[The use of EPR spectroscopy to control the changes of organism radiosensitivity/radioresistance. Experimental and clinical results].

The responses of deoxyribonucleotide (dNTP), DNA and protein synthesis systems in blood-forming organs of animals (dogs, mice) as well as changes in Fe(3+)-transferrin (Fe(3+)-TF) and Cu(2+)-ceruloplasmin (Cu(2+)-CP) pools in blood to gamma-irradiation and the administration of radioprotectors have been studied. It has been shown that changes in Fe(3+)-TF and Cu(2+)-CP pools in blood are indices of changes in the body radioresistance and are reliably controlled by the EPR technique. An increase in the Fe(3+)-TF pool promotes the activated synthesis of dNTP, DNA and Fe(3+)-containing proteins which are essential for the repair efficiency during the early post-irradiation time as well as for the development of compensatory and restorative reactions of cellular systems; i.

[Clinical immunological disorders in children from various observation cohorts exposed to radiation factor during various stages of oncogenesis].

The immune status disorders and features depending on the radiation impact type in various cohorts of radiation observations long after the Chernobyl (CNPP) disaster and the possible role of these disorders in development of chronic somatic pathology in children are shown. Lymphocyte depletion, T-cell immunity component disorders in the form of cell contraction with CD3, CD4, CD8 markers and the B-cell immunity component disorders in the form of reducing the quantity of CD10, CD23 marker cells were observed in children subject to combined chronic irradiation by 131I, 137Cs, 90Sr radionuclides. The descendants of irradiated parents (the 1st generation; children of the Chernobyl accident consequences liquidators, children of the citizens of radiation contaminated territories with various 137Cs levels) had immunity disorders of different type.

[The use of EPR spectroscopy to control the changes in organism radioresistance. Clinical results].

It has been shown that changes in Fe(3+)-transferrin and Cu(2+)-ceruloplasmin pools, which are trust-worthy controlled by the EPR technique in whole blood, blood plasma, and serum, as well as changes in the extracellular DNA content in blood plasma are markers of changes in organism radioresistance. This has been proved during the medical examination of the Chernobyl accident recovery workers and civil population, including children, exposed to low-intensity radiation, as well as during clinical investigation of new radioprotectors.

[The problem of the transgeneration phenomenon of genome instability in sick children of different age groups after the accident at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant].

A complex genetic examination of children which belong to two cohorts and their parents were carried out. The first cohort included children and constantly living on territories contaminated with radionuclides (Novozybkov district, Bryansk region). They were subdivided in groups according to the ontogenetic age periods of development of their parents at the time of the Chernobyl accident.

[The organization of medical aid to children of various cohorts of supervision, undergone to the influence of small dozes of radiation].

In clause the stages of organization of medical aid to children who undergone to the influence of the ecopathologic factors, including small dozes of ionizing radiation are submitted. The features of various stages of medical aid in nearest time after influence of the radiating agent are shown. The methodological complexities of diagnostic measures in the late times after the ecopathologic influence of small dozes of ionizing radiation are submitted, the role of the radiosensitivity in formation of pathological somatic diseases of condition at children is considered.
