Irradiation causes an increase in serum and plasma level of thromboxane in rabbits and an increase in thromboxane synthesis in blood platelets stimulated by thrombin. Thromboxane release from thoracic aorta is also increased upon irradiation of animals. H2O2 which stimulates thromboxane release from thoracic control aorta is without effect in the irradiated one.
