Relationship of antibody affinity to onset of immune complex disease in New Zealand mice.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Affinity (KR) of antibody to human serum transferrin in New Zealand mice was measured by a globulin precipitation technique. KR was low in mice immunized early in life, increased with age of immunization up to 16-26 weeks, and then fell to low levels. KR in young and old NZB mice was increased by immunization with antigen in Freund's complete adjuvant. The correlation between low affinity antibody production and susceptibility to immune complex disease is discussed.

Abstract Background: In the serum of healthy people, IgG4 has lowest concentration among the different sub-classes of IgG. Elevation of serum IgG4 in response to chronic antigenic stimulation and inflammation has been reported. Inflammation, histopathologic lesions and systemic organ involvement have been reported in the IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD). In this article we review IgG4 unique f...

Background: Ofatumumab, an anti-CD20 mAb, was approved in 2009 for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia. This mAb acts through immune-mediated mechanisms, in particular complement-dependent cytotoxicity and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity by natural killer cells as well as antibody-dependent phagocytosis by macrophages. Apoptosis induction is another mechanism of this antibody...

Objective(s): This study aimed to explore the contribution of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) in the recruitment of B-cell and secretion of immunoglobulins (Igs) during cerebral tuberculosis (TB).Materials and Methods: In this work, the contributing role of TNF in regulating Ig secretions was investigated by comparing wild type TNF (TNFf/f),...
متن کاملGenetic studies of autoimmunity and retrovirus expression in crosses of New Zealand black mice. II. The viral envelope glycoprotein gp70
The retroviral envelope glycoprotein, gp70 was measured in the serum of New Zealand Black (NZB) and SWR mice and the progeny of their crosses. The serum gp70 values segregated to "NZB-like" and "SWR-like" levels in these mice. A complex mechanism determined the inheritance of NZB-like serum gp70 levels. We found that the factors determining the expression of this retroviral protein were indepen...
