IgG immune deposits in glomerular lesions of young New Zealand Black mice.

IgG immune deposits in glomerular lesions were found in 62% of 4-week-old mice born from anti-DNA antibody positive mothers but not in the mice born from anti-DNA antibody negative ones. In the former mice anti-DNA antibody producing cells could not be detected in spite of the presence of antibody. These results indicate that maternal anti-DNA antibody might be responsible for the development o...

Abundances of thirteen trace elements obtained by laser ablation ICP-MS analyses (using the NIST SRM 610 glass reference material) were c...
