T Cells Contribute to Pathological Responses in the Non-Targeted Rat Heart following Irradiation of the Kidneys.

The difference in the magnitude of the fibrotic response to 10 Gy in the T cell knock down animals compared with the wild type animals was highly significant ( Figure 6 , p = 0.004), suggesting that during the evolution of the radiation response, T cells supply factors that contribute to the deposition of perivascular collagen in the heart. 3.6.
