title: Multiple organ-reactivity of monoclonal autoantibodies to mouse erythrocytes.
abstract: Autoantibodies reacting with bromelain-treated autologous mouse red blood cells (Br-MRBC) are spontaneously produced by normal mice. In order to understand the biological significance of these autoantibodies, anti-Br-MRBC monoclonal autoantibodies have been prepared and studied for reactivity with a panel of frozen tissue sections from organs of normal mice by direct immunofluorescence. It has been found that the anti-Br-MRBC monoclonal autoantibodies are polyspecific, since they react with cells in multiple organs.
