[The reaction of lung mast cells to acute barbiturate and bromureide poisoning (author's transl)].
Guinea pigs were poisoned by large oral doses of hypnotics in order to study the effect of bromureides on the mast cell contents of the lungs in comparison to the influence of barbiturate intoxication. The dose of the hypnotics chosen was thus, that all animals died within the first three hours after the beginning of feeding. Then the degranulation of mast cells with decrease of the mast cell number in the lung tissue was merely small in the barbiturate poisoned animals, but very extensive in the animals intoxicated by bromureides. The difference is highly significant. The possible influence of this effect upon the different clinical course of both kinds of intoxication is discussed.
