HUMANIZED MODEL OF ISOLATED SUSPENSION CULTIVATION OF HEMATOPOIETIC PROGENITOR CELLS FOR THE INVESTIGATION OF IONIZING RADIATION INFLUENCE IN VIVO.

The ability of hematopoietic progenitor cells of bone marrow to form colonies and clusters was eval-uated during the cultivation in semi-solid agar in gel diffusion chambers in vivo, as well as the association with thenumber of explanted cells in the appropriate range was established, which indicates the clonal nature of cell aggre-gates growth in culture. It was shown that the treatment of animals the day prior to experiment with administra-tion of cytostatics is comparable to the action of ionizing radiation and can be used to study hematopoiesis in«human-mouse» system.
