Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To investigate the structural and metabolic effects on the myocardium in descendant mice after the every generational low dose-rate internal 137Cs radiation exposure, every generations of mice were maintained in the radioisotope facility with free access to drinking water containing 137CsCl (100 Bq/ml). Mice(12 months of age) of the seventeenth generation were assessed metabolic analysis in heart, and the structure abnormality of the myocardium with the electron microscope, and were compared the influence between the offspring exposed to continuous low-dose radiation and control mice of the same generation that started from a littermate mouse. Tendency to swelling of myocardium mitochondria and suppression of the glutathione level (p=0.033) and glycolytic pathway (nonsignificant) were observed in 137Cs drinking mice.
