but was not rendered free from bacterial multiplication. In 

 acute alcoholics, foreign protein therapy may be dangerous.

Non-specific reaction

Nonspecific protein therapy develops resistance to toxic or 

 proteln-spllt products, thereby Increasing tolerance. The 

 enzyme systems mobilize and leukocytes are Increased. Anti- 

 body production may be Increased. Treatment should begin early 

 In the course of Infection. At this time, cellular permeability 

 is increased, and a local inflammation reaction appears. Later 

 cellular resistance to intoxication is active, but cellular 

 permeability decreases.

Protein therapy and nonspecific resistance 



New York, 1922, p. 90 



The author quotes Luke on the favorable effects which pyrogen 

 injections afford in infectious processes. Stimulation of 

 thermal centers in the brain produces a mobilization of antibody 

 defenses which are progressively reduced in progressive infections

The Initial leukopenia and succeeding leukocytosis after paren- 

 teral injection of "foreign" proteins may be noted likewise 

 when methylene blue (or yatren) is administered orally.
