Abstract

In hybrid mice it was shown that the local irradiation of zones of thymus, hypothalamus-hypophysis (0.5, 1 and 10 Gy in both cases) and gonads (10 Gy) resulted in significant increase in weight at long terms after irradiation. In animals with increased weight the amount of lipids raised, balance of hormones and state of thymus-dependent unit of immune system changed, and exterior symptoms of early aging were observed. After irradiation of spleen and thigh muscles (10 Gy in both cases) all indices at the same period corresponded to age control.
