Abstract:The effect of external gamma-irradiation on the digestive function of rat alveolar macrophages (AM) was studied by using the in vitro assay system, where the 59Fe release from AM engulfing 59Fe-iron hydroxide colloid was measured as an indicator of their digestive capability. Graded doses of gamma-irradiation up to 100 Gy had no effect on the extracellular release of 59Fe in AM cultured at 4 and 37 degrees C for 8-72 hrs postirradiation. When 10 mM Ca-DTPA was added to the culture medium, the 59Fe release was slightly depressed by irradiation at a dose of 30 Gy. It is apparent from these results that gamma-irradiation had no effect on the 59Fe transfer between cell and medium, and little effect on the catabolism of 59Fe-colloid in rat AM.
