title: [The analysis of chromosome lesions in lymphocytes of Hodgkin's lymphoma patients after chemotherapy and radiation therapy].
abstract: The analysis of chromosome lesions in peripheral blood lymphocytes of Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) patients after chemotherapy and chemotherapy with the subsequent course of radiation therapy is carried out. Is shown, that the mean aberration frequency was significantly higher in HL patients after chemotherapy (7.20 +/- 0.58 per 100 metaphases) than in non-treated HL patients (4.80 +/- 0.54, p < 0.01). The subsequent carrying out of radiation therapy enlarges number of chromosome aberrations on 100 metaphases up to 46.7 +/- 10.7 (p < 0.05), of which chromosome-type aberrations (43.2 +/- 10.3 on 100 metaphases) averaged 92.5%. In lymphocytes of 37 out of 43 HL antitumoral treatment patients, we found, in addition to ordinary aberrant cells, a large number of multiaberrant (MA-cells) cells, i.e. metaphases carrying multiple (at least four) chromosome-type exchange aberrations. In 30 non-treated HL patients only one MA-cell was found. From 171 MA-cells which were in 43 HL patients after antitumoral treatment, 114 MA-cells were found at inspection of 9766 diploid metaphases, and the remaining 57 MA-cells were found at inspection of 196 polyploid metaphases. The carrying out after chemotherapy of radiation therapy enlarges in lymphocytes frequency of appearance of MA-cells. The analysis of MA-cells in diploid and polyploid metaphases shown, that the MA-cells could be formed both in vivo, and in vitro in absence of influence of clastogenic factors, and could survive at least two rounds of in vitro replication.
