Abstract excerpt
The paper deals with a history of radiobiological investigations carried out at the Center since 1925 which have contributed to the present-day conception on the influence of damaged DNA on stochastic (carcinogenesis) and non-stochastic (accelerated aging) late radiation pathology in exposed biological objects. A phenomenological and pathogenetic similarity of somatic (in irradiated organisms) and genetic (in...
