EFFECT OF TRYPTAMINE AND 5-HYDROXYTRYPTAMINE ON THYMOCYTES IRRADIATED IN VITRO (in French)

Journal Article · · Compt. rend. soc. biol.
OSTI ID:4843756

The protective effects of tryptamine and 5-hydroxytryptamine against x irradiation of thymocytes in vitro were studied. Neither substance gave any protection. Since both offer good protection in vivo, it is suggested that they do not act directly to protect the cells in vivo, but operate in an indirect manner, perhaps by modifying the local circulatory conditions and thus the conditions of tissue oxygenation.
