The action of submillimeter laser irradiation (5 lines, diapason from 80 to 420 m m) on morphological patterns of the regenerative neuron in vitro was studied. It is first found that Tera-hertz waves act on adhesion to dishes and on abnormal transformations of the morphogenetic structures of cells.

Third instar larval of Drosophila melanogaster with genotype mwh flr+ /mwh+ flr3 were irradiated for an hour with a submillimeter laser (beam diameter 8 mm, wavelength 81,5 m m, specific power 40 mW/cm2 ). In a tentative experiment a decrease in frequency of small single mutant spots characteristic of spontaneous mutations was observed.
