Abstract
The 22-day orbital flight of rats onboard the Cosmos-605 biosatellite was followed by inhibition of erythroblastosis, alteration in the morphology of megakaryocytes, and stimulation of myelopoiesis. These changes returned to normal 27 days postflight. The colony-forming capacity and pattern of differentiation of hemopoietic stem cells of bone marrow of flight rats remained undisturbed.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
