[Morphofunctional description of protective cell reactions in aspergillosis].
Pathomorphosis of aspergillosis was studied in 160 male guinea pigs which were given intraperitoneally a small dose (50000 conidia per 1 ml of isotonic sodium chloride solution) of Aspergillus fumigatus. Protective cell reactions under condition of a normal immune resistance are described. Immunological and mycological methods allowed one to reveal a variability of morphological changes at early stages of aspergillosis and to follow the development of secondary immunodeficiency on the disease day 14.
