(1) The characteristics of an arterial wall chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (CS-PG) subfraction that binds avidly to low-density lipoproteins (LDL) was studied.
(2) There was found an insignificant prevalance of the antibody avidity in the patients with the forms of the disease of moderate severity and severe.
(3) In osteoarthritic cartilage, compared with normal cartilage, there was no increase in water binding but water content increased by 9 per cent and the avidity with which the newly bound water was held also increased.
(4) In our studies of the 131I-labeled anti-Thy 1.1 antibody treatment of murine lymphoma we have used cell binding assays with a combination of Lineweaver-Burk analysis to determine immunoreactivity and Scatchard analysis to determine antibody avidity.
(5) Potassium and K analogs (Tl, Rb, Cs) are avidly taken up into viable tumor cells whose Na+, K+-ATPase activity is elevated.
(6) The percentage of kidney-fixing antibody in each fraction and the degree of proteinuria induced as determined 24 h after injection increased with the avidity of the antibody fraction when equal doses were administered.
(7) The results also demonstrated that there was not any apparent correlation between the receptor-binding avidities and in vitro monooxygenase enzyme-induction potencies for the most active polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons.
(8) We studied techniques to accurately quantify the adherence of L-[35S]methionine-labeled Candida albicans to human umbilical vein endothelial cells in a 96-well microtiter plate system while avoiding specific problems related to Candida coadherence and avid binding to plastic.
(9) Furthermore, we conclude that the pre-killer cell is distinct from a memory T cell because: i) its conversion to an effector cell is antigen-independent and ii) because, unlike the memory cell, pre-killers do not bind avidly to allogeneic cell monolayers.
(10) Avidity was estimated in liquid phase from the dissociation rate of preformed complexes of antibody and 125-iodinated insulin.
(11) Antibodies produced by PC-specific clones have a more restricted pattern of avidities and resemble in quality anti-PC antibodies produced in vivo.
(12) Cold target inhibition studies confirmed the cross-reaction, and together with conjugate dissociation studies, indicated that cross-reaction to be of lower "avidity" than the specific recognition of SB2.
(13) Avid, Boticca.com is a fashion website, which is about as girly as it gets, but you've come at it from a hard engineering background, haven't you?
(14) Thus, the avidity measurement is useful in understanding the immunological events which underlie various clinicopathological features of SLE.
(15) The aggregation, although of slow onset, was persistent and of high avidity.
(16) Nonopsonized L. pneumophila were avidly phagocytized by alveolar macrophages.
(17) Thereafter, 27S species adsorbed avidly to it and collapsed into characteristic configurations containing four globular domains, each linked to the others by three approximately 33-nm struts.
(18) High avidity DNP-binding cells gave rise to predominantly high avidity anti-DNP-PFC.
(19) Firstly, FcRIII do not cluster lannic acid-modified erythrocytes avidly bound to neutrophils but did not trigger clustering of FcRII.
(20) The study has revealed a faintly pronounced inverse correlation between the degree of avidity of serum antibodies and the level of infectious antigenemia.
