Desensitization of delayed-type hypersensitivity in mice: suppressive environment
The systemic injection of high doses of antigen into a preimmunized animal results in transient unresponsiveness of cell-mediated immune responses. This phenomenon is known as desensitization. Serum interleukin 2 (IL-2) activity was found transiently in desensitized mice at 3 h after the antigen challenge. These mice could not reveal antigen nonspecific delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) 1 d a...
متن کاملStudies on delayed hypersensitivity in mice. III. Evidence for suppressive regulatory T1-cell population in delayed hypersensitivity
T-T-cell interactions involved in delayed hypersensitivity (DH) response have been studied by employing delayed foot pad assay to methylated human serum albumin in C57BL/6J mice. The DH response, one of the T-cell manifestations of cell-mediated immune response is suppressively regulated by T cells and such observation was based on studies of age-associated kinetics of foot pad reaction and eff...
متن کاملIntestinal amoebiasis: delayed-type hypersensitivity response in mice.
Delayed-type hypersensitive (DTH) response was evaluated in C3H/HeJ mice intestinally infected with Entamoeba histolytica. Infected and non-infected control mice were challenged with amoebic antigen on day 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, and 60 post-infection. Maximum footpad swelling was observed after 24 hours of the challenge. The E. histolytica-infected mice exhibited a DTH response on day 5...
متن کاملTHE EFFECT OF ASCORBIC ACID ON BLOOD HISTAMINE LEVEL AND DELAYED-TYPE HYPERSENSITIVITY IN GUINEA PIGS
The effect of ascorbic acid on blood histamine level and delayed-type hypersensitivity was studied in thirty male guinea pigs. Animals were sensitized to B.C.G., trichophytin and mallein during the first four weeks. The diet was ad libitum during this period. After this "sensitization period" animals w er e tested intradermally with tuberculin, trichophytin and mallein. The number and diam...
متن کاملOral tolerance for delayed type hypersensitivity contribution of local and peripheral mechanisms
Oral tolerance is a physiological immune mechanism, which controls the outcome of deleterious hypersensitivity reactions to environmental antigens absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract, and maintains homeostasis. Using a mouse model of oral tolerance of delayed type hypersensitivity to contact allergens, i.e. haptens, we have examined the mechanisms involved in the induction of oral toler...
