Oxidative Modification Status of Human Serum Albumin Caused by Chronic Low-Dose Radiation Exposure in Mamuju, Sulawesi, Indonesia

The recently discovered high-level natural background radiation area (HBRA) of Mamuju in Indonesia provides a unique opportunity to study the biological effects of chronic low-dose radiation exposure on a human population. The mean total effective dose in the HBRA was approximately 69.6 mSv y<sup...

description The recently discovered high-level natural background radiation area (HBRA) of Mamuju in Indonesia provides a unique opportunity to study the biological effects of chronic low-dose radiation exposure on a human population. The mean total effective dose in the HBRA was approximately 69.6 mSv y<sup>−1</sup> (range: 47.1 to 115.2 mSv y<sup>−1</sup>), based on a re-evaluation of the individual radiation exposure dose; therefore, proteomic analyses of serum components and oxidative modification profiling of residents living in the HBRA were reconducted using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The analysis of the oxidative modification sequences of human serum albumin revealed significant moderate correlations between the radiation dose and the modification of 12 sequences, especially the 111th methionine, 162nd tyrosine, 356th tyrosine, and 470th methionine residues. In addition, a dose-dependent variation in 15 proteins of the serum components was detected in the serum of residents exposed to chronic low-dose radiation. These findings suggest that the alterations in the expression of specific proteins and the oxidative modification responses of serum albumin found in exposed humans may be important indicators for considering the effects of chronic low-dose radiation exposure on living organisms, implying their potential utility as biomarkers of radiation dose estimation.
