After providing the sensitization he then challenged the rats with known provoking factors including metal salts, albumin, and trauma, which induced calcium deposition and subsequent inflammatory necrosis of the skin and subcutaneous tissue.
Thus, the present definitions of habituation and primary/secondary sensitization provide a unified theoretical framework that reconciles the dual-process theory and varying definitions of sensitization.
This primer describes covert sensitization, provides examples and notes representative research.
Respiratory sensitization provides a case study for a new approach to chemical safety evaluation, as the prevalence of respiratory sensitization has increased considerably over the last decades, but animal and/or human experimental/predictive models are not currently available.
This assay provides extensive allergen sensitization information while using only limited resources, supporting the hypothesis that allergen microarray technology is a more efficient and economically feasible diagnostic that currently used approaches.
UNICEF is providing vaccines and sensitization materials for this event, the first of its kind in the conflict-affected state, in addition to supporting the campaign's operational costs.
Specifically, if the signaling of an activating receptor, such as CD16 or natural killer group 2, member D (NKG2D), dominates, NK cells will kill target cells without prior sensitization, which provide the rapid, first-line defense mechanism.
Recent studies of animal models provide support for central sensitization of nociceptive pathways [ 7, 8].
