Specific absorption of human serum albumin, immunoglobulin A, and immunoglobulin G with selected strains of group A and G streptococci.
Five gram-positive bacterial strains were selected for absorption studies of human serum samples. Strain AR1 (group A, M-type 1) and G148 (group G), with strong immunoglobulin G (IgG) binding capacities, and strain AW43 (group A, M-type 60), binding both IgA1 and IgA2, were compared with Staphylococcus aureus Cowan I and with Staphylococcus epidermidis L603. Both AR1 and G148 were capable of co...
متن کاملMaternal Serum C- Reactive Protein Concentration in Gestational Diabetes
OBJECTIVE: Low-grade systemic inflammation is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes. C-Reactive Protein (CRP), an acute phase protein produced by hepatocytes, may be associated with diabetes. This study aimed to compare serum levels of CRP in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), impaired glucose tolerance test and control subjects. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this ca...
متن کاملDetermination of Superficial Clefts on Fragment of Antigen Binding in Human Immunoglobulin G by Computational Immunology
Background: Immunoglobulins (Igs) are protective glycoproteins specifically identify and eradicate microbes. Fragment of antigen binding (Fab) is a portion of antibody which binds to antigen and consists of one variable and one constant domain of one heavy and one light chain. Idiotypes, epitopes situated on Igs variable region, could be exploited to monitor and target malignant B cells and are...
متن کاملRelative avidities of human immunoglobulin G antibodies for streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxins A and B.
In this pilot study, we investigated the relative avidities for streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxin A (SPE-A) and SPE-B of antibodies in sera from patients with fatal streptococcal toxic shock-like syndrome and from healthy individuals and in intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) preparations. We observed a great variation in the relative avidities of patient, control, and IVIG immunoglobulin G (IgG) ...
