Chronic exposure to ionizing radiation disrupts hematopoiesis in rats, indicating radiation's detrimental effects on bone marrow function.

To evaluate the impact of chronic gamma-irradiation on bone marrow cells and hematopoietic functions.
Chronic exposure of rats to 500 cGy gamma-irradiation for 33 days
Assessment of cellular composition and functional characteristics of bone marrow-derived cells
Comparison to a control group kept under standard conditions
Decreased bone marrow cellularity observed post-irradiation
Increased adipogenic differentiation in stromal progenitor cells
Reduced numbers of hematopoietic colonies except for CFU-GM
Increased production of cytokines that inhibit HSPC proliferation and activate differentiation

E. A. Markina (2025) studied this question.
