The Production of Passive Hypersensitiveness to Tuberculin

نویسنده

  • Charles R. Austrian
چکیده

The successful transference of hypersensitiveness to tuberculin from man to animals is the crucial evidence that has been needed to substantiate the theory of yon Pirquet, Richet, and others, that the tuberculin reaction is a true anaphylactic phenomenon.. On this most important phase of anaphylaxis, a large amount of literature has already appeared, but the results of the experiments reported have, for the most part, been negative.

Tuberculin Hypersensitiveness in Non-tuberculous Guinea Pigs Induced by Injections of Bacillus-free Filtrates

1. When a guinea pig with well developed peritoneal tuberculosis is injected intraperitoneally with about 20 cc. of a heavy suspension of a virulent tubercle bacillus (Culture H37) death occurs within 24 hours or the animal becomes extremely toxic. Such a peritoneal tuberculosis develops in about 1 month after 1 cc. of. a very heavy suspension of Culture H37 has been introduced into the abdomin...

Reactions of Rabbits to Non-hemolytic Streptococci

1. Accompanying and following the evolution of a secondary reaction in the skin of rabbits after inoculation with suitable doses of certain non-hemolytic streptococci there quickly develops a general state of hypersensitiveness or allergy towards these streptococci. 2. This state is made evident by ophthalmic reactions following corneal inoculations, by much increased reactivity of the skin fol...

Studies on the Tuberculin Reaction and on Specific Hypersensitiveness in Bacterial Infection

The work reported in the preceding sections justifies, we think, a number of definite conclusions. In addition to this, some of the experiments indicate a line of thought which may lead to considerable alteration in our conceptions, both of phenomena of bacterial hypersensitiveness and of infection. 1. In guinea pigs two fundamentally different types of intradermal reactions may be observed. On...

Phenomenon of Local Skin Reactivity to Bacillus Tuberculosis

New toxic substances in certain tuberculin, O.T., and B. typhosus culture filtrates are described. These substances are capable of eliciting the hemorrhagic necrosis characteristic of the phenomenon of local skin reactivity provided heterologous bacterial filtrates of high potency are used either for the intradermal or the intravenous injection. The toxic substances apparently have no relations...

Reactions of Normal and Tuberculous Animals to Tuberculo-protein and Tuberculo-phosphatide

Prior observations on the cellular reactions to tuberculo-phosphatide are confirmed and compared with reactions induced by this material in tuberculous animals. In the latter the response is accelerated and augmented and simulates the Koch phenomenon. Tuberculo-protein produces no macroscopic reaction in normal animals. The microscopic reaction of neutrophiles and monocytes regresses in less th...
