RESUMO
To explore the possibility to use the lens extract as an in vitro stimulator to conduct a test of stimulated leukergy in liquidators of the accident consequences (LAC) on Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant (CNPP) with a cataract in the long-term period. The study sample included 72 men-LAC on CNPP, at the age from 42 to 65 y, who have a cataract. The comparison group consisted of 60 men, with a cataract, of the same age, and who were not exposed to radiation. The control group was composed of 60 men, at the age of 42-58 y without lens pathology. Phenomenon of the stimulated leukergy was revealed in persons who had been exposed to radiation in the dose of 18.2 ± 0.58 cGy and was observed in 5.7-8.05 % (P < 0.001), suggesting a continued high auto-aggression to the lens antigens, and the strength of cell-mediated immunity.

In the article was considered main direction in investigation and methodological approach in the estimations of radiobioecological situation and condition health of population in the uranium-extraction regions of Kazakhstan. Elimination of consequences of uranium extraction in Kazakhstan is only possible with a broad scientific cooperation and combined resources and man-power from Kazakhstan, from former Soviet Union countries and from other countries.
