AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF THE RADIATION-INDUCED CHANGES ON THE SECRETORY GRANULES OF THE RAT SUBMANDIVULAR GLAND ACINAR CELL

The purpose of this study was to investigate the irradiation effects on the secretory granules of the rat submandibular gland acinar cell. For this study, Sprague-Dawley strain rats were irradiated to their neck region with the dose of 5Gy and l0Gy by 6MV X-radiation, and sacrificed on the experimental periods after irradiation. The authors observed the ultrastructural changes of the secretory granules of the rat submandibular gland acinar cell under a trasmission electron microscope. The results were as follows: In the transmission electron microscopic examination, secretory granules were blurred in limiting membrane on the 3hours groups after irradiation. And they showed decrease in number, irregularities in shape and distributional pattern, and inhomogeneous internal electron density on the Iday and 3days groups. After then, these changes were recovered in shape and distributional pattern on the 14days groups, and changes of internal electron density and limiting membrane were recovered on the 28days groups after irradiation. Among the intracellular organelles, rough endoplasmic reticulum was scattered, but golgi complex was not changed. And such pathologic changes were earlier and more prominent in 10Gy irradiated groups than in 5Gy irradiated groups.
