Antimutagenic Effect of Afobazole on Blood Leukocytes in Individuals with Reproductive Dysfunction under Conditions of Anthropogenic Load

详细

Increased frequency of cells with chromosomal aberrations was revealed in 48-h cultures of peripheral blood lymphocytes isolated North Ossetia residents with impaired reproductive function. After 2-week treatment with antimutagenic drug Afobazole, the percentage of cells with chromosomal aberrations significantly decreased from 3.77±0.20 to 2.48±0.24% (p<0.001). Significant differences between chromosome damage levels before and after administration of the drug suggest that Afobazole could be recommended for protective purposes to this group of patients.
