Resumo: The lectin from Dioclea grandiflora (Mart.) that selectively binds glucose and mannose, when subcutaneously injected in mouse induces an inflammatory cutaneous reaction whose histological analysis reveals an hemorrhagic ulceration with exudative reaction accompanied by an influx of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and giant cells. The presence of lymphocytes and plasma cells in the lesion was insignificant. In order to characterize the in vivo action of inflammatory factors generated by this lesion, distinct lines of mice were used: high and low antibody responder mice; the genetically selected mice to the acute phase of inflammatory reaction; lines of mice deficient in C5, a protein of the complement system. It is shown that the lectin of D. grandiflora acts as an inflammatory agent probably promoting exocytosis and release of mediators.
