[CYTOKINES SECRETION BY SPLENOCY-TES IN RESPONSE TO MICE F1 (C57BL/6XDBA/2) BEHAVIOR IN ENVIRONMENTS OF VARYING COMPLEXITY].

Abstract

We study the dependence of the mitogen-induced cytokine secretion by splenocytes from the character of the behavior of F1 (C57BL/6XDBA/2) mice in environments with different degrees of spatial complexity: simple in the form of home box, enriched box and maze. Suppression of in-terleukins IL-2, IL-4, IL-6 and IL-10 expression, regardless of their structural and functional properties, was observed only in an enriched environment when aggressive and neurotic manifestations were increased. The opposite effect in the form of significant increase of the productions in all studied cytokines was observed in the case of the stereotypical goal-directed behavior in a maze. It was supposed that cytokines of the splenocytes are involved in the realization of highly 307 differentiated adaptive response of the organism due to the influence of social and cognitive factors, the expression of which depends on the specific physiological and biochemical systems.
