The relationship between altitude tolerance and food consumption was investigated in irradiated and nonirradiated animals of several species. Food consumption was measured for 3 days following a mid-lethal dose of x-irradiation to assess the degree of postirradiation anorexia. Seventy-two hours after irradiation those animals, as well as ad libitum-fed and food-deprived nonirradiated animals were exposed to a simulated altitude tolerance test. The mortality produced in 4 hours was used as the criterion of hypoxic tolerance for each species. Irradiated rabbits and rats exhibited a severe decrease in food consumption and an increased hypoxic tolerance. Food consumption of mice was depressed during the 3 days following irradiation although the effect was much less than that observed for rats and rabbits. Guinea pigs and hamsters exhibited only a slight decrease in food consumption with recovery occurring after 24 hours. Mice, guinea pigs and hamsters did not exhibit a significant increase in hypoxic tolerance 3 days after radiation exposure. When nonirradiated rabbits, rats, mice and guinea pigs were food deprived, the hypoxic tolerance was significantly increased in all species.

Young adult male and female Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to a simulated altitude of 33,500 ft. both with and without restraint. The exposure was begun immediately upon the restraint of the experimental animals. The restrained animals died significantly sooner than did the nonrestrained controls. The possible relation of colonic temperature, oxygen consumption and emotional stress to the decreased altitude tolerance is discussed. It is suggested that the data serve as a warning for caution in the use of restraint for convenience in altitude tolerance experiments. Submitted on August 6, 1958

SummaryPraeperitoneal administration of colloidal 198Au complicating the treatment of anascitic ovarian cancer is reported. Typical scintiscans and various clinical findings of muscle necrosis and radiation myositis are described. Administration of larger amount of saline solution preceding the radiogold instillation controlled by simultaneous scintiscanning are suggested as safety measures in patients when no ascitic fluid is present.

The resorptive effects of 0.01 M cerium nanodioxide sol upon single intraperitoneal administration to rats have been studied. The acute exposure to nanoparticles was found to have a dose-dependent general toxic effect on the body (weight loss, inflammatory changes in the abdominal organs, modification of individual behavior, hematological changes, metabolic imbalance), which develops on the background of POL activation. The prooxidant effect of cerium dioxide nanoparticles is demonstratively manifested at relatively high exposure levels (80–8 mg / kg). The threshold dose for the general toxic effect (Limch integr) is equal to 0.8 mg / kg.

The aim of the study was to assess the role of the cellular component of the stroma in liver regeneration after its toxic damage. The experimental model of toxic hepatitis caused by intraperitoneal administration of tetrachloromethane (CCl4) showed that regeneration processes in the liver on the 3rd day are manifested in an increase in binuclear hepatocytes, Ki-67 + cells and hepatocytes dividing by mitosis. The reaction of the stromal component is expressed in an increase in the number of CD45 +, mast and sinusoidal cells (SC). On the 7th day of the development of toxic hepatitis the hepatocyte alteration increases, that is accompanied by a sharp decrease in the mitotic index and the number of Ki-67 + cells. In the stromal component there is a decrease in the number of sinusoidal cells, CD45 + and a significant increase in mast cells with a high secretion granule content.
