A) Assessment of acute large bowel damage. CD1-nude mice treated with mock treatment or PAN (10 mg/kg) +/-IR. Lesions were scored semi-quantitatively using a 0-5 scale where 0 is no lesion present to 5 where the entire organ was affected by the pathology. B) Assessment of damage to intestine and bladder at 12 weeks. P=lesion present; scoring is semi-quantitative. Cage 2 mouse 1 was culled 2 days after being irradiated in error without the collimator present and cage 2 mouse 5 became unwell 7.5 weeks post-treatment and was culled, but no histopathological effects of the treatment were observed in the bowel. Cage 4 mouse 4 developed moderate diffuse ulcerative colitis. Amyloid was present in the small intestine of animals from all groups including the control group and is considered a pre-existing spontaneous lesion not related to the experimental protocol. Lesions were scored semi-quantitatively using a 0-5 scale where 0 is no lesion present to 5 where the entire organ was affected by the pathology.
