title: [An experimental approach to determining the protective properties of drugs against ionizing radiation in low and sublethal doses].
abstract: In experiments with mice, the efficiency of radioprotective agents against acute gamma-irradiation with nonlethal and low doses (0.5-4 Gy) was estimated by nine parameters. The treatment with cystamine, cysteamine and riboxine prior to irradiation (< 2 Gy) did not influence the postirradiation values of the parameters under study. With a dose of up to 4 Gy, the effect of riboxine was noted. The determinations of the number of aberrant mitoses, cellularity and mitotic activity of the bone marrow have proved to be most informative. The data obtained are discussed with due regard for the specific effect of low-level radiation and mechanisms of the protective action of the agents under study.
