Aspects pertinent to the usefulness of a solid phase radio-immuno-sorbent assay for the detection of spermatozoa antibodies in sera of infertility patients

Description

The solid phase Radio-Immuno-Sorbent Assay (RISA) is a highly sensitive and valid test to detect 125-iodinetagged antibodies to spermatozoa that allows qualitative and quantitative evaluations of sperm-incapacitating immunglobulin Ig G in sera from patients believed to be infertile for immunological reasons. The study failed to reveal any correlations between the results of RISA and those of micro-sperm-agglutination or micro-sperm-immobilisation tests. There was a major body of evidence pointing to possible links between female isoimmunity and male autoimmunity. (TRV)

Abstract (German)

Der hoch sensitive und valide Festphasen-Radioimmunsorbent-Test (RIST) zum Nachweis von (mit 125Jod markierten) Spermatozoen-Antikoerpern macht qualitative und quantitative Aussagen ueber das Anti-Spermatozoen-Ig G in Seren von Patienten mit immunologischer Sterilitaet moeglich. Es wurde keine Korrelation zwischen den Befunden des RIST und den Mikrospermagglutinations- bzw. Mikrospermimmobilisationstesten gefunden. Aufgrund der Ergebnisse wird vermutet, dass weibliche Isoimmunitaet mit maennlicher Autoimmunitaet verknuepft ist. (TRV)
