Early Response of Mouse Bone Mrrow Cells to Short-Term Irradiation in a Wide Range of Doses.

Experiments on mice irradiated with γ-rays in a wide range of doses, from 0.5 to 400 cGy and the bone marrow have shown cytogenetic and cytological effects ranging from I cGy dose 24 hours after exposure to radiation. Dose-independent reduction of the number of nucleated cells in the bone marrow, normal or even elevated levels of mitotic activity, and extreme dependence of the type of chromosomal aberrations on the radiation dose with the maximum in the region of 7.

Mechanisms of damaging mice bone marrow cells by 1.5 MeV neutrons at the dose of 25-250 cGy, dose rate of 23.9 cGy/s and γ-quants ⁶⁰Co as a standard radiation were studied.

The experiments were performed with outbred CD-1 male mice (SPF category). Total irradiation at 1.0; 2.

[CYSTEAMINE-INDUCED MODIFICATION OF CYTOGENETIC DAMAGES TO THE CORNEAL EPITHELIUM OF MICE EXPOSED TO CORPUSCULAR RADIATION WITH VARYING LINEAR TRANSFER ENERGIES].

Cytogenetic damages to cells of the corneal epithelium were studied in mice exposed to protons (10, 25, 50 and 645 MeV), ions of boron, carbon and neon, and X-rays (180 keV) within the dose range from 25 to 750 cGy and injected with a radioprotector. Animals were subjected to a single exposure. The protective effect of β-mercaptoethylamine was tested in the experiment.

Damages to corneal epithelium cells were studied in mice irradiated by protons with the energies of 10, 25, 50 and 645 MeV, 60Co γ-quanta and accelerated ions of boron, carbon and neon with the energies of 7.5; 2.5 and 6.
