title: [Changes in the functional activity and kinetics of macrophages and lymphocytes as affected by retinoic acid].
abstract: The influence of water-soluble compound of retinoic acid on the ability of human blood cell precursors to transform into macrophages, phagocytic macrophage activity, proliferation and marker properties of lymphocytes and the condition of erythrocytes was studied. It was found that retinoic acid caused erythrocyte damages, induced the ability of precursor cells to transforms into macrophages, did not increase significantly their functional activity and facilitated the formation of granulocyte-lymphocyte-macrophage aggregates. In the absence of macrophages, the action of retinoic acid was followed by the decrease in the expressivity of precursor cells to transform into macrophages, did by the suppression of their proliferative activity.
