摘要
目的:通过γ-H2AX(H2AX组蛋白异型的磷酸化形式)免疫荧光技术,探讨CT辐射剂量与人外周血单个核细胞γ-H2AX焦点数量之间的相关性。方法64名志愿者肘静脉采集外周血样后,依据CT剂量共设16组(每组4个血样)进行体外CT照射,测定外周血单个核细胞γ-H2AX的表达,并于荧光显微镜下观察计数γ-H2AX焦点。结果体外CT照射后人外周血单个核细胞γ-H2AX焦点数量显著增加,且与CT辐射剂量(DLP)呈线性正相关(R^2=0.9357,P〈0.05)。结论γ-H2AX能够定量检测CT辐射致外周血DNA损伤,可以作为低剂量电离辐射的生物标志物推广应用。
Objective To explore correlation between CT radiation dose and the number of gamma-H2AX (phosphorylated form of H2AX histone variant) foci in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC)by usingγ-H2AX-based immunofluorescent assay. Methods 64 volunteers received phlebotomy for peripheral blood samples from cubital vein. Based on CT dose,a total of 16 groups of blood samples were used for in-vitro CT radiation (n=4 samples each). We measured the expression of PBMC γ-H2AX. Fluorescence microscopy was used for countingγ-H2AX foci. Results After in-vitro CT radiation,there was a significant increase in human PBMCγ-H2AX foci which was in positive linear correlation with the CT dose-length product(DLP)(R^2=0.9357,P〈0.05). Conclusion γ-H2AX quantitatively reflects CT radiation-induced peripheral blood DNA damage,which is justified for widespread use as a biomarker for low-dose ionizing radiation.
