Popis: Effect of glucocorticoids on proliferation, death and migration of T-lymphocytes was studied by mathematical methods. A model of the interaction between hormone and thymus T1-lymphocytes is proposed which imitates involution of lymphoid tissue under stress. There were constructed models of migrations of free and radioactive chromium labeled lymphocytes in lymphoid and non-lymphoid organs, blood and lymph at arbitrary concentration of glucocorticoids in the blood. Possible mechanisms of immunodepression due to increased hormone concentrations in the organism are discussed.
