We studied immunotropic properties of synthetic selenium-organic preparation 2,6-dipyridinium-9-selenabicyclo[3.3.1]nonyl dibromide (974zh). The experimental preparation reduced the cAMP/cGMP ratio, which indicated an increase in proliferative activity of cells of immunocompetent organs (thymus and spleen) in experimental animals. It was shown that 974zh intensified the immune response to Yersinia pestis EV thereby increasing the resistance to the plague agent.
