The aim: Analyzing literature sources, to assess possibilities of using the method of intradermal immunization with native autoleukocytes to treat different diseases, to investigate the areas of usage, efficacy and expediency of the technique in clinical practice.
Materials and methods: Analysis of literature sources associated with intradermal immunization with native autoleukocytes.
Conclusions: The possibilities of using the method of intradermal immunization with native autoleukocytes in the treatment of various diseases are considered in the literature review. Intradermal immunization with autoleukocytes is one of the methods of personalized medicine. The application of the method results in normalization of the immune system condition as well as suppression of autoimmune and inflammatory processes. It also reduces the synthesis of
pro-inflammatory cytokines and strengthens cellular antiviral immunity in a number of viral infections. It is proved, in particular, that the method reduces the synthesis of cryoglobulins, the formation of antithyroid antibodies, normalizes the level of tumor necrosis factor alpha, as well as reduces extrahepatic manifestations of chronic hepatitis and increases the effectiveness of antiviral therapy in patients with viral hepatitis B. Considering that immunization with
native autoleukocytes has no contraindications, it can be used in many diseases.
