Hidden Allotypes and R.A.
Home Article 1

 

grubb.jpg (11.6 kb) This website concerns human immunoglobulin allotypes and their relation to Rheumatoid Arthritis (R.A). World-wide studies show that R.A. patients are specially prone to make an immune response to allotypes in the Gm system. Based on gene technology we suggest an interpretation of the relation between anti-Gm's and R.A., which is startlingly unexpected. A new approach to the study of the initiation of R.A. is open.

The support and encouragment during many years of Prof. Frank Wollheim, Dept. Rheumatology, University Hospital, Lund, is greatfully appreciated!
