  • Title: [Characteristics of the reaction of healthy human blood serum with the epidermis].
    Author: Gnezditskaia EV, Beletskaia LV.
    Journal: Biull Eksp Biol Med; 1982 Apr; 93(4):68-70. PubMed ID: 7044441.
    Abstract:
    Indirect immunofluorescence has shown that the blood serum of normal subjects reacts with cytoplasm antigens of epidermis differentiated cells in 100% of the cases. The level of antibodies and the immunomorphological picture of the reaction are marked by high constancy and intense fluorescence of the cytoplasm of epidermis differentiated cells, while the reaction with basal layer cell antigens is observed comparatively seldom and little pronounced. The authors discuss possible participation of antibodies contained by the normal blood serum and of their complexes with tissue antigens in the regulation of vital activity of the cells and immune response to the host antigens.
