Anti-gammaglobulin factors in human sera revealed by enzymatic splitting of anti-Rh antibodies. Vox Sang 1963;8:133-52. 1993

C K Osterland, and M Harboe, and H G Kunkel

Human sera were found that contained antibody activity which caused agglutination of red cells or particles sensitized with immunoglobulin G that had first been degraded by pepsin proteolysis. The agglutinating activity was specific for a determinant that was not present on the untreated, native immunoglobulin. It was found most frequently in sera from rheumatoid arthritis patients and its titre showed some correlation with disease activity.
