Fate of the Highly Polymerized Spleen Deoxyribonucleic Acid labelled with Phosphorus-32 Injected Intraperitoneally into Rats

Nature volume 184, pages 1818–1819 (1959)Cite this article

Abstract

IT has been shown in this laboratory that preparations of highly polymerized rat spleen and liver deoxyribonucleic and ribonucleic acids produce a recovery effect on irradiated rats1,2,3. Furthermore, in the same laboratory it was demonstrated that spleen nucleic acids administered to the irradiated rats have a restorative effect on hæmolysin production4, which regularly becomes reduced after the irradiation.
