Absence of oligoclonal IgA in CSF and serum of multiple sclerosis patients.
CSF and serum from patients with MS and other neurologic diseases were analyzed by isoelectric focusing (IEF) in polyacrylamide gel and immunofixation with specific anti human IgA sera. The IgA band patterns seen in pH 4.5-6.0 region were rather diffuse and lacked oligoclonal feature.
