Research Abstract

In order to study effects of a high pressure pulse on a living body, we investigated mechanical and physiological effects of a shock wave on animal cells and cellular components. First, several mouse tumor cells and normal mouse cells were exposed to shock waves which were generated by a diaphragmless shock tube and we obtained following results.
1)Cells divided two groups, one is weak and destructed by high pressure pulses at over 3 - 4 MPa of peak pressure and the other is relatively strong and not destructed by the high pressure pulses at up to 8 MPa of peak pressure.
2)The cellular tolerance against shock wave exposure was related to adhesiveness of the cells, non-adherent cells were were weak and adherent cells were relatively strong.
3)The cellular tolerance was not related to malignancy of the cells.
4)The cellular tolerance was not related to the cell size nor to the density of subcellular structures. It may be related to the structure of cell membrane.
Next, inorder to elucidate ca … More uses of the difference in the cellular tolerance, we investigated relation between the cellular tolerance and original condition of the cells in tissues, cellular differenciation, or cellular mutation. We also investigated whether each cell has different tolerance in a single weak cell population. Followongs are the results.
1)The cellular tolerance was not related to the cell size nor to the density of subcellular structures.
2)Cells which proliferate in suspension and lymphoid cells were weak, while cells which proliferate in adherent state and conective tissue cells were relatively strong.
3)At least in normal fibroblast cells, there was no relation between the cellular tolerance and count of the cell division.
4)Since the fraction of destructed cells do not increase with increasing the number of high pressure pulse, a single weak cell population may be heterogeneous with respect to the cellular tolerance.
5)In this sense, it is possible that some weak cells are destructed easily by a few high pressure pulses but the other cells are not destructed unless the peak pressure is increased.
6)The difference in this cellular tolerance in the same cell population may be related to the cell cycle of each cell. Less
