The active Arthus reaction was completely inhibited in rabbits made thrombocytopenic with platelet antiserum. Platelets or some platelet factor is necessary for the development of immune vasculitis in this model. Since the classic Arthus reaction depends on the union of extravascular antigen with intravascular antibody, it is probable that the missing platelet factor is an agent that alters vascular permeability.

Article Synopsis
- Platelets play a crucial role in stopping bleeding during inflammation, but their behavior can change based on the specific context and the receptors involved, particularly β1 and β3 integrins.
- In experiments with mice, those lacking β3 integrins showed bleeding in various inflammation models, while those lacking β1 integrins did not, indicating that β3 is more critical for hemostasis.
- The study concluded that the necessity and interplay between β1 and β3 integrins in managing bleeding during inflammation are influenced by the type of inflammatory scenario encountered.

Pteropodine (PT) is a component of some plants with potentially useful pharmacological activities for humans. This compound has biomedical properties related to the modulation of the immune system, nervous system, and inflammatory processes. This study addresses the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant capacity of pteropodin in a murine model of arthritis and induced edema of the mouse ear.

Rhizome of has been used as a traditional medicine for treating kidney diseases in East Asian countries. Its inhibitory effects on hypersensitivity responses have been reported for methanol extracts, with alisol B 23-acetate (AB23Ac) being the most active constituent among six terpenes in inhibiting the direct passive Arthus reaction. However, whether AB23Ac has efficacy against allergic asthma has not been tested to date.
