[Changes in the neutral lipid composition of the liver and tumor cell nucleus during x-irradiation of animals]. 1983

N P Pal'mina, and E L Mal'tseva, and E B Burlakova

With X-irradiation of mice bearing a transplanted Ehrlich ascites tumor all the neutral lipid fractions undergo substantial changes. The most considerable increase was observed in the content of cholesterol ethers in the liver cell nuclei of a tumor host and in the content of triglycerides in Ehrlich ascites tumor nuclei. The radiation reaction in the liver cell nuclei of the tumor host was nearly the same as that in the liver cell nuclei of intact animals while it was altered and often opposite directed in Ehrlich ascites tumor nuclei.

D002286	Carcinoma, Ehrlich Tumor	A transplantable, poorly differentiated malignant tumor which appeared originally as a spontaneous breast carcinoma in a mouse. It grows in both solid and ascitic forms.	Ehrlich Ascites Tumor,Ascites Tumor, Ehrlich,Ehrlich Tumor Carcinoma,Tumor, Ehrlich Ascites
D002467	Cell Nucleus	Within a eukaryotic cell, a membrane-limited body which contains chromosomes and one or more nucleoli (CELL NUCLEOLUS). The nuclear membrane consists of a double unit-type membrane which is perforated by a number of pores; the outermost membrane is continuous with the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM. A cell may contain more than one nucleus. (From Singleton & Sainsbury, Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, 2d ed)	Cell Nuclei,Nuclei, Cell,Nucleus, Cell
