Mimicry of human histocompatibility HLA-B27 antigens by Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1986 Anti-HLA-B27 monoclonal antibody M2, which was relatively specific for human histocompatibility antigen HLA-B27, was used to test several bacteria, some of which could potentially induce chronic arthritis in HLA-B27-positive individuals. Using the Western blot procedure, we observed positive reactions with 80,000- and 60,000-dalton antigens with one ...

Flow cytometric HLA‐B27 screening: Cross‐reactivity patterns of commercially available anti–HLA‐B27 monoclonal antibodies with other HLA‐B antigens [PDF]
Cytometry Part B: Clinical Cytometry, 2003 AbstractBackgroundSome 50 clinical laboratories in the Benelux perform flow cytometric HLA‐B27 screening and participate in the Benelux external quality assessment scheme operational since 1995. Results from this scheme indicate that cross‐reactivity of HLA‐B27 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is a major problem.MethodsWe analyzed cross‐reactivity patterns
