IgG subclasses in human chronic schistosomiasis: over-production of schistosome-specific and non-specific IgG4

Comparison of relevance of specific IgG4 and specific IgG measurement in human plasma samples

PPD-specific IgG and IgG subclasses in the sera of pulmonary tuberculosis patients.

This study was performed to characterize the humoral immune responses with isotype profiles in Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. PPD-Specific IgG and IgG subclasses were measured using ELISA in 212 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. The values of PPD-specific IgG were significantly higher in pulmonary tuberculosis patients than those in the control group, and were correlated to the sever...

Influence of allergen-specific immunotherapy on allergen-specific IgG subclasses in dogs with atopic dermatitis

Evaluation of cysticercus-specific IgG (total and subclasses) and IgE antibody responses in cerebrospinal fluid samples from patients with neurocysticercosis showing intrathecal production of specific IgG antibodies.

In the present study, an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) standardized with vesicular fluid of Taenia solium cysticerci was used to screen for IgG (total and subclasses) and IgE antibodies in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples from patients with neurocysticercosis showing intrathecal production of specific IgG antibodies and patients with other neurological disorders. The following resu...

production and characterization of mouse monoclonal antibodies recognizing human pan-igg specific conformational or linear epitopes

background: pan-igg specific monoclonal antibodies (mabs) are essential tools for assessment of humoral immunity, immune deficiency and gammopathy. in this study, four hybridoma clones producing mabs with different specificities for human igg isotypes were established. methods: splenocytes from balb/c mice immunized with fc fractions of human igg were fused with sp2/0 myeloma cells. hybridoma c...
