Ontogeny of membrane cofactor protein: phenotypic divergence in the fetal heart.

Lupus - 1 Aug 1995

Gorelick A, Oglesby T, Rashbaum W, Atkinson J, Buyon J P

Abstract excerpt

Human adult cells are protected from complement-induced damage in part by membrane cofactor protein (MCP, CD46). To examine fetal characteristics which might influence autoantibody-mediated diseases acquired in utero, such as heart block in neonatal lupus, the tissue expression of MCP was studied. Using a high ratio of acrylamide:bisacrylamide, immunoblots of tissues from six fetuses (aged 19-24 weeks) probed...
