Determination of Genetic Polymorphism of Properdin Factor B in Patients With Graves Disease / 中国免疫学杂志

ABSTRACT

Genetic polymorphism of properdin factor B (Bf)of alternative complement pathway was investigated in 110 patients with Gravesldisease and in 220 blood donors in Wuhan Blood Transfusion Center using high voltage agarose gel electrophoresis andsubsequent immunofixation. Results show that distributions of Bf phenotype observed in normals are in agreement with those expected from the Hardy-Weivr, erg equilibrium (XZ=5.4337, Pc~0.10),but in patients donlt (XZ=29.689~, Pc.
