To investigate the changes of the metabolism of rat myocardiac cells cultured in vitro under simulated weightlessness and gamma-irradiation, rat myocardiac cells were rotated on a horizontal clinostat, and irradiated with 2Gy 60Co gamma-ray. The results showed: (1) after irradiation, the LDH activity and SOD concentrations showed a significant increase, and the MDA concentration also increased. (2) After irradiation, LDH activity increased 60% on the 3rd day, and SOD concentration almost doubled on the first day. (2) MDA concentration also increased but it reduced to normal after the 3rd day. (3) Simple rotation on the clinostat showed no effect on the parameter, but there was a synergistic effect when it was combined with gamma-irradiation.

D003037 Cobalt Radioisotopes Unstable isotopes of cobalt that decay or disintegrate emitting radiation. Co atoms with atomic weights of 54-64, except 59, are radioactive cobalt isotopes. Radioisotopes, Cobalt
D005720 Gamma Rays Penetrating, high-energy electromagnetic radiation emitted from atomic nuclei during NUCLEAR DECAY. The range of wavelengths of emitted radiation is between 0.1 - 100 pm which overlaps the shorter, more energetic hard X-RAYS wavelengths. The distinction between gamma rays and X-rays is based on their radiation source.

D006112 Gravitation Acceleration produced by the mutual attraction of two masses, and of magnitude inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two centers of mass. It is also the force imparted by the earth, moon, or a planet to an object near its surface. (From NASA Thesaurus, 1988) G Force,Gravistimulation,Gravity,Force, G,G Forces,Gravities
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement.
