Influence of low-energy x irradiation on neurosecretory activity in the hypothalamus of mice

OSTI ID:4413407
Whole-body irradiation with a single dose of 2100 R of lowenergy x rays (20.5 to 50 kV) of adult mice results in a considerable increase in the secretory activity of neurosecretory ganglion cells of the supraoptic and paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus. This is evidenced by a statistically highly significant increase in nuclear volume of the neurosecretory cells, observed on day 7 and day 14 post irradiation. The changes at day 14 are more pronounced than on day 7 post irradiation. (auth)
