  • Abstract
    We examined the life-span-prolonging effects of five kinds of α-Galactosylceramides (α-GalCers) on mice irradiated with lethal dose (9 Gy) of X ray, and found that they show strong radioprotective activities even when they are administered to mice after the irradiation. These results suggest that α-GalCers are useful as radioprotective agents.
