Hello,
Recently, I have read column about the effect of anti-idiotype
antibody to anti-sperm antibody on fertilization. But, I am not quite
certain where I read this issue, maybe on newspaper or magazine. I would
be grateful if I could have any reply from anybody who know the paper
describing that natural anti-idiotype antibody to anti-sperm antibody
enables female being pregnant in a case that fertilization has been
interrupted by anti-sperm antibodies. I think that induction of the
anti-idiotype antibody can be great help in such cases. I am looking for
the citation of this and related papers as they describe a issue that
anti-sperm antibody prevents sperm from fertilization and related issues.
Please let me know the citations. Comments are welcomed. Thank you all
for your cooperation.
Sincerely,
