| Research Abstract |
Salivary gland hypofunction, known as xerostomia, occurs as a result of radiation therapy for head cancer, and can cause a variety of critical oral health issues.
Amifostine has been shown to protect normal tissues as salivary gland from damage caused by radiation. Pregnant mice that were injected intraperitoneally with amifostine were irradiated 30 minutes later. We investigated the effect of amifostine on X-ray irradiated mice fetal submandibular gland. As a results, amifostine to reduce the effects of radiation, which had an inhibitory effect on cell activity.
