Delayed hypersensitivity (DH) was induced in the footpads of mice sensitized to methylated bovine serum albumin (MBSA). The magnitude of this DH response increased with increasing sensitizing concentration of MBSA. Levamisole administered 1 hr prior to MBSA challenge stimulated the DH response and this was optimal using subliminal sensitizing concentrations of antigen. A number of antirheumatic agents, immunomodulators mediator antagonists and antiallergies were subsequently examined using the subliminal sensitizing concentration of MBSA. The same drugs were also evaluated using a normal sensitizing procedure. These studies indicate that the sensitizing concentration of antigen is critical in establishing whether a drug will stimulate or suppress a DH response. |
