[Correlation between genome mutations and the cell division types in immunological sensitization states]

The authors examined the frequency of cells with polyploidy-P, with amitot division-AD and with mitotic division-MD in 25 patients with schizophrenia and proven anticerebral autoimmune sensibilization by means of blast-transformation test-BS, in 20 partners of marriages with multiple spontaneous abortions and suspected isoimmunization-PCA as well as control group of 63 healthy adults and newborn infants. Simultaneous increase of the frequency of cells with polyploidy and amitotic division was established in patients with schizophrenia--1,16% of P and 0.40% AD in 4 women with spontaneous abortiosn -- 1.5% of P and 0.80% of AD compared with the control values of 0.54% of P and 0.17% of AD. The highest percentage P -- 1.12 and AD -- 2.1 was found in BS with chronic process, in whom the blast-transformation reaction to brain antigen --34% was mostly manifested. In the cultures of BS, treated with brain antigen, AD reached up to 1.38%. The increase of AD was accompanied with lowering of mitotic index: BS -- 1.2% of MD and 0.40 of AD; PSA -- 2,04% of MD and 0.50 of AD compared with the control values of 4% of MD and 0.17% of AD. The results showed that immunologic sensibilization was accompanied by an increase of genome mutations and amitotic division and with lowering of mitotic index; they revealed polyploidy and amitotic division as compensatory mechanisms of the organisms under certain conditions.
