It is shown that external as well as incorporated radiation inhibit the endocrine function of the thymus in the result of the direct and indirect effects. Postradiation deficiency of thymic hormones plays a significant role in pathogenesis of functional disorders in the immunity system. Immunocorrection with thymic agents is the most effective method when the mechanism of inhibition of thymic hormonal function are taken into account.
结果表明，外部辐射以及体内辐射通过直接和间接作用抑制胸腺的内分泌功能。辐射后胸腺激素缺乏在免疫系统功能紊乱的发病机制中起重要作用。考虑到胸腺激素功能抑制机制时，用胸腺制剂进行免疫纠正最为有效。
