## Abstract Sera from 10 patients with juvenile arthritis (JA), 2 seropositive and 8 with hidden rheumatoid factor (RF), were subjected to affinity chromatography on a rabbit antiβhuman IgM column. Material retained by the column was eluted sequentially by 1__M__ NH~3~ and 0.1__M__ glycineβHCl buff
## Abstract Materials with the Clq binding properties of soluble immune complexes (IC) were found in sera from 11 of 51 consecutive (22%) children with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA) and in 17 of 20 adults with active seroβpositive rheumatoid arthritis (RA). IC appeared more frequently in chil
Forty patients with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA) were examined for C3b receptor (CRl) levels on erythrocytes (by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), levels of circulating immune complexes (IC) (by a polyethylene glycol precipitation-complement consumption method), C3d split products (by in
## Abstract Analyses of CH50, complement components, properdin factors, and kininogen in synovial fluid of patients with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis revealed evidence of activation of the classic complement pathway in all clinical subgroups. Juveniles with the adult pattern of disease had the gre
