Zusammenfassung:This project is attempting to develop practical drugs which would be able to protect the central nervous systems from acute functional injury produced by ionizing radiation. By 'practical' is meant drugs which could be self administered and which do not, by themselves, alter the functional capacity of the central nervouse system. Assays are being developed which allow quantitation of functional injury and preliminary identification of appropriate candidate drugs is underway. Keywords: radioprotection; radioprotective agents; WR-2721.
