Effect of oral immunization with recombinant urease on murine Helicobacter felis gastritis.

abstract：:The binding of (125)I-labeled S component to rabbit polymorphonuclear leukocytes was found to be concentration dependent and saturable at 37 degrees C. Scatchard analysis of the binding curve gave a straight line, indicating that S component binds to a single population of sites. The dissociation constant, K(D), deriv...
