Detection and Significance of Circulating HBsAg/IgA Immune Complexes in Patients with Hepatitis B
Abstract: Circulating HBsAg/IgA immune complexes were detected in different groups of hepatitis B patiens by ACCA-ELISA(antibody class capture assay ELISA). The positive rates of chronic hepatitis B were significantly higher than those of acute hepatitis B, The occuranceof circulating HBsAg/IgA immune complexes was closely associated with HBV e system and the titer of HBeAg. These results seem to indicate that the immune response to form circulating HBsAg/IgA immune complexes may be a valuable marker of chronic infec...
