Selective autoantibody production by Yaa+ B cells in autoimmune Yaa(+)-Yaa- bone marrow chimeric mice.
(Rockefeller University Press, 1991-11-01)
The accelerated autoimmune syndrome observed in BXSB/MpJ male mice is associated with the presence on the Y chromosome of an as yet unidentified mutant gene, designated Y chromosome-linked autoimmune acceleration (Yaa). ...
Prevention of systemic lupus erythematosus in autoimmune BXSB mice by a transgene encoding I-E alpha chain.
(1993-10-01)
Males from the BXSB murine strain (H-2b) spontaneously develop an autoimmune syndrome with features of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), which results in part from the action of a mutant gene (Yaa) located on the Y ...
High pathogenic potential of low-affinity autoantibodies in experimental autoimmune hemolytic anemia.
(1999-12-06)
To assess the potency of low-affinity anti-red blood cell (RBC) autoantibodies in the induction of anemia, we generated an immunoglobulin (Ig)G2a class-switch variant of a 4C8 IgM anti-mouse RBC autoantibody, and compared ...
Interleukin-4 protects against a genetically linked lupus-like autoimmune syndrome.
(1997-01-06)
Interleukin-4 (IL-4) provides support for humoral immune responses through upregulation of T helper (Th) type 2 cell differentiation, but it is not known whether IL-4 promotes antibody-mediated autoimmune diseases such as ...
