immune system
• mast cells stimulated with DNP-HSA after incubation with anti-DNP IgE do not release serotonin to the same extent as wild-type mice which release 40% of total cellular serotonin
|
• cutaneous anaphylaxis, induced in a model where ear injection of anti-DNP IgE is followed by treatment 20 hours later with DNP-HSA, is prevented in mutants compared to wild-type
(J:39250)
• fibrinogen/fibrin deposits in ear of wild-type mice is 2-fold larger than in untreated control ear whereas no difference is observed between ears in mutants; cross-linked fibrin in treated ear is 4- to 5-fold greater in amount than in control ear in wild type mice
(J:39250)
• mutants are resistant to induced systemic anaphylaxis; wild-type mice show a significant drop in body temperature as well as tachycardia, piloerection, and prostration after antigen challenge 24 hours following anti-DNP IgE injection; mutants have absence of any symptoms
(J:39250)
• mutant mice do not show extravasation of dye in this model, compared to marked occurrence in feet and ears of wild-type
(J:39250)
• anaphylactic response as measured by a decrease in rectal temperature is almost eliminated in mutants upon treatment with anti-DNP IgE-Ab and DNP whereas controls show a significant temperature drop
