Alpha-tocopherol succinate- and AMD3100-mobilized progenitors mitigate radiation combined injury in mice
The purpose of this study was to elucidate the role of alpha-tocopherol succinate (TS)- and AMD3100-mobilized progenitors in mitigating combined injury associated with acute radiation exposure in combination with secondary physical wounding. CD2F1 mice were exposed to high doses of cobalt-60 gamma-radiation and then transfused intravenously with 5 million peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBM...
متن کاملRadiation Protection by the Antioxidant Alpha-Tocopherol Succinate
Radiological terrorism and use of nuclear weapons are major concerns for national defense and homeland security. At low doses of radiation, the hazards from these scenarios may not be apparent immediately, but may result in late arising pathologies like cancer and pulmonary fibrosis. At high doses, the hazards vary from incapacitation due to nausea and diarrhea to mortality. Free radical specie...
متن کاملRadioprotective properties of tocopherol succinate against ionizing radiation in mice
Threats of nuclear and other radiologic exposures have been increasing but no countermeasure for acute radiation syndrome has been approved by regulatory authorities. In prior publications we have demonstrated the efficacy of tocopherol succinate (TS) as a promising radiation countermeasure with the potential to protect against lethal doses of ionizing radiation exposure. The aim of this study ...
متن کاملRRR-alpha-tocopherol succinate down-regulates oncogenic Ras signaling.
alpha-Tocopherol succinate (TS), an analogue of vitamin E, has growth-inhibitory activity in a wide spectrum of in vitro and in vivo cancer models. Here, we report that modulation of oncogenic Ras is associated with TS activity. TS inhibits the proliferation and induces apoptosis of NIH3T3 cells stably transfected with oncogenic K-Ras and H-Ras, but not NIH3T3 cells expressing empty vector. TS ...
متن کاملTocols induce G-CSF and mobilise progenitors that mitigate radiation injury.
Tocols induce high levels of granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). G-CSF mobilises progenitors that allow mice that have been severely immunocompromised by exposure to acute, high-dose ionising irradiation to recover and to survive. The neutralisation of G-CSF abrogates the radioprotective efficacy of tocols. This article reviews studies in which CD2F1 mice were irradiated with suffici...
