Experimental pulpal Arthus allergy
Rabbits sensitized systemically to ovalbumin displayed skin reactions of the Arthus type and high titers of circulating antibodies. Their incisor pulp was removed at intervals after local challenge with 0.001 ml of 1 percent ovalbumin. Acute inflammatory lesions were demonstrated in the pulp by opti...

Summary: | Rabbits sensitized systemically to ovalbumin displayed skin reactions of the Arthus type and high titers of circulating antibodies. Their incisor pulp was removed at intervals after local challenge with 0.001 ml of 1 percent ovalbumin. Acute inflammatory lesions were demonstrated in the pulp by optical and electron microscopy. Immunofluorescence revealed massive accumulations of antigen-antibody complexes in the lesions, confirming the presence of an Arthus type of allergy. |
