Abstract

Recently, we detected a rheumatoid factor, called regulatory, whose production prevents development and causes a remission of experimentally-induced autoimmune diseases. The aim of this study was to elucidate the mechanism of induction of antigenic determinants for regulatory rheumatoid factor onIgG and Fc fragments of human IgG. It was found out that antigenic determinants for regulatory rheumatoid factor are formed in the hinge region of IgG uponthe reduction of sulfhydryl bondby treatment of the IgG molecule with polyethylene glycol or dithiothreitol. In response to the immunization of rats with native human IgG, the production of antibodies similar in specificity to human regulatory rheumatoid factor occurs, suggests that there is an endogenous mechanism for the formation of neoantigenic determinants for regulatory rheumatoid factor
