title: [The effect of irradiation at low doses on the survival of cells and their descendants].
abstract: We investigated the survival of HeLa cells subjected to acute and prolonged gamma irradiation and that of their descendants, as well as that of cells exposed in the accident zone around the Chernobyl' Nuclear Power Station. Radiation was shown to induce reproductive death in several (four) generations, as shown by the increased occurrence of of giant cells. The absolute effect increases with radiation dose.
