Abstract Dipeptides Glu-Trp and Lys-Asp and peptide mixtures of the 5th thymosine fraction, as well as thymaline, stimulate the immune response when applied subcutaneously during 5 days and intensify the activity of neutrophils and protect splenocytes from the toxic effect of benzene and aflatoxin B1 in vitro. Amino acids (Glu, Trp, Lys, Asp, and Arg) and amino acid mixtures (levamine-70, cerebrolysine, and aviamine) differently affect the indexes of specific and nonspecific resistance under the same conditions and at the same dose.
