| Abstract: | It has been shown that per os introduction of sunflower oil and starch to adult thymectomized mice resulted in reconstitution of the number of Thy-I+ spleen cells similar of the glutamic acid effect. Glutamic acid restored the immune response to sheep red blood cells (SRBC), however, sunflower oil and starch were not effective. The influence of these compounds on the immune response to SRBC in normal and sham-thymectomized mice was different: glutamic acid stimulated it, starch had no influence on the immune response, sunflower oil suppressed it. |
