Abstract:: |
Thirty-five Syrian golden hamsters were divided into 7 groups based on the time interval following irradiation (B to H).Group A served as the control and groups B to H were designated as one day, 2 days, 3 days, 1 week, 4 weeks, 8 weeks and 9 months after irradiation, respectively.The hamster liver received a single 40 Gy dose of radiation using an 8 MeV electron beam.A magnetic field of 6.34 Tesla and 31P-resonance frequency appropriate for the spectrometer.All hamsters were sacrificed and histological specimens were obtained.The ratios of each peak value phosphourus signal to β-ATP obtained from the control group and irradiated groups showed that the peak intensities of the PME was higher in groups B-D, γ-ATP and α-ATP in groups of later than 1 week after irradiation were lower than those of the control group.Intracellular pH value for group B was higher than that for group A,and pH values for groups C and D were lower at once, while pH values for groups E and F were higher again than those for C and D(P<0.05).Histological specimens showed focal lose of hepatocytes, fatty degeneration and hepatocyte atrophy.The authors consider that 31P-MRS is very useful in evaluation of the metabolic changes in radiation hepatitis. |
