High titres of serum antinuclear antibodies, mostly directed against nucleolar antigens, are associated with the presence of coronary atherosclerosis.
BACKGROUND Inappropriate inflammation is a key mechanism in the development of atherosclerosis. Antibodies against components of the atherosclerotic lesion, in particular, oxidised low density lipoprotein, have been described. OBJECTIVE To determine whether a systemic autoimmune response, characterised by the presence of high titres of antinuclear antibodies, is associated with the presence o...

متن کاملHuman monoclonal antibodies directed against melanoma tumor-associated antigens.
To analyze the humoral immune response to melanoma, human-mouse hybridomas were generated by the fusions of regional lymph node lymphocytes of patients with the mouse myeloma cell line M5. Six stable hybridomas were cloned from six separate lymphocyte parents obtained from three patients. Ascites were obtained from nude mice after i.p. injection with cultured hybridoma cells. The monoclonal ant...
متن کاملSerum Thyroid Stimulating Hormone Levels Are Associated with the Presence of Coronary Atherosclerosis in Healthy Postmenopausal Women
OBJECTIVES Menopause is a natural aging process causing estrogen deficiency, accelerating atherogenic processes including dyslipidemia. Prevalence of thyroid dysfunction is also high in postmenopausal women, and it is known to elevate the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Therefore, we are to study on the associations in between serum thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and prevalence of CVD ...
