The aim was to define the dose--response curve for high-energy proton-induced neoplastic transformation in vitro. The HeLa x skin fibroblast human hybrid cell assay was used to determine the frequency of neoplastic transformation following doses of 232 MeV protons (mean linear energy transfer, LET=0.44 keV microm(-1)) in the range 5-600 mGy. Proton irradiations were carried out at the Loma Linda University Proton Treatment Facility, CA, USA. The data indicate no evidence for induction of transformation below a dose of 100 mGy. At doses of 5 and 50 mGy, there is evidence for a possible suppression of transformation frequencies below that for spontaneous transformation. The shape of the dose--response curve for high-energy proton-induced transformation of the human hybrid cell line CGL1 does not follow a linear no-threshold model and shows evidence for a threshold as well as for possible suppression of transformation at doses (04/2005)

"The Effects of Low-Dose, High-LET Radiation Exposure on Three Models of Behavior in C57Bl/6 Mice. ." Radiation Research 162. (2004): 148-156. To investigate the behavioral consequences of exposure to whole-body irradiation such as might occur for astronauts during space flight, female C57BL/6 mice were exposed to 0, 0.1, 0.5 or 2 Gy accelerated iron ions (56Fe, Z = 26, beta = 0.9, LET = 148.2 keV/microm) of 1 GeV per nucleon using the Alternating Gradient Synchrotron at the Brookhaven National Laboratory. Animal testing began 2 weeks after exposure and continued for 8 weeks. Under these conditions, there were few significant effects of radiation on open-field, rotorod or acoustic startle activities at any of the times examined. The lack of radiation effects in these behavioral models appears to offer reassurance to NASA mission designers. These results suggest that there may be negligible effects of HZE radiation on many behaviors during a 2-8-week period immediately after radiation. (08/2004)
