[Karyometric characteristics of the rat sensorimotor cortex in non-uniform gamma irradiation].
Neurocyte nuclei increase in volume without structural changes in karyoplasm at early times after gamma-irradiation of rat head with doses of 50 to 100 Gy. Irradiation of 200 Gy causes a diminution of the nuclei volume while at a dose of 400 Gy the nuclei do not change their volume. A dose as high as 1000 Gy causes severe changes in the karyoplasm leading to nucleus swelling. At later times (24-72 h), the increase in the nuclei volume is associated with the changes in the karyoplasm structure. At one and the same dose, radiation causes either a decrease (irradiation of the head) or increase (exposure of the body) in the neurocyte nuclei volume. At early times after wholebody uniform irradiation no karyometric changes are detected. The nucleus swelling is more pronounced at lower dose-rates.
