| Abstract | This study assessed the effects of high doses of ionizing radiation on eruption rate, odontogenic region morphology, secretory-stage ameloblasts, and enamel organic extracellular matrix (EOECM) of rat maxillary incisors. For the study, 30 male rats were divided into three experimental groups: control (non-irradiated), irradiated by 15 Gy, and irradiated by 25 Gy. Irradiated groups received a single dose of 15 or 25 Gy of X-rays in the head and neck region. The maxillary incisor eruption rate was measured. Sections of 5-µm thickness of the maxillary incisor odontogenic regions were evaluated using bright field light microscopy. Ultrathin sections of secretory ameloblasts and their EOECM were analyzed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Irradiated groups showed significantly diminished eruption rate values at the 4th and at the 6th day after irradiation. Reduced optical retardation values were observed in the irradiated groups. The odontogenic region of maxillary incisors from irradiated rats exhibited altered and poorly organized preameloblasts. TEM showed degeneration areas in the secretory-stage EOECM and several autophagosomes in the secretory ameloblasts from irradiated animals. In conclusion, high radiation doses delay eruption and induce disturbances in secretory ameloblasts and EOECM of rat maxillary incisors. These findings may be associated with structural defects of mature enamel. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
