Biorhythms of functional activity of phagocytes in iron deficiency.
Biorhythms of absorption capacity of neutrophils and monocytes were studied in women with latent iron deficiency. We revealed disorders in circadian organization of the mononuclear phagocyte system and decreased reserve capacity of nonspecific organism's resistance against the background of tissue iron deficiency. Informative value of desynchronosis in circadian structure of the phagocyte absorption capacity as the early marker of prelatent iron deficiency was established.
