Chromosome aberrations in astronauts [PDF]
During spaceflight, astronauts are exposed to very penetrating radiation consisting primarily of high-energy charged particles, mostly protons, and secondary radiation created by interaction of nuclei with shielding material. Significant uncertainty still exists regarding the biological effects of exposure to space radiation.

Aberrations Involving Chromosome 1 as a Possible Predictor of Odds Ratio for Colon Cancer--Results from the Krakow Case-Control Study. [PDF]
There is still an open question how to predict colorectal cancer risk before any morphological changes appear in the colon.The purpose was to investigate aberrations in chromosomes 1, 2 and 4 in peripheral blood lymphocytes analyzed by fluorescence in ...

Alpha-particle-induced complex chromosome exchanges transmitted through extra-thymic lymphopoiesis in vitro show evidence of emerging genomic instability [PDF]
Human exposure to high-linear energy transfer α-particles includes environmental (e.g. radon gas and its decay progeny), medical (e.g. radiopharmaceuticals) and occupational (nuclear industry) sources.
