IEF, using 6 M urea, provides a unique opportunity to analyze the spectrotypes of antibodies in immune complexes (IC) in vivo. Using this technique, we have analyzed the clonotypes of anti-DNA antibodies expressing specific Id in the circulating IC of patients with active lupus nephritis. Serum anti-ssDNA and anti-dsDNA antibodies showed heterogeneous spectrotypes. The antibodies isolated from circulating IC had a restricted clonotype and a neutral charge and were directed mainly to ssDNA and, to a lesser extent, to dsDNA. These samples failed to form complexes with DNA when they were subjected to absorption to a DNA-coupled Sepharose column. Anti-DNA antibodies expressed specific Id, termed O-81 or NE-1, which were detected only in the IC of patients with active lupus nephritis. Anti-DNA clonotypes, including O-81 and NE-1 idiotypes, were also found in the eluates of renal glomeruli of lupus patients. These results indicate that subpopulations of anti-DNA antibodies in circulating IC are limited, and may play an important role in the pathogenesis of lupus nephritis.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007130 Immunoglobulin Idiotypes Unique genetically-controlled determinants present on ANTIBODIES whose specificity is limited to a single group of proteins (e.g., another antibody molecule or an individual myeloma protein). The idiotype appears to represent the antigenicity of the antigen-binding site of the antibody and to be genetically codetermined with it. The idiotypic determinants have been precisely located to the IMMUNOGLOBULIN VARIABLE REGION of both immunoglobin polypeptide chains.

D008181 Lupus Nephritis Glomerulonephritis associated with autoimmune disease SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUS.
