[Post-radiation communicative induction of blood and immunity disorders].
Intact rats and mice were kept in one cage with irradiated rats and mice. Measurements of leukocyte and nuclear neutrophils counts in the peripheral blood, weight of the thymus and immune reactivity int he intact animals indicated that 1-2 weeks of sharing cage with irradiated animals produced a fall in the above values compared to those of the controls. This seems to be a reaction to changed behavior of the irradiated animals. The intact ones experienced anxiety which may provoke the above disorders.
