[Epithelial canaliculi of the thymus gland--thymosin-dependent structures]. 1991

N A Voloshin, and V A Malyzhev, and A G Iakhnitsa

The morphology peculiarities of thymus epithelial canals of 120 Wistar-line rats with thymosin have been observed. Thymosin-5 introduction during 3 days after birth in the dosage of 50 g proved to eliminate the epithelial canals of rat thymus in 3, 7 days of the postnatal period. In this period the epithelial canals have been found in thymus of all intact and control physiological solution injected rats. In 14, 30 days after birth the epithelial canals in experimental rats are found more often than in control ones. Thus, for the first time the evidence of thymosin-dependent characteristics of thymus epithelial canals has been obtained. The possible influence of epithelial canals on the regulation of T-forerunners entrance thymus has been discussed.

D013947 Thymosin Thymosin. A family of heat-stable, polypeptide hormones secreted by the thymus gland. Their biological activities include lymphocytopoiesis, restoration of immunological competence and enhancement of expression of T-cell characteristics and function. They have therapeutic potential in patients having primary or secondary immunodeficiency diseases, cancer or diseases related to aging. Thymosin Fs,Thymosins
D013950 Thymus Gland A single, unpaired primary lymphoid organ situated in the MEDIASTINUM, extending superiorly into the neck to the lower edge of the THYROID GLAND and inferiorly to the fourth costal cartilage. It is necessary for normal development of immunologic function early in life. By puberty, it begins to involute and much of the tissue is replaced by fat.
