Abstract

Reduction of nitric oxide (NO) production is related to increased survival in some models of infection and ionizing radiation (IR) exposure. The work used lethally irradiated (⁶⁰Co, 8Gy) C57Bl6j mice, treated or not with aminoguanidine (AG), an inhibitor of an isoform of nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). Also tested iNOS-/- knockout mice and a distinct group treated intraperitoneally with synthetic CXCL12, a homing chemokine related to hematopoietic reconstitution after IR exposures. Aminoguanidine treatment lead to an overshoot of proliferation of hematopoietic CD34⁺ cells in bone marrows (2nd day after IR) and spleens (2nd to 4th day after IR) of irradiated mice, showing a compensative response of these organs against deleterious effects of radiation. CXCL12 mRNA production was increased in spleens of AG-treated mice at 2nd day after IR, but not in other periods neither in bone marrows. CXCL12 administration did not alter CD34⁺ counts but seemed to keep circulating platelet counts in levels comparable to controls. Thus, CXCL12 and AG administration could help on bone marrow repopulation after critically exposed individuals.
