[Effect of rifampicin on body immunological reactivity].

The studies with 60 guinea pigs and 111 albino mice showed that the daily use of rifampicin for a prolonged period of time in an oral dose of 30 mg/kg for the guinea pigs and 20 mg/kg for the mice had a pronounced effect on the immunological reactivity of the host. The use of rifampicin for 3 months resulted in changed in the structure of the lymphoid organs and suppression of T-lymphocytes. It had an inhibitory effect on the development of the anaphylactic shock in response to the resolution dose of the foreign serum. The preliminary treatment of the mice with rifampicin for 2 months lowered the primary and to a greater extent the secondary immune response induced by the sheep red blood cells.

[Effect of splenin on the development of tuberculin shock and Bordet's phenomenon in guinea pigs].

Effect of preinjection of splenin to tuberculosis-infected guinea-pigs on the development of tuberculin shock and Bordet's phenomenon was examined. In animals exposed to tuberculin shock, splenin was found to increase blast transformation of lymphocytes in response to tuberculin, as well as the degree of the proliferative reactions in lymphoid organs. It was also demonstrated that administration of splenin led to the reduction of the complement titer and the foci of tuberculosis in the organs. In guinea-pigs with the induced Bordet's phenomenon, splenin exerted no beneficial immunomodulating effect, promoting the development of more severe tuberculous lesions in the internal organs.
