[Total Ca contents in blood cells and plasma of the irradiated animals].
It was found that the total Ca content in erythrocytes from irradiated sheep and horses increased by 10-40% from 1st till 5th days after irradiation, the intracellular Mg content being unchanged. More than 2-fold increase in total Ca content in lymphocytes during first 15 days was revealed, while in platelets only a trend for a growth in acute period of radiation disease was detected. On the contrary, no reliable changes in total Ca content in plasma after irradiation were observed. This fact indicates that Ca accumulation in blood cells after whole-body irradiation is due to disturbance in intracellular Ca(2+)-homeostasis.
