Allen J.R. 1973. Tick resistence: basophils in skin reactions of resistant guinea pigs. International Journal for Parasitology, 3: 195-200. Guinea pigs acquired resistence to Der-
macentor andersoni larvae. Administration of the immunosuppressant. Methotrexate, prevented the acquisition of resistance. Resistant hosts allowed relatively very few larvae to engorge, and showed marked of the infested skin by basophil  leucocytes.  Particular high concentrations of basophils occured in vesicles in the hyperplastic epidermis beneath the mouthparts of attached larvae. These changes appear similar to Cutaneous Basophil Hypersensitivity reactions.
