Mannose-Binding Lectin Deficiency in Brazilian Patients with Spondyloarthritis.

abstract：:Mice were immunized with 14 free (i.e. not conjugated to any carrier) synthetic peptides representing the entire human hemoglobin alpha-chain. Antibodies against each peptide were determined using solid phase radioimmunoassay, both with free peptides and peptides coupled to a protein carrier as the coating antigen. It...
