Abstract

The studies investigated ultrastructural and biochemical characteristics of cells, cellular and noncellular structures of white rats renal cortex, liver and blood tissues in experimental conditions. It was established that the despite cytoplasm being provided by endogenous aqua and ATP under the multiple influence of small-doses irradiation, the structural and functional elements of eukaryotic cells proliferation process, which is associated with the telomeres activity, are damaged.
