Rats were given 250 R whole-body x radiation; controls were sham irradiated. The rats were sacrificed at 3-day intervals up to 153 days after treatment. The testes were removed and tissue preparations were assayed for monoamine oxidase (MAO) activity. The activity of MAO from irradiated rats was higher than that of controls from 7 to 16 days after treatment and lower from day 19 to 31. MAO activity was increased 80 days after irradiation together with a significant increase in testicular weight and regeneration of the seminiferous tubules. MAO activity at 153 days after treatment was not significantly different between the two groups of animals. (HLW)
