THE IMMUNE SYSTEM FUNCTION IN MINERS WITH HYPOXIC ENCEPHALOPATHY
35 miners of coal mines with acute hypoxic encephalopathy due to poisoning with methane and 32 healthy miners of the monitoring group held in-depth immunological examination. It included the holding of NBT-test, the study of T - and B-links of immunity, determine the concentration of immunoglobulins A, M and G, determining titters of autoantibodies to the antigen of brain, etc. In miners with acute hypoxic encephalopathy is a decrease in phagocytic activity of neutrophils, develops T-cell immunodeficiency too and there is a disorder of humoral immunity by reducing the number of B-lymphocytes, immunoglobulins G, A concentrations are proven. There is autosensibilization to the antigen of the brain.
