We investigated the effect of a monoclonal antibody against CD2 molecules (OX34) in
preventing the induction of experimental autoimmune myocarditis (EAM) induced by …

Autoimmune myocarditis is a T-cell-mediated autoimmune disease. CD4-positive T cells are
believed to be the most important for the initiation and mediation of the disease. This study …

We investigated the effects of anti‐αβ T cell receptor antibody in rat experimental
autoimmune myocarditis (HAM), using a new animal model of autoimmune myocarditis …

抄録 Recently, we have established a novel experimental model for autoimmune
myocarditis. Acute serious myocarditis can be induced in Lewis rats by immunization with …

The heart is a target organ in several autoimmune diseases, and therefore it is important to
understand more about the effector cells involved in immune-mediated mechanisms of …

Experimental autoimmune myocarditis (EAM) is elicited in certain strains of mice by
immunizing with mouse cardiac myosin. Concomitant with the onset of myocardial …

Experimental induction of most autoimmune diseases appears to depend on the activation
of CD4+ T helper cells, while CD8+ lymphocytes may have a role in disease progression. To …

Porcine cardiac myosin induced severe myocarditis in Lewis rats, similar to that seen after
immunization with human or rat cardiac myosin. We investigated the localization of …

Experimental autoimmune myocarditis (EAM) resembles the lethal giant cell myocarditis
seen in humans, and the recurrent forms lead to dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). EAM in rats …

BACKGROUND To elucidate the mechanisms of immune-related myocardial injuries, we
examined whether autoimmune myocarditis was passively transferable by use of humoral or …
