Placental transmission of thyroid-stimulating immunoglobulins.

Long-acting thyroid stimulator (LATS) and LATS protector (LATS-P) were assayed at or near delivery in serum from 18 pregnant women with a history of past or present thyrotoxicosis. The results suggested that neonatal thyrotoxicosis may be predicted prenatally if maternal serum LATS and LATS-P concentrations near delivery are above certain levels.

Association of the long-acting thyroid stimulator protector with the immunoglobulin G fraction of serum from patients with thyrotoxicosis.

Both the long-acting thyroid stimulator and the long-acting thyroid stimulator protector are associated with the immunoglobulin G fraction of human serum proteins. Fractionation of globulins by (NH4)2SO4 precipitation and DEAE-cellulose chromatography showed that the protector activity was associated with subfractions of differing electrophoretic mobility. Attempts to concentrate the protector in immunochemically pure immunoglobulin G prepared in this way may fail because of loss of protector activity with other immunoglobulin G fractions. Gel filtration on Sephadex G-150 indicated that protector activity was associated with 7-S proteins.
