ABSTRACT
Objectives To study the radiation-protective effects produced by the estrogenic activities of genistein(Gen) .Method After blocking estrogen receptor activities by Tamoxifen and Faslodex,the effects of Gen on 30d survival rate and average life span of the mice were monitored after exposure to lethal dose ? radiation(7.5Gy),and the effects of Gen on innate(nonspecific) immune response as well as humoral(B-cell mediated)immune response of the mice were examined after exposure to 4.0Gy ? radiation.Results Gen can enhance the survival rate,average life span,and immune response of the ?-radiation exposed mice.While Tamoxifen had no significant effects on survival rate and immune response of the exposed mice,Faslodex caused a decrease in survival rate and average life span and also inhibited the immune response in those exposed mice.Conclusion Genistein can enhance the radiation tolerance in mice through activation of estrogen receptor ? pathway.
