Serum anti-Fx1A Ab IgG isotype switching and subclass production in HN were not altered by CD8+ T cell depletion. IgG subclasses were detected in similar proportions at 4 and 8 wk in CD8-depleted HN, ATx/HN, and normal HN groups. CFA controls did not mount an Fx1A Ab response. At 4 wk, only the Th2-mediated IgG1 response was significantly raised above controls. By 8 wk the IgG1 response had increased further, and a significant Th1 mediated IgG2a response was identified compared with CFA controls. There was no significant-IgG2b response. Values represent mean ± SEM (n = 5) of anti-Fx1A Ab levels, expressed as percentage binding of known strongly positive serum (Fx1A Ab titer 1:250), measured by ELISA. *P < 0.005 for comparisons between CFA controls and all other groups. ANOVA followed by Bonferroni-Dunn post hoc multiple comparisons test.
