[Na+, K+-ATPase activity in erythrocytes after the effect of laser radiation]

An in vitro single radiation of helium-neon laser (power flux density being 2 mW/cm2 exposure--1 and 3 min) does not change the concentration of Na+ and K+, activity of Na+, K+-dependent ATPase in erythrocytes and does not affect the intensity of active Na transport through their membrane in the donor blood. The 5 min laser action decreases the level of K+ and increases that of Na+ in the erythrocytes, activates Na+, K+-ATPases and intensifies the active Na+ transport.
