Essay

It has been established that during the period from birth to 10 days of age processes of myelo- and lymphopoesis in animal or- ganism were gradually intensified. Аctivation of pentosophos- phate pathway enzymes and mitochondrial cytochromes in pig lymphocytes takes place. The activities of glycolytic enzy- mes increase in neutrophilic leukocytes. Cortisol causes decre- ase in the granulocytopoiesis rate, inhibition of the initiating stages of glycolysis and pentosophosphate pathway, decrease in activity of antioxidant enzymes. The combined treatment of piglets by sodium selenite and dextrofer leads to the activation of antioxidant enzymes and provide the changes in several links of energy metabolism.
