  • 1. Norman Bethune Univ. of Medical Sciences, Changchun (China)

Description

Bioassay was used to examine the activity of IL-1 β in mouse peritoneal macrophages following whole body irradiation (WBI) with 0. 075 Gy and 2.0 Gy. The activity of IL-1 β was increased to 1.72 fold of sham-irradiated control from 6 h to 24 h after WBI with 75 mGy and returned to the control level on 7 day after irradiation. The biological activity of IL-1 β reached its peak at 24 h after WBI with 2.0 Gy and it was significantly increased at 24 h after WBI with 0.075, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 and 4.0 Gy
