred as radiosensitivity
![Page 3: Radio Sensitivity](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061108/545053cfb1af9f05098b4c0a/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Factors affecting Cellular Radiosensitivity
• Conditional Radiosensitivity• Inherent Radiosensitivity

Inherent Factors
• 1. Law of Bergonie and Tribondeau states that radiosensitivity is greatest for those cells that a. Have a high mitotic rate
b. Have a long mitotic future c. are undifferentiated

• 2. Law of Ancel & Vitemberger • It states the inherent susceptibility of any cell
to damage by radiation is the same, but the time of appearance of radiation-induced damaged differs among different types of cells
• The appearance of radiation damage depend a. Biologic Stress to the cell b. the condition to which the cell is exposed
pre and post irradiation.
![Page 14: Radio Sensitivity](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061108/545053cfb1af9f05098b4c0a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• 3. Sparrow Hypothesis the radio sensitivity is directly proportional to
the interface chromosomal volume.

LD (50/30) Effect
• The radiation dose required to kill 50% of the cell population within 30 days of irradiation
![Page 17: Radio Sensitivity](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061108/545053cfb1af9f05098b4c0a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
LD(50/30) effect on skin
![Page 18: Radio Sensitivity](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061108/545053cfb1af9f05098b4c0a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
LD (50/30) on Eye and Blood forming organs
• Refer class notes
![Page 19: Radio Sensitivity](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061108/545053cfb1af9f05098b4c0a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
LD (50/30) effect on Embryo
• Exposure of 1-2 Gy of X ray or Gamma ray can produce pre natal or neo natal death, growth disturbances, organ malformation and impairment of adult physiology
• The effects of radiation on the fetus depend on two factors: dose and stage of development at the time of exposure.
![Page 20: Radio Sensitivity](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061108/545053cfb1af9f05098b4c0a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• Between conception & birth the fetus passes thru 3 basic stages of dev’t
1. Pre-implantation (day 1 to 10)
2. Organogenesis (day 11 to 42)
3. Growth Stage (day 43 to birth)
![Page 21: Radio Sensitivity](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061108/545053cfb1af9f05098b4c0a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
• Pre-implantation period: Excess of 250 mGy radiation
exposure induces prenatal death.
• Organogenesis period: Radiation exposure induces
neo-natal death and will result in retardation in growth ( poor dev’p of brain, eye, skeleton), mainly embryonic malformation
• Fetal or Growth period: Radiation exposure can induce
organ growth retardation, reduced IQ or behavioural alteration in life (later)
• Radiation dose below 1 Gy produces reduction in brain size (microcephalous) & hence mental retardation
• The period of 3 to 15 week of gestation is more radiation sensitive ( eq: radiation effect include small head in children)
• the diagnostic exposure of women during pregancy might result in Leukemia(blood cancer) and other cancer in their children at younger age (15 years)
![Page 22: Radio Sensitivity](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061108/545053cfb1af9f05098b4c0a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
LD 50/30 on Endocrinal Glands
• Reproductive System- Gonads ( testis in male
and Ovaries in female)- Cells of it are highly
radiosensitive- Dose(6 Gy) permanently
sterilizing males. (sterility occur after a few month)
- Lower doses can cause sterility afer several months of irradiation (temporary effect)
- Radiation destroys both ovum & maturing follicles- results in reduction of hormone production
![Page 23: Radio Sensitivity](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061108/545053cfb1af9f05098b4c0a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
• Radiation dose & age – important factors in radiation effects
• Thyroid Gland- result in hypothyroidism
(‘decrease in production of thyroxine’) which cause a lower metabolic rate.
- Symptoms: feeling tired, restless, problem in concentrating, feeling sad/ depressed,Mood changes, Constipation, Feeling cold all the time, puffiness around the eyes.
• Pancreas- Radiation effect: Diabetic
mellitus
• Hypothalamus & Pituitary Gland
- Hypothalamus appear to be more radio sensitive than the pituitary gland and may be damaged by lower radiation doses (< 40 Gy)
- Higher doses: damage both hypothalamus & pituitary gland.
- Radiation Effects: Hypopituitarism, Central Hypothyroidism, Central Adrenal Insufficiency
![Page 24: Radio Sensitivity](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061108/545053cfb1af9f05098b4c0a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
• Adrenal Gland- Radiation effect: Addison’s
disease (Adrenal insufficiency)
- Deficiency of cortisol.- It is characterised by muscle
weakness, reduced blood sugar, nausea, loss of appetite, weight loss, low B.P.
• Pineal Gland- Results in change in
melatonin level which causes several disorder like cancer, sexual dysfunction & hypertension
• Thymus Gland- Radiation effect in
thymus Results in disease which are caused by a damaged and a weak immune system
![Page 25: Radio Sensitivity](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061108/545053cfb1af9f05098b4c0a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Linear No-Threshold Risk Model
• Linear- An increase in dose results in a proportional increase in risk
• No- Threshold: Any dose, no matter how small, produces some risk
![Page 26: Radio Sensitivity](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061108/545053cfb1af9f05098b4c0a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Factors affecting Frequency of Radiation induced Mutation
• Radiation Dose and Fractionation- The mutation frequency is linearly dependent
on the dose- The mutation frequency (MF) is lower, if the
dose is given in fractions ( due to enzymatic DNA repair mechanism)
• Time interval b/w irradiation & conception- MF decreases as time interval increases
![Page 27: Radio Sensitivity](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061108/545053cfb1af9f05098b4c0a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Cond
• Age & Sex- The MF is higher for young patients i.e. the MF
decreases as the age increases- MF is lower for female compared to males
![Page 28: Radio Sensitivity](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061108/545053cfb1af9f05098b4c0a/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Gene Controlled Hereditary Diseases
• The abnormality that is carried on for the future generation – Hereditary Disease
• If the abnormality is due to the DNA alteration (change in gene sequence) : Gene controlled Hereditary Disease.
• Basic types of Genetic Disorder: 1. Single Gene or Mendelian Disorder 2. Multifactorial or Complex Disorder
![Page 29: Radio Sensitivity](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061108/545053cfb1af9f05098b4c0a/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Cont 3.Mitochondrial Disorder 4. Chromosomal Disorder 5. Epigenetic Disorder : the disorder is in the gene
activity rather than the DNA structure Inheritance Pattern 1.Recessive : Both copies of the genes are
defective. Eg- Sickle cell Anaemia 2. Dominant : Only one copy of the gene is
defective. Eg- Marfan syndrome 3. X-linked disease: the recessive X type
chromosome are affected Eg- Haemophilia
