Abstract:
KM mice were orally immunized with formalized C. jejuni (CJ-S131 vaccine) for 16 weeks. The production kinetics of autoanti bodies against ss-DNA, ds-DNA, histories and extractable nuclear antigens (ENA) was investigated and two peaks of autoantibody production were observed within 16 weeks after immunizalion. The first peak appeared at 6th week after immunization when the positive percentage of autoantibody against histones (83%) and ENA (67%) was higher than that against ds-DNA (33%) and ss-DNA ( 0 %), and the second peak at 16th week when the positive percentage of anti-ds-DNA (50%) and anti-ss-DNA (83%) antibody higher than that of anti-histones (33%) and anti-ENA (33%) anti body. Natural autoanti bodies against nuclear acid (ds-DNA and ss-DNA) in the controlled mice could be detected, too, by ELISA, which raised with aging but obviously demonstrating individual difference; however, autoanti bodies to nucleoproteins (histones and ENA) could not be detected at the matched times. The results suggested that autoantibody against histones or ENA was more specific for autoimmune diseases than that against DNA, and might be of significance for earlier diagnosis of the systemic autoimmune diseases, e. g. SLE, in clinic.
