Zusammenfassung

Die bei langzeitiger Sensibilisierung von Kaninchen mit homologem Lebergesamtextrakt beobachteten morphologischen Leberveränderungen (Infiltration der periportalen Felder, Aktivierung der Kupfferschen Sternzellen, Leberzellnekrosen) sind im wesentlichen auf die antigene Wirksamkeit der Cytoplasmafraktion zurückzuführen. Bei Sensibilisierung mit homologer Mikrosomen-Mitochondrienfraktion sind die Veränderungen wesentlich geringer ausgeprägt. Bei Behandlung mit homologer Leberparenchymzellkernfraktion konnten keine wesentlichen morphologischen Veränderungen nachgewiesen werden.

Summary

The morphologic changes in the liver (infiltrates in the periportal regions, hyperactivity of the von Kupffer cells, liver cell necroses) observed after prolonged sensitization of rabbits with extracts of homologous whole liver are due primarily to the antigenic effect of the cytoplasmic fractions. With the sensitization with homologous microsomal-mitochondrial fractions, the changes are essentially less extensive. With the injections of homologous fractions of nuclei of hepatic parenchymal cells no major changes can be demonstrated.
