title: Evidence for an absence of cross-reactivity between the human beta2-microblobulin and human IgG allotypes and subclasses.
abstract: Six beta2-microglobulins were isolated from the urine of six patients with renal tubular dysfunction. Cross-reactivity between these beta2-microglobulins and antigenic determinants of different IgG allotypes and subclasses was investigated. No evidence of cross-reactivity was found. Some hypotheses are discussed concerning these results.
