title: Anticholinesterase mechanism as a factor of immunotoxicity of various chemical compounds.
abstract: Experiments on Wistar rats showed that acute poisoning with chemicals in a dose of 0.75 LD(50) (dimethyl dichlorovinyl phosphate, sarin, VX substance, sulfur yperite, lewisite, tetraethyl lead, dichloroethane) inhibiting platelet acetylcholine esterase, alpha-naphthyl-AS-acetate esterase, and alpha-naphthyl-butyrate esterase suppressed T cell-mediated immune reactions.
