Implementation of an extended ZINB model in the study of low levels of natural gastrointestinal nematode infections in adult sheep [PDF]
Background: In this study, two traits related with resistance to gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN) were measured in 529 adult sheep: faecal egg count (FEC) and activity of immunoglobulin A in plasma (IgA).

The transfer of IgA from mucus to plasma and the implications for diagnosis and control of nematode infections [PDF]
Immunoglobulin A (IgA) activity has been associated with reduced growth and fecundity of Teladorsagia circumcincta. IgA is active at the site of infection in the abomasal mucus. However, while IgA activity in abomasal mucus is not easily measured in live

FcR gamma chain has previously been shown to interact with the TCR-CD3 complex, the IgE Fc receptor I (Fc epsilon RI), and the class I and IIIA IgG receptors (Fc gamma RI and Fc gamma RIIIa). Here, we demonstrate that the Fc receptor gamma chain associates with Fc alpha R in transfected IIA1.6 B lymphocytes. Fc alpha R could be expressed at the surface

Reversibility of lymphomas and lymphoproliferative lesions developing under cyclosporin-steroid therapy [PDF]
Post-transplant lymphomas or other lymphoproliferative lesions, which were usually associated with Epstein-Barr virus infections, developed in 8, 4, 3, and 2 recipients, respectively, of cadaveric kidney, liver, heart, and heart-lung homografts ...

The specificity of chain interactions among immunoglobulins. Combinations of γ chains with κ chains of the same subgroup as in the parent immunoglobulin G [PDF]
1. The specificity of combination of heavy and light chains from selected human immunoglobulins was examined in the light of greater structural information than in previous studies. Heavy (γ) chains from immunoglobulin G (κ) myeloma proteins were allowed to combine with their homologous light (κ) chains or with other κ chains of the same variable ...

A Case Report of Atypical Presentation of Multiple Myeloma on Serum Protein Electrophoresis [PDF]
Multiple myeloma is a group of B-cell disorders resulting in the secretion of a specific and unique monoclonal immunoglobulin (M-protein). Protein electrophoresis is advised whenever multiple myeloma is suspected.

A new transcript in the TCRB locus unveils the human ortholog of the mouse pre-Dß1 promoter [PDF]
Introduction: While most transcripts arising from the human T Cell Receptor locus reflect fully rearranged genes, several germline transcripts have been identified. We describe a new germline transcript arising from the human TCRB locus.

Immunoglobulin G Biosynthesis in a Human Lymphoblastoid Cell Line [PDF]
The cultured human B lymphoblastoid cell line Maja synthesises two forms of the ‐γ heavy chain of immunoglobulin G (IgG) that differ in apparent molecular weight. The lower‐molecular‐weight form is secreted into the culture medium as a water‐soluble product in association with light chains and comigrates on dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gels with ...
