  • Title: [Antibodies to Klebsiella pneumoniae in ankylosing spondylitis].
    Author: Mateicka F, Kozáková D, Cebecauer L, Ondrasík M, Bosmanský K.
    Journal: Cas Lek Cesk; 1989 Jan 27; 128(5):132-4. PubMed ID: 2676185.
    Abstract:
    The authors investigated the incidence of antibodies against Klebsiella pneumoniae and E. coli in a group of patients with ankylosing spondylitis and in a group of healthy controls in all main immunoglobulin classes. The results revealed that in patients with ankylosing spondylitis there is a significantly higher incidence of specific antibodies of class IgA against Klebsiella pneumoniae and E. coli. This supports the thesis on the aetiopathogenetic interrelationship between enteric bacteria and the development of ankylosing spondylitis.
