Active electrolyte transport and respiration after X irradiation in vitro (in German)

OSTI ID:4024971
Electrolytic transport was studied in renal cortex sections irradiated with 14000 to 60000 r of x radiation in vitro. Increasing loss of potassium with dose was observed at an incubation temperature of 37 deg C. This loss was partially compensated by sodium uptake. The study of the effects of incubation temperature on the concentration gradient showed that the highest K and lowest Na values occur at 27 deg C. A consideration of the relationship between respiration as an energy source for the active transport and the electrolyte content showed no detectable effect of irradiation on the oxygen uptake by the section. After increase of the dose to 300,000 and 600,000 r there was a distinct increase in respiration. An increased potassium loss, again partially compensated by sodium uptake, was also observed. Possible mechanisms are indicated. (J.S.R.)
