    A new isotopic method reveals that delayed hypersensitivity reactions have specific and nonspecific components. Mild irradiation enhances these reactions, which involve neutrophils but not their blood count.

    Area of Science:

    • Immunology
    • In vivo studies

    Background:

    • Delayed hypersensitivity is a key immune response.
    • Existing measurement methods have limitations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the components of delayed hypersensitivity.
    • To evaluate the effect of irradiation on these reactions.
    • To characterize the cellular involvement in phlogogenic substance-induced reactions.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized a previously designed isotopic in vivo method.
    • Employed nonantigenic or weakly antigenic phlogogenic substances (carbon, oil, bentonite).
    • Administered mild whole-body irradiation to animals.

    Main Results:

    • The method identified both specific and nonspecific components of the reaction.

  • Mild whole-body irradiation significantly augmented the observed reactions.
  • The reaction was primarily mediated by polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN).
  • The reaction's intensity was independent of the circulating PMN count.
  • Conclusions:

    • The isotopic in vivo method can detect specific and nonspecific delayed hypersensitivity.
    • Irradiation is a potent modulator of these immune responses.
    • Polymorphonuclear neutrophils play a crucial role, irrespective of their circulating levels.
