FINAL VERIFIED ENGLISH VERSION (ERROR-FREE) INFLUENCE OF HERBAL PREPARATIONS ON THE COOPERATION OF T AND B LYMPHOCYTES
Abstract
The development of an immune response to thymus-dependent antigens, such as sheep red blood cells (SRBC), requires cooperative interactions between T and B lymphocytes. This cooperation is essential for the transformation of B cells into plasma cells—the main producers of antibodies. Therefore, assessing the effects of herbal preparations on these cooperative interactions is of considerable scientific and practical importance.

This cooperation is essential for the transformation of B cells into plasma cells—the main producers of antibodies. Therefore, assessing the effects of herbal preparations on these cooperative interactions is of considerable scientific and practical importance. Objective of the Study: to investigate the effect of herbal preparations on the cooperation between T and B lymphocytes. Materials and Methods: We conducted experiments to evaluate the influence of herbal preparations on T–B lymphocyte cooperation during the immune response. White mice were exposed to total-body irradiation at a lethal dose of 8 Gy. Subsequently, the animals were injected with syngeneic bone marrow cells (a source of B lymphocytes, 10⁷/mL), lymph node cells (a source of T lymphocytes, 2×10⁶/mL), and SRBC at a dose of 2×10⁸/mL. On Day 9, the mice were euthanized, and the number of antibody-forming cells (AFCs) in the spleen was determined. The herbal preparations under investigation were administered once intraperitoneally, 24 hours after irradiation. For comparison, the immunomodulator Immunomodulin was administered at a dose of 0.01 mL/kg. Results: It was established that spleens of animals receiving syngeneic T and B lymphocytes formed 46.0 ± 6.8 AFCs. The findings showed that: Ginger enhanced T–B lymphocyte cooperation 1.6-fold. The herbal preparation Doctor Ali 1 Tea Infusion significantly increased antibody formation 1.5-fold (67.0 ± 3.8).
PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS OF SCIENTIFIC AND INNOVATIVE RESEARCH Volume 02, Issue 10, 2025 252 PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS OF SCIENTIFIC AND INNOVATIVE RESEARCH universalconference.us Comparative analysis revealed that Immunomodulin, at a dose of 0.01 mL/kg, increased the number of AFCs in the spleen 2.6-fold and the total number of splenocytes 2.4-fold. These results demonstrate that herbal preparations possess the ability to stimulate the cooperative interaction of T and B lymphocytes during the immune response. Conclusion 1. Herbal preparations (Ginger and Doctor Ali 1 Tea Infusion) stimulate the cooperative interaction between T and B lymphocytes involved in the immune response.
