Popis: We studied the relationship between the level of cytokines in the lymph of the thoracic duct and the morphometric parameters of the mesenteric lymph nodes after surgical treatment of breast cancer, chemotherapy, and administration of fragmented (double-stranded, dsDNA) human DNA. In comparison with surgical treatment and with chemotherapy alone, administration of a human dsDNA has a stimulating effect on the T-cell link of the immune response. In the paracortical zone, the relationship between the chemokine MCP-1 and increased content of small lymphocytes in this zone was revealed. Interrelations of IL-2 cytokines with small lymphocytes and of IL-4 with medium lymphocytes were revealed in germinal centers. We also observed interrelations of IL-7 with small lymphocytes and IL-4 with macrophages in the medullary cords, chemokine MIP-1α with immature and mature plasma cells (the number of these cells is reduced), and of MCP-1 with immunoblasts (the number of which is also reduced) in the medullary sinuses.
