چکیده

objective: ionizing radiation produces free radicals which induce dna damage and cell death. origanum vulgare leaf extract (ovle) is a natural compound and its capability of scavenging free radicals and its antioxidant activity have been demonstrated by many researchers. in this study, using micronucleus assay, radioprotective effect of ovle against clastogenic and cytotoxic effect of gamma irradiation has been investigated in mice bone marrow cells. materials and methods: ovle was injected intraperitoneally to the balb/c mice 1hr prior to gamma irradiation (3gy) at the doses of 100 and 200 mg/kg. twenty four hours after irradiation or treatment, animals were killed and smears were prepared from the bone marrow cells. the slides were stained with may grunwald–giemsa method and analyzed microscopically. the frequency of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes (mnpces), micronucleated normochromatic erythrocyte (mnnces) and cell proliferation ratio pce/pce+nce (polychromatic erythrocyte/polychromatic erythrocyte + normochromatic erythrocyte) were calculated. results: the results showed that gamma irradiation (3gy) increased the frequency of mnpces, mnnces and  reduced the pce/pce+nce ratio in mice bone marrow compared to the non-irradiated control group (p< 0.0001). injection of ovle significantly reduced the frequency of mnpces (p< 0.0001) and mnnces (p< 0.05) and increased the pce/pce+nce ratio as compared to the irradiated control group (p< 0.05). conclusion: it seems that ovle with its antioxidant properties and its capability of scavenging free radicals and reactive oxygen species can reduce the cytotoxic effects of gamma irradiation in mice bone marrow cells.

Citrus extract protects mouse bone marrow cells against gamma-irradiation

With respect to radiation damage to humans, it is important to seek possible radioprotectants to modify the normal response of biological systems to radiation-induced toxicity or lethality. For this reasons, the search for less-toxic radiation radioprotectants has spurred interest in the development of different compounds. The radioprotective effects of citrus extract were investigated by using...

Placental extract protects bone marrow-derived stem/progenitor cells against radiation injury through anti-inflammatory activity

Placental extracts have been reported to have anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory activities. Because there is increasing evidence that ionizing radiation induces the release of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and inflammatory cytokines, we examined the protective effects of a placental extract against radiation injury. C57BL/6 mice were exposed to 1 Gy of γ-ray radiation every day for 5 days, a...
