Abstract

The effect of course treatment with neuroleptic haloperidol on the inflammatory response and state of the connective tissue in the lungs of C57Bl/6 mice was studied on the model of toxic pulmonary fibrosis induced by intratracheal administration of bleomycin. This neuroleptic decreased the inflammatory response and reduced the growth of the connective tissue in the lungs. The anti-inflammatory effect of haloperidol is related to a decrease in activity of bone marrow hemopoietic stem cells and committed hemopoietic precursors. The antifibrotic effect of this drug is associated with inhibition of mesenchymal precursor cells.
