V region-mediated selection of autoreactive repertoires by intravenous immunoglobulin (i.v.Ig).

TL;DR: In addition to its use as substitute therapy for primary and secondary immunodeficiencies, intravenous immunoglobulin (i.v.Ig) is increasingly being used as an immunomodulating therapy in the treatment of patients with a variety of autoimmune and systemic inflammatory disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antibodies to a conserved region of HLA class I molecules, capable of modulating CD8 T cell-mediated function, are present in pooled normal immunoglobulin for therapeutic use.

TL;DR: It is reported here that IVIg recognizes the B07.75-84 peptide, corresponding to a conserved region of the alpha I helix of the first domain of HLA-B7 01, which represents a nonpolymorphic determinant of Hla class I molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIg) in the treatment of autoimmune diseases.

TL;DR: The current use of IVIg in human autoimmune diseases is discussed with a particular emphasis on the possible mechanisms by whichIVIg could suppress pathological autoimmune responses.
