Abstract
Acute sialoadenitis was induced by instillation of normal human plasma into the parotid gland of specifically sensitized rats. Histologically, the sialoadenitis was characterized by an acute inflammatory infiltration and parenchymatous destruction. All rats had precipitating antibodies, but less than half exhibited delayed skin reactivity. It is suggested that antigen-antibody complexes formed in situ elicit an Arthus-type of reaction.
