Popis: Resistance to the lethal doses of the infectious agent (3 DL100) develops in mice 6 days after the intraperitoneal non-lethal dose of staphylococcus in combination with recombinant interleukin-2 (RIL-2). This effect may be due to the activation of T- and B-dependent zones of the regional lymph nodes and spleen, activation and proliferation of the liver stellate reticulo-endotheliocytes, enhancement of the phagocytic activity of the circulating neutrophil granulocytes. These structural and functional mechanisms may be due to both direct RIL-2 effect in combination with an antigenic stimulation and indirect effect through other interleukins produced by lymphocytes activated by RIL-2.
