Fibroblastic reaction of chronical inflammation under the action of low-intensity y-radiation

On a model of carrageenan-induced chronic aseptic inflammation in rats it is shown, that low dose-rate g-radiation at small dose (0,1 Gy) leads to increase of fibroblast proliferation in the inflammatory focus, and produces considerable modification of intensity of maximal outbreak of blood serum chemiluminescence. Obtained data on stimulation of proliferation in the inflammatory focus with possible accumulation of DNA errors can indirectly point to probability ofoncogenous potential increase in the chronic inflammatory focus at low dose-rate g-irradiation, especially at low dose.
