Fetal VDJ gene repertoire in rabbit: evidence for preferential rearrangement of VH1.

abstract：:Cartilage-specific proteins are considered potential autoantigens that could continuously fuel autoimmune responses directed to the joints in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Using recombinant chimeric collagen type II we have identified one major type II collagen (CII) epitope (denoted U1) recognized by RA sera. The U1 epi...
