ABSTRACT
Using the model of lung fibrosis induced by intratracheal administration of bleomycin we studied anti-fibrotic activity of combined treatment with neuroleptic haloperidol and hyaluronidase immobilized on polyethylene oxide using electron-beam synthesis. It was shown that successive administration of immobilized hyaluronidase and the neuroleptic drug inhibits deposition of collagen fibers in the bleomycin-treated lungs. Combined treatment with the test compounds reduced swelling of the alveolar epithelium, exudation and infiltration of the alveolar interstitium and alveolar passages by inflammatory cells, and desquamation of alveolocytes into alveolar lumen, so that the alveolar-capillary membrane function was preserved.
