title: [The radioprotective properties of nitric oxide (NO) donors].
abstract: In harmony withnumerous literary data, endo- and exogenic nitric oxide plays an important role in regulation of cell and organism resistance to damage factors of various nature including ionizing radiation. The experiments with mice and rats have shown that some potential NO-donors among drugs can manifest both prophylactic and treatment radioprotective activity. Sidnopharm has been patented as a new remedy in the early therapy of acute radiation injury.
