ВПЛИВ ЕКСТРАКТУ ЛИСТЯ ПЕРСИКА НА СТАН МЕТАБОЛІЧНИХ ПРОЦЕСІВ ТА ПРООКСИДАНТНО/АНТИОКСИДАНТНИЙ БАЛАНС ЩУРІВ В УМОВАХ ХРОНІЧ-НОГО ІММОБІЛІЗАЦІЙНОГО СТРЕСУ

Influence of extract of peach ordinary (persica vulgaris) leaves on the state of thymic-lymphatic element of the immune system of rats in conditions of chronic immobilization stress

“…One of the promising plants is peach (Persica vulgaris), the leaves of which contain biologically active substances (organic acids, polysaccharides, tannins, carotenoids, flavonoids, etc.) [5], which exhibit a wide range of pharmacological activity: stress-resistant [6], the ability to increase the production of secretory immunoglobulin A [7]. Therefore, it was advisable to evaluate the stress-protective effect of the thick extract obtained from peach leaves on the model of chronic immobilization stress.…”

“…The ability of TEPL to restore the activity of organs of the thymico-lymphatic system of the immune system, which has been disturbed under stress conditions, has been proved. Taking into account the data of previous studies [6,7], it is likely to assert that polyphenolic compounds of TEPL exhibit antioxidant properties, increasing the activity of the antioxidant system, and polysaccharides -immunostimulants, the result of which is the stress-protective effect.…”
