title: Oligoclonal beta-galactoside-specific gamma immunoglobulins allow the immunocytochemical detection of cellular antigenic determinants expressed in mouse brain after surgical injury.
abstract: Histological brain sections were probed with human oligoclonal lectin-like IgGs (L-IgG) purified from normal serum. In intact brain, antigenic determinants for these IgG were restricted to some blood vessel endothelial cells. By contrast, during the inflammatory reaction following a surgical injury, these determinants were detected at the cell surface of different cell types, within and near the lesion site. The cells reacting with L-IgG consisted of endothelial cell, mature astrocytes, activated microglial and ependymal cells.
