THE REACTION OF THE CORNEAL EPITHELIUM TO LOCAL IRRADIATION WITH VARIOUS DOSES OF SOFT X-RAYS

;
An inquiry was made into the changes occurring in the cornral epithulium of albino mice following soft x irradiation in doses of 100, 700, and 2000 r. These x ray doses depressed the mitotic activity, caused the appearance of pathological mitosis and reduction of the number of cells per unit of corneal area. The affection of the mitotic apparatus, underlying pathological mitosis, blocked irreversibly the passing of the cell through mitotic stages. Of the doses investigated only 2000 r caused a direct radiation destruction of the cell. (auth)
