[Influence of hydrocortisone and adrenaline against the background of mu- and delta-opiate receptors blockade on local immune response in mice].

In the induced phase of the immune response, the immunosuppressive effects of hydrocortisone and adrenaline were enhanced under mu- and delta-opiate receptor blockade. No changes were observed in the effects of hydrocortisone and adrenaline under mu- and delta-opiate receptor blockade in effector phase. In the induced phase of the immune response, selective agonists of mu- and delta-opiate receptors DAGO and DADLE enhanced antibody response, delayed-type hypersensitivity, and reduced the number of cells in the regional lymph node. Thus, our data suggest an equal role of mu- and delta-opiate receptors in regulation of expressiveness of local immune response.
