Title: Evaluation of radioprotectors by the Na+ influx study in RBC of lethally irradiated rats. Author: Srinivasan MN, Basu SK, Ghose A. Journal: Strahlentherapie; 1984 Sep; 160(9):565-6. PubMed ID: 6388052. Abstract: Sodium homeostasis in adult male albino Sprague Dawley rats has been examined 24 hours after exposure to 11 Gy whole-body gamma irradiation. Rate of influx of 22Na in red blood corpuscles (in vitro) of irradiated rats significantly increased and was modified by the administration of some radioprotective drugs prior to irradiation. Solcoseryl and AET (200 mg/kg) gave excellent protection and the combinations of 5-HTP with AET or MPG rendered better protection than when used alone.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
