Experimental immune arthritis: host factors

The Journal of Rheumatology
H A Menard, J Dion

Abstract

An experimental chronic mono-arthritis was induced in rabbits using adjuvants and bovine serum albumin. The results suggest that unidentified host factors (possibly genetic) influence the induction of delayed hypersensitivity to the antigen. The data further show a clear correlation between systemic cell mediated immunity and chronic synovitis. When this condition is absent, there is a poor correlation between the humoral response and the arthritis. The results make difficult the interpretation of local immune complex deposition as the sole, chronic phlogistic stimulus. (J Rheumatol 2: 373-383, 1975).

Avian Influenza: Innate Immune Adjuvant (ASM)

Adjuvants systems that are added to vaccines against avian influenza have be explored to enhance the innate immune system response against the virus. Here is the latest research on avian influenza and the innate immune adjuvant.
