[Postradiation changes of active ion transport systems of the CNS. The effect of superlethal doses of ionizing radiation on the Na,K pump in surviving brain slices].

Active potassium ion transport in surviving sections of rat brain was irreversibly inhibited 6 min, 1 h and 6 h following whole-body single X irradiation. At the same time, the accumulation of products of lipid peroxidation and phospholipase hydrolysis was followed up during the development of radiation pathology. The relationship was noted between the postirradiation changes in the physicochemical status of lipids of the membrane and the impairment of its transport function.
