Polyreactivity was determined using a polyreactive ELISA protocol, as previously described (13). Briefly, MAbs were tested for binding to 6 antigens (cardiolipin, dsDNA, flagellin, insulin, KLH, and LPS) starting at 1 μg/ml for 1.5 h at 37°C. HRP-conjugated goat anti-human IgG antibody (Jackson ImmunoResearch) diluted 1:2,000 in PBS/0.05% Tween/0.1 mM EDTA was used to detect binding of MAbs, and plates were subsequently developed with super aquablue ELISA substrate (eBiosciences). MAbs were considered polyreactive if they bound 4 or more antigens at an OD of 450 nm (OD450) of ≥0.5. All MAbs were tested in duplicate, and all assays were performed 2 or 3 times.
