  • Title: [Characteristics of the biochemical manifestation of the process of thymic lymphocyte death following UV irradiation].
    Author: Soldatenkov VA, Trebenok ZA, Filippovich IV.
    Journal: Radiobiologiia; 1988; 28(3):310-4. PubMed ID: 3399629.
    Abstract:
    Thymus lymphocyte death caused by UV-radiation is a function of radiation dose. Thymocyte death induced by UV-light, in contrast to gamma-radiation, is not accompanied by chromatin degradation. With UV-irradiation, irreparable DNA breaks are not responsible for thymocyte death. Cycloheximide, but not cysteamine, prevents the UV-induced cell death.
