Cellular basis for the age-associated increase in autoimmune reactions (1990)

Weksler, Marc E., Schwab, Rise, Huetz, Francois, Kim, Young Tai, Coutinho, Antonio

The mechanisms that lead to the increased expression of autoantibodies with age are poorly understood. We have studied the number, size, and density of spleen and peritoneal cells from young and old...

Studies on the control of antibody synthesis: III. Changes in heterogeneity of antibody affinity during the course of the immune response

Werblin, T. P., Kim, Young Tai, Quagliata, F., Siskind, G. W.

The distribution and heterogeneity of antibody affinity has been followed with time after immunization. Initially, a symmetrical distribution of heterogeneous low affinity antibody molecules is...

Studies on antigenic competition: III. Effect of antigenic competition on antibody affinity*

Kim, Young Tai, Merrifield, Nancy, Zarchy, T., Brody, N. I., Siskind, G. W.

The effect of antigenic competition on antibody affinity was studied using a haptenic system in guinea-pigs. A moderate depression in the amount of antibody formed, as a result of antigenic...

Studies on the control of antibody synthesis. VI. Effect of antigen dose and time after immunization on antibody affinity and heterogeneity in the mouse

Kim, Young Tai, Siskind, G. W.

The effect of antigen dose and time after immunization on the affinity of serum antihapten antibody was studied in the mouse by the Farr technique and by equilibrium dialysis. A progressive increase...
