ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION or particle radiation (high energy ELEMENTARY PARTICLES) capable of directly or indirectly producing IONS in its passage through matter. The wavelengths of ionizing electromagnetic radiation are equal to or smaller than those of short (far) ultraviolet radiation and include gamma and X-rays.
Leg Ulcer
Peptic Ulcer
Ulcer that occurs in the regions of the GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT which come into contact with GASTRIC JUICE containing PEPSIN and GASTRIC ACID. It occurs when there are defects in the MUCOSA barrier. The common forms of peptic ulcers are associated with HELICOBACTER PYLORI and the consumption of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS).
Interacting populations affecting proliferation of leukemic cells in culture. (1/32)
Peripheral blood cells from three patients with acute leukemic have been studied using a suspension culture method previously described.1 Cytogenetic studies in two of the patients permitted the identification of the proliferating cells in the cultures as being derived from a leukemic population. Cell separation studies using velocity sedimentation supported the concept that growth of the leukemic cells in culture is dependent on an interaction between two populations of leukemic cells. (+info)Thallium-201 for medical use. I. (2/32)
Thallium-201 merits evaluation for myocardial visualization, kidney studies, and tumor diagnosis because of its physical and biologic properties. A method is described for preparation of this radiopharmaceutical for human use. A critical evaluation of 201Tl and other radiopharmaceuticals for myocardial visualization is given. (+info)Permeability of squid axon membrane to various ions. (3/32)
The permeability of the squid axon membrane was determined by the use of radioisotopes of Na, K, Ca, Cs, and Br. Effluxes of these isotopes were measured mainly by the method of intracellular injection. Measurements of influxes were carried out under continuous intracellular perfusion with an isotonic solution of potassium sulfate. The Na permeability of the resting (excitable) axonal membrane was found to be roughly equal to the K permeability. The permeability to anion was far smaller than that to cations. It is emphasized that the axonal membrane has properties of a cation exchanger. The physicochemical nature of the "two stable states" of the excitable membrane is discussed on the basis of ion exchange isotherms. (+info)EFFECT OF CHLOROTHIAZIDE ON CESIUM-137 EXCRETION IN HUMAN SUBJECTS. (4/32)
The therapeutic value of the diuretic, chlorothiazide (Diuril), in reducing the body burden of cesium-137 in human subjects was investigated. Two subjects were given chlorothiazide, 2 g./day, following a single oral intake of cesium-137. The urinary excretion and the per cent retention of cesium-137 were compared with similar data obtained from two control subjects. Although chlorothiazide produced a marked potassium diuresis, it had no significant effect in reducing the body burden of cesium.Analysis was made of the rate of turnover of cesium and potassium in the two control subjects, who were followed up for 320 days. The biological half-lives, T(b), of K were 42 and 41 days. In both subjects a small fraction of the cesium-137 was rapidly excreted. The remainder (88% and 83% in the two cases) was excreted at a slower constant rate. The concentrations further decreased to 44% and 41.5% in 90 and 155 days, respectively. (+info)Cs + ADC in rat brain decreases markedly at death. (5/32)
Spectroscopic resolution of intracellular and extracellular compartments can be used to probe the kinetic environment of those spaces and the compartment-specific changes that occur following injury. This is important for understanding the biophysical mechanisms that underlie the remarkable diffusion-weighted MRI contrast of injured central nervous system (CNS) tissue. Cesium-133 is a physiologic analog of potassium that is actively taken up by cells and resides primarily in the intracellular space. The (133)Cs(+) signal can, thus, be exploited to probe the kinetic environment of the intracellular space. Two principal (133)Cs(+) resonances were observed at 11.74 T. These resonances arise separately from (133)Cs(+) in brain and temporalis muscle. The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of Cs(+) in brain decreased from 1.0 +/- 0.2 microm(2)/ms in healthy tissue to 0.24 +/- 0.04 microm(2)/ms following global ischemia (average ADC +/- average uncertainty), while there was no significant change in the ADC of Cs(+) in temporalis muscle after injury. This finding underscores the tissue-specific nature of the decrease in ADC that accompanies brain injury. Further, as the Cs(+) ADC should reflect water ADC in the intracellular space, these results strongly support the hypothesis that the decrease in water ADC associated with CNS injury arises largely from kinetic changes taking place in the intracellular space.

(+info)Direct enzymatic repair of deoxyribonucleic acid single-strand breaks in dormant spores. (8/32)
With the alkaline sucrose gradient centrifugation method, it was found that dormant spores of Clostridium botulinum subjected to 300 krads of gamma radiation showed a distinct decrease in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) fragment size, indicating induction of single-strand breaks (SSB). A two- to threefold difference in radiation resistance of spores of two strains of C. botulinum, 33A (37% survival dose [D(37)] = 110 krads) and 51B (D(37) = 47 krads), was accompanied by relatively larger DNA fragments (molecular weight 7.9 x 10(7)) obtained during extraction from the radiation-resistant strain 33A and smaller DNA fragments (molecular weight 1.8 x 10(7)) obtained under identical conditions from radiation-sensitive strain 51B. The apparent number of DNA SSB produced by 300 krads in strains 33A and 51B was 0.37 and 3.50, respectively, per 10(8) daltons of DNA. Addition of 0.02 M ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) to spore suspensions during irradiation doubled the apparent number of SSB in strain 33A but had no effect on strain 51B. In vivo, 0.02 M EDTA present during irradiation to 100 to 300 krads decreased survival of spores of 33A by about 30% but had little or no effect on 51B. Survival of 33A was also reduced by about 45% when the spores were irradiated while frozen in dry ice (-75 C) and, after irradiation, immediately exposed to 0.03 M EDTA for 1 h to inhibit repair in the dormant spores. These results suggest that the highly radiation-resistant strain 33A may be able to accomplish repair of SSB during irradiation or after irradiation under nonphysiological conditions, i.e., in the dormant state. This repair can be inhibited by EDTA. Sedimentation patterns show that DNA from spores of both strains 33A and 51B did not show any postirradiation repair during the first 6 h of germination, as opposed to Bacillus subtilis spores, which exhibit repair immediately after germination. These observations suggest the existence of direct repair in physiological dormant spores of strain 33A in the cryptobiotic resting state in the absence of germination. The repair seems to be similar to that of polynucleotide ligase activity shown to be operative in some vegetative cells. Apparently radiation-sensitive strains such as 51B and B. subtilis are generally poor in DNA repair enzyme activity under conditions of spore dormancy, which may account for the approximately threefold difference in radiation sensitivity or DNA fragility of different strains, or both.

- The Vancouver Island sample contained 1.4 Becquerels per cubic metre (Bq/m3) of cesium-134, which WHOI concluded came from Fukushima after the 2011 earthquake that led to a series of meltdowns at the facility. (huffpost.com)
- These isotopes were traced to the incident called the Fukushima Dai-ichi release that resulted from the earthquake and tsunami on March 11, 2011, which caused flooding of the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plants in Japan. (guardianlv.com)
- Japan's government estimates the amount of radioactive caesium-137 released by the Fukushima nuclear disaster so far is equal to that of 168 Hiroshima bombs. (infiniteunknown.net)
- Over the weekend, news reports erupted on the Web that as much as 220 tons of radioactive wastewater leaked from the Fukushima plant equal to approximately 110,000 gallons of highly contaminated water, presumably containing radioactive isotopes of cesium, iodine and strontium. (eponline.com)

- Furthermore, the Cesium-55 atom which was to have been delivered to the lab in a lead-lined Ziploc® bag by collaborators at the recently completed Fukushima power plant was, in fact, Cesium-137, a highly toxic isotope which left the cat in a state of suspended animation, i.e., neither dead nor alive. (seniorcitizenkaneblog.com)
- No alpha radiation, however, is emitted by cesium-137, which is probably the most prolific isotope emitted by Fukushima that is still circulating in the environment (iodine-131, also emitted in large quantities, has a very short half life and has probably mostly vanished from the environment by now). (humansbefree.com)
- But whereas the beta and gamma radiation emitted by radioactive cesium may not be as dangerous from within the body, it is actually far more dangerous if found outside the body - for example, in the contaminated water and soil around the Fukushima plant, or the contaminated water being dumped into the Pacific Ocean.
