Spleen-shielding in x-irradiation-accelerated experimental amyloidosis in mice
Journal Article

· Acta Pathologica et Microbiologica Scandinavica
An accelerating effect was previously found for x irradiation in total- body exposure to 400 r in mice made amyloidotic with caseinate injections. Results are presented from investigations with the use of lead-shielding of the surgically exteriorized spleen or of the body (only the spleen trradiated) under 400 r irradiation of mice with caseinate-induced amyloidosis. The conclusion is drawn that the accelerating effect of x rays in this kind of amyloidosis is not only part of a general stress reaction, but a direct one exercised on the cells of the reticular tissue, which are active in the production of amyloid.
