The immunomodulating action of thymopentin in acute and chronic stress

: Thymopentin, an active centre of the thymic hormone, was shown to possess a marked immunomodulatory effect on the cellular immune reactions of immunity in rats under acute and chronic stress. Thymopentin ensures adaptation of the organs of immunogenesis by increasing viability of the polymorphonuclear leukocytes and normalization of the phagocytic activity of the leukocytes.
