High-energy photons vs protons in their action on vascular function in rats

Abstract: The goal of this work was to compare the effects of a photon (PTI) and proton/hadron (HTI) irradiation on rat’s cardiovascular system. Cardiovascular functions were studied in rats after PTI and HTI impact in the equivalent total absorbed dose of 6 Gy. Photons were delivered using 60Co gamma-rays (0.8 Gy min-1). The particle irradiation was done by using a 9,6×10-12 J proton beam accelerated in the U-240 isochronous cyclotron. Both PTI and HTI decreased the acetylcholine-induced relaxation in rat’s aorta smoot… Show more
