T-Cell-Dependent Antibody Response to the Dominant Epitope of Streptococcal Polysaccharide, N-Acetyl-Glucosamine, Is Cross-Reactive with Cardiac Myosin

Autoantibodies against myosin are associated with myocarditis and rheumatic heart disease. In this study, the antigenic cross-reactivity of myosin and N-acetyl-glucosamine (GlcNAc), the dominant epitope of Group A streptococcal polysaccharide, was examined. Six antimyosin monoclonal antibodies (MAbs...
