Anti-dsDNA antibodies are highly associated with glomerulonephritis in SLE, although some patients with high titers of anti-dsDNA antibodies do not develop renal disease.

Infected cells commonly seen in the lung of fetuses that develop a high titer of antibody for PPV probably represent this stage of replication ( see Fig . 8C ).
13.
However, MCTD is thought by some researchers to be a clinically distinct entity and is strongly associated with the presence of high titers of ribonucleoprotein ( RNP ) antibodies.
14.
It is still hard to tell how many stereotypes exist because HDV is under the umbrella of HBV . HDV causes very high titers in the blood of people who are infected.
15.
The LPS-exposed mice develop strikingly high titers of polyclonal antibodies, prolonged hepatomegaly, and innate immune " tolerance " that gives them slow and inadequate responses to bacterial challenge.
16.
Furthermore, epidemiologic studies determined that high titers of circulating antibodies against ASPs are associated with lower hookworm burdens in residents of Hainan Province, China, and Minas Gerais, Brazil.
17.
And despite decades of teaching that people with HIV aren't dangerous, some of them are infected with high titers of this . . . there's a can of worms for you.
18.
High titers of either immunoglobulin G ( IgG ) or immunoglobulin M ( IgM ) antibodies to " Borrelia " antigens indicate disease, but lower titers can be misleading, because the IgM antibodies may remain after the initial infection, and IgG antibodies may remain for years.
19.
The immunoglobulin is prepared from the plasma of healthy donors with high titers of antibodies to VZV . A study was published in the Journal of Infectious Diseases that showed outdated blood from blood banks may have antibody concentrations that were equivalent to those in plasma of donors recovering from recent VZV infection that resulted in elevated levels of zoster immune globulin.
20.
In general, high titers ( usually > 400 pM ) are more frequently associated with defined clinical phenotypes ( mainly LE, but also peripheral nerve hyperexcitability ( PNH ), seizures, or MoS ), whereas low titers of Abs can be found in patients with either or both CNS and PNS syndromes but are also detected in patients without a clear immune-mediated phenotype.
