Frequency of lymphocytes mutant at T-cell receptor (TCR) loci was defined in 42 workers of nuclear chemical plants. In 11 persons mainly exposed to external radiation the mean frequency of TCR-mutant lymphocytes was statistically significant by higher compared with control group of unexposed donors: 9.1 x 10(-4) vs 3.5 x 10(-4) correspondently (p0.01). Frequency of TCR-mutant lymphocytes did not correlate neither the frequency of structural mutations non doses of external exposure. In group of workers exposed to combined external and internal radiation (n = 31) the average frequency of TCR-mutant lymphocytes was higher compared with control level: 8.9 x 10(-4) vs 3.5 x 10(-4) correspondently (p0.01). Correlations between the frequency of TCR-mutant cells and Pu content in organism (r = 0.5; p = 0.005) and between the frequency of chromosome aberration of unstable and stable types (r = 0.5; p = 0.002 and r = 0.6; p = 0.036, correspondently) were set. Comparison of results of analysis of structural and gene mutations allows us to supose that in case of external exposure the observed disturbances can result from genome instability in remote period after irradiation. In case of combined exposure the genetic changes were possibly caused by the constant action of alpha-radiation from Pu containing in the body. |
