“…Sur les 10 publications qui étudient l'impact du tabac sur le nombre de translocations, sept ne montrent pas d'augmentation significative du taux de translocations après une consommation excessive de tabac (plus de 20 cigarettes par jour) (Beskid et al, 2007 ;Maeng et al, 2004 ;Pressl et al, 1999 ;Tawn et Cartmell, 1989 ;Tucker et al, 2003 ;Van Diemen et al, 1995 ;Whitehouse et al, 2005). La consommation de cigarettes par jour varie selon le terme employé.…”

The assessment of exposure to ionizing radiation, carried out long time after exposure, is currently performed by scoring of translocations, a specific type of chromosomal aberrations. The translocations rate observed in peripheral blood lymphocytes of exposed subjects is compared to that observed in a control population. However, the translocation specificity towards radiation exposure is not clearly identified. To avoid any hasty conclusion, it is necessary to identify all the factors likely to induce translocation. To our knowledge, no study has thus far examined the effects of all these different factors on translocation rates. A review of the literature thus allowed us to assess the impact of host factors and lifestyle on the production of translocations. This study confirms that age appears to be the factor 1 IRSN, Laboratoire de Dosimétrie Biologique, BP 17, 92262 Fontenay-aux-Roses Cedex, France.Article publié par EDP Sciences E. GRÉGOIRE et al. 154 RADIOPROTECTION -VOL. 45 -N° 2 (2010) having the greatest impact on the rate of translocations, especially over 60 years. To date, the factor "age" is already considered in estimating the impact of radiation on the rate of translocation for all age groups. However, the study also shows that this rate varies significantly when the patient is exposed simultaneously and significantly towards many lifestyle agents. A precise threshold translocation rate should thus be established as a function of known behavioral exposures, below which it is impossible to conclude that radiological exposure has occurred. The effects of chemicals on the translocation rate after occupational exposure will be the subject of a second part.

“…It is considered toxic in various organs like heart, liver and kidney of mammals (Okolie et al, 2004). It has been reported to produce chromosome damage in agricultural workers (Tucker et al, 2003;Perez et al, 2009). Its wide use however is attributed to its low cost, ease of application, lack of residues, as well as potency (Zuryn et al, 2008).…”

The study was carried out to assess the technical competence of handling agricultural pesticides among grain farmers in grain producing states in Nigeria. The study was conducted in Katsina State of Nigeria. Multistage sampling method was employed and four local government areas were selected for the study. The local government areas include Faskari, Funtua, Danja and Bakori. Fifty respondents were chosen at random from two villages in each local government area to make a total of 200 respondents in all. Information on the most commonly used maize preservative pesticides were obtained through structured questionnaires. The mean age of respondents ranged between 43-52%, majority of the respondents had little or no formal education. The most commonly used maize storage pesticide was aluminium phosphide (35-44%). Misuse of aluminium phosphide, a restricted pesticide in the study areas seems to be inevitable due to high level of illiteracy among the farmers.

“…Lors de cette étude, les résultats du FISH ont fournit un support pour l'utilisation continuelle des équipements de protection par ces travailleurs. Ainsi, la diminution du taux de translocations dans une population exposée à ce type d'agents mutagènes a prouvée l'efficacité des protections individuelles (gants, masques, combinaisons…) (Tucker et al, 2003). Cette efficacité peut expliquer également la différence des taux de translocations entre la population exposée aux fongicides et celle exposée à la phosphine.…”

RÉSUMÉABSTRACT Impact of genotoxic agents on the rate of translocations -part 2: toxic agents related to occupational exposure.In the first part of this review, we examined through an extensive literature review, the influence of various factors related to the individual (age, sex, alcohol and tobacco) on the rate of translocation. In the second part, our literature review focused on the study of more toxic factors related to occupational exposure. All toxic agents tested induced an increase in the translocation rate in lymphocytes of exposed people. However 2 agents (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons -PAHs-and heavy metals) increase significantly the rate of translocation of exposed persons. This increase is function to the dose and duration of exposure.
