In order to investigate the relation between kras gene and thymic lymphomas of mice induced by X-rays, we made the thymic lymphomas model of BALB/c mice exposed to X-rays, so as to extracte total RNA and synthesize cDNA and total protein from both of thymic lymphomas and normal thymus tissue. The mRNA and protein expression of kras gene in thymic lymphomas and normal thymus were detected by QRT-PCR and Western blot, respectively. The results show that mRNA expression of kras gene in thymic lymphomas (2.66 ± 1.51) is significantly higher (,p,<,0.05) than that of normal thymus tissue (0.93±0.30); and protein expression of kras gene in thymic lymphomas is higher than that of normal thymus tissue. The results suggest that kras gene might be relative to thymic lymphomas induced by X-rays, and it might be a susceptibility gene to radiation carcinogenesis.
