Induction of avian immunological responsiveness following cloacal drinking of immunogen. 1977

C L Hughes, and D C Henderson

A solution of human serum albumin which has been cloacally ingested can cause effective development of immunological memory with minimal or no immediate production of antibody in 4 to 6 week old chickens. Such memory production was not accompanied by the generation of circulating rosette-forming ABC (antigen binding cells) and thus the peripheral appearance of such cells as a part of the normal primary response to HSA (human serum albumin) does not accord with the interpretation that they represent memory B cells. The cloacal route may be important for the maturing chick in initiating immunity to the food and micro-organisms of its external environment and gut flora.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007156	Immunologic Memory	The altered state of immunologic responsiveness resulting from initial contact with antigen, which enables the individual to produce antibodies more rapidly and in greater quantity in response to secondary antigenic stimulus.

D002645	Chickens	Common name for the species Gallus gallus, the domestic fowl, in the family Phasianidae, order GALLIFORMES. It is descended from the red jungle fowl of SOUTHEAST ASIA.	Gallus gallus,Gallus domesticus,Gallus gallus domesticus,Chicken
D002988	Cloaca	A dilated cavity extended caudally from the hindgut. In adult birds, reptiles, amphibians, and many fishes but few mammals, cloaca is a common chamber into which the digestive, urinary and reproductive tracts discharge their contents. In most mammals, cloaca gives rise to LARGE INTESTINE; URINARY BLADDER; and GENITALIA.	Cloacas

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D000921	Antibody-Producing Cells	Cells of the lymphoid series that can react with antigen to produce specific cell products called antibodies. Various cell subpopulations, often B-lymphocytes, can be defined, based on the different classes of immunoglobulins that they synthesize.
