[Influence of taliblastin and vinblastine on serum agglutinins determined by 2 methods].

The authors examined the influence of the potential antitumorous preparation taliblastin and the well known cytostatic vinblastin on the formation of serum agglutinins in mice. Two methods were used--the classical reaction of agglutination and the method for inhibition of passive migration of erythrocytes (IPM) described by Schweicer and Gilisen (1974). It was established that vinblastin markedly inhibited the formation of specific agglutinating antibodies, while taliblastin was considerably weaker immunosupresor; The method of IPM was more sensitive than the classical reaction of agglutination and gave a possibility for better determination of immunosuppresive action of cytostatics.
