Abstract:
Objective To explore the influence of long-term low-dose ionizing radiation on 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine(8-OHdG) level in the serum of radiation workers in hospitals.Methods 307 age-and sex-matched hospital radiation workers were recruited by stratified random sampling method.After deleting the subjects without dosage information,230 individuals were divided into four groups according to their job title [including diagnostic radiology (n =75),radiotherapy (n =60),nuclear medicine (n =41) and interventional radiology (n =54)].Serum 8-OHdG level was measured by ELISA assay.Results According to the statistical analysis,there was significant difference in the serum 8-OHdG level among four groups (F =9.071,P < 0.05),and the content of serum 8-OHdG was significantly higher in the interventional radiology group than that in the groups of diagnostic radiology,radiotherapy and nuclear medicine (t =-4.473,-3.011,-2.189,P < 0.05).There were significant differences in serum 8-OHdG level among different dose groups and working period groups(F =7.659,3.058,P < 0.05).The serum 8-OHdG levels significantly increased along with exposure dose and working period (r =0.300,0.142,P < 0.05).Conclusions Serum 8-OHdG may be a potential biomarker of oxidative DNA damage in radiation workers exposed to low-dose ionizing radiation.
