AB This symposium describes the advances in immunology that have occurred
in the Commonwealth of Independent States. The worldwide difficulties of
allergists and immunologists who face problems including increasing
morbidity and mortality from HIV, immunoregulatory disorders, and asthma
are also germane to our colleagues in Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine. The
unique experiences of Dr. Petrov, who has investigated novel
immunomodulators; Dr. Titov, who has studied synthetic immunogens; Dr.
Babakhin, who has investigated the effects of modified allergens; and
Dr. Sidorovitch, who has explored the pathogenesis and natural history
of HIV infections occurring in Russia, offer interesting insights into
the advances in immunology that have occurred in the Commonwealth of
Independent States. Coping with the tragedies of radiation from
Chernobyl and environmental pollution in Ukraine, Drs. Titov and Markov
have investigated the effects of these unfortunate disruptions of the
environment upon the occurrence of immunoregulatory disorders and
asthma, respectively. Under the direction of Drs. Petrov and Khaitov,
immunologist from the Commonwealth of Independent States, have conducted
studies that are among the leading epidemiological immune investigations
of our time to determine the effects of the Chernobyl radiation on the
immune system.
