STUDY OF EMBRYONIC STEM CELL TRANSPLANTATION INFLUENCE ON RAT BEHAVIOUR AFTER IRRADIATION EXPOSURE
The article is dedicated to the study of grooming and general motor activity in rats at acute or chronic gamma-irradiation exposure followed by embryonic stem cell injection. Both modes of ionizing irradiation exposure lead to the significant grooming decrease while the general motor activity was increased. Transplantation correction of the neuro-immune-endocrine system status restored the baseline level of the studied behavioural parameters in the majority of experimental animals.
