WKY rats were immunized (“Active immunization”) with hMPO (EAV, n = 7-20 per group) or HSA (Control, n = 8-18 per group) in CFA, or received lg (“Passive transfer”; ANCA+, n = 9, ANCA, n = 9). No significant differences between the groups within each experiment were observed. Values are mean ± SEM.

ND indicates not done.
