  • Title: [Early effects of neutron-gamma or gamma irradiation on the group toxicity induced by (+) amphetamine in mice].
    Author: Martin C, Janodet D, Job A, Eschenbrenner M, Fatôme M.
    Journal: C R Acad Sci III; 1993; 316(5):508-12. PubMed ID: 8221235.
    Abstract:
    To better understand the mechanism of action of gamma and neutron radiation on the dopaminergic system, the influence of the two irradiation modalities on the group toxicity of (+) amphetamine was studied in mice. Neutron-gamma irradiation (3.6-4.95 Gy) leads to an early toxicity reduction, while gamma-exposure (7-12 Gy) induces an increase in toxicity. This suggests that these two types of radiation induce different early effects on central dopaminergic system. Possible mechanisms are discussed.
