초록
1. $^{60}Co$의 $\gamma$선 128 rad로 마우스를 전신조사시킨 바 대조군과 cortisone투여군에서 총 혈청단백량은 1일구에서 A/G비는 5일구에서 각각 증가의 정점을 나타냈고 이후 정상치로 되돌아가는 경향을 나타냈다. 2. cortisone acetate는 전신조사후 총혈청단백량에 있어서 5, 10 및 20일구에서 증가의 지체성을 나타냈다. 3. cortisone acetate를 전신조사후 A/G비에 있어서 1, 5 및 10일구에서 증가의 지체성을 나타냈다. 4. 이상의 결과로 미루어 보아 전신조사전 cortisone 처리는 혈청단백질의 방사선 감수성을 감소시킴을 알수 있으므로 방사선 방어효과가 있다고 사료된다.
Male mice of strain SM were given 128 rads of single whole-body gamma-irradiation of $^{60}Co$, 14 to 16 minutes following a subcutaneous injection of physiological saline or cortisone acetate (1mg/day, for 4 days preirradiation). The serum protein patterns and the level of the total serum proteins were determined at various time intervals after exposure. Total serum protein was determined by Biuret method and serum protein fractions and A/G ratio were determined by paper electrophoresis using Whatman No.1 filter paper and barbital buffer (pH 8.6, ionic strength 0.06). 1. Total body gamma-irradiation caused a rise in the level of the total serum protein at 1 day and in the level of the serum albumin-globulin ratio at 5 days in both cortisone acetate-treated and control groups. 2. Cortisone acetate delayed the total serum protein rise at 5, 10, and 20 days after exposure. 3. Cortisone acetate delayed the A/G ratio rise at 1, 5, and 10 days after exposure. 4. It may be inferred that cortisone greatly reduces the sensitivity of mice to gamma-irradiation on the blood protein, probided that cortisone is given before the exposure.
