Der Einfluß einer Röntgen-Ganzkörperbestrahlung auf den Einbau von 2-14C-Glycin in die Proteine der Leber, Milz und des Blutes von Ratten

Abstract

Whole body irradiation with 800 R caused a three fold increase of radioactivity in the liver and spleen proteins of rats. Analysis of the radioactivity of the precursor pool showed an increase of 14C-activity to the same degree as found for the proteins. Thus the increase of the incorporation rate of 14C-glycine into the proteins is simulated, and consequently there is no change of the protein synthesis in the liver of an irradiated rat as measured with 14C-glycine. This is probably true for the rat spleen also.
