International research teams explore genetic effects of Chernobyl radiation

 E-Mail In two landmark studies, researchers have used cutting-edge genomic tools to investigate the potential health effects of exposure to ionizing radiation, a known carcinogen, from the 1986 accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in northern Ukraine. One study found no evidence that radiation exposure to parents resulted in new genetic changes being passed from parent to child. The second study documented the genetic changes in the tumors of people who developed thyroid cancer after being exposed as children or fetuses to the radiation released by the accident. The findings, published around the 35th anniversary of the disaster, are from international teams of investigators led by researchers at the National Cancer Institute (NCI), part of the National Institutes of Health. The studies were published online in

Kids born to Chernobyl parents have no excess mutations

Kids born to Chernobyl parents have no excess mutations Jonathan Chadwick For Mailonline © Provided by Daily Mail MailOnline logo Children whose parents were exposed to radiation from the Chernobyl nuclear disaster have no excess mutations, a new study reveals.  Almost 35 years to the day after the catastrophic accident, researchers report a lack of trans-generational effects of radiation exposure from the blast.  The experts analysed genomes of children born to parents exposed to ionizing radiation after the accident, including those employed as cleanup workers. A second study published on Thursday, meanwhile, shows how exposure to the residual radioactive material caused the development of thyroid cancer.
