[Redox processes in allergic reactions of the delayed type to microbial antigens].

The influence of common allergic response of delayed type to brucellosis antigen on the processes of glycolysis and dehydrogenase activity of Krebs' cycle in guinea pigs' blood and organs was studied. Along with inhibitory activity of four dehydrogenases investigated there was a depression of the glucolysis processes connected with reduction of the lactate, pyruvate content, and with depression of the LDH activity. An increase of the anaerobic fractions and lowering of aerobic fractions content and of the spectrum excess was seen in the isoenzyme LDH spectrum.
