Methods Platelet isolation. Platelets were separated from other cells by a modification of the
method of Zim-merman and Kolb [3]. Pooled human 0, Rh-nega-tive platelet concentrate …

A slowly progressive autoimmune kidney disease was induced in Sprague Dawley rats by
subcutaneous injection of a chemically modified kidney antigen (rKF3), incorporated into …

In the present article, we describe an antigen‐specific down‐regulation of a pathogenic
autoantibody (aab)‐mediated disease process in an experimental autoimmune kidney …

The effects of ciclosporin on active Heymann's nephritis starting at different times after
induction was studied. When given at the time of antigen injection, ciclosporin blocked both …

An autoimmune kidney disease morphologically and functionally similar to Heymann
nephritis (HN) was induced in mature male Sprague Dawley rats by repeated weekly IP …

The purpose of the study was to find out if a new modified vaccination technique would be
effective in downregulating immunopathological events during the course of an …

A slowly progressive Heymann nephritis (SPHN) was induced in three groups of rats by
weekly injections of a chemically modified renal tubular antigen in an aqueous medium. A …

We investigated the effect of proteolytic enzyme treatment on the course of passive
Heymann nephritis (PHN). PHN was induced by intravenous injection of Heymann antibody …

Two types of experimental GN induced by immunological procedures, Heymann-type AIC-
GN and NTN, were treated with anticoagulant agents. Dipyridamole, aspirin, ticlopidine or …

We describe a new vaccination method called modified vaccination technique (MVT). The
technique is able to achieve downregulation of pathogenic autoimmune events leading to a …
