Abstract

The aim of the main research was investigated of interaction of neural, endocrine and immune systems under experimental postviral fatigue, behavioral reactions, level of corticosterone, changes of IL-3 and IL-10 gene expression in rats' hypothalamus and INF-α in hypothalamus and spleen were analyzed. It has been shown the decrease of physical activity, increasing of corticosterone's level and gene expression of cytokines after injection of Poly I:C as a model of postviral fatigue. After remedication of Poly I:C increasing of physical activity was shown.
