[Structural and functional characteristics of the spleen in systemic and local allogenic graft versus host reaction].
Morphological and histochemical characteristics of the spleen in the systemic and locally induced in the spleen transplant host reaction were compared. In both forms there were observed infiltration of the organ with macrophages and pyroninophilial blasts characterized by a high level of the activity of enzymes of lysosomas and a hexosemonophosphate cycle. In the process of interaction between genetically heterogenous mononuclear cells the disturbance of enzymatic processes in them and in the adjacent cellular elements took place, and susequently they underwent necrosis. Most frequently this process was observed in lymphoid follicles. The destructive component in the spleen tissue was more pronounced in the systemic transplant against host reaction.
