Contrasting inflammatory responses in severe and non-severe community-acquired pneumonia.

abstract：:Using crossed immunoelectrophoresis, immunoelectrodiffusion, autoradiography, and equilibrium binding techniques, we demonstrate that the rat fetus, directly challenged in utero at 18 days by a single subcutaneous turpentine injection, presents a complex acute-phase plasma inflammatory response. A number of fetal seru...
