“…In the present study, the response of SLE patients and a group of normal individuals to stimulation with Brucella antigen has been determined, and the titers of 19S (IgM) and 7S (IgG) Brucella antibody measured. Since natural antibodies to E. coli (7) and Shigella (8) are frequently found, the whole serum, 19S and 7S antibody titers of these antibodies were compared with the patient and control groups. METHODS Brucella immunization.…”

In order to determine the immunologic status and possible susceptibility to bacterial infection in children with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA), titers of hemagglutinating antibodies to E coli 055, E coli 086, common antigen, and Shigella polyvalent antigen were measured. Immunoglobulin G was the predominant antibody. IgA antibodies were found in higher titers in children with J RA. No significant differences were found between children with JRA and matched controls. These data show that children with JRA do not have any deficit in antibody production to specific bacterial antigens, and any increased appearance of infection in these children is more probably due to deficiencies in cellular factors.An increased susceptibility to systemic and often fatal infections has been reported in both JRA and adult rheumatoid arthritis (1,2). However relatively little is

Shigella flexneri antibody levels in healthy subjects from various regions of the United States.

Abstract: A survey of sera collected from seven geographic areas of the United States and Mexico for shigella agglutinating antibodies revealed considerable variation from one area to another in the number of sera with high titer levels. These findings are discussed.
