Abstract: | Summary The study concerned antiradiation effects in germ-cell genetic structures produced by a combination of ATP, AET, and serotonin at dose ratio optimal for lethality namely, 45 3 1, as arrived at in our previous work. Such a combination was found to reduce by a factor of 2 the translocation yields observed after 400 R X-rays to mouse spermatogonia. In terms of animal survival, ATP has been shown to contribute little to total protection achieved by the same combination; in terms of genetic damage; however, the role of ATP proved essential. Removal of ATP from the combination led to a significant reduction in protective effect. |
