Clearance of immune complexes formed in normal and leukaemic rats. 1980

P S Shepherd, and R A Pendry, and C J Dean

Immune complexes of 125I-HSA-rat anti-HSA formed in vivo under conditions of antibody excess were rapidly cleared from the circulation of both normal and leukaemic Hooded rats. In HSA-immune rats most of the 125I-HSA present in the blood was found to be cell-bound, but a proportion was present as circulating immune complexes that could be precipitated from plasma by 2.5% polyethylene glycol. There was no evidence that clearance of a soluble antigen was impaired in leukaemic animals.
