Medical Hydrology and Balneology: Environmental Aspects

Medical Hydrology and Balneology: Environmental Aspects
1. the increase of the blood vessels caliber.
2.vessels of neoangiogenesis.
3.perivascular inflammatory infiltrate with: lymphocytes, plasmocytes and
Rouget cells
• Deep dermis: slight vascular congestion, and perivascular lymphocyte infiltrate
• Muscles:
1.unmodified muscular fibers,
2.moderate vascular congestion.
• Limphocytes:
1.positive reaction at CD45;
2. negative reaction at CD20.
Conclusions
Because at the witness batch we haven’t noticed the presence of the
neoangiogenesis vessels, we presume that a biochemical component of the
mud is responsible for its production .But, we haven’t identified the mud
factor and mechanism that produces the stimulation of this process.
Because the increase of the caliber of the blood vessels were found at all
batchs it might be produced by the heat action;
The presence of the perivascular inflammatory infiltrate might be linked to
the intense antigenic stimulation produced by the application of mud on the
entire tegument.
Absence of B lymphocyte is due to the end of their task and transformation
into plasmocyte and Rouget cells and presence of T lymphocyte is due to
their implication into the specific immune response, after the antigens are
processed by B lymphocyte.
Neoangiogenesis underline the stimulation of reparatory capacity of the
skin.
