MBL调控MASP激活补体系统 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
甘露聚糖结合凝集素(MBL;或甘露聚糖结合蛋白,MBP)是由相同的多肽链组成的寡聚物,它通过结合细胞表面的碳水化合物能够有效地识别侵入体内的多种致病微生物,并激活补体来杀灭病原微生物。MBL能与血清中其相关蛋白酶(MASP)结合,MASP包含3个丝氨酸蛋白酶MASP-1、MASP-2、MASP-3和非酶蛋白MAp19。研究显示,MBL通过2种机理调控MASP-2的活性,在先天性免疫中具有重要的作用。本文简要综述MBL调控MASP激活补体的作用机理。 相似文献

补体是天然免疫的重要组成部分。C3是补体经典途径、旁路途径及甘露糖结合凝集素(MBL)途径的共同通路,在补体清除1型人免疫缺陷病毒(HIV-1)的过程中发挥重要作用。同时,C3在促进病毒黏膜进入、传播与储存、感染免疫细胞等方面也起重要作用。 相似文献

日本七鳃鳗(Lampetra japonica)属最原始的无颌类脊椎动物,是研究免疫起源与进化的重要模式生物。七鳃鳗血清中C3分子(L-C3)是其含量最高的补体成分,在补体经典激活途径和旁路激活途径中均发挥重要作用。本文通过PCR扩增获取C3分子α-γ链的基因序列,构建到原核表达载体pET-28a,成功在大肠杆菌中表达C3部分蛋白质并制备多克隆抗体。利用流式细胞术和激光共聚焦证明,L-C3分布在神经轴体的胞浆中。免疫共沉淀及细胞沉积结果显示,七鳃鳗血清中,VLRB与L-C3蛋白相互作用并共沉积于靶细胞膜表面。天然L-C3和VLRB清除实验,验证其在参与七鳃鳗血清杀伤靶细胞时发挥重要作用。本研究为七鳃鳗补体系统的研究奠定了基础,为七鳃鳗免疫起源与进化提供重要资料。 相似文献

当初在翻译the alternative pathway of complement activation这个术语时,译者对alternative的词意以及该途径的本质有认识上的误解,将其译成补体激活的替代途径。替代,是把一种物质或一种过程去置换另一种物质或另一种过程的意思。而alternative pathway则我行我素。它不替代其他反应,其它途径也不能替代它,所以谈不上什么替代。真正具有明确替代意义的英文单词是substitutive而非alternative。 相似文献

1. Complement fixation is obtained in every antigen-antibody reaction involving the presence or formation of a heterogeneous phase (red cells, bacteria, precipitate). 2. The physical constants of fixation (temperature coefficient, velocity, quantitative relationships between the reactants) are those commonly associated with adsorption processes, and are the same in the three types of fixation studied. 3. All the in vitro immune reactions involve an aggregation of immune-serum globulins upon the surface of the antigen. It has been shown that the "fixation" of complement is an adsorption by the aggregates so formed; whether these aggregates are visible as a flocculent precipitate (e.g., sheep serum vs. anti-serum) or concentrated as a surface film on a cellular antigen (sensitized cells; agglutinated bacteria), the reaction is fundamentally the same. 4. As yet, it is unknown whether this adsorption is determined by the physical state of the precipitate, and thus, differs only quantitatively from that by Kaolin, charcoal, normal bacteria, heat-denatured proteins, etc.; or whether the comparatively enormous avidity of these aggregates for complement is due to a specific chemical affinity. 相似文献

It has been shown:
1. That complement exposed to ultra-violet light is not thereby sensitized to the action of heat (which indicates that it is not protein).
2. That inactivation of complement by ultra-violet light is accompanied by a decrease in its surface tension.
3. That photoinactivation of complement is not a result of any changes in hydrogen ion concentration since these are less than 0.05 pH.
4. That hydrogen ion concentrations high enough to transform serum proteins from the cation to the anion condition (i.e. past the isoelectric point) permanently inactivate complement.
These facts together with those given in previous papers lead to the following hypotheses.
1. That there is present in serum a hemolytic substance which is formed from a precursor (which may resemble lecithin) and is constantly being formed and simultaneously being broken down into inactive products.
2. That both precursor and lysin contain the same photosensitive molecular group.
3. That the lytic substance is dependent for its activity upon the state of the serum proteins. 相似文献

1. Sensitization confers upon the red cell the property of adsorbing complement from solution. The submicroscopic film of immune serum protein deposited upon the cell surface during sensitization, and completely analogous to the precipitate formed in a soluble antigen-antibody reaction (e.g., sheep serum vs. rabbit anti-sheep serum) acts as absorbent, the degree of sensitization (size of the film) determining the amount of complement "fixed" (adsorbed). 2. This adsorption of complement by the sensitized cell is an essential preliminary to hemolysis, and when inhibited, even large quantities of demonstrably active complement have no hemolytic action. The marked influence of electrolytes and of the hydrogen ion concentration upon hemolysis is due primarily to corresponding effects upon the fixation of complement by the sensitized cell. In the case of salts with monovalent cations, complement fixation (and hemolysis) is completely inhibited at any concentration < 0.02 M or > 0.35 M. Electrolytes with bivalent cations are much more inhibitory, and in low as concentration 0.07 M completely prevent fixation (and hemolysis). The optimal reaction for complement fixation (and hemolysis) is pH 6.5 to 8.0. In slightly more acid range both are inhibited. But at a reaction pH 5.3, and in the alkaline range, there is an irreversible inactivation of complement, complete at pH 4.8 and 8.8 respectively. It is perhaps more than a coincidence that complement fixation, and therefore, hemolysis, are prevented by just those factors which suppress the ionization of serum proteins, and lead to an increased aggregation state. Between a suspension of macroscopically visible particles of euglobulin in distilled water, and a solution is physiological saline, there is certainly a gradual transition, manifested at low electrolyte concentrations by the opacity of the solution. At pH 7.4, globulin would ionize as a Na-salt, an ionization inhibited as the isoelectric point (5.3) is approached, with a coincident greater tendency of the globulin to separate from solution. And the cataphoretic velocity of particles of globulin, as well as all the other properties which are a function of its ionization (viscosity, osmotic pressure, etc.), are suppressed by electrolytes, the degree of suppression being determined by the concentration and valence of the cation (on the alkaline side of the isoelectric point). The analogy with complement fixation is too complete to be dismissed as fortuitous. 3. The fact that the degree of complement "fixation" increases with the degree of sensitization explains one of the most puzzling phenomena in hemolysis,—that immune serum and complement are, to a certain extent, interchangeable, a decrease in either factor being compensated by an increase in the other (8), (20), (22). The explanation is evident from Figs. 1,2, and 3. The exact quantitative relationships involved will be developed in a later paper. With increasing sensitization there is an enormously more complete and more rapid fixation of complement, and correspondingly more rapid hemolysis, exactly the effect produced by increasing the quantity of complement instead of amboceptor (Fig. 3). All other variables being constant, the velocity of hemolysis is determined by the amount of complement adsorbed. With more amboceptor, a greater proportion is "fixed" by the cell; with more complement, a smaller proportion, but a larger absolute amount. The result is the same: more complement adsorbed, and a corresponding acceleration of hemolysis. If this mobilization of complement is the sole function of immuneserum (and there is as yet no reason to assume any other), then the accepted terminology, in which amboceptor, immune body, and hemolysin are used synonymously, is erroneous. The immune body would function only as an "amboceptor," mobilizing the effective hemolysin, complement, upon the surface of the cell. Nothing has been said of the multiple components into which complement may be split. A priori, it would be expected that the adsorption demonstrated is of the so called midpiece fraction. 相似文献
