Abstract:
:Immunoglobulin classes and subclasses of sperm immobilizing antibodies (SI-Abs) in the sera of sterile women were determined by the absorption of patients' sera with Staphylococcus aureus and immunoadsorbents bound with class or subclass-specific anti-human immunoglobulin antibodies. Among 18 patients' sera tested, 16 had the IgG-dominant SI-Abs and the remaining 2 sera contained IgM-dominant SI-Abs. From the former patients' sera, 9 were further studied to determine the IgG subclasses; 6 of them had IgG1-dominant SI-Abs, one IgG2-dominant, and in the other two IgG1 and IgG2 were equally dominant. Interestingly, SI-Ab activities in 6 of the 9 patients' sera increased after absorption of IgG4 subclass and the addition of IgG4 purified from an SI-positive patient to the same patient's serum diminished the SI-Ab activities.
