Desoxycytidylic or thymidylic acid was administered to mice irradiatad with a dose of 500 to 600 r. After administration of these desoxymcleotides an increase in mitotic activity was observed in the bone marrow, togather with stimulation of regeneration. The least mature cell forms in the bone marrow reacied most promptly to the administration of thymidylic acid by proliferation. After the adminiatration of the deaoxyribonucleotide, rather More chromosomal aberrations were found than in the irradiated control. Irradiation significantly lowered the prophase to metaphase raiio. This ratio returned io normal 4 to 10 days after irradiation. recovery being significantly more rapid after the administration of the desoxynucleotide than in the irradiated control. (auth)
