In this task, you are given a passage which has a question and the context. You have to generate an answer to the question based on the information present in the context.

Context: Radiation induces an important apoptosis response in irradiated organs. The objective of this study was to investigate the radioprotective effect of tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) on irradiated lymphocytes and discover the possible mechanism of protection.', 'Lymphocytes were pretreated for 12 h with TMP (25-200 molL(-1)) and then exposed to 4 Gy radiation. Cell apoptosis and the signaling pathway were analyzed.', 'Irradiation increased cell death, DNA fragmentation, activated caspase activation and cytochrome c translocation, downregulated B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) and up-regulated Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax). Pretreated with TMP significantly reversed this tendency. Several anti-apoptotic characteristics of TMP, including the ability to increase cell viability, inhibit caspase-9 activation, and upregulate Bcl-2 and down-regulate Bax in 4Gy-irradiated lymphocytes were determined. Signal pathway analysis showed TMP could translate nuclear factor-B (NF-B) from cytosol into the nucleus.\Question: Does tetramethylpyrazine protect lymphocytes from radiation-induced apoptosis through nuclear factor-B?
The results suggest that TMP had a radioprotective effect through the NF-B pathway to inhibit apoptosis, and it may be an effective candidate for treating radiation diseases associated with cell apoptosis.
