Malignant transformation of human bronchial epithelial cells by radon-simulated alpha-particles.

Carcinogenesis - 1 Mar 1994

Hei T K, Piao C Q, Willey J C, Thomas S, Hall E J

Abstract excerpt

Epidemiological studies have shown that inhalation of radon is associated with an increased risk for bronchogenic carcinoma in uranium miners. These alpha-emitting radon daughters also represent the largest component of background radiation to the general public. In the present study, the oncogenic transforming effects of single versus multiple doses of radon-simulated alpha-particles were examined using human...
