Studies on Delayed Hypersensitivity
Experiments carried out with several well defined antigenic systems (hapten conjugates of poly-L-lysine and guinea pig serum albumin) in guinea pigs demonstrated that: 1. Arthus reactions also manifest carrier specificity, although to a smaller extent than do delayed hypersensitivity reactions. 2. Desensitization by injection of minute doses of antigen results in moderate specific desensitizati...
متن کاملStudies on delayed hypersensitivity in Hodgkin's disease.
The susceptibility of patients with Hodgkin's disease to mycotic and viral infections has long directed attention to an immunological defect in that condition (1). The early finding of tuberculin negativity in these patients (2, 3), even in the presence of active tuberculous infection, has been confirmed repeatedly. Subsequent investigations have indicated that this cutaneous anergy extends to ...
متن کاملDelayed Hypersensitivity to Hapten-protein Conjugates
Further data have been presented showing that the specificity of the delayed hypersensitivity reaction in the guinea pig to hapten-protein conjugates involves to a considerable degree a contribution by the protein carrier. The carrier contribution is such that sensitization to guinea pig albumin-m-azobenzenesulfonate, for example, does not result in cross-reaction with conjugates of the same ha...
متن کاملGenetic control of delayed type hypersensitivity to Mycobacterium leprae antigen.
The mechanism of genetic control of Mycobacterium leprae-specific delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) in mice was investigated in terms of footpad swelling response. Studies with various congenic and recombinant inbred strains of mouse revealed that M. leprae-specific DTH was controlled by genes within the I-A subregion. The footpad swelling response showed an antigen-specific pattern, revealin...
متن کاملDetection of delayed hypersensitivity to Fonsecaea pedrosoi metabolic antigen (chromomycin).
An experimental study was conducted between January 2002 and April 2003 for the detection of delayed hypersensitivity to Fonsecaea pedrosoi metabolic antigen (chromomycin) in skin tests. A total of 194 subjects were attended by spontaneous demand at the Infectious and Parasitic Diseases outpatient clinic of the Federal University of Maranhão-UFMA and at the Department of Microbiology, Federal U...
