Influence of X-irradiation on the regeneration of the rat liver after the partial hepatectomy

  • 1. Univerzita P.J. Safarika, Kosice (Czechoslovakia). Inst. of General Biology

Description

Some biochemical and morphological changes in the regenerating rat liver after whole-body exposure to 600 R of X-irradiation were studied. The irradiation caused the profound inhibition of the DNA synthesis / about 80% at 24 h hour after partial hepatectomy / and the retardation in the nucleic acid increment. The mitotic activity during the regeneration period was reduced to about 60%. The relative number of the binuclear hepatocytes was significantly lower compared with the non-irradiated animals. The enlargement of the liver weight and cellularity was also retarded. (orig.)

Abstract (German)

Es wurden einige biochemische und morphologische Veraenderungen in der regenerierenden Rattenleber nach Ganzkoerperbestrahlung mit Roentgenstrahlen (600 R) untersucht. Die Bestrahlung bewirkte eine weitgehende Hemmung der DNS'Synthese (ca. 80% 24 h nach partieller Hepatektomie)und eine Verzoegerung der Nukleinsaeurevermehrung. Die mitotische Aktivitaet war waehrend der Regenerationsperiode auf ca. 60% herabgesetzt, auch lag die Anzahl der binuklearen Hepatozyten wesentlich niedriger als bei den unbestrahlten kontrollierten. Gewichtszunahme der Leber und Zellaufbau waren ebenfalls verzoegert. (orig.)
