title: [The effect of UV irradiation and of UV-irradiated autologous blood on the functional state of human peripheral blood lymphocytes].
abstract: The effect of UV irradiation (UVI, 254 nm) and of UV-irradiated autologous blood on the spontaneous and mitogen-induced DNA-synthetic activity of intact lymphocytes has been studied. Lymphocytes were isolated from nonirradiated and irradiated blood, and from the mixture of UV-irradiated blood with the intact one in the volume ratio close to that in the blood stream during UV-irradiated blood autotransfusion (1:10, 1:40, 1:160). It has been shown that UVI of the whole blood caused in some donors the increase in spontaneous DNA synthesis, while in others the decrease or no statistically significant changes were observed. The analysis of the results obtained shows an inverse relation of the UVI effect to the initial level of spontaneous DNA synthesis (r = -0.68). In contrast to direct UVI effect, an addition of UV-irradiated blood to the autologous intact one resulted in an increase in spontaneous DNA synthesis in lymphocytes of all the samples examined. A 7-day cocultivation of lymphocytes, isolated from irradiated and nonirradiated blood samples, revealed a 1.8 times increase compared to the calculated value. The mitogen-induced DNA synthesis has a low sensitivity to UV rays, since the mitogens and the irradiation of optical range have presumably the common targets. It is assumed that photomodification of HLA-D/DR antigens can be a trigger mechanism for activation of immunocompetent cells by UVI.
