ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a method of using a peptide which has the sequence of epitopes which are present on B cell-bound but not secreted IgA. This induces production of the antibody itself. These extracellular peptide segments form, entirely or in part, antigenic epitopes unique to membrane-bound but not secreted IgA.
