title: [Gamma- and UV-induced DNA synthesis in neurons of the rat neocortex].
abstract: Nuclear DNA synthesis in neocortex neurons of neonatal 14- and 60-day rats after in vitro irradiation of isolated sections was estimated by the incorporation of a labeled precursor into DNA. gamma- and UV-radiation increased the rate of DNA synthesis in the cells of animals of all studied age groups. However, the level of the UV-induced synthesis sharply dropped during the postnatal ontogenesis while gamma-radiation-induced synthesis decreased slightly. The peculiarities revealed in the repair DNA synthesis seem to be influenced by the process of postnatal differentiation of a neuron accompanied by the nucleosome length shortening and the decrease in the DNA-polymerase alpha content.
