[Study of the functional status of a synthetic apparatus of blood lymphocytes under the action of weak low-frequency magnetic fields]. / Issledovanie funktsional'nogo sostoianiia sinteticheskogo apparata limfotsitov krovi pri deistvii slabykh nizkochastotnykh magnitnykh polei.

The functional state of the synthetic apparatus of animal blood lymphocytes under weak low-frequency magnetic fields was studied. The changes in blood cell synthetic activity and leukocyte formula, a signal index of general nonspecific adaptation reactions, were shown. In the majority of cases examined, the variable magnetic fields increase the functional activity of the lymphocyte synthetic apparatus, improve the type of adaptation reaction, and enhance the level of immune resistance of the organism.

It is shown that general nonspecific adaptational reactions are the basis for mechanism of magnetic field effects at the organism level. The character of changes in organism and its subsystems (pattern of a general nonspecific adaptational reactions) is determined by the type of the reaction developing under magnetic field: stress or unknown before antistress reactions of training, calm activation and enhanced activation. The protection and damages under stress are interwoven, homeostatic parameters go beyond norm. Patterns of antistress general nonspecific adaptational reactions are within norm: for training reaction-within the lower half, calm activation-upper half, enhanced activation-somewhat above norm. The induction and frequency dependence of the reactions is periodical: as the parameters are changed to a certain coefficient a regular reiteration of general nonspecific adaptational reactions as topologically invariant transformations is observed at different reactivity levels of organism. General nonspecific adaptational reactions of superior reactivity levels (under weak of magnetic fields of lowest frequency) are more favourable, general nonspecific adaptational reactions of low levels have features of strain, desynchronization. Antistress general nonspecific adaptational reactions, especially activation reaction of superior reactivity levels, enhance nonspecific resistance, in contrast to stress without any damages or waste of energy, produce antitumor, protective (in reference to toxic agents and X-radiation) and rejuvenation effects, promoting self-organization. Regularities of general nonspecific adaptational reactions correspond to complex unequilibrium systems behavior.

The results of fluorimetric spectral analysis of peripheral blood lymphocytes taken from patients with kidney tumors have suggested that data on the pattern of spectrum and particularly, parameter alpha--a ratio of one-spiral nucleinic acids to two-spiral ones in a cell--may be instrumental in assessing nonspecific resistance in cancer patients and prognosis. Also, these data may be used in working out strategies of treatment and, in particular, to reduce postoperative complications and side-effects of chemo- and radiation therapy. With high values of parameter alpha (0.16-0.4), activation reaction starts to counter stress, causing nonspecific resistance to increase. At lower values of the parameter (0.022-0.048), stress sits in, and nonspecific resistance level drops. Parameter alpha increases as a result of nonspecific activation therapy which leads to lower side-effects and fewer complications of postsurgical and chemoradiation treatment.

The morphofunctional state of lymphatic nodes, thyroid gland and testis have been studied with morphometric, cell photometric and biochemical methods in experiments on adult white rats under the influence of nonspecific adaptation stress and activation reactions caused by small doses of adrenaline (125 mg/kg and 5 mg/kg). The research showed that the changes in the structure and function of the lymphatic organs under stress and activation were markedly different. If stress results in depression of functional state of these organs, the activation reaction, on the contrary, stimulates it.

Weak electrical stimulation of emotiogenic brain structures was found to lead to the development of different general non-specific adaptation reactions. Stimulation of nucleus lateralis septi was found to evoke mainly the development of activation reaction, while stimulation of globus pallidum caused primarily the development of training reactions. Stress reactions were considerably less frequent in electrical stimulation of both kinds of structures than in the control. This can be explained by small values of the electrical current applied. Morphofunctional activity of thymus lymphatic system depended not only on the type of non-specific reaction but also on the character of the stimulated emotiogenic structure--the functional activity was higher with the stimulation of nucleus lateralis-septi. However, the functional activity of thymus lymphatic system in rats with globus pallidum stimulation was higher than in control rats that were not subject to any stimulation.

The thyroid status in adaptation reaction: stress and activation was studied in experiments on albino Wistar rats using morphometry and a luminescent spectral analysis. Thyroid function inhibition was obtained in stress manifesting itself in the presence of only one maximum with the wave length of 530 nm in the luminescence spectrum, low values of parameter alpha reflecting the ratio of one- and two-coil nucleic acids, a histogram of distribution with a shift to the left. Thyroid activity stimulation was detected during activation: the luminescence spectrum showed both maximums with the wave length of 530 and 640 nm, high values of parameter alpha; a histogram of distribution was almost symmetrical.

[Experimental use of antitumor preparations in low doses]. / O primenenii v éksperimente protivoopukholevykh preparatov v malykh dozakh.

The susceptibility of tumor tissue to therapeutic and smaller doses of chemotherapeutic drugs was assessed on the basis of SH-group inhibition in vitro. As therapeutic dose was decreased, rhythmic changes of tumor susceptibility were observed. In the experiments on tumor-bearing rats, the small dose of chemotherapeutic agent, which in preliminary in vitro experiments proved to be as effective as therapeutic one (1/5 therapeutic dose), was found to cause the same suppression of tumor growth. However, it did not induce leukopenia, lymphopenia, thymus involution or any other manifestations of stress which followed multiple injections of therapeutic doses. The white blood cell and thymus indices in rats, which received the small dose, suggest the development of reactions of training and activation which increase the nonspecific resistance of organism.

[Enhancement of antitumor resistance by means of small doses of adrenaline]. / O povyshenii protivoopukholevoi rezistentnosti s pomoshch'iu malykh doz adrenalina.

The antitumor effect of common nonspecific adaptation reactions of training and activation, obtained by small doses of adrenaline, was studied in the experiments on white rats with sarcoma 45,3,4-benz/a/-pyrene induced tumors and Biskind ovary tumor. Total resorption of the tumor was noted in all cases (55 rats), in which histological investigation of the thymus, lymph nodes, endocrinous glands and white cell count evidenced the development of the activation reaction, while with the training reaction there was only some retardation of tumor growth (51 rats). When it proved impossible to overcome a "chronic" tumor stress (45 rats), no antitumor effect was gained. Thus, the reactions of training and activation obtained by small doses of adrenaline (at high level of the organism reactivity) were found to increase the antitumor reaction of the organism.
