Abstract:
The work is devoted to the research of immune mechanisms in self-control of various functional systems of homeostatic and behavioral levels. Distinction of immune mechanisms in rats with different prognostic stress-resistance is established. Immunization of rats by conjugates of various neuromediators with bovine serum albumin selectively changes the animals stress-resistance. Participation cytokines in reactions of a brain's separate neurons and their interaction with a leading neuromediator - norepinephrine is established. Individual changes of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines in blood serum are shown in rats with different stress-resistance. There are revealed features of morphological distinctions of immunogenic structures small intestine fabrics in animals with various behavioral activity in the "Open field" test.

Special Features of Adaptive Immunity
The primary cell types involved in adaptive immunity are T cells and B cells. Each type has a unique role in defending the body against pathogens. T cells are responsible for cell-mediated immunity. They identify and eliminate infected cells directly,...
Secondary Lymphoid Organs
The spleen is a vital organ in the lymphatic system, nestled in the upper left side of the abdomen. It is composed of two primary regions: the red pulp and the white pulp, each having distinct functions. The red pulp performs a significant role in blood filtration. It efficiently purges the blood of old or damaged red blood cells and...
Introduction to Innate and Adaptive Immunity
Innate immunity is the body's natural, nonspecific defense system that acts quickly to protect against pathogens. It incorporates physical barriers like skin and mucous membranes and cellular elements such as phagocytes and natural killer cells. This part of our immune system provides an immediate,...
