Antibody to the oxyphil cells of the human parathyroid in idiopathic hypoparathyroidism.
IgG antibody to parathyroid oxyphil cells is described in the serum of one of nine patients with idiopathic hypoparathyroidism. This serum also reacted with the chief cells of the parathyroid. Whether other sera from the patients with hypoparathyroidism contained antibody to chief cells in low titre was uncertain.
