Immunity in Experimentally Induced Infectious Hepatitis

نویسنده

  • W. Paul Havens
چکیده

1. 9 human volunteers, convalescent from infectious hepatitis experimentally induced by a strain of virus employed in this laboratory, were resistant when reinoculated with the same strain of virus, 6 to 9 months later. 2. 8 out of 12 previously healthy control subjects developed infectious hepatitis with jaundice following administration of this same material. 3. The demonstration of homologous immunity produced by this strain of virus is in agreement with the demonstration by others of homologous immunity produced by another strain of infectious hepatitis virus.

Experimental viral hepatitis in the dog: production of persistent disease in partially immune animals.

Experimental infection with canine hepatitis virus has been studied in a series of 49 dogs. The pattern of response to infection was distinctly modified by the immune status of the animal. All of 19 fully susceptible dogs had an acute, fulminating fatal hepatitis when infected with a standard dose of virus, and all of 19 dogs with high levels of immunity to the virus survived without apparent i...
