Abstract

Basophilic leukocytes constitute a significant proportion of the cellular infiltrates in many forms of delayed-in-onset hypersensitivity reactions in human beings, guinea pigs, and other animals. In this paper, I review current information on the role of basophils in the reactions, and present similarities and differences between Jones-Mote and classic delayed hypersensitivities.
