Characterisation of Liver membrane autoantibodies determined by indirect immunofluorescence.
Indirect immunofluorescence studies were performed using sera and IgG-Fab2 fragments from patients with chronic active hepatitis (CAH) who were positive for a liver membrane antibody (LMA). The specificity was investigated using hepatocytes from humans as well as rabbit, rat, guinea pig and monkey. Only sera also positive for smooth muscle antibody gave staining of lymphocytes and absorption wi...
متن کاملOriginal Approach for Automated Quantification of Antinuclear Autoantibodies by Indirect Immunofluorescence
INTRODUCTION Indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) is the gold standard method for the detection of antinuclear antibodies (ANA) which are essential markers for the diagnosis of systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases. For the discrimination of positive and negative samples, we propose here an original approach named Immunofluorescence for Computed Antinuclear antibody Rational Evaluation (ICARE) ba...
متن کاملFractionation of the liver membrane lipoprotein (LSP) and characterisation of its antigenic determinants by autoantibodies and a heterologous anti-serum.
Sera from 50 patients with chronic active liver disease were investigated by radioimmunoprecipitation test for autoantibodies against human and rabbit liver membrane lipoprotein (LSP), and a human kidney equivalent protein. Twenty-one of 50 chronic active liver disease sera were positive for autoantibodies against human liver membrane lipoprotein. Eleven of 50 sera reacted with rabbit liver mem...
متن کاملTyping Haemophilus ducreyi by indirect immunofluorescence assay.
Rabbits were inoculated with untreated whole cells of 16 strains of Haemophilus ducreyi. Homologous titres in an indirect immunofluorescence test ranged from 1/320 to 1/1280. No cross reactions, or very few, were observed between antisera to these strains and 22 other (possible taxonomically related) species, strains, and genera. A large diversity in types of antigen was observed among the stra...
متن کاملDirect and indirect immunofluorescence.
Immunofluorescence is a valuable auxiliary diagnostic tool for autoimmune bullous diseases and inflammatory disorders, since their clinical and histopathologic findings may be inconclusive. It is a feasible laboratory method that requires experienced technicians and detects in situ and circulating immune deposits that may be involved in the pathogenesis of such skin diseases.
