EFFECT OF RADIATION ON SURVIVAL AND NEUROCHEMICAL CORRELATES IN RATS
Keywords:
Radiation, White and black rats, Biogenic aminesAbstract
We can state that, contrary to the expected, white rats are more sensitive to radiation than black ones. This is most likely related to the general metabolic status of black rats. In white rats, the specific spectrum of the content and distribution of biogenic amines in various structures of the brain, thiols and other biologically active substances involved in the determination of individual radio-resistance is low. The revealed facts can, to a certain extent, be explained within the framework of the serotonin deficiency concept of the genesis of radio sensitivity.
