articleOpen accessAbstract Human lymphocytes that have undergone concanavalin A-induced blastogenetic transformation demonstrate surface alpha-1-antitrypsin by immunofluorescence when examined after 72 hr of culture, whereas unstimulated cells do not. These results may indicate a role for alpha-1-antitrypsin in lymphocyte blastogenesis.

article1st authorCorrespondingImmunization of strain XIII guinea pigs with rabbit renal tubular basement membranes (TBM) in CFA consistently results in severe autoimmune tubulointerstitial nephritis (TN). Strain II guinea pigs similarly immunized do not develop this disease. F1 guinea pigs were found to be intermediate between inbred strain II and XIII animals with regard to extent of autoimmune TN and anti-TBM antibody production. The F1 X II backcrosses segregated into two groups with regard to antibody production and dise…
