Vos, O. (author), Grant, G.A. (author), Budke, L. (author), Medisch Biologisch Laboratorium RVO-TNO (author)The effect of diamide on the radiosensitivity of T cells was investigated under oxic and anoxic conditions. The compound was found to sensitize the cells under both conditions. Under oxic conditions, exposure for 10 min before and during irradiation to 0.1, 0.5 and 1.0 mM diamide produced dose modifying factors of 0.81, 0.60 and 0.55,...article 1976

Instituut voor experimentele gerontologie TNO (author), Kruisbeek, A.M. (author)Age related changes in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and concanavalin A (ConA) responsiveness of rat spleen lymphocytes as judged by 14C TdR incorporation were studied. It was found that responses to both mitogens decreased with advancing age. This report shows that the reduced 14C TdR incorporation could not be attributed to decreased cell survival...article 1976

van Putten, L.M. (author), Kram, L.K.J. (author), van Dierendonck, H.H.C. (author), Radiobiologisch Instituut TNO (author)In studies on a model of induced pulmonary metastasis in mice a tumour host system was analysed which was not affected by immunogenicity of the tumour for the host; neither intensive immunosuppression nor immunization caused a significant change in the quantity of pulmonary metastatic nodules. In contrast the application of cytostatic drugs and...article 1975

Radiobiologisch Instituut TNO (author), Bentvelzen, P. (author), Aarssen, A.M. (author), Brinkhof, J. (author)Primary Rauscher leukemia virus (RLV) induced myeloid leukemias can produce many small clones in agar in the absence of a factor needed for the proliferation of normal myeloid cells. It seems that leukemic cells can more efficiently utilize the small amount of colony stimulating factor (CSF) that it produced by them. At optimal stimulation by...article 1975

Broerse, J.J. (author), Radiobiologisch Instituut TNO (author)Values of the relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of fast neutrons for effect on normal tissue depend not only on the neutron energy and the dose, but also on the type of tissue irradiated. Values of the RBE of 15 MeV neutrons are reviewed for rapidly proliferating rodent tissue, such as mouse bone marrow, mouse intestine and rat skin...article 1974

(author)In order to obtain microfluorometric standards for fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) and tetramethyl rhodamine isothiocyanate (TRITC), Sephadex G 25 Superfine beads (diameter 10-40 μ) were aminated with aminoethylsulphuric acid and stained with FITC or TRITC. Several parameters of the reaction were assessed. A high degree of linearity was...article 1974

Ormai, S. (author), Hagenbeek, A. (author), Palkovits, M. (author), van Bekkum, D.W. (author), Radiobiologisch Instituut TNO (author)The changes in lymphocyte kinetics induced by the lymphocyte mobilizing agent polymethacrylic acid (PMAA) were studied in the normal rat. Quantitative data are presented concerning the degree of lymphocyte mobilization in the spleen and in various lymph nodes at different times after PMAA administration. Data were also obtained regarding the...article 1973

van Hemmen, J.J. (author), Meuling, W.J.A. (author), Bleichrodt, J.F. (author), Medisch Biologisch Laboratorium TNO (author)Paranitroacetophenone (PNAP) and triacetoneamine N oxyl (TAN), which sensitize anoxic cells to ionizing radiation, do not increase the radiosensitivity of bacteriophage DNA irradiated in the dry state, showing that the 'direct action model' of sensitization does not hold in this experimental set up. PNAP and TAN added within 1.5 msec after...article 1973

Molenaar, P.C. (author), Polak, R.L. (author), Nickolson, V.J. (author), Medisch Biologisch Laboratorium TNO (author)Slices from rat brain cortex were incubated for either 5 or 60 min in a medium containing [3H]choline and 4.7 or 25 mM KCl. Bioassayable ACh and labelled ACh were determined in the incubation medium, in the total tissue homogenate and in subcellular fractions. Raising the KCl concentration from 4.7 to 25 mM stimulated the release and synthesis...article 1973

A relationship between gene multiplicity and enzyme activity was observed. Selective pressure on the HGPRT locus by growth of hybrid cells in the presence of 8-azaguanine resulted in decreased...article 1972
