Modulation of immunological reactivity in the course of allergic encephalomyelitis by isoprinosine.
It was observed that in the course of allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) in chickens. Isoprinosine reduced the production of the specific IgA and IgM antibodies against encephalic antigen. Its influence on IgG production was slight. It was also found that isoprinosine reduced the antitrypsine activity in EAE. Its effect upon the level of antibodies and biochemical indices of inflammation was particularly pronounced on days 28-35 after immunization, i.e. at the time of the most intensive microscopic inflammatory changes in the brain. Histological analysis revealed an inhibition of plasmatic cells reproduction in the spleens of chickens receiving isoprinosine. No effect of the drug on the GvH reaction in chickens was found.
