Suppression of reaginic antibody (IgE) formation in mice by treatment with anti-mu antiserum
نویسندگان
چکیده
Neonatally initiated injection of anti-mu antiserum in mice has been shown to suppress the formation of reaginic antibodies in response to infection with the intestinal nematode, Nippostrongylus brasiliensis. This observation supports the hypothesis that IgE-producing cells arise from IgM-bearing precursors.

Immunologic and cellular changes accompanying the therapy of pollen allergy.
We had found previously that children with ragweed hay fever were somewhat less symptomatic after preseasonal immunization with large doses of ragweed pollen extract than were placebo-treated children. To study further the immunologic changes which accompany immunotherapy, these children were treated again the following year. Each patient served as his own control. Serum blocking (IgG) antibody...
متن کاملAbrogation by subsequent feeding of antibody response including IgE, in parenterally immunized mice
We have investigated the possibility of oral administration of ovalbumin (OVA) to prevent a secondary antibody response and interrupt reaginic antibody production. Repeated feeding seems necessary for both. Quality of results was dependent on the number of ingestions. Differences in abrogation of antibody response between mice strains were observed. Best results were obtained with AKR mice, goo...
متن کاملRegulation of reaginic antibody production in mice. I. Suppression by antigen of IgE antibody production in vitro
Regulation of IgE production by antigen in a primed murine splenic lymphocyte culture system was described. Maximum IgE antibody production was found to occur when cells were cultured in the absence of exogenously added antigen. A cells and T lymphocytes did not affect the production of anti-DNP IgE antibody. By using a hapten-carrier antigen system (DNP-EA) for priming mice in vivo, it was fou...
متن کاملPHYSIOLOGY OF IgD
Classic studies by Rowe et al . (1) in the human and by Vitetta and coworkers (2) in the mouse have established that IgD is a major membrane immunoglobulin . This has led to a variety of studies and speculation regarding its biological function . Based upon the effect of anti-IgD on the in vitro primary response, Cambier et al . (3) suggested that the presence of IgD on the cell surface was cri...

SJL mice were immunized with 1 microng dinitrophenylated keyhole limpet hemocyanin in 1 mg Al(OH)3. The mice were infected 21 days later with 750 third stage larvae of Nippostrongylus brasiliensis. On day 35, 14 days after infection, they were injected with 1 microng DNP-N, brasiliensis extract (Nb) in 1 mg Al(OH)3. In order to obtain high titer and persistent anti-DNP IgE antibody the mice wer...
