Pyridoxamine protects mouse small intestine epithelium from radiation-induced apoptosis. Ten-week old mice were given PM (150 mg/kg/day in drinking water) for 24 h prior to whole body irradiation with either 4 or 8 Gy. Twelve hours later, proximal jejunum was fixed, sectioned and stained using TUNEL kit. Shown are representative micrographs of TUNEL staining (A, cells with dark brown nuclei) and a bar graph of the average numbers of TUNEL-positive cells per HPF in each treatment group with SEM from three experiments; *, P < 0.05 (B).
