[Effect of irradiation on proteins and phagocytic activity of rat blood leukocytes]
Abstract:
The method of chromatography on DEAE-cellulose was used to study the effect of radiation (180.6 mC/kg) on the physicochemical properties of rat leukocyte proteins. The qualitative changes were noted in the protein spectrum of leukocytes which were indicative of the substantial changes in the cell proteins. A fraction was isolated which caused a 44% inhibition of the phagocytic activity of intact leukocytes in vitro.
