Catecholamine- and endotoxin-influenced cutaneous basophil hypersensitivity in chickens

1991

Brown-Borg, H.M. | Edens, F.W. | Grant, P.M.

1. Catecholamines suppress cutaneous basophil hypersensitivity (CBH) to intradermal phytohemagglutinin (PHA-P) challenge in chickens. 2. E. coli 0127:B8 endotoxin, reserpine, and propranolol prevented a norepinephrine-induced suppression of CBH. 3. PHA-P induced CBH appeared to be mediated through a beta-adrenergic receptor mechanism associated with plasma corticosterone in chickens.
