  • Title: [Effects of hepato-protective agents thioctacid and flavobion on histones in intact and regenerating liver of irradiated rats].

    Journal: Biull Eksp Biol Med; 1992 Feb; 113(2):191-3. PubMed ID: 1611073.
    Abstract:
    The changes in concentration, total content of histones and relative proportion of individual histone fractions in intact and regenerating liver were followed in rats after administration of hepatoprotective agents flavobion and thioctacid and after whole-body gamma irradiation with a dose 5.7 Gy. We found that thioctacid alone caused an increase in histone concentration in intact liver whereas flavobion alone did not produce significant quantitative changes. Irradiation alone decreased markedly the concentration and total content of histones in intact as well as regenerating liver of unprotected rats. Administration of thioctacid or flavobion protected from these quantitative histone changes or alleviated them considerably. In relative proportion of individual histone fractions, the most profound changes were found in H1 histone after flavobion application.
