[The protective action of interferon type I in experimental Salmonella infection]
Abstract:
The effect of interferon, type 1, on the course of Salmonella infection in mice has been studied. The study has shown that the injection of homologous interferon of type 1 leads to the rapid elimination of the infective agent from the blood and organs of infected mice. Morphological study has shown that the injection of the preparations of interferon of type 1 may diminish pathological changes in the organs of the infected animals and the coagulation system of their blood.

NK Cells
NK cells are a crucial part of our innate immune system, acting as the first line of defense against viral infections. These cells can recognize and kill infected cells without prior exposure to the virus, effectively slowing down the spread of infection. Additionally, NK cells produce proinflammatory...
