(n.) A place of meeting for discussion.
(n.) The flourish sounded on a horn by a huntsman. See Mot, n., 3, and Mort.
(n.) A small particle, as of floating dust; anything proverbially small; a speck.
Example Sentences:
(1) These suggest that this response is associated to a delayed type hypersensitivity of Jones-Mote type.
(2) The reaction appeared to be based on tuberculin type and Jones-Mote type of reactions.
(3) The Jones-Mote type of DTH, even modified by cyclophosphamide pretreatment, produced a significant local inflammatory reaction which was unable to destroy tumor cells.
(4) I once saw a merlin above Burgh Castle spiral in a relentless tight corkscrew as it pursued a skylark that steepled until it was only a dust mote.
(5) Thus, basophils occurred in human tuberculin and Jones-Mote reactions and were not a distinguishing feature of Jones-Mote reactions.
(6) Similar treatment protocols, however, did not enhance Jones-Mote (cutaneous basophil) hypersensitivity to OVA or contact sensitivity reactions to dinitrofluorobenzene.
(7) Thus, hapten-specific cutaneous basophil reactions were present in guinea pigs immunized with CFA for classical delayed hypersensitivity, and in animals immunized with IFA for Jones-Mote reactions.
(8) M. leprae antigens normally elicit this Jones-Mote type of DH.
