title: [The effect of recombinant interleukin-2 on the course of experimental staphylococcal peritonitis in mice].
abstract: The effect of RIL-2 on the survival of mice with S. aureus--induced peritonitis was studied. Animals received bacterial suspension and RIL-2 as following: bacteria--on days 0, +2, RIL-2--day 0 (group 1); bacteria--days 0, +4, RIL-2--days 0, +2 (group 2); bacteria--days 0, +6, RIL-2--days 0, +2, +4 (group 3). RIL-2 exerted no protective effect in group 1. However, in groups 2 and 3, where the control animals survival was, resp., 56% and 38%, the RIL-2 treatment increased survival up to, resp., 84% and 70%. Antibiotics given instead of RIL-2 in analogous regimen decreased the survival in group 3 to the level of 25%. Thus, RIL-2 proved to be a potent therapeutic agent in the 2nd of 3d studied models of S. aureus--induced peritonitis in mice. The perspectives of RIL-2 use in the treatment of bacterial peritonitis, including porous ones, and of the immunodepression--aggravated conditions are discussed.
