Abstract: | The reactions of five human smooth-muscle-antibody positive sera with F-actin from rabbit skeletal muscle were studied by electronmicroscopy with the negative contrasting technique. The immune complexes consisted of parallel arrays of actin filaments cross-linked by antibodies. Small complexes had a ladder-like appearance on some regions suggesting a periodic antibody binding. The antibodies were observed directly and by the aid of a ferritin-conjugated anti-human Ig. |
