[Regularities of the highest synergistic interaction display].

Abstract

The synergistic interaction effects of various physical and chemical environmental factors on cells of different origin are presented. Some general patterns of biological manifestations of synergy are analyzed. It is shown that synergistic interactions may be revealed only within a certain range of acting agents and within this range there is an optimum value at which the greatest effect is observed. Possible mechanisms of these effects and their practical usefulness are discussed.
