Abstract
Foreign protein injections (hyposensitization) given for one year to human asymptomatic asthmatics did not increase their serum total lipids or lipoprotein levels, as they apparently did in rabbits fed a lipid-rich, cholesterol-poor diet. Serum total protein and immunoglobulin levels for IgA, IgM and IgG for the asthmatics and controls were no different.
