Antiradiation mixture and ionic-bond product of AET and adenyl nucleotides.

These experiments continued our line of inquiry into low-toxicity high-effectiveness radiomodifying agents obtained by binding radioprotective substances to biogenic and biologically active components or antidotes. Testes for toxicity and radioprotective effects were three preparations combining within one molecule AET and an adenyl nucleotide (AMP, ADP, or ATP). Ionic-bond formation was shown to have advantages over concomitant administration of AET and adenosine phosphoric acids as mixtures. The evidence obtained supports the rational foundation of the concept being developed by our laboratory.

Effects of radioprotective glycans on the arrest of blood-borne lymphoma cells.

The mode of action of radioprotective glycans is not understood. In view of the known importance of cell migration in haematology, on the one hand, and of carbohydrates in homing processes, on the other, we have investigated the effect of several glycans on blood-borne arrest of lymphoma cells. Radioprotective glycans (but not heparin) modified the arrest of injected cells in the spleen. Altered recirculation and homing processes may play a role in the radioprotective properties of glycans.
