Abstract
Experiments demonstrate the stimulation of transforming growth factor-β expression in porcine skin soon after ψ-irradiation in a dose of 64 Gy and in mouse macrophages after whole body irradiation in a dose of 4 Gy, which suggests the involvement of macrophages that produce transforming growth factor-β during the early postirradiation period in the development of postirradiation fibrosis.
