Experimental ocular hypersensitivity to polyepinephrine and its analogues.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Experimental hypersensitivity to epinephrine and to some of its analogues was induced in the rabbit. These changes included chemosis, limbal hyperemia, subepithelial cornea! infiltrates, and anterior chamber cells and flare; changes already described in human epinephrine hypersensitivity. Positive skitx reactions and circulating antibody were recorded after systemic immunization to polyepinephrine; only skin sensitivity occurred in polyaldomet immunization. This experimental model closely simulates epinephrine hypersensitivity as seen in man.

Suppression of Delayed Hypersensitivity in Vitro by Inhibition of Protein Synthesis
Peritoneal cells from guinea pigs exhibiting delayed hypersensitivity are inhibited from migrating in vitro by specific antigen. This inhibition is prevented by the addition of puromycin to the culture medium. The amount of puromycin necessary to prevent the inhibition by antigen also suppressed the incorporation of C(14)-leucine into peritoneal cell protein. Additional evidence that the action...
متن کاملChlamydial disease pathogenesis. Ocular hypersensitivity elicited by a genus-specific 57-kD protein
Recurrent or persistent infections with Chlamydia trachomatis are thought to provide the antigenic stimulus for the chronic inflammation associated with blinding trachoma. We used the guinea pig model of inclusion conjunctivitis to identify chlamydial antigens that may be involved in this deleterious immune response. We purified from chlamydial elementary bodies a genus-specific 57-kD protein t...
متن کاملDentin Hypersensitivity and Its Treatments: A Literature Review
The aim of this review study is to increase information about dentin hypersensitivity, its etiology and treatments. For data collection we used PUBMED to find relevant articles. Then using the obtained articles and relevant text books, we attempted to sort this information according to etiology, prevalence and available treatment options.

In this project, new derivatives of fluorescein were synthesized using the reaction of maleic anhydride and saccharin with phenol derivatives in the presence of ZnCl2, and their structures were elucidated by UV, IR, and NMR spectroscopy. Fluorimetry studies showed that, the synthesized compounds can be utilized as fluorescent agents, and their efficiencies were dependent on pH of solution. Acco...
