We have studied the ionized gas and stellar kinematics in several galaxies with active nuclei and elongated radio structures using 3D spectroscopy. The observations were performed at the SAO RAS 6-m telescope with the integral-field spectrograph MPFS (Afanasiev et al. 2001) and with a scanning Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) in the multimode device SCORPIO (Afanasiev & Moiseev 2005). Based on these data the intensity maps and velocity fields in the different emission lines of the ionizing gas were constructed. Using the lines-ratio diagrams we tried to search a source of the gas ionization: an active nucleus, hot young stars or shock waves.
