Abstract

Rabbits were immunized by the water soluble cow cornea antigens. The particle immunochemical identity between cow cornea antigens and cow lens, vitreous humor, aqueous humor, iris, choroid and retina was found in reaction of immunodiffusion in gel. Immune cross reactions between cow cornea antigens and human antigens of different tissue were absent. 9 antigens were indicated by immunoelectrophoresis in cow cornea. Three of them with gamma-mobility locate in epithelium, 2-with gamma-mobility--in endothelium and 4 (two with beta-mobility, and one of alpha 1-mobility and another alpha 2-mobility) in stroma. The possible role of different antigenic composition of cornea is discussed.

Autoimmune Diseases

Autoimmune diseases occur as a result of an attack by the immune system on the body’s own tissues resulting in damage and dysfunction. There are different types of autoimmune diseases, in which there is a complex and unknown interaction between genetics and the environment. Discover the latest research on autoimmune diseases here.
