  • Title: [Erythron system function in adults subjected to radiation exposure as a result of the Chernobyl accident].
    Author: Bil'ko NM, Starodub NF, Bebeshko VG, Ternovoĭ KS.
    Journal: Tsitol Genet; 1996; 30(4):55-62. PubMed ID: 9005638.
    Abstract:
    The morphofunctional state of hemopoiesis in patients who suffered from the Chernobyl accident was investigated. The activation of proliferative activity of erythroid progenitor cells simultaneously with a decrease in the resistance of erythrocytes and an increase in the levels of methemoglobin, HbF, and an increase in the number of HbF-containing cells in peripheral blood were detected. Main trends in the development of adaptative processes in the erythron system as a response to affect of low doses of radiation were determined on cellular and molecular levels.
