[The role of activation of polymorphic nuclear leukocytes in the development of experimental uveitis]

Increase in functional activity of blood polymorphonuclear leukocytes and in the rate of lipid peroxidation in eye tissues was found in rabbits with experimental uveitis. preadministration of antioxidants pipolphen and ionol led to considerable improvement of the uveitis clinics, to inhibition of lipid peroxidation in eye tissues and to decrease of the leukocytes in circulation.
