title: [The 2-phase action on mice of immunoglobulins isolated from the blood of a myasthenia patient].
abstract: Single injection of Ig preparations from the myasthenia-patient-blood on C57Bl mice, revealed two phases in the development of the myasthenic syndrome. The first phase started one-two hours after the injection only of the IgM preparation in a dose 2-10 mg. This phase was in progress for two days. The second phase developed during the injection of either the Igm or IgG preparations in a dose 6-10 mg (IgG) of 2-10 mg (IgM). This phase was characterized by the appearance of long myasthenic disorders in two-three week time after the experiment. Some of these mice perished. It was assumed that the absence of strict correlation between the concentration of anti-AChR-IgG antibodies and the gravity of myasthenia is connected with the IgM participation in the pathogenesis of the myasthenia and/or with the appearance of secondary autoantibodies towards the targets which differ from AChR's myoneural synapsis.
