[Experimental keratoplasty after sensitization by a bacterial antigen (Streptococcus A group)]. 1976

R F Vidal, and F M Polack

Experimental (rabbit) penetrating keratoplasties with donor tissue sensitized to a bacterial antigen (Streptococcus Group A) were placed in normal rabbits and animals sensitized to the same antigen. Severe graft reactions developed two months after grafting in sensitized rabbits while no reaction occurred in controls. It is possible that homograft reactions can be triggered and super-imposed to the immuno-allergice reaction to the foreign antigen present in host and donor.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007114 Immunization Deliberate stimulation of the host's immune response. ACTIVE IMMUNIZATION involves administration of ANTIGENS or IMMUNOLOGIC ADJUVANTS. PASSIVE IMMUNIZATION involves administration of IMMUNE SERA or LYMPHOCYTES or their extracts (e.g., transfer factor, immune RNA) or transplantation of immunocompetent cell producing tissue (thymus or bone marrow).
