Preliminary observations on the effect of heterologous anti-lymphocytic globulin on autologous immune complex nephritis in rats

PMCID: PMC1579129  PMID: 5359960

Abstract

The development of autologous immune complex nephritis induced by repeated intraperitoneal injections of chemically modified homologous kidney mitochondria in Freund's complete adjuvant in an inbred strain of rats can be delayed in its onset and greatly reduced in its severity by the administration of heterologous anti-lymphocytic globulin.
