A review is given with 2 refs. Hemolytic disease of the newborn is an often fatal condition of some newborn babies due to the immunogenicity of their Rh D pos. erythrocytes in the Rh D neg. mother. This condition can be prevented by injecting anti-Rh D ant ...
Although large human populations have been safely immunized against tuberculosis with two live vaccines, Mycobacterium bovis BCG or Mycobacterium microti, the vole bacillus, the molecular basis for the avirulence of these vaccine strains remains unknown. C ...
The development of a vaccine to provide protective immunity to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), the virus causing AIDS, would be the most practical method to control its spread. Subunit vaccines consisting of virus envelope glycoproteins, produ ...
The protective efficacy of a p55 tumor necrosis factor receptor immunoadhesin (TNFR-IgG) was compared with that of an anti-TNF monoclonal antibody (MAb) in a rat endotoxic shock model. TNFR-IgG (5 mg/kg), given 30 min before endotoxin (LPS), attenuated LPS ...
The recent identification of tumor Ags as potential vaccines has prompted the search for efficient adjuvants and delivery systems, especially in the case of peptide-based vaccination protocols. Here, we investigated the adjuvant potential of the recombinan ...
The hybridoma cell line ZAC3 expresses Vibrio cholerae lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-specific mouse IgA mols., as a heterogeneous population of monomeric (IgAm), dimeric (IgAd), and polymeric (IgAp) forms. We describe a gentle method combining ultrafiltration, ...
Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv contains 67 PE-PGRS genes, with multiple tandem repetitive sequences, encoding closely related proteins that are exceptionally rich in glycine and alanine. As no functional information was available, 10 of these genes were ...
Natural antibodies provide an early defense mechanism against pathogens, show a frequent self-reactivity, and are present throughout life. Two questions concern the physiological control of self-reactivity and the pathogenetic link to autoimmune disease. H ...
Monoclonal IgA antibodies have been produced by a hybridoma cell line grown in different bioreactors using serum-contg. and protein-free media in both basal and fortified versions. The effects of culture conditions on IgA prodn. and quality were studied us ...
