THE EFFECT OF BONE MARROW ON THE REGENERATION OF THE LIVER IN NORMAL AND X- RAY TREATED RATS

Journal Article · · Magyar Radiologia (Hungary)
OSTI ID:4686486

The regeneration of the liver in rats is increased by extract of bone marrow. On the other hand, irradiated suspension of bone marrow has a strong inhibitory effect upon liver regeneration. Radiation therapy of the whole body reduces the regeneration of the liver, even when the liver region is protected by lead plate. The inhibitory effect is mitigated, if not prevented, by the administration of bone marrow suspension. Bone marrow irradiated in vitro had no effect. (OTS)
