The effect of enzymatic hydrolysate of lymphoid tissue of broiler chickens on the morphofunctional state of macrophages

Abstract

The goal of studying the mechanisms of action of cells that structure the immune system is to obtain additional data about the influence of immunomodulating peptides of natural origin on the possibility of regulating immune processes. The effect of enzymatic hydrolysate of lymphoid tissue of broiler chickens (EHLTBC) on the viability of culture of peritoneal and alveolar macrophages, on the morphological characteristics and functional activity of macrophages has been studied. The effect of EHLTBC on the viability of culture of peritoneal and alveolar macrophages has been investigated. Morphometric characteristics of macrophages under the influence of EHLTBC have been given. The functional activity of peritoneal and alveolar macrophages has been assessed against the background of the introduction of EHLTBC. Enzymatic hydrolysate of lymphoid tissue of broiler chickens at concentrations of 1, 5 and 10 % does not have a toxic effect on the culture of alveolar and peritoneal macrophages. EHLTBC enhances the phagocytic activity of peritoneal macrophages, which enhances their role in the chemotaxis and immune response. The stimulating effect of EHLTBC of poultry on the ability of macrophages to adhere has been revealed.
