title: [Autoantibodies to different layers of epidermis during immunization of BALB/c mice with a culture of Group A Streptococcus treated with pepsin].
abstract: As revealed in the indirect immunofluorescence test, antibodies to the cross-reacting group A streptococcal polysaccharide determinant (A-PS), common to the antigen of the basal cell layer of the epidermis, regularly occur at the end of the first cycle and disappear after further immunization of BALB/c mice with the pepsin-treated culture of group A streptococci. This model may be used for the study of antibodies to A-PS, cross-reacting with the cells of the basal layer of the epidermis, in the development of the autoimmune process linked++ with group A streptococcal infection.
