Fractions of the tubercle bacillus were examined for their capacity to produce an allergic pulmonary granulomatous response in rabbits. We found that emulsions containing old tuberculin and even old tuberculin alone in an emulsion could induce a pulmonary inflammatory reaction comparable in intensity to that produced with killed BCG. Emulsions lacking old tuberculin failed to produce an allergic pulmonary inflammatory response. The significance of these results in relation to immunological and nonimmunological chronic inflammation is discussed.
对结核杆菌的各个部分进行了检测,以观察它们在兔体内引发过敏性肺肉芽肿反应的能力。我们发现,含有旧结核菌素的乳剂,甚至仅含旧结核菌素的乳剂,都能引发一种强度与用灭活卡介苗引发的反应相当的肺部炎症反应。缺乏旧结核菌素的乳剂未能引发过敏性肺部炎症反应。本文讨论了这些结果在免疫性和非免疫性慢性炎症方面的意义。
