title: [Functional interactions of components of the adenylate cyclase system in the rat liver after prenatal exposure to gamma irradiation].
abstract: The effects of long-term prenatal gamma-radiation (0.5 Gy) on the glucagon signalling through adenylyl cyclase in adult rat liver have been investigated. The coupling of receptor/Gs-protein/adenylyl cyclase was tested using kinetic constants for stimulation of adenylyl cyclase by GTP, Gp(NH)pp, AlF4- and glucagon. The estimated data suggests that prenatal chronic gamma-radiation prompted (i) a decrease in rate of GTP hydrolysis on Gs-protein; (ii) a reduction of glucagon potency to accelerate the exchange GDP for GTP on Gs-protein.
