Distribution of immunoglobulin heavy chains in diseased synovia.

RESUMO
Synovium from 142 patients with 12 different arthropathies was examined for the distribution of alpha, delta, gamma, and mu immunoglobulin heavy chains. A high proportion of plasma cells in the superficial subintima in all diseases reacted for alpha heavy chains. Only in rheumatoid disease did the synovium contain more than 10% of plasma cells reacting for mu heavy chains.
