Production of High Affinity Autoantibodies in Autoimmune New Zealand Black/New Zealand White F1 Mice Targeted with an Anti-DNA Heavy Chain
1 Apr 1999
Abstract excerpt
Lupus-prone, anti-DNA, heavy (H) chain "knock-in" mice were obtained by backcrossing C57BL/6 mice, targeted with a rearranged H chain from a VH11(S107)-encoded anti-DNA hybridoma (D42), onto the autoimmune genetic background of New Zealand Black/New Zealand White (NZB/NZW) F1 mice. The targeted female mice developed typical lupus serologic manifestations, with the appearance of transgenic IgM anti-DNA...
