Abstract
The own observations results of urogenital, gastrointestinal and nasopharyngeal infectious factors that cause the development of reactive arthritis (PeA) are being presented. The greatest contribution to the development of this disease make Chlamidia trachomatis (36%), Streptococcus haemolyticus (pyogenes) (19%) and hepatitis viruses B and C (10%). As a result of the research a number of kinetic parameters of arginase and NO-synthase reactions in peripheral blood lymphocytes of patients with reactive arthritis was identified. The authentic increase of arginase activity in 3.3 times and eNO-synthase activity decrease by 1,9 times in peripheral blood lymphocytes of patients with PeA, compared to practically healthy donors were determined. Increased activity of arginase and iNO-synthase of lymphocytes indicates changes in immune cells functional activity, which may be due to impaired metabolic and regulatory processes in these cells caused by a bacterial or viral infection.
