Immune Reactions in the Progeny of Female Rats Treated with Paclitaxel

Abstract

Immune reactions of the progeny of female Wistar rats injected with paclitaxel a single MPD of 1 and 3 months before mating with intact males were studied. Thymic hyperplasia was detected in the progeny of female rats mated 1 month after treatment. Disorders in the antibody-specific and antibody-nonspecific mechanisms of the immune response were detected in the progeny of females mated with intact males 3 months after cytostatic treatment.
