Immunopathogenesis of arterial diseases in animals and man.
This brief review summarizes our current understanding of vasculitis mediated by phlogistic immune complexes. The Arthus reaction and serum sickness both represent experimental models for immune complex disease. Immune complex phenomena occur in conjunction with C3 deficiency of dogs during canine distemper virus infection and, presumably, as a part of the beagle pain syndrome.
