LYMPHOID ORGANS AND THEIR CELLS UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF INTERLEUKIN-2
The review of the current literature shows that interleukin-2 (IL-2) stimulates proliferation and functional activity of Т- and B-cells from central and peripheral lymphoid organs, as well as the macrophage functions. IL-2 influence is more expressed when it acts on the cells, activated previously; besides there is a possibility of the restoration of lymphoid organ functions which were previously suppressed as a result of influence of cytostatic drugs or ionizing radiation. On this activation of immune cells the application of IL-2 for treatment of inflammatory and oncologic processes is based. The realization of the further researches of a ratio of cell subpopulations in lymphoid organs with use of advanced achievements of immunohistochemical staining and modern methods of morphology is necessary in the time of treatment of various pathological processes by IL-2.
