Abstract excerpt
The liver specific F alloantigen is a highly conserved abundant protein found in hepatic cytoplasm; smaller amounts are detected in renal tubule cells and the perikaryon cells of the central nervous system. Although the biological function of the F alloantigen is unknown, the immune response to F has been extensively studied as a murine model of tolerance and autoimmunity. Murine F exists in two allelic forms,...
