- W140096596 abstract "The effects of radiation on the natural resistance of an organism to certain infectious diseases, largely as observed in laboratory experiments on animals, are discussed. Although the mechanism of this process is only partially understood, many particulars, such as a decrease in the number of leucocytes in the blood, or depression of the fagocyte activity in the reticulo-endothelial system, under the influencc of radiation, are known. Other effects of radiation reflected in changes in tissue perviousness, and disturbance of the barrier characteristics are discussed. The influence of total irradiation on the perviousness of the gastric-intestinal tract to toxins of dysentery bacteria was studied. Such irradiation increases the perviousness of the intestine wall to dysentery toxins. The influence of radiation in lowering the bactericide characteristics of the skin, and in suppressing development of the Schwarzmann phenomenon are cited as factors which may have signiflcance in lowering the natural resistance of the organism. Radiation effects on the bactericide characteristics of rabbit serum are also discussed. Appearance of bacteria in the blood of irradiated animals, believed to originate in the digestive tract, is also discussed. Autointection is a very significant factor in radiation sickness, and it is concluded that even small doses ofmore » ionizing radiation can turn latent infection into clinically pronounced infection. The influence of ionizing radiation on the production of antibodies is also treated. Experiments showed that the introduction of antigens to rabbits following irradiation produces only minute quantities of agglutinins, while the ability to produce antibodies is re-established after 3-4 weeks. Reproduction of antitoxic immunity is also dealt with briefly. Experiments also showed that the first phase of antibody formation is radiation-sensitive, while the later phase is radiation- resistant, i.e., radiation applied shortly after immunization tends to slow the process of antibody formation. Thus, once this process is started, it is harmed little even by large doses of radiation. Repeated small doses of radiation, over a long period of time, tend to decrease the harmful effect of a large dose on the formation of antibodies, when immunization follows irradiation.
