Rats of Wistar strain were irradiated by gamma rays of Co/sup 6//sup 0/ cysteine. There were some individual variations in the radiosensitivity effect of cysteine. In the group of cysteine injection the survival rate and LD/sup 5// sup 0/ appeared to be larger than in the control animals. The increasing rate of the body weight in the cysteine-injected animals was greater than in the controls. Rats irradiated with 1000 r after the injection of cysteine showed less leukopenia compared with the animals irradiated without the injection. From these results, the injection of cysteine seems to be effective for protection of radiation disease. (Absts. Japan. Med., 1: No. 7, 1960.)
