Abstract excerpt
The effects of genes in the murine H2 region on basal immunoglobulin levels were investigated and ratios of IgG1/IgG2a were calculated, as low ratios indicate a Th1 cytokine mileu. H2b mice with B10 or BALB genetic backgrounds had higher levels of IgG2a than H2k and H2d congenic strains, and hence had low IgG1/IgG2a ratios. B10 (H2b) mice generally had high levels of IgG2b, IgG3, IgA and IgM, but this outcome was...
