"the effect of vitamin e on splenocytes apoptosis of gamma-irradiated balb/c mice "
Authors
abstract
apoptosis, a physiologic mechanism to eliminate unwanted cells, is also induced by ionizing irradiation, through production of free radicals. it has been demonstrated that antioxidants such as vitamin e are able to protect cells from damage caused by free radicals. taken together we found it reasonable to make an attempt to evaluate the protective effect of vitamin e against apoptosis. the irradiated mice received 1 gy/day gamma radiation for one day (low dose) or for three successive days (high dose, 3gy). the splenocytes were then isolated at 6, 14 and 24 h after exposure. dna gel electrophoresis and dna fragmentation assay were done in addition to the evaluation of splenocytes cytology. our results showed that vitamin e can reduce apoptosis against low dose irradiation. however it is not able to completely block programmed cell death in high dose irradition.

Elevated amount of the free radicals due to ionizing radiation causes deteriorating damage on immune system. Therefore, we made attempts to investigate the protective effect of vitamin E (vit-E), a biological antioxidant in BALB/c mice, so as to find an affordable prophylactic supplementation for individuals who are at risk. Several groups of mice were selected and exposed to sub-lethal g -irra...

Background: Currently available radioprotectors are poorly tolerated in man and the general use of aminothiols is compromised by their side effects. This study was carried out to test and compare the radioprotective potential of cimetidine and famotidine against lethally gamma irradiated NMRI mice. Materials and Methods: Adult male NMRI mice in groups of 10 were exposed to various doses of gamm...
