Abstract
An acute inflammatory reaction was induced in chickens by intraperitoneal injection of turpentine. The birds were then killed at various intervals and the peritoneal exudate sampled. The antihistamine mepyramine maleate was administered to another group of birds and the procedure repeated. Following turpentine injections there was a biphasic increase in vascular permeability, the early phase apparently mediated by histamine.

Abstract
Changes in neutrophil precursor populations in the bone marrow and their alkaline phosphatase reactivity following an inflammatory stimulus were studied in the rat using an osmiophilic method. Seven groups each of 3 Sprague-Dawley rats received subcutaneous injections of turpentine, and femoral marrow was examined at intervals up to 72 hr. Depletion of mature neutrophils resulted in an increased first in the myeloblast-promyelocyte compartment and at 48-72 hr in the myelocyte-metamyelocyte population. By 72 hr replenishment of the mature neutrophil marrow population had begun. Within 6 hr marked acceleration of cytoplasmic maturation was evident, together with accelerated synthetic activity, manifested by marked dilatation of the rough endoplasmic reticulum and an enlarged Golgi. Together with these changes there was an increase in the number of alkaline phosphatase reactive cells, which was evident first in the myeloblast-promyelocyte population at 2 hr. An absolute increase in the amount of enzyme reaction product associated with individual cells was also seen.

Abstract
A quantitative enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was developed and utilized to study the stimulation of haptoglobin biosynthesis during an acute inflammatory challenge. A 10-fold increase in intracellular haptoglobin was measured at the peak of the inflammatory response. The increase in serum haptoglobin levels was concomitant with the intracellular levels, demonstrating the secretory output is also elevated during the inflammatory period. A monospecific antihaptoglobin was produced and used to detect the specific polysomes involved in haptoglobin synthesis. The amount of radioactively labeled antibody bound to the nascent haptoglobin chain was increased approx. 3-fold during the inflammatory response, indicating that new haptoglobin was being synthesized and suggesting an increase in functional haptoglobin mRNA resulting from the inflammatory signal.

Abstract
A protein which reacts with the Cx-polysaccharide of Streptococcus pneumoniae and is inhibited by phosphorylcholine was isolated from the serum of rainbow trout by affinity chromatography. The protein, which exists in monomeric and oligomeric forms in non-immune trout serum, is very similar with regard to specificity and size to the Cx-reactive protein from rabbits. A semi-quantitative analytical method for evaluating bacterial agglutination with an electronic particle counter and size distribution analyzer was developed to compare natural and acute serum levels of trout and rabbit Cx-reactive proteins. Results indicate that the poikilotherm has much higher concentrations in normal serum. The trout serum protein can also be rapidly induced to yet higher levels by both chemical and physical stress. The implications for such a protein in the teleost's natural defense system and overall homeostasis are discussed.

Abstract
Livers from rats at 2-3 days after s.c. injection of turpentine, when perfused, synthesized prekallikrein nearly 3 times faster than did livers from normal rats. On the other hand paw oedema, produced by heating to 46 degrees, in rats injured in this way was less marked. Likewise in such rats the amount of bradykinin release by 50 min. of coaxial perfusion of the paw was only 13.6 +/- 4.6 compared with 63.1 +/- 13.4 ng in normal rats. A possible explanation for the observed reduction in production of bradykinin may be inhibition of kallikrein due to an increased concentration of alpha 2-macroglobulin.

Abstract
The mechanism of increased ferritin synthesis in inflammation was studied in rat livers 0-48 h after turpentine injection. A subcellular protein synthesizing system was employed in which the respective roles of cell sap factors and polysomes from normal and treated animals could be studied. Two waves of increased ferritin synthesis were found, an early wave with peak activity at 6 h of inflammation, and a second wave starting at about 24 h. The early wave of enhanced ferritin synthesis was associated with increased activity of cell sap factors. In contrast, the late enhancement of ferritin synthesis was characterized by increased polysomal activity as well as increased cell sap activity. These observations suggest a post-transcriptional control mechanism for the early phase of enhanced ferritin synthesis in inflammation, and a transcriptional as well as post-transcriptional control for the late phase of enhanced ferritin synthesis.

Abstract
An acute inflammatory response was induced in rabbits by an intramuscular injection of turpentine. After this injection serial serum samples were obtained and serum haptoglobin levels were monitored. In addition, increased antibacterial activity was measured using a viable plate and photometric growth assay. As early as 4 hrs after turpentine challenge an increase was noted in serum antibacterial activity towards Staphylococcus aureus. At 48 hrs pronounced killing activity was demonstrated against S. aureus and S. epidermidis but not against Escherichia coli or other gram negative bacilli. By five days another serum bactericidal activity was present against Bacillus subtilis. Enhanced serum antibacterial activity persisted for 2 weeks. Partial characterization of these factors indicates that they are probably beta lysins.

Abstract
Rat alpha 2-macroglobulin was isolated and purified from the pooled sera of turpentine-injected rats by sequential use of dextran sulphate, DEAE-cellulose and gel filtration chromatography. The final protein product obtained by this procedure proved to be alpha 2-macroglobulin of a high degree of purity based on electrophoretic, immunologic and centrifugal analysis. The alpha 2-macroglobulin preparation also binds stoichiometrically to trypsin preventing subsequent inhibition by protein trypsin inhibitors. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of rat alpha 2-macroglobulin after incubation with trypsin suggested that there are at least two susceptible peptide bonds in the 170,000-dalton alpha 2-macroglobulin subunit. The concentration of alpha 2-macroglobulin in the sera of rats was measured by electroimmuno assay a monospecific antiserum against alpha 2-macroglobulin. Purified alpha 2-macroglobulin was used as a standard. Sera from normal male rats contained 32 +/- 4 micrograms of alpha 2-macroglobulin per ml. To determine the time course of response of alpha 2-macroglobulin to inflammation, rats were subjected to either laparotomy or subcutaneous injection of turpentine. After either type of injury, the concentration of alpha 2-macroglobulin increased rapidly, reaching a maximum value of 110-140 times that of the control value by 24 h. Little difference was noted in responsiveness between the two sexes.

Abstract
Arthritis can be induced in rats by intradermal injection of oil containing bacterial derivatives (adjuvant-induced arthritis) or cartilage collagen (type II collagen-induced arthritis). It was of interest, therefore, to determine whether collagen functions as an autoantigen in rats with adjuvant arthritis. Blood mononuclear cells from the majority of rats with adjuvant arthritis exhibited enhanced thymidine incorporation to homologous types I and II collagens, as well as to purified protein derivative of tuberculin. In contrast, cells from rats remaining nonarthritic after injection of adjuvant did not respond to collagen, although they did react to tuberculin. Similar results were obtained with a radiometric ear assay used to quantify intradermal delayed-type hypersensitivity in vivo. Using passive hemagglutination, autoantibodies to these collagens and their denatured alpha-chains were frequently detected in the sera of rats late in the course of adjuvant arthritis. Rats with inflammation of a hindlimb induced by turpentine did not acquire sensitivity to collagen. These data indicate that autoimmunity to collagen is a common feature of adjuvant- and collagen-induced arthritis, both of which are considered to be mediated by immunologic mechanisms.

Abstract
The activity of aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase and the content of soluble proteins were determined in mice irradiated with single dose of 100 R or injected with turpentine and in mice subjected to both these stress factors. The aim of this study was determination of changes in the activity of both these enzymes in the liver, kidney and spleen within 48 hours). It was found that the action of both these stress factors caused significant changes in the activity of AspAT and A1AT in the first phase of the response of the organism to stress and caused statistically significant changes of this activity on the second day of the experiment.

Abstract
An inflammatory reaction was produced in the skin of the chicken by various stimuli. Then the colloidal carbon technique was used to identify vessels showing an increased permeability. The type of vessel affected, the extent and duration of reaction after each procedure were compared. Intradermal histamine, 5-hydroxytryptamine and bradykinin caused extensive but transient carbon labelling which was confined to venules. Topical application of xylol produced a more persistent delineation of venules. Intradermal turpentine and carrageenin affected extensive and restricted portions, respectively, of venules, and to a lesser extent capillaries. Following thermal injury of 65 degrees C for 30 sec, the superficial capillary network was initially involved but the venular response persisted for up to 18 h. These findings are compared and contrasted with those reported in laboratory animals. The possibility of distinction between direct vascular injury and chemical mediation is discussed.

Abstract
An acute inflammatory response was produced in the chicken by the intraperitoneal injection of turpentine and vascular permeability was assessed by the technique of carbon labelling. This revealed a biphasic pattern of increased permeability which comprised an immediate transient reaction and a delayed more prolonged response. In both phases, the increased permeability remained confined to venules only. The vascular permeability was dissociated in time from leucocyte emigration. The pattern of leucocyte emigration revealed that heterophils and monocytes emigrated concurrently. Participation of basophils in significant numbers in the early stages indicated their possible role in avian inflammation. Examination of mast cells revealed morphological changes of degranulation and disruption. There was a coincident reduction in the population of these cells. It was thought likely that vasoactive amines released from the degranulated mast cells and the basophils might initiate the early vascular changes by acting on the venules.

Abstract
The effects of infection with Streptococcus pneumoniae, Francisella tularensis, and Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus as well as inflammatory stress induced by the administration of turpentine and endotoxin on plasma ketone bodies and insulin were studied in white rats. All of the infectious/inflammatory stresses caused a significant decrease in the ketonemia of fasting and an elevation of plasma insulin. When a pneumococcal infection was initiated in a diabetic rat, inhibition of fasting ketonemia did not occur. Similarly, pneumococcal infection in the hypophysectomized rat did not result in a noticeable depression of either fasting ketonemia or plasma FFA. The increase in circulating insulin appears to be closely correlated with the inhibition of fasting ketonemia noted in the infectious/inflammatory stress.

Abstract
Deferoxamine mesylate (DFO), given to rabbits 20 min after gallium-67 citrate, induces prompt and rapid urinary excretion of Ga-67 activity with concommitant decrease in blood and muscle activity. When DFO is given after 2 hr or later, the effect is smaller (15% decrease in blood activity compared with 50%). In abscess-bearing rats the same effect was observed: DFO accelerated the Ga-67 blood clearance by increasing urinary excretion. Tissue-distribution studies and direct counting of abscesses showed that DFO lowers Ga-67 activity in all organs as well as in the abscess if given 2 or 4 hr after Ga-67 citrate, but the abscess-to-blood ratio increases. At 24 hr after Ga-67 citrate, DFO administration causes an improvement in the ratios of abscess-to-blood and abscess-to-normal tissue. Thus, DFO could be used to decrease the radiation burden from Ga-67 citrate after imaging has been performed, and also to increase the target-to-nontarget ratio.

Abstract
Crossed immunoelectrophoresis of rat serum demonstrated considerably increased serum concentrations of at least ten different proteins during turpentine-induced inflammation. One protein, which moved during electrophoresis like an alpha 1 globulin, showed a particularly large increase. This protein was purified to homogeneity by ammonium sulfate fractionation followed by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. Sephadex G-100, and concanavalin A-Sepharose, and finally disc electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel. It has a molecular weight of 56,000 determined by equilibrium ultracentrifugation. An apparent molecular weight of 68,000 was estimated for the reduced protein by electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel plus sodium dodecyl sulfate, suggesting that the native protein is composed of a single polypeptide chain. It has an E2801%, 1 cm of 5.2, an isoelectric pH of 4.7, and contains 19% carbohydrate. The protein does not inhibit bovine trypsin or chymotrypsin. Its physical properties and amino acid composition distinguish this protein from all other rat serum proteins hitherto characterized. During acute inflammation, induced 25 h previously, rats incorporated 20 times more [14C]leucine into this particular protein than did normal rats. However, incorporation into total serum protein during acute inflammation increased only slightly. Regardless of whether inflammation was induced by surgical injury or by a subcutaneous turpentine injection, within 48 h the serum concentration of this major acute-phase protein rose from the normal value of 0.46 g/liter to a maximum value of 7.2 g/liter, which constituted 10% of the total serum protein.

Abstract
One week after unilateral denervation, tenotomy, casting, or joint inflammation, skeletal muscles of adult female Wistar rats were studied to determine the effect of these processes on muscle weights and fiber diameters of the soleus, the red and white regions of the plantaris, plus muscle weights and protein content of the gastrocnemius. All atrophic processes caused greater weight loss of the soleus than of the plantaris or gastrocnemiums. Within the soleus and plantaris muscles, the type-I fiber atrophy was equal to the type-II fiber atrophy except for the white region of the plantaris following tenotomy, where the wasting of the type-I fiber was greater than that of type II. This study also demonstrated that denervation, tenotomy, casting, and inflammation resulted in a greater loss of myofibrillar proteins (content and absolute amounts) than of sarcoplasmic and stromal proteins. Denervation generally was found to have the greatest effect on the parameters evaluated. The findings are consistent with the hypothesis that slow muscle is more dependent than fast muscle on neuronal control, and that nerve controls muscle through the dual role of impulse activity and axoplasmic flow.

Abstract
67Ga accumulation in turpentine-induced abscesses, from 5 h to 20 days old, in the rat has been investigated, and the results indicate that this is dependent on polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) infiltration of the inflamed site. 67Ga concentration 24 h after injection correlates well with the activities of the lysosomal enzymes, aryl sulphatase and beta-glucuronidase, P less than 0.001, and with the DNA content of the tissue. There is no direct relationship with the rate of DNA synthesis. The mechanism of lysosomal incorporation into PMNs is consistent with the factors involved in 67Ga uptake into tumours and normal tissues.
