Abstract: | Activity of hexokinase and acetylcholinesterase and pyridoxal co-enzyme content of brain subcellular fractions were studied in rats, bearing sarcoma 45, after local exposure of the tumor to 20 Gy X-radiation and microwave hyperthermia. The carbohydrate metabolism was sharply inhibited while the pyridoxal coenzyme content and acetylcholinesterase activity increased. |
