[Serial tests of the change in concentration of circulating immune complexes in healthy subjects and in tumor patients].
Authors performed by using various tests serial examinations of the circulating immune complex (IC) concentration in healthy persons, untreated rats, as well as in patients with multiple myeloma or leukemia, and in immunocytoma bearing rats. A characteristic fluctuation of the IC values has been observed in the untreated rats and the healthy persons. The discrepant IC values obtained in the identical sample with the different tests suggest the heterogeneity of IC components. As compared to healthy individuals a significantly higher fluctuation of IC values has been found characteristic in immunocytoma. Authors analyzed the composition of IC and discussed the possible importance of the tumor specific antigens and the natural antibodies reacting with them.
