Immunoactive Properties of Cerebrolysin.
In children (aged 3-8 years old) with minimal cerebral dysfunction the immune status was studied before and after cerebrolysin administration in the dosage of 1 ml per 10 kg of child's weight, intramuscularly, within one month. The cerebrolysin administration resulted in an increase in the level of CD19(+) cells with a simultaneous normalization of serum IgG and IgA levels. The count of CD4(+) lymphocytes has risen. Normalization of a relative count of CD16(+) cells (NK) was noted after cerebrolysin therapy. Expression of activation markers (CD25 and HLA DR) in total population of lymphocytes parallelly changed, achieving the parameters of the control group without any changes in expression of CD95 molecule. Under the cerebrolysin influence the activation mainly of T helpers could be observed in vitro.
