Cutaneous Basophil (jones-mote) Hypersensitivity after "tolerogenic" Doses of Intravenous Ovalbumin in the Guinea Pig

چکیده

Cutaneous basophil hypersensitivity (CBH) was studied for tolerogenic requirements. Graded doses of intravenous ovalbumin (OA) were given to guinea pigs which were subsequently immunized appropriately to produce CBH, classic delayed hypersensitivity (classic DH), and/or antibodies of both passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) and hemolytic types. Results showed that doses of intravenous antigen sufficient to induce subsequent tolerance for classic DH and hemolytic antibody actually stimulate CBH reactivity and PCA antibody production. Other studies of dose-route relationships for CBH production demonstrated that optimal immunogenic dosage requirements for CBH varied widely with route of antigen employed. OA in incomplete Freund's adjuvant (IFA) injected into footpads had low dosage requirements, intravenous OA had high dose requirements, and intradermal soluble OA dosage requirements were intermediate. The observation that blatant immunogenic responses occur during the early period of tolerance induction amplifies the significant heterogeneity of the cellular immune response and may be of importance in understanding tolerogenesis. Similar immunogenic-tolerogenic requirements and the prime role played by the basophil suggest a developmental or functional relationship between CBH and PCA antibody response.

Basophils in tuberculin and "Jones-Mote" delayed reactions of humans.

Jones-Mote reactions are delayed, erythematous, and mildly indurated cutaneous reactions originally described in humans sensitized by skin injection of heterologous proteins. Similar reactions in guinea pigs contain many basophils and are called cutaneous basophil hypersensitivity. In contrast, guinea pigs immunized with mycobacterial adjuvants have classical tuberculin-type delayed hypersensit...

Cutaneous Basophil Hypersensitivity

Delayed onset erythematous skin reactions elicited in guinea pigs early in the course of sensitization with azobenzenearsonate-protein conjugates or with protein antigens in incomplete Freund's adjuvant or in saline were found to have a characteristic morphology which sets them apart from delayed hypersensitivity and the classic antibody mediated reactions. The principle feature was massive der...

The Effect of Threonine and Vitamin A on Immune System in Broiler Chickens

Two independent experiments were conducted with broilers to determine the effect of threonine and vitamin A on immune system. In first experiment, dietary treatments contained 0.8%, 0.87%, 0.94 % and 1.01 % total threonine. In second experiment, diets were as follows: basal diet without vitamin A; basal diet plus 1500 IU/Kg vitamin A; basal diet plus 6250 IU/Kg vitamin A; basal diet plus 11000 ...

Immediate hypersensitivity in the guinea pig conjunctiva intravitreal and topical sensitization.

The right eyes of guinea pigs were injected with 1.5 mg sterile ovalbumin. Two months later, one drop of ovalbumin (approximately 0.6 mg) was applied to the conjunctiva of both eyes. All challenged eyes developed an immediate hypersensitivity reaction within 5 min. The reaction subsided within 2 hrs. Prechallenge antibody titers, as determined by passive hemagglutination, passive cutaneous anap...
