title: [Lectin arthritis--a new arthritis model].
abstract: By single intraarticular injection of lectin from Lens culinaris in nosenitized rabbits acute and chronic arthritis was produced. By use of fluoresceinisothiocyanate-labelled lectin binding of lectin could be demonstrated in the connective tissue of joint capsule for 4 weeks. The morphological features of lectin-arthritis were described. The results are discussed with respect to the pathogenesis of the arthritis.
