The studies using antinuclear and antideoxyribonucleoprotein immunoglobulins of the G class from hormone-producing cells against specific structures of the adrenals, thyroid gland, and thymus exerting an selective organ-specific effect and an immunomodulator thymaline (a thymus factor) in the structural-functional analysis revealed previously unknown mechanisms of interaction of the endocrine system and immunogenesis organs. These data may facilitate the elucidation of the mechanisms of levelling of disturbed homeostatis.
