Meta-analysis of non-tumour doses for radiation-induced cancer on the basis of dose-rateHiroshi Tanooka
Radiation Effects Association, Kaji cho, Chiyoda ku, Tokyo, Japan
Int J Radiat Biol 87:645-52. 2011..Conclusions: The cancer risk of ionising radiation varies 1000-fold depending on the dose-rate of radiation and exposure conditions. This analysis explains the discrepancy of cancer risk between A-bomb survivors and radium dial painters...
Mutant mouse p53 transgene elevates the chemical induction of tumors that respond to gene silencing with siRNAH Tanooka
Biological Effects Research Group, Research Center for Radiation Protection, National Institute of Radiological Sciences, Chiba, Japan
Cancer Gene Ther 17:1-10. 2010..This suppressive effect involved the induction of apoptosis. These results indicate that mp53 activity causes tumors that can be suppressed by subsequent silencing of mp53 in the presence of wild-type p53 alleles...
Summary of entire Japanese thorotrast follow-up study: updated 1998T Mori
National Institute of Radiological Sciences, Anagawa, Inage Ku, Chiba ken, Japan
Radiat Res 152:S84-7. 1999..Rate ratios for liver cancer, liver cirrhosis, leukemia and lung cancer were 35.9, 6.9, 12.5 and 2.0 times higher, respectively, than those for controls...
Homologous recombination between p53 and its pseudogene in a radiation-induced mouse tumorH Tanooka
Genetics Division, National Cancer Center Research Institute, Tokyo, Japan
Cancer Res 58:5649-51. 1998..A novel mechanism of cancer induction is suggested...
Application of a newly developed photoluminescence glass dosimeter for measuring the absorbed dose in individual mice exposed to low-dose rate 137Cs gamma-raysY Hoshi
Bio Science Department, Central Research Institute of Electric Power Industry, Tokyo, Japan
J Radiat Res 41:129-37. 2000..The results clearly demonstrate the superiority of the glass dosimetry regarding simplicity of operation, stability of long-term dose accumulation and good detector uniformity, which allow accurate tissue dosimetry...
1998 results of the first series of follow-up studies on Japanese thorotrast patients and their relationships to an autopsy seriesT Mori
National Institute of Radiological Sciences, 4 9 1 Anagawa, Inage Ku, Chiba, 263 8555, Japan
Radiat Res 152:S72-80. 1999..Results showed 523 liver malignancies per 10(4) person Gy and 150 blood diseases per 10(4) person Gy for Japanese male Thorotrast carriers (wasted dose 10 years)...
Frequent p53 mutation in mouse tumors induced by repeated beta-irradiationA Ootsuyama
Radiobiology Division, National Cancer Center Research Institute, Tokyo, Japan
Mol Carcinog 11:236-42. 1994..Ha-ras mutation was absent in these tumors, indicating that repeated beta-irradiation created a cell-growth stimulating effect similar to that of ras mutation...
New antitumor promoters: (-)-epigallocatechin gallate and sarcophytols A and BH Fujiki
Cancer Prevention Division, National Cancer Center Research Institute, Tokyo, Japan
Basic Life Sci 52:205-12. 1990..EGCG and sarcophytols showed inhibition of tumor development by chemical carcinogenesis. A possibility of developing these compounds as cancer chemopreventives for human beings is discussed...
X chromosome inactivation-mediated cellular mosaicism for the study of the monoclonal origin and recurrence of mouse tumors: a reviewH Tanooka
National Institute of Radiological Sciences, Anagawa, Inage Ku, Chiba 263 8555, Japan
Cytogenet Genome Res 104:320-4. 2004..A series of experimental studies on this topic are reviewed...
p53 Pseudogene dating: identification of the origin of laboratory miceH Tanooka
Genetics Division, National Cancer Center Research Institute, Tsukiji, Chuo Ku, 104 0045, Tokyo, Japan
Gene 270:153-9. 2001..From comparison of the mutation spectrum, the origin of laboratory mice was identified to one of two M. m. domesticus groups...
Induction of thioredoxin in human lymphocytes with low-dose ionizing radiationY Hoshi
Nuclear Energy Systems Department, Central Research Institute of Electric Power Industry, Komae shi, Tokyo, Japan
Biochim Biophys Acta 1359:65-70. 1997..The optimum radiation dose for enhancement of induction of the TRX mRNA was 0.25 Gy. The TRX protein also increased to a peak, a 3-fold increase at maximum, with the same timing as that for TRX mRNA...
Residential randon exposure and lung cancer risk in Misasa, Japan: a case-control studyT Sobue
Cancer Information and Epidemiology Division, National Cancer Center Research Institute, Tokyo, Japan
J Radiat Res 41:81-92. 2000..This study did not find that the risk pattern of lung cancer, possibly associated with residential radon exposure, in Misasa Town differed from patterns observed in other countries...
Heterospecific expression of misrepair-enhancing activity of mucAB in Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilisH Tanooka
Radiobiology Division, National Cancer Center Research Institute, Tokyo, Japan
J Bacteriol 173:2906-14. 1991..coli cleavage was observed in Rec+ cells after treatment with either mitomycin C or an alkylating agent but was not detected in RecA- cells. Common activity of B. subtilis Rec and E. coli RecA in the induction of mutants is suggested...
