    Abstract Linear energy transfer (LET) is an average quantity, which cannot display the stochastics of the interactions of radiation tracks in the target volume. For this reason, microdosimetry distributions have been defined to overcome the LET shortcomings. In this paper, model calculations of frequency distributions for energy depositions in nanometre size targets, diameters 1-100 nm, and for a 1 μm diameter wall-less TEPC, for electrons, protons, alpha particles and carbon ions are reported. Frequency distributions for energy depositions in small-size targets with dimensions similar to those of biological molecules are useful for modelling and calculations of DNA damage. Monte Carlo track structure codes KURBUC and PITS99 were used to generate tracks of primary electrons 10 eV to 1 MeV, and ions 1 keV µm(-1) to 300 MeV µm(-1) energies. Distribution of absolute frequencies of energy depositions in volumes with diameters of 1-100 nm randomly positioned in unit density water irradiated with 1 Gy of the given radiation was obtained. Data are presented for frequency of energy depositions and microdosimetry quantities including mean lineal energy, dose mean lineal energy, frequency mean specific energy and dose mean specific energy. The modelling and calculations presented in this work are useful for characterisation of the quality of radiation beam in biophysical studies and in radiation therapy.

    Abstract Clinically equivalent doses of hydrocortisone, prednisolone, and dexamethasone have progressively increasing teratogenic activity as judged by their ability to induce cleft palate in the offspring of pregnant mice treated with these drugs during the middle period of gestation. Mole for mole, dexamethasone is at least 300 times more teratogenic than hydrocortisone. The enhanced teratogenicity of dexamethasone probably does not result from its relatively decreased mineralocorticoid activity.

    Abstract X-linked muscular atrophy is a form of adult-onset, usually slowly progressive spinal and bulbar motor neuron degenerative disease that is uniquely associated with male hypogonadism. The mutation responsible for this syndrome is expansion of the trinucleotide repeat-cytosine (C), adenine (A), guanine (G)-in a 5'-translated portion of the androgen receptor (AR) gene from a normal, polymorphic length of n = 11-31 to n >/= 40. The resulting androgen receptor (AR) protein has an expanded polyglutamine tract in its NH(2)-terminal modulatory domain, and is postulated to lose a basic, intrinsic function that causes a mild form of androgen insensitivity; however, almost certainly, it also gains a novel, extrinsic function that is selectively neuronotoxic. The unexplained mechanism that culminates in this form of neuronspecific death is the prototype for three different adult-onset neuronopathies that are caused by (CAG)(n) expansions in other genes.
