[Effect of x-irradiation on the generation of O2- in rat liver microsomes].

A study was made of generation of O2- in NADPH-dependent chain of oxidation of liver microsomes in irradiated rats (7 and 10 Gy). The rate of O2- generation sharply increased at early times after irradiation. The data obtained prompt an assumption that the increase in the rate of O2- generation is perhaps connected with the changes in functioning of both NADPH-cytochrome P-450-reductase and cytochrome P-450.
