[The modification of radiation-induced immune response].
In the overview it is shown that immune response to ionizing radiation exposure is determined not only by dose and dose rate, as was believed earlier, but also by a complex of factors (individual's age at exposure, genetic status, etc.). The emphasis in the overview is made on analyses of factors of endogenous (antioxidants, cytokines, peptides, etc.) and exogenous nature which are capable of modifying immune response following radiation exposure.
