Spontaneous and induced chemiluminescence of rat blood plasma following irradiation of the animals with fast neurons was studied. Dynamics of the luminescence reflected the degree of radiation injury and an oscillatory response of blood chemiluminescent effect was observed.
The authors report the results of studies on antitumor, immunostimulating and interieron-inducing properties of diethylamine fluorene derivative--tiloron, synthesized at Odessa laboratories of IGIC of the Ukrainian SSR Academy of Sciences by the originally elaborated method. It was found that tiloron does not suppress leucopoiesis, stimulates a number of protective reactions of the organism, including the factors of humoral and cell immunity, especially manifested under immunosuppression. Tiloron is shown to possess the definite antitumor activity being retained in peroral administration of the drug. Tiloron used together with cytostatic agents results in enhanced suppression of experimental tumors growth. Antitumor and immunostimulating action of tiloron on the experimental patterns under study is believed by the authors to be somewhat related with its interieron-inducing ability.
Infection of mice with A/Hong Kong/1/68 (H3N2) and A/PR8/34 (H0N1) influenza virus strains resulted in a significant inhibition of the formation of antibody-producing cells in response to administration of sheep erythrocytes and a reduced capacity of spleen cells to induce "graft-versus-host" reaction. The immunosuppression caused by influenza infection was observed for a long period of time post infection (3--6 months). The extent of inhibition of antibody production depended on the dose of virus, route of inoculation, the sequence of infection and immunization and the internal between them. Heat-inactivated virus exerted no immunosuppressive effect.
