Abstract
ACUTE pulmonary œdema occurs in pertussis inoculated mice injected with rabbit antisera to various mouse tumours1. The rabbit antibodies to mouse tumour antigens likely react with antigens present in mouse alveolar capillary endothelium to initiate a sequence of events leading to pulmonary œdema. Sections of œdematous lungs reveal a necrotizing alveolitis with a hyaline-like material lining the alveolar spaces.
