  • Title: The effect of X-radiation on reticulo-endothelial system and its treatment with radiodetoxified-endotoxin and trace elements in rats.
    Author: Gál K, Bertók L.
    Journal: Acta Microbiol Immunol Hung; 1994; 41(4):457-63. PubMed ID: 7866730.
    Abstract:
    A new in vivo method has been developed for the precise observation of RES activity. Both Escherichia coli endotoxin 100 micrograms/100 g i.v. (LPS) and radiodetoxified endotoxin 100 micrograms/100 g body weight i.v. (RD-LPS, TOLERIN) both increased the granulopectic activity of RES. The RD-LPS was more effective. The preparation containing trace elements also increased the activity of RES. The treatment consisting of the use of both trace elements and RD-LPS proved to be the most effective. The activity of RES was inversely proportional to various doses of X-ray irradiation (7, 8, 9 Gy). Trace elements and RD-LPS even improved the immunity system of animals having deteriorated RES.
