  • Optically stimulated luminescence from Al2O3 : C irradiated with 10-60 MeV protons

    • We investigated the potential use of Al2O3:C for medical proton dosimetry. Detector crystals coupled to fiber-optic cables were irradiated in proton beams with energies from 10 to 60 MeV. The key finding is that the initial intensity of the optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) signal is energy independent for small detectors (<0.5mm) and relatively small doses (<0.3Gy). This feature is related to the supralinearity of the detectors dose-response to low linear energy transfer (LET) radiation. The results show that our system can be used in medical proton dosimetry without LET-dependent correction factors in the dose and energy interval investigated. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V.

  • Genetic variation in LIN28B is associated with the timing of puberty
  • 2009
  • In: Nature Genetics. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 1061-4036 .- 1546-1718. ; 41:6, s. 729-733
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • The timing of puberty is highly variable(1). We carried out a genome-wide association study for age at menarche in 4,714 women and report an association in LIN28B on chromosome 6 (rs314276, minor allele frequency (MAF) = 0.33, P = 1.5 x 10(-8)). In independent replication studies in 16,373 women, each major allele was associated with 0.12 years earlier menarche (95% CI = 0.08-0.16; P = 2.8 x 10(-10); combined P = 3.6 x 10(-16)). This allele was also associated with earlier breast development in girls (P = 0.001; N = 4,271); earlier voice breaking (P = 0.006, N = 1,026) and more advanced pubic hair development in boys (P = 0.01; N = 4,588); a faster tempo of height growth in girls (P = 0.00008; N = 4,271) and boys (P = 0.03; N = 4,588); and shorter adult height in women (P = 3.6 x 10(-7); N = 17,274) and men (P = 0.006; N = 9,840) in keeping with earlier growth cessation. These studies identify variation in LIN28B, a potent and specific regulator of microRNA processing(2), as the first genetic determinant regulating the timing of human pubertal growth and development.

  • Medical proton dosimetry using radioluminescence from aluminium oxide crystals attached to optical-fiber cables
  • 2007
  • In: Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A. - : Elsevier BV. - 0168-9002 .- 1872-9576 .- 0167-5087. ; 580:1, s. 466-468
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • The prime objective of this study is to investigate if radioluminescence (RL) from carbon-doped aluminum oxide (Al2O3:C) crystals potentially can be used for absorbed dose-rate measurements during proton radiotherapy. The RL from two separate (2 mg) Al2O3:C crystals attached to optical-fiber cables were recorded during irradiations in water in a 175 MeV clinical proton beam. The RL response for low-LET protons in the plateau region of the Bragg curve was found to closely resemble that observed for a clinical 6 MV X-ray beam. An identical response was found in the Bragg peak (where the dose-averaged LET is about 4 keV/mu m) for absorbed doses less than 0.3 Gy. For doses in the range of 0.3-3Gy, we observed a significant decrease in luminescence efficiency with LET. At 3 Gy, the luminescence efficiency was about 60% in the Bragg-peak region. The study implies that the RL-signal from Al2O3:C could potentially be suitable for medical proton dosimetry in the 0-0.3 Gy range even without any LET-dependent correction factors.
