  • Title: [The immunomodulating action of retinol acetate and beta-carotene in benzylpenicillin-induced immunosuppression].
    Author: Uteshev BS, Lazarev AI, Prokopenko LG.
    Journal: Eksp Klin Farmakol; 1996; 59(2):31-4. PubMed ID: 8974561.
    Abstract:
    Retinol acetate enhances the immune response to the T-dependent antigen and beta-carotine increases the organism's reactivity with respect to both T-dependent and T-independent antigens. beta-Carotine is more effective against immunosuppressive action of benzylpenicilline compared to retinol acetate Retinol acetate induces the immunostimulative activity of heavy erythrocytes and beta-carotine prevents the appearance of benzylpenicilline-induced immunosuppressive properties of light erythrocytes.
