Keywords: Single cell gel electrophoresis; Human leukocyte; DNA damage; Bleomycin; Adaptive response
Abstract…. The children come from the Gomel region, one of the areas most heavily radio-contaminated by the Chernobyl fallout. In addition, leukocytes were treated with a challenge dose of bleomycin (BLM, 1.5 μg/ml), to assess the presence of an adaptive response (AR) potentially resulting from chronic exposure to radionuclides. As controls, 13 children living in Pisa (Italy) were enrolled in the study. Children with thyroid cancer show higher (p<0.001) DNA damage than healthy ones.. …

Title: Medical consequences of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant accident: experience of 15-year studies

doi: 10.1016/S0531-5131(01)00616-1
Keywords: Chernobyl disaster; Health status; Long-term monitoring; Incidence; Prevalence
Abstract:… All population health indexes have negative dynamics and are dramatically worse in comparison to the same age of Ukrainian population. The incidence of all cancers in clean-up workers increased. Since 1995, all cancer incidence rates are higher in the population of Ukraine. The thyroid incidence rate in evacuees exceeds the national rate by five to six times. The priority tasks for the achievement of the goals of health protection for the people who suffered as a result of the Chernobyl catastrophe were determined.

Title: Iodine nutrition in the Chernobyl area before and after the nuclear accident
Author: VanMiddlesworth, Lester
Reference: International Congress Series, 1234, p.163-168, May 2002
doi: 10.1016/S0531-5131(01)00605-7
Keywords: Iodine; Goiter; Chernobyl; Thyroid
Abstract: Reports from 1950 to 1960 suggest that goiter was frequent in the Chernobyl area and vigorous efforts were undertaken to distribute iodine supplements. There resulted enthusiastic reports stating that endemic goiter was no longer a problem. During the 1970s, the distribution of iodized salt became undependable and by 1980, goiter incidence was reported to have increased. Four to ten years after the Chernobyl nuclear accident, severe iodine deficiency was unusual but goiter by ultrasound measurement was found in more than 35% of the children. Unusual thyroid cancer appeared and its prevalence continues to increase.

Title: DNA damage evaluated by alkaline single cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE) in children of Chernobyl, 10 years after the disaster

doi: 10.1016/S1383-5718(01)00136-X
Keywords: Single cell gel electrophoresis; Human leukocytes; DNA damage; Bleomycin; Clastogenic factors
Abstract: Using the alkaline single cell gel electrophoresis (Comet) assay, the extent of DNA damage was evaluated in leukocytes of 43 Belarussian children (16 healthy and 27 affected by thyroid cancer). Thirty-nine healthy children from Pisa (Italy) were enrolled in the study as controls. In addition to basal levels of DNA damage, leukocytes were treated in vitro with bleomycin (BLM), a radiomimetic drug, to evaluate a possible adaptive response in different groups of children….
