,The Role of Iron in Bacterial Infections, with Special Consideration of Host-Tubercle Bacillus Inte |
Ivan Kochan |
|
Abstract
Various bacteria can invade dead or weakened tissues of an animal but only pathogenic parasites are able to establish themselves in viable host tissues and cause disease. To survive in a host and to invade its healthy tissues, a bacterial parasite has to possess mechanisms to neutralize or resist the natural defenses of the host and to use tissues and fluids of the infected body as sources of energy and materials essential for growth. Some pathogens secrete exotoxins which produce symptoms of disease, and, if not neutralized by antitoxins, may cause death. The active or passive acquisition of antibodies to exotoxins usually eliminates toxemia but not infection. Direct destruction of bacteria by specific antibodies and complement occurs only in a few bacterial species. Many pathogens do not produce exotoxins but nevertheless are able to invade tissues of the host, to multiply, and to spread. There is no single characteristic which could account for the pathogenicity of the non-toxigenic bacteria. Some of them survive in the host by being able to multiply rapidly in its tissue fluids and to resist engulfment by his phagocytic cells; once phagocytized, these bacteria are readily diges

,Antibodies to Receptors Recognizing Histocompatibility Antigens, |
H. Ramseier |
|
Abstract
Almost every experiment done in the field of immunology is in one way or another related to antigenic recognition. In this respect, transplantation immunology is no exception. Success or failure of grafts of organs or lymphoid cells is ultimately dictated by mechanisms of antigenic recognition. While, for example, events like rejection of skin grafts or the outcome of graft-versus-host reactions are processes relatively remote, in time, from the actual recognition step, there are in vivo reactions which need shorter time intervals between recognition and immune manifestation.

,Genetics of the F Sex Factor in Enterobacteriaceae, |
Mark Achtman |
|
Abstract
Bacterial sex factors and conjugation have supplied the topics for many review articles and the value of yet another one may be questioned. However, the last few years have seen many new developments in this area such that a more informed approach to the problem is now possible. In addition, it seems worthwhile, at this point, to subject what has been done to a critical analysis and point out several logical predictions and shortcomings. In order to reduce the length of this review to a manageable size, I will largely ignore the large body of information so adequately reviewed in the past except where it is of direct interest to my topic and instead, wherever possible, will refer the interested reader to the appropriate review(s).

,Antigenic Competition, |
Michael J. Taussig |
|
Abstract
The term antigenic competition dates back as far as 1904 when it was introduced by LEONOR MICHAELIS in connection with the raising of antibodies to serum proteins. In 1902 he had shown that the main result of injection of foreign serum into rabbits was the production of antibodies against globulins, and that in order to obtain anti-albumin it was necessary to inject the relatively purified albumin alone. He concluded that the response to the serum globulin had inhibited the response to serum albumin. MICHAELIS put it thus in the terminology of the time:
