Increased serum AMAs in mice injected with 2-OA-BSA/OCH.

<p>Wild type mice were immunized with 2-OA-BSA and α-GalCer (group name: 2-OA/a-GC), OCH (group name: 2-OA/OCH) or PBS (group name: 2-OA/PBS) at weeks 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8. At week 12, serum levels of autoantibodies to mPDC-E2 were measured by ELISA. n = 9–10 mice per group. *, p < 0.05 in 2-OA/a-GC to 2-OA/PBS; #, p < 0.05 in 2-OA/OCH to 2-OA/PBS.
