title: [Study of the antibody-dependent lymphocytotoxicity test as a function of the nature of the antibodies].
abstract: It is well known that IgM antibodies are inactive for the LDA test. Moreover, this work showed 7 S IgM to be just as inactive as 19 S IgM. With HLA antibodies, usually IgG, this work showed that the LDA test was not inhibited by a temperature of + 15 instead of + 37 degrees C. With cold lymphocytotoxic antibodies 19 S and 7 S IgM the LDA test was negative even at + 15 degrees C (optimum temperature for these complement dependant lymphocytotoxic antibodies) with or without prolonged incubation. Under these same conditions, a negative result was obtained using auto-lymphocytes as a target. Finally, our results confirmed that IgM antibodies with anti-HLA activity could not act as mediators even for targets with corresponding HLA activity.
