Abstract

We have examined 36 liquidators (participants in emergency clean-up after the Chernobylnuclear accident) many years after the external γ-irradiation (on average (143.0 ± 14.0) mGy for (3.3 ± 0.8) months) and 13 workers of a typical research nuclear reactor, who were subject to chronic external γ-irradiation (on average (78.40 ± 12.21) mGy for (13.1 ± 2.2) years). The level of metabolites of lipid peroxidation (conjugated diene and triene conjugates of lipid hydroperoxides, TBA-reactive products) and the activity of catalase, superoxide dismutase, 5'-nucleotidase in blood serum were determined; changes in vessels of microcirculatory bloodstream (MCB) in skin-muscle bioptate were analyzed. Under the action of small doses of ionizing radiation, the oxidative disbalance and changes in activity of 5'-nucleotidase in blood serum сaccompanying the systematic inflammatory alteration of MCB vessels were found.

Highlights

  • Features of the oxidation processes and state of microcirculatory channel have persons exposed to low doses of ionizing radiation

  • We have examined 36 liquidators many years after the external γ-irradiation (on average (143.0 14.0) mGy for (3.3 0.8) months) and 13 workers of a typical research nuclear reactor, who were subject to chronic external γ-irradiation (on average (78.40 12.21) mGy for (13.1 2.2) years)

  • В группе ликвидаторов последствий аварии (ЛПА) на Чернобыльской АЭС (ЧАЭС) реже относительно пациентов группы сравнения и лиц контрольной группы выявлялись сосуды без изменений — у 4 (11,1%) против 13 (16,9%, χ2 = 14,01; р = 0,0002) и 9 (81,8%, χ2 = 17,67; р < 0,0001) соответственно; чаще регистрировался панваскулит выраженной степени — у 24 (66,7%) против 1 (4,8%, χ2 = 18,20; р < 0,0001) и 0 (0%, χ2 = 12,44; р = 0,0004) соответственно — при отсутствии различий в частоте пролиферативной васкулопатии и продуктивного васкулита минимальной степени

Summary

Introduction

Features of the oxidation processes and state of microcirculatory channel have persons exposed to low doses of ionizing radiation. Цель работы — оценить морфологическое состояние сосудов МЦР в кожно-мышечном биоптате, содержание продуктов ПОЛ, активность антиоксидантных ферментов и 5'НТ в сыворотке крови у ликвидаторов последствий аварии на ЧАЭС и профессиональных работников ядерного реактора.
