title: [Change in the activity of specific and nonspecific immunity mechanisms in vitamin B1 deficiency].
abstract: The effect of thiamin deficiency on the immune response and activity of some mechanisms of natural immunity was studied in experimental mature rats. Thiamin deficiency was simulated by a single injection of hydroxythiamin (thiamin antagonists). Hydroxythiamin markedly decreased the complement activity, phagocytic activity of peripheral blood leucocytes, serum bactericidal activity as well as antibody production in response to sheep red blood cells. On the contrary, lysozyme activity increased. Vitamin B1 deficiency reduced 14C-leucine incorporation activity in the liver proteins.
