Induction of anti-timothy pollen reaginic antibodies and their cross-reactivity in the rat. 1977

T J Yoo, and C Y Kuo, and S Joseph

Anti-timothy pollen reaginic antibody produced in rats cross-reacted with a large number of grass pollen antigens (Orchard, June grass, perennial rye grass, velvet, meadow fescue, red top and broncho grass), but did not react with Bermuda, brome and Johnson grass.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D010323	Passive Cutaneous Anaphylaxis	An evanescent cutaneous reaction occurring when antibody is injected into a local area on the skin and antigen is subsequently injected intravenously along with a dye. The dye makes the rapidly occurring capillary dilatation and increased vascular permeability readily visible by leakage into the reaction site. PCA is a sensitive reaction for detecting very small quantities of antibodies and is also a method for studying the mechanisms of immediate hypersensitivity.

D011935	Reagins	Antibodies, especially IGE, that bind to tissue of the same species so that ANTIGENS induce HISTAMINE RELEASE and other vasoactive agents. HYPERSENSITIVITY is the clinical manifestation.	Homocytotropic Antibodies,Reagin
D003429	Cross Reactions	Serological reactions in which an antiserum against one antigen reacts with a non-identical but closely related antigen.	Cross Reaction,Reaction, Cross,Reactions, Cross
D006109	Poaceae	A large family of narrow-leaved herbaceous grasses of the order Cyperales, subclass Commelinidae, class Liliopsida (monocotyledons). Food grains (EDIBLE GRAIN) come from members of this family. RHINITIS, ALLERGIC, SEASONAL can be induced by POLLEN of many of the grasses.

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.
