Autoantibodies detected in rabbits hyperimmunized with group A, C, and G streptococcal vaccines
Year: 1977
Type: article
Abstract: Rabbits hyperimmunized with group A, C, and G streptococcal vaccines developed autoantibodies with affinities for different tissues (smooth muscle, cytoplasmic, and myocardial antibodies) and for autologous proteins (anti-albumin and anti-immunoglobulin antibodies). The presence of anti-albumin and smooth muscle antibodies, associated with a high level of immunoglobulin, suggests the development of hepatic disorders in the hyperimmunized rabbits.
