title: Tissue antigens and cytotoxic antibodies in polycythaemia rubra vera.
abstract: The distribution of tissue antigens for 22 antigens was studied in 46 patients suffering from polcythaemia rubra vera (PRV), using antibody containing sera from 80 multigravidae. The incidence of HL-A5 was significant higher and that of HL-A7 significant, while the frequency of HL-A13 was remarkably lower than in the normal population. No antibodies against erythrocytes, thrombocytes or lymphocytotoxic ones could be demonstrated.
