[Histogenetic, metabolic, and immunologic aspects of the effect of infrared laser radiation on injured skeletal muscles from irradiated and nonirradiated rats].
Using biochemical, histological, morphometric and cytogenetic methods, it was shown that low-intensive infrared laser radiation (total dose 3.6 J/cm2), applied to the injured rat skeletal muscles, stimulated metabolism and regeneration more efficiently in the muscles locally exposed to 20 Gy X-rays compared to the unexposed muscles. The laser irradiation promoted postradiative recovery in bone marrow cells, but did not provide normalization in thymus lymphocyte activity.
