title: Sequential study of C 1 q-binding substances and of anti-DNA antibodies in (NZB X NZW)F1 mice: evidence for an acute phase of the lupus disease in 2-month-old mice.
abstract: Longitudinal studies of C 1 q and DNA-binding substances were performed in sera from 38 (NZB X NZW)F1 female mice between days 39 and 150 of life. Results suggest a two-phase evolution of circulating immune complexes and anti-DNA antibodies in young (NZB X NZW)F1 mice and show the existence of an acute phase of the disease during the second month of life of these mice.
