Since July 01, 2008 the journal has been published by State Research Center - Burnasyan Federal Medical Biophysical Center of Federal Medical Biological Agency. The founder from 1956 to the present time is the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, and from 2008 to the present time is the Federal Medical Biological Agency.

Members of the editorial board are scientists specializing in the field of radiation biology and medicine, radiation protection, radiation epidemiology, radiation oncology, radiation diagnostics and therapy, nuclear medicine and medical physics. The editorial board consists of academicians (members of the Russian Academy of Science (RAS)), the full member of Academy of Medical Sciences of the Republic of Armenia, corresponding members of the RAS, Doctors of Medicine, professor, candidates and doctors of biological, physical mathematics and engineering sciences. The editorial board is constantly replenished by experts who work in the CIS and foreign countries.

Six issues of the journal are published per year, the volume is 13.5 conventional printed sheets, 88 printer’s sheets, 1.000 copies. The journal has an identical full-text electronic version, which, simultaneously with the printed version and color drawings, is posted on the sites of the Scientific Electronic Library (SEL) and the journal's website. The journal is distributed through the Rospechat Agency under the contract № 7407 of June 16, 2006, through individual buyers and commercial structures. The publication of articles is free.

The journal is included in the List of Russian Reviewed Scientific Journals of the Higher Attestation Commission. Since 2008 the journal has been available on the Internet and indexed in the RISC database which is placed on Web of Science. Since February 2nd, 2018, the journal "Medical Radiology and Radiation Safety" has been indexed in the SCOPUS abstract and citation database.

Brief electronic versions of the Journal have been publicly available since 2005 on the website of the Medical Radiology and Radiation Safety Journal: http://www.medradiol.ru. Since 2011, all issues of the journal as a whole are publicly available, and since 2016 - full-text versions of scientific articles. Since 2005, subscribers can purchase full versions of other articles of any issue only through the National Electronic Library. The editor of the Medical Radiology and Radiation Safety Journal in accordance with the National Electronic Library agreement has been providing the Library with all its production since 2005 until now.

The main working language of the journal is Russian, an additional language is English, which is used to write titles of articles, information about authors, annotations, key words, a list of literature.

Since 2017 the journal Medical Radiology and Radiation Safety has switched to digital identification of publications, assigning to each article the identifier of the digital object (DOI), which greatly accelerated the search for the location of the article on the Internet. In future it is planned to publish the English-language version of the journal Medical Radiology and Radiation Safety for its development. In order to obtain information about the publication activity of the journal in March 2015, a counter of readers' references to the materials posted on the site from 2005 to the present which is placed on the journal's website. During 2015 - 2016 years on average there were no more than 100-170 handlings per day. Publication of a number of articles, as well as electronic versions of profile monographs and collections in the public domain, dramatically increased the number of handlings to the journal's website to 500 - 800 per day, and the total number of visits to the site at the end of 2017 was more than 230.000.

The two-year impact factor of RISC, according to data for 2017, was 0.439, taking into account citation from all sources - 0.570, and the five-year impact factor of RISC - 0.352.

ABSTRACT

Purpose: To evaluate the frequency and spectrum of chromosome aberrations under X-Ray exposure at doses of 80, 250, and 1000 mGy in a human multipotent mesenchymal stromal cell (MMSC) cell line during long-term cultivation.

Material and methods: MMSCs were isolated from human gingival mucosa by an enzymatic method and cultured in a serum-free medium. The presence of surface antigens was determined using the method of flow cytometry. The ability of the cell line to differentiate in the osteogenic, adipogenic, and chondrogenic directions was studied using induction media. Authentication was performed by genotyping of polymorphic STR loci, cytogenetic analysis was performed by multicolor fluorescent in situ hybridization (mFISH). Irradiation was carried out on an X-ray biological unit RUB RUST-M1 (Russia) at a dose rate of 40 mGy/min, a voltage of 100 kV, and a current of 0.8 mA.

Results: At the first passage after irradiation, a statistically significant increase in the frequency of non-clonal CA compared with the control was recorded at a dose of 80, but not 250 and 1000 mGy. At the late stages of cultivation, the average frequency of breaks per chromosome in the group of non-irradiated cells did not differ from the values obtained after irradiation at doses of 80, 250, and 1000 mGy (p > 0.05). However, in MMSCs irradiated at a dose of 80 mGy, damage occurred more often in pairs of chromosomes 6 and 10, and at a dose of 1000 mGy, in a pair of chromosomes 9. A single irradiation of MMSCs in vitro did not affect the growth and progression of MMSCs characteristic of the studied primary cell line, of clonal cells with chromosome translocations and monosomy X, but led to an increase in the representation of a clone with tetrasomy 8. The total number of random clones with chromosome translocations that arose de novo increased after irradiation at a dose of 1000 mGy.

Conclusion: Minor fluctuations in the proportion of cells with non-clonal CA, depending on the dose received in the early stages after irradiation (passage 1–4), disappeared at the later stages of cultivation (passage 8–14). There were no differences in mean frequencies between irradiated and non-irradiated MMSCs, but after irradiation, damage to some chromosomes could occur more frequently than others. A single X-ray irradiation of MMSCs can promote the growth and progression of primary pathological cytogenetic clones, regardless of the dose received, as well as an increase in the total number of de novo cell clones with chromosomal translocations that have arisen. A single X-ray irradiation of MMSCs can promote the growth and progression of primary pathological cytogenetic clones, regardless of the dose received, as well as an increase in the total number of de novo cell clones with chromosomal translocations that have arisen.
