Abstract
Aluminium hydroxide attracted eosinophils to [mouse] injection sites in the absence of specific antigenic stimulation. This was markedly reduced by depletion of T cells. Eosinophilia caused by a nonimmunological stimulus apparently required the presence of T cells, and these lymphocytes were involved in reactions in which specific antigen recognition played no role.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
