Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

PURPOSE: To assess the use of phosphorylated histone H2AX protein (gamma-H2AX) in human blood leukocytes as a rapid screening tool for radiation biodosimetry using a method that examines the characteristics of gamma-H2AX phosphorylation in a variety of lymphocyte subsets following exposure to radiation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Human peripheral blood exposed to 0-10 Gy of (137)Cs irradiation and cultured for 0-48 h was analysed using a rapid whole blood flow cytometry assay to measure gamma-H2AX phosphorylation in different lymphocyte subpopulations. RESULTS: Lymphocyte subsets displayed a similar linear dose response relationship, although cluster of differentiation 4(+) (CD4(+)) and CD8(+) lymphocytes were found to express H2AX phosphorylation on the order of 1.5 times higher than CD19(+) lymphocytes. Phosphorylation of all lymphocyte subsets reached a maximum at 1.5 h and had essentially returned to baseline levels 24 h post-exposure. CONCLUSIONS: Differences in the expression level of gamma-H2AX between lymphocyte subsets were minimal. The usefulness of this assay for radiation biodosimetry is hampered by its relatively quick lifetime kinetics and large inter-individual variation. Therefore, it could only be useful if samples were obtained within 24 h of exposure. Even in this situation, the assay could only be used as an indicator of exposure and not a dosimeter.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
