The effect of ionising radiation on testosterone binding globulin characteristics: Correction of the protein' parameters by lipid polyene complexes of fungusLaetiporus sulfureus

Abstract: IR induced a depletion of TeBG from blood simultaneously with species-specific changes of TeBG, which depend on the type of radiation, the dose of radiation (from 0.25 up to 2.2 Gy), and the time after radiation. The Hill coefficient of TeBG (indicating the degree of molecular cooperativity when hormone binding) appeared to be the most radiosensitive marker of the glycoprotein activity because of it is inversely to radiation dose. There are pharmacological possibilities to restore IR-induced "declines" of TeBG… Show more

“…Liu et al [75] and Michael and Amer [76] found that the level of testosterone was decreased after whole-body irradiation dose of 4 and 5 Gy due to alterations in DNA-single strand break, cell apoptosis and oxidative stress. Popoff and Kapich [77] observed a positive correlation between a decline in testosterone affinity and exposure to gamma irradiation. Also, Oi-Kano et al [78] reported that γ-irradiation exposure (6 Gy) resulted in a significant decline in testosterone concentration due to generation of free radicals.…”

“…Also, Popoff and Kapich [73] found a positive correlation between a decline in testosterone affinity and exposure to gamma irradiation. In addition, the lowering effect of γ-irradiation exposure on insulin level was observed due to production of free radicals that induced oxidative stress resulted in reduction in insulin secretion and DNA damage [3].…”
