[Relation of atherogenesis and T-immunodeficiency]
Abstract:
Experiments on rabbits have shown that state of T-immunodeficiency induced by persisting virus infection promotes atherogenesis. Correction of age immunodeficiency by transplantation of the autologous bone marrow taken in young age considerably retards the atherosclerosis development. Inhibition of atherogenesis is also achieved by introduction (to animals) of natural thymic vilosene preparation which compensates a decrease in the functional activity of the thymus gland occurring under conditions of experimental hyperlipidemia.
