1. Role of oxidative stress response in radiosensitivity
Sammanfattning : The quality of the ionizing radiation (IR) can be described in terms of its nature, photons or particles, and their corresponding energies. The energy is classified in terms of High or Low linear energy transfer that will produce a different distribution of DNA damage and other molecules in the cell either by direct action or indirect action.

2. Biomarkers of oxidative stress and their application for assessment of individual radiosensitivity
Sammanfattning : Radiotherapy is one of the most common therapeutic methods for treatment of many types of cancer. Despite many decades of development and experience there is much to improve, both in efficacy of treatment and to decrease the incidences of adverse healthy tissue reactions. LÄS MER
3. Intrinsic radiosensitivity and molecular targets for tumour radiosensitization of head and neck cancer. With special reference to chromosomal instability and pentoxifylline
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
4. In vitro and in vivo aspects of intrinsic radiosensitivity
Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on how physical and biological factors influence the outcome of exposures to γ/X-rays. That the dose rate changes during real life exposure scenarios is well-known, but radiobiological data from exposures performed at increasing or decreasing dose rates is lacking. LÄS MER
5. Risk from radionuclides: a frog's perspective : Accumulation of 137Cs in a riparian wetland, radiation doses, and effects on frogs and toads after low-dose rate exposure
Sammanfattning : Threats from man-made radionuclides include waste issues, increasing number of power plants, underground bomb testing, nuclear weapons, and “dirty bombs”. Until recently the ionizing radiation protection system focused on protecting humans with an implied protection of biota. LÄS MER
