The relative roles of genetic and environmental factors in the regulation of erythrocyte C3b receptor (ECR1) numbers in normal individuals.

abstract：:We recently showed that human thyroid epithelial cells, which are normally negative for HLA-DR molecules, express HLA-DR in thyroid autoimmunity. Furthermore, induction of HLA-DR on normal thyroid cells can be achieved by culture with plant lectins. We have now found that recombinant human interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma)...
