Avridine is a potent synthetic adjuvant that can induce arthritis is most rat strains. The clinical appearance and histopathology of avridine-induced arthritis show great similarity to other arthritis models such as collagen-induced arthritis. In LEW and DA rats the avridine-induced
Different immunomodulators have been previously tested in our laboratory as enhancers of the specific immune response to FMDV vaccines in a murine model [2-4]. Here, we present results of two of these immunomodulators, a water-soluble fraction of the cell wall

Little is known about the tissue reactions to various implant materials which coincide with an inflammatory reaction. We used the avridine arthritis rat model to evaluate the tissue response in the synovial, interstitial and subcutaneous tissues after implant insertion. Quantitative

The effects of a mycobacterial 71-kD hsp antigen have been investigated for its ability to modulate arthritis in rats. Subcutaneous injection (base of tail) of increasing amounts of hsp71 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) produced dose-dependent differential inhibitory effects on induction

Neonatal Wistar rats were injected intraperitoneally with either 20 mu g OM-89 at birth and on day 3 after birth or 2 mg three times weekly until 200 g body weight. At this weight, groups were either implanted subcutaneously with
