Excerpt

Five reviews, of immune complexes in human diseases; schistosomiasis, particularly the role of eosinophils; granulomatous inflammations; Langerhans cells and their immunologic functions; and histamine release in anaphylactic and anaphylactoid reactions. The "extraordinary diversification taking place in laboratory techniques applied to . . . identification and measurement of immune complexes in vivo and in vitro" is illustrated in the review of immune complexes and further in the review on the mechanisms of histamine release.
