[Immunohistochemical study of the accumulation of antibody-forming cells in the lungs following intrapulmonary and subcutaneous administration of apneumotropic antigen].
Accumulation of the antibody-synthesizing cells in the lungs of guinea pigs in intratracheal and subcutaneous immunization was studied on a model of a complete typhoid bacilli antigen by means of Coons' method. Antibody-forming cells located in the interalveolar septi and in the peribronchial and perivascular connective tissue appeared with both method of the apneumotropic antigen administration. More of these cells accumulated in intrapulmonary application of the antigen. Repeated immunization by any method also led to the increase of their amount. The problem on the role played by the lungs in the immunogenesis is discussed.
