GermanyIntroduction: Auger electron emitters (AEE) have a
high potential for targeted tumour therapy due to their
strongly localised energy deposition. DNA-associated AEE
induce cellular damage leading to high-LET-type cell
survival curves and possess enhanced relative biological
effectiveness. They are presumed to cause complex DNA
lesions as well. To elucidate the genotoxic potential of
DNA-associated AEE, chromosomal/chromatid aberrations were
analyzed in Iodine-125-deoxyuridine (I-125-UdR) exposed
human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) and in human
telomerase-immortalized retinal pigment epithelial cells
(hTERT-RPE1).Methods: For each donor, PBL were incubated
with I-125-UdR for 5 h (2.5 and 5 kBq/ml). The culture was
fixed for aberrations at 72 h post-stimulation. hTERT-RPE1
cells were exposed to I-125-UdR activities ranging from 0.5
– 4 kBq/ml. The cells were harvested for aberrations at 26
h after initiation of the culture. All slides were stained
with 10 $\%$ Giemsa. For each dose point 100 metaphases were
analysed. For both PBL and hTERT-RPE1 cells, cell cycle
analysis using EdU Flow Cytometry Assay Kits (Invitrogen)
was performed.Results: Our preliminary data show that
I-125-UdR primarily induce chromatid-type aberrations. An
enhanced level of aberrations was observed at already 100
accumulated decays per cell, whereof one decay per cell per
20 min was calculated. The cell cycle of both PBL and
hTERT-RPE1 cell line are delayed due to incorporation of
I-125-UdR in the DNA, when compared to control cells.
Conclusions: I-125-UdR posses a strong genotoxic capacity in
PBL and hTERT-RPE1 cells even at very low numbers of
accumulated decays. Supported by the Bundesministerium für
