Title: [The inhibition by the tumor necrosis factor of the death and DNA fragmentation of lymphoid cells in irradiated rats]. Author: Proskuriakov SIa, Ivannik BP, Aleksandrova SE, Sin'kova RV, Degtiareva EA, Riabchenko NI. Journal: Radiobiologiia; 1992; 32(4):516-21. PubMed ID: 1410288. Abstract: The influence of a tumor necrosis factor, administered 16 h before irradiation of rats, on the radiation response of thymus and bone marrow cells has been investigated. Three and 6 h after irradiation the following indices were analyzed: the number of apoptotic cells in the thymus; the accumulation of polydeoxyribonucleotides and the appearance of single-strand breaks in DNA of bone marrow and thymus cells; and the electrophoretic properties of thymocyte DNA. The injection of a tumor necrosis factor reduced the number of polydeoxyribonucleotides, inhibited internucleosome DNA fragmentation, and did not influence the formation of single-strand breaks in DNA.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
