[Kinetics of peripheral leukocyte count and leukocyte adhesion to pulmonary capillary endothelium in experimental vagal neuritis].

It was disclosed in chronic experiments on rats with dextral vagus neuritis that reactive leucocytosis is wave-like in character. Variations in leucocytosis were inversely proportional to adhesiveness of the lung capillary endothelium with respect to leucocytes. The relationship between the number of circulatory leucocytes and adhesiveness of the capillary endothelium is not so pronounced in intact animals as compared to controls.
