FLASH-RT preserves growth hormone (GH) levels. Plasma samples were collected 1 week after treatment from control non-irradiated animals and animals irradiated with 8 Gy at the age of 3 weeks. GH concentration in plasma was quantified by the ELISA method. Data clearly show that, compared to CONV-irradiated mice, FLASH-irradiated mice expose a higher level of plasmatic GH, comparable to control levels. Mean ± SEM (n = 8 animals/group), p-values derived from ANOVA followed by t-test with Bonferroni correction for multiple comparison. * p < 0.05.
