Abstract

Aim Systemic and local therapies can be used to treat painful bone metastases. It has been shown that certain pharmaceuticals such as Re-186 (rhenium-186) are effective in the treatment of pains caused by bone metastasis and a correlation between bone metastases and T cells has also been shown. The aim of this study was to investigate the genotoxic effect of Re-186-1,1-hydroxyethylidenediphosphonate (Re-186-HEDP) on the cultured peripheral blood lymphocytes using an micronucleus (MN)-fluorescence in-situ hybridization assay.
