Antibodies against nicotinic acetylcholine receptor and skeletal muscle in human and experimental myasthenia gravis.

abstract：:Experimental amyloidosis was induced in mice by intraperitoneal injections of endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide (LPS)). In addition to LPS, a group of mice received high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-SAA complexes isolated from human acute-phase serum, whereas a group of control mice received saline in addition to LPS. Isolat...
