Abstract

The study of the adaptive immunity system of six test subjects volunteered for a 105-day isolation and confinement in an artificial environment showed activation of the immune system and overstrain and depletion of its functional reserve. Significant differences in the adaptability of the immune system of the test subjects indicate individual susceptibility to disorders in immunological reactivity.
