摘 要: | To investigate the effects of pre-exposure of mouse pituitary with low-dose ^60Co γ-ray on male reproductive endocrine capacity induced by subsequent high-dose irradiation, the pituitary of the B6C3F1 hybrid strain male mice were irradiated with 0.05 Gy of ^60Co γ-ray as the pre-exposure dose (D1), and were then irradiated with 2 Gy of ^60Co γ-ray as challenging irradiation dose (D2) at 4 h after per-exposure. Pituitary gonadotroping hormones --follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luterinzing hormone (LH), serum testosterone, testis weight and sperm count were measured at 35th day after irradiation.
