abstract = {It is known that about $5–10\%$ of cancer patients show
severe clinical side effects during and after radiotherapy
due to enhanced sensitivity to ionizing radiation.
Identification of those radiosensitive individuals by a
reliable in vitro assay before onset of treatment would have
a great impact on successful radiotherapy. We compared the
radiosensitivity of the chromosomes 2, 11 and 17 in prostate
cancer patients with and without severe side effects after
radiotherapy and in age-matched healthy donors. Each cohort
consisted of at least 10 donors. Peripheral blood
lymphocytes were irradiated ex vivo with 0.5, 1 und 2 Gy
(137Cs γ rays). We investigated the radiosensitivity of the
chromosomes 2, 11 and 17 by scoring of 100 FISH painted
metaphases for each dose point and donor group. Statistical
analyses were performed by nonparametric tests as
Mann-Whitney test and Kruskal-Wallis ANOVA, paired Wilcoxon
rank test, χ2 goodness-of-fit test and Spearman rank-order
correlation at a significance level of P < 0.05. Analysis of
the overall aberration yield revealed no significant
differences between any donor groups. The translocation
frequencies of the chromosomes 2, 11 and 17 coincided with
their relative size. Thus, none of the chromosomes analyzed
were more or less radiosensitive with respect to the genomic
translocation frequency. Additionally, neither of the
chromosomes showed enhanced or diminished radiosensitivity
in one of the donor groups. Furthermore, variance analyses
revealed that the distribution pattern of the aberrations
per donor did not differ in each donor group even after
exposure to 2 Gy. Prostate cancer patients with and without
side effects cannot be distinguished from healthy donors
based on aberration yield after irradiation with γ rays.},
