Abstract
Conclusion
1. The subcutaneous administration of large doses of sodium salicylate to rabbits well in advance of the initial contact with horse serum antigen prevents the development of arterial lesions.
2. The arterial lesions fail to develop even though circulating antibody is present in moderate quantity.
3. It is believed that the lesions fail to develop because there is no antigen-antibody reaction, and that this reaction can not take place because salicylate has prevented antigen from uniting with tissue cells.
