Summary: | The protection and repair effects of Brassica rapa leaf juice on radio-damage mouse induced by <sup>60</sup>Coγ-rays were studied with the methods of measuring hemogram of mice, classifying of WBC, measuring wieght of the spleens and chest glands, and the micronucleus test. The results show that leaf juice of Brassica rapa irrigated after or before radiation was significantly effective in curing the decreasing of white blood cell, red blood cell and platelet induced by <sup>60</sup>Coγ-radiation. The leaf juice of Brassica rapa could also protect normal immune function of spleen and thymus of mice and increase the immunocyte number. The leaf juice of Brassica rapa could apparently reduce micronucleus of PCE induced by <sup>60</sup>Coγ-rays in bone narrow of mice. It shows that leaf juice of Brassica rapa can remarkably protect and repair the injury radiated with <sup>60</sup>Coγ-rays. So the leaf juice of Brassica rapa has efficient capacity of antiradiation and repair the injury of radiation. The possible mechanism of antiradiation of leaf juice of Brassica rapa was discussed in the paper. |
