Abstract
As far as the contemporary immunological concepts are concerned, the followings are recognized as facts: (1) All of autoimmune diseases are caused by combinations of organ-specific antibodies and cytolytic T lymphocytes. (2) All of allergic diseases are caused by combinations of allergen-specific antibodies and mast cells. and (3) Equilibrium states exist among antibody molecules in the vicinity of their receptors on the surface of leucocytes. In my opinion, which occurred to me incidentally, an extremely useful point of view could be delineated. Namely, based on the existence of equilibrium state among antibody molecules in the vicinity of their receptors, replacements of specific antibodies with non-specific antibodies would be possible if the latter were accumulated in the vicinity of receptors of antibody molecules. In order to accumulate non-specific antibody molecules, a repetition of intradermal injections with a non-specific antigen preparation is necessary. As an alternative method, intra-venous infusions of saline solution of gamma-globulin might be suggested. However, this method is dangerous
because anti-gamma-globulin antibodies could be produced after a large number of its infusions and an anaphylactic reaction may occur.
