Abstract
The problem of aging is a decrease in the protective function of peripheral lymphoid organs. Solving the problem requires looking for ways to overcome aging. We analyzed the rate of aging using the example of a somatic inguinal lymph node. We assessed the structural and trace-element unity of the lymph node using the morphological method, X-ray fluorescence analysis with synchrotron radiation and the dynamic rows method. It has been found that the change in lymph node compartments varies in direction and speed, determining the features of the senile morphotype. A positive growth rate is typical of capsule area, cortical plateau, paracortex and medullary substance structures of a lymph node. The rate of a decrease is observed on the side of subcapsular sinus, lymphoid follicles area. At the same time, most trace elements of the immune group are deficient. Age-induced changes reduce lymph node operability. The work implements the idea of lymphotropic correction through original phytocomposition. The main active substances are bioflavonoids, trace elements of polyfunctional effect on the organism. Phytocorrection changes the rate and intensity of lymph node changes when aging. It is noted that structures increased in size during aging became smaller after phytocorrection and vice versa. There is a slowdown in the rate of aging due to the structural-modifying effect. Introduction from outside trace elements prevents their deficiency, especially zinc and selenium. This has a positive effect on the structural organization of the senile lymph node. We implemented the idea of lymph node state management through evaluation of structure and trace element status using phytolymphotropic technology. The total growth coefficient is confirmation and estimates the intensity of changes in aging and after phytocorrection. Phytotherapy prevents lymph node aging and ensures reliability of lymph node functioning in somatic lymphatic region.
