Ultrastructural study of satellite lymph nodes in syphilitic rabbits.

چکیده
In an electron microscopy study of lymph nodes from syphilitic rabbits plasmablasts and plasma cells were unequivocally identified in germinal centres. Up to 20% of the plasma cells possessed unusual cytological features. Paracortical hypoplasia was shown to be associated with actively phagocytic histiocytes. These findings may reflect morphological correlates of the aberrant immune regulation which has been observed in infection with Treponema pallidum.

Experimental Observations on the "cure" of Syphilis in the Rabbit with Arsphenamine
1. The intravenous administration of six doses of arsphenamine to syphilitic rabbits in amounts of 10 mg. per kilo, 127 days after inoculation is sufficient to render the popliteal nodes of such animals incapable of transmitting the infection to normal animals. 2. Syphilitic rabbits that have been treated in this manner and whose popliteal nodes 32 to 38 days after treatment have been shown to ...
متن کاملThe Relative Antisyphilitic Activity of Penicillins F, G, K, and X and of Bacitracin, Based on the Amounts Required to Abort Early Syphilitic Infections in Rabbits.
The assay of antisyphilitic agents by the determination of their curative dose in infected rabbits is a laborious and time-consuming procedure. The disappearance of organisms from the primary lesion is an unreliable criterion of cure, since the treponemata may reappear days, weeks, or even months after treatment, and since a large proportion of the rabbits in which the primary lesion is permane...

Immune system plays crucial role in body and lymph nodes are essential parts of this system for combating pathogens. However, no study has ever been conducted on morphometric development of sheep lymph nodes in fetal period. Thus, this study attempted to examine the morphometric characteristics of a number of important lymph nodes of some lymphocenters of sheep during fetal period. To this end,...

Breast cancer is one of the most common malignancies in the world. The most important prognostic factor in this cancer is the stage of the tumor. Detection of lymph nodes with or without malignancy is essential for determining the stage of the tumor and setting a therapeutic plan. There are different methods for isolating lymph nodes in surgical specimens of breast cancer in the pathology ...
متن کاملEvaluation of rosaramicin phosphate in treatment of experimental syphilis in rabbits.
The in vivo activity of rosaramicin phosphate in disseminated and localized Treponema pallidum infections in rabbits was compared with that of penicillin G benzathine. Rabbits were injected either intradermally or intravenously to establish infection. Groups of four animals each then received either two weekly injections of 200,000 U of penicillin G benzathine, injections of 12.5 or 25 mg of ro...
