Recovery of human neutrophils from complement attack: removal of the membrane attack complex by endocytosis and exocytosis 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
Nucleated cells can resist lysis by and recover from complement attack even after formation of the potentially cytolytic membrane attack complex on the cell surface. We have found that human neutrophils resist complement lysis by the physical removal of membrane attack complexes by both endocytic and exocytic process. The latter mechanism predominates, vesiculation being detectable within 60 sec of initiating the complement cascade. Sixty-five percent of the formed complexes are removed on plasma membrane vesicles, although only 2% of the cell surface is lost. Ultrastructural examination revealed that these vesicles were covered with ring-like "classical" complement lesions. Analysis of these vesicles by gel electrophoresis indicated that C9 was present exclusively in the form of a sodium dodecyl sulfate-resistant, high m.w. complex. In contrast, the 35% of C9 that remained associated with the cells was found to be inaccessible to a C9-specific monoclonal antibody, and was partly degraded, suggesting internalization of the membrane attack complex and proteolysis of some C9 molecules. The molar ratio of C9 to C8 was 12 to 1 on shed vesicles and on recovered cells. 相似文献

Treatment of P815 tumor cells with adriamycin increased their sensitivity to killing by anti-P815 antibody plus C, but not by allogeneic P815-sensitized spleen cells. Conversely, mitomycin C treatment enhanced the cells' sensitivity to cell-mediated, but not antibody-C, killing. Hydrocortisone, but not epinephrine, was effective in increasing the resistance of the cells to killing by both antibody-C and cell-mediated attack systems. The ability of the tumor cells to resist antibody-C killing correlated with their ability to incorporate fatty acid into complex cellular lipid; no such correlation was found between the cellular lipid synthesis and tumor cell susceptibility to cell-mediated killing. Drug or hormone-treated tumor cells exhibited unique changes in cellular lipid synthesis and composition and in cell surface physical properties that correlated with their susceptibility to antibody-C or cell-mediated attack. Cells increased in their sensitivity to antibody-C killing exhibited a decreased cholesterol:phospholipid mole ratio. In contrast, cells rendered more sensitive to cell-mediated killing exhibited an increase in polar phospholipid content and a measurable decrease in net negative cell surface charge density. These data implicate unique chemical and/or physical properties of tumor cells to be of fundamental importance for their ability to resist either humoral or cell-mediated immunologic attack; modulation of one or another of these cellular properties results in a change in the cells' susceptibility to immune killing by antibody plus C or by cytotoxic T lymphocytes. 相似文献

The effect of metabolic inhibitors and hormones on the susceptibility of P815 murine mastocytoma cells to antibody-C and cell-mediated killing, and on the ability of the cells to synthesize DNA, RNA, protein, carbohydrate, and lipid was tested. Pretreatment of the cells with adriamycin, actinomycin D, and puromycin increased the sensitivity of the cells to killing by rabbit anti-P815 antibody plus guinea pig C, but not by allogeneic P815-sensitized spleen cells. Conversely, mitomycin C treatment enhanced the cells' sensitivity to cell-mediated, but not antibody-C, killing. Insulin and hydrocortisone, but not epinephrine, were effective in decreasing the susceptibility of the cells to killing by both antibody-C and cell-mediated attack systems. The kinetics of the drug-induced increase and the hormone-induced decrease in susceptibility of the cells to antibody-C killing correlated with a decrease and increase, respectively, in the ability of the cells to incorporate fatty acid into complex cellular lipid. No such correlation was found between cellular lipid synthesis and tumor cell susceptibility to cell-mediated killing. The ability of the cells to resist either form of immune attack was not dependent on the ability of the cells to synthesize DNA, RNA, protein, or complex carbohydrate. These results suggest that the susceptibility of these tumor cells to antibody-C vs cell-mediated killing may be linked to different metabolic properties of the cells, and may reflect differences in the mechanisms of humoral vs cellular immune attack. 相似文献

Objectives
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinemia (PNH) is a rare but serious condition characterized by complement-mediated red blood cell (RBC) hemolysis and episodic thrombotic attack. It results from decay accelerating factor (CD55), and protectin (CD59), becoming attached to RBC and other cell surfaces. Absence of these protective proteins leaves such cells vulnerable to self attack at the C3 convertase and membrane attack complex (MAC) stages of complement activation. We have previously reported that aurin tricarboxylic acid (ATA) is an orally effective agent that selectively blocks complement activation at the C3 convertase stage as well as MAC formation at the C9 insertion stage.Design and Methods
We used a CH50 assay method and western blot analysis to investigate the vulnerability to complement attack of PNH RBCs compared with normal RBCs. Zymosan was used as the activator of normal serum and PNH serum. ATA was added to the sera to determine the concentration necessary to protect the RBCs from lysis by the zymosan-activated sera.Results
We found that erythrocytes from PNH patients on long term treatment with eculizumab were twice as vulnerable as normal erythrocytes to lysis induced by complement activated serum. Western blot data showed the presence of both C3 and C5 convertases on the PNH patient erythrocyte membranes. These data indicate persistent vulnerability of PNH erythrocytes to complement attack due to deficiencies in CD55 and CD59. ATA, when added to serum in vitro, protected PNH erythrocytes from complement attack, restoring their resistance to that of normal erythrocytes.Conclusions
We conclude that ATA, by protecting PNH erythrocytes from their decay accelerating factor (CD55) and protectin (CD59) deficiencies, may be an effective oral treatment in this disorder. 相似文献5.

A method whereby lactoperoxidase-catalyzed 125I-iodination of plasma membrane lipids can be achieved is described. The reaction results in a uniform and stable labeling of neutral lipids, phospholipids, lysophosphatides, free fatty acids, and triacylglycerides. By the use of this method, the action of antibody plus complement (C) on the specific release of lipid from the plasma membrane of line-10 tumor cells was studied. Within 15 min after the addition of C to antibody-sensitized cells, the enhanced release of specific lipid classes from the cell surface was observed; these lipids included sphingomyelin, phosphatidylserine, and phosphatidylcholine. The release of phosphatidylethanolamine and, in some instances, triglycerides, was reduced after antibody-C attack. Neither the specificity of the antibody used to sensitize the cells nor the ability of the antibody plus C to be cytotoxic to the cells appeared to affect the identity or amounts of lipids released from the cells. 相似文献

C8 binding protein (C8bp) is a 65-kDa membrane glycoprotein that inhibits complement-mediated lysis by homologous C5b-9. C8bp was first identified on human erythrocytes, but could also be detected on peripheral blood cells, platelets, glomerular cells and synovial fibroblasts. Lack of C8bp as seen in patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria type III results in enhanced susceptibility of the cells toward C5b-9. We studied C8bp expression on the promonocytic cell line U937. In addition to the membrane-bound C8bp, a cytoplasmic form of C8bp could also be identified by immunofluorescence, blotting, and precipitation. Stimulation of the cells with IL-1 beta, endotoxin, IFN-gamma, or phorbol ester increased C8bp surface expression. Because cycloheximide did not inhibit enhanced surface expression, it was most probably mobilized from cytoplasmic reservoirs. Thus, resistance of nuclear cells to complement attack seems to be based on two events: 1) the removal of the C5b-9 complex from the membrane; and 2) expression of regulatory surface proteins such as C8bp, which inhibit C5b-9-mediated lysis. We propose that the C8bp mobilization by cytokines might provide an additional protection against complement attack by its known interference with the C5b-9 assembly. 相似文献

C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute-phase reactant that is found bound to cells at sites of inflammation. We have passively sensitized HEp-2 cells for CRP binding and examined the effect of this treatment on complement activation and cell lysis. When cells were treated with protamine sulfate and CRP and were incubated with normal human serum in a 4-hr 51Cr-release assay, no significant lysis was noted. In contrast, HEp-2 cells treated with antibody and normal human serum were lysed. The consumption of complement components in normal human serum after incubation with cells treated with protamine and CRP was measured by hemolytic assays. CRP-treated cells consumed over 80% of C1, C4, and C2 and about 40% of C3 present. No significant consumption of C5 through C9 components was observed. Cells treated with antibody and complement showed consumption of C1 through C9. Cells were also sensitized for CRP binding by using diazophenylphosphocholine. This treatment also led to CRP binding and activation of the early classical pathway (C1, C4, C2, and to a lesser extent C3). The components of the membrane attack complex (C5 through C9) were not activated. Both a mouse monoclonal IgM and a human IgG antibody to phosphocholine activated the entire classical pathway. These results indicate that CRP activation of the classical complement pathway is restricted to the early part of the pathway. In the absence of activation of the membrane attack complex, complement-mediated cell lysis cannot occur. 相似文献

Acinetobacter lwoffi strain O16, a facultative psychrophile, can grow on crude oil, hexadecane, octadecane, and most alkanes when tested at 20 but not at 30°C. Growth occurred on a few alkanes at 30°C but after a longer lag than at 20°C. Cells grown on alkanes as sole carbon sources had high levels of cell-bound lipase. In contrast, previous work has shown that those grown on complex medium produced cell-free lipase and those grown on defined medium without alkanes produced little or no lipase. Low concentrations of the detergent Triton X-100 caused the liberation of most of the lipase activity of alkane-grown cells and increased total lipase activity. When ethanol and hexadecane were both present in a mineral medium, diauxic growth occurred; until the ethanol was completely used up, hexadecane was not utilized, and the lipase activity was very low. When growth on hexadecane began, lipase activity increased, reaching a level 50- to 100-fold higher than that of cells growing on ethanol. A similar pattern of lipase formation and hexadecane utilization was observed with Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Whenever A. lwoffi and other bacteria degraded alkanes they exhibited substantial lipase activity. Not all bacteria that produced lipase, however, could attack alkanes. Bacteria that could not produce lipase did not attack alkanes. The results suggest that a correlation may exist between lipase formation and alkane utilization. 相似文献

Carboxypeptidase Y preparations from baker's yeast have been found to exhibit endopeptidase activity when cytochrome b5 was used as substrate. As the susceptibility of cytochrome b5 to attack by carboxypeptidase Y has been used to distinguish between two modes of insertion of cytochrome b5 into lipid bilayer, one which has the C terminal buried in the lipid bilayer and one which has a free C terminal, caution should be taken when employing carboxypeptidase Y preparations for this type of studies. 相似文献

C-mediated inhibition of function in C-sensitive strains of Escherichia coli involves the assembly of the membrane attack complex (MAC) on the outer membrane with subsequent inhibition of inner membrane function. The inhibition of inner membrane function is critical for effective cell killing as damage to the outer membrane alone is insufficient to kill a cell in the absence of serum lysozyme. Studies on the measurement of oxygen consumption for cells under complement attack showed that C-sensitive cells were inhibited by assembly of the MAC, and that this represents damage to some component of the respiring inner membrane. Mechanisms of cellular resistance to C attack could include 1) inhibition of the assembly of the MAC, 2) inhibition of effective activation of the assembled MAC, or 3) reversal of the inhibitory effects of the MAC. Demonstration of a transient C-mediated inhibition of inner membrane function in C-resistant cells implies that the latter case should be considered as one possible component of cellular resistance to C attack. 相似文献

Neoantigenic determinants (neoAg) specific for the assembling membrane attack complex (MAC) of complement were detected by immunofluorescence microscopy on the surface of cytotoxic lymphocytes during the antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) reaction. This study employed antibody-sensitized chicken erythrocytes as target cells, human peripheral blood lymphocytes as effector cells, and RITC-conjugated rabbit F(ab')2-anti-neoAg. NeoAg was present on 60% of ADCC plaque-forming lymphocytes (PFL). Eight out of 182 neoAg-positive PFL were observed in direct contact with their target cells. In these cases MAC-specific neoAg was visualized at the zone of contact between the cells. Anti-neoAg Ig was found to inhibit ADCC plaque assays up to 62%; and 51Cr-release assays up to 79%. Stimulation of lymphocytes by PHA or mixed lymphocyte culture increased the expression of neoAg. In the case of PHA, increased neoAg expression was correlated with an increased incorporation of 14C-leucine into C5, C6, C7, and C8 antigens, which was detected by immunodiffusion and autoradiography. 相似文献

The complement system can be specifically targeted to tumor cells due to molecular changes on their surfaces that are recognized
by complement directly or via naturally occurring antibodies. However, tumor cells often overexpress membrane-bound complement
inhibitors protecting them from complement attack. We have previously shown that non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells,
additionally to membrane-bound inhibitors, produce substantial amounts of soluble regulators such as factor I (FI) and factor
H (FH). Since low oxygen concentration is associated with rapidly growing solid tumors, we studied how NSCLC cells protect
themselves from complement attack under hypoxic conditions. Unexpectedly, mRNA levels and secretion of both FI and FH were
significantly decreased already after 24 h exposure to hypoxia while cell viability measured by XTT assay and annexin V/7-AAD
staining was affected only marginally. Furthermore, we observed decrease of mRNA level and loss of membrane-bound complement
inhibitor CD46 and increased deposition of early (C3b) and terminal (C9) complement components on hypoxic NSCLC cells. All
three complement pathways (classical, lectin and alternative) were employed to deposit C3b on cell surface. Taken together,
our results imply that under hypoxic conditions NSCLC give up some of their available defense mechanisms and become more prone
to complement attack. 相似文献

A20 lymphoma cells were subjected to heat shock for 2 h at 42 and 43 +/- 0.1 degrees C and then evaluated at 37 degrees C for sensitivity to lysis by intact allo-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs), perforin-containing granules isolated from CTLs, and Fas-mediated apoptosis. Heat shock at 42 degrees C caused little change in sensitivity of the lymphoma cell line to lysis by intact CTLs or their isolated cytotoxic granules, but caused increased sensitivity to Fas-mediated apoptosis. However, A20 cells shocked at 43 degrees C declined significantly in sensitivity to lysis by intact CTLs, while remaining very sensitive to perforin granules and to Fas-mediated apoptosis. Expression of the inducible heat shock protein was observed in A20 cells incubated at 43 degrees C, but not in those incubated at 42 degrees C, suggesting a role for heat shock proteins. Furthermore, A20 cells shocked at 43 degrees C did not provoke degranulation and secretion of granzymes by antigen-specific CTLs, although formation of CTL-target conjugates and levels of MHC class I molecules remained unchanged. These observations demonstrate that hyperthermia or febrile conditions may reduce susceptibility of target cells to CTL attack due to failure of antigen presentation and the inability of CTLs to recognize heat stressed targets, thus enabling targets to escape CTL attack. 相似文献

The susceptibility of human melanoma cells to lysis by human complement after sensitization with the R24 murine IgG3 monoclonal antibody to the GD3 ganglioside antigen was investigated. It was found that the melanoma cell lines were either susceptible (greater than or equal to 70% cytotoxicity) or resistant (less than or equal to 30% cytotoxicity) to complement-mediated killing. We determined the kinetics of binding of C3 to and its subsequent fate on the melanoma cells. We found that on susceptible cell lines, maximal binding of C3 occurred within 10 min of incubation. At that time, approximately 90% of the bound C3 was in the form of C3b. During the subsequent incubation, the C3b was slowly inactivated, apparently generating the physiologic degradation products iC3b, C3dg, and C3d. However, this degradation of C3b could be inhibited without affecting the final degree of cytotoxicity, indicating that it is of no apparent consequence for the killing of susceptible melanoma cells. Very different results were obtained with resistant melanoma cells. Bound C3b was rapidly inactivated, and C3d was the predominant form of C3 on resistant cells throughout the incubation. Therefore, rapid inactivation of C3b was identified as a protective mechanism of human melanoma cells against complement attack. In addition, we found that resistance to complement is not an inherent property of the cells but depends on the antibody used for sensitization, because the resistant cell lines could be lysed after sensitization with polyclonal antiserum. 相似文献

Several type II restriction-modification (RM) gene complexes kill host bacterial cells that have lost them, through attack on the chromosomal recognition sites of these cells. Two RM gene complexes recognizing the same sequence cannot simultaneously enjoy such stabilization through postsegregational host killing, because one will defend chromosomal sites from attack by the other. In the present work, we analyzed intrahost competition between two RM gene complexes when the recognition sequence of one was included in that of the other. When the EcoRII gene complex, recognizing 5'-CCWGG (W = A, T), is lost from the host, the SsoII gene complex, which recognizes 5'-CCNGG (N = A, T, G, C), will prevent host death by protecting CCWGG sites on the chromosome. However, when the SsoII (CCNGG) gene complex is lost, the EcoRII (CCWGG) gene complex will be unable to prevent host death through attack by SsoII on 5'-CCSGG (S = C, G) sites. These predictions were verified in our experiments, in which we analyzed plasmid maintenance, cell growth, cell shape, and chromosomal DNA. Our results demonstrate the presence of selective pressure for decrease in the specificity of recognition sequence of RM systems in the absence of invading DNA. 相似文献

About half of the sphingomyelin content of fresh and ATP-depleted chicken erythrocytes is hydrolysed by sphingomyelinase. Removal of spingomyelin exposes the rest of the membrane phospholipids to hydrolysis by phospholipase C only in ATP-depleted but not in fresh cells. Addition of both sphinogomyelinase and phospholipase C to ATP-depleted cells causes about 60-70 percent hydrolysis of the total phospholipids accompanied by extensive (90 percent) hemolysis. The phospholipids of toad erythrocytes are partially available to phospholipase C activity in fresh cells (17-25 percent hydrolysis) without prior sphingomyelinase treatment. However, in ATP-depleted toad cells phospholipase C hydrolyses 66 percent of phospholipids and causes extensive lysis. Treatment of either fresh or ATP-depleted toad erythrocytes by sphingomyelinase together with phospholipase C induces hydrolysis of most of the phospholipds with complete lysis. Restoration of ATP to ATP-depleted cells endows them with resistance to the attack of phospholipase C. The correlation between changes in ATP level and membrane organization as revealed by increased susceptibility toward phospholipases is discussed. 相似文献

The complement protein C5 initiates assembly of the membrane attack complex. This remarkable process results in lysis of target cells and is fundamental to mammalian defense against infection. The 150-amino acid residue domain at the C terminus of C5 (C5-C345C) is pivotal to C5 function. It interacts with enzymes that convert C5 to C5b, the first step in the assembly of the membrane attack complex; it also binds to the membrane attack complex components C6 and C7 with high affinity. Here a recombinant version of this C5-C345C domain is shown to adopt the oligosaccharide/oligonucleotide binding fold, with two helices packed against a five-stranded beta-barrel. The structure is compared with those from the netrin-like module family that have a similar fold. Residues critical to the interaction with C5-convertase cluster on a mobile, hydrophobic inter-strand loop that protrudes from the open face of the beta-barrel. The opposite, helix-dominated face of C5-C345C carries a pair of exposed hydrophobic side chains adjacent to a striking negatively charged patch, consistent with affinity for positively charged factor I modules in C6 and C7. Modeling of homologous domains from complement proteins C3 and C4, which do not participate in membrane attack complex assembly, suggests that this provisionally identified C6/C7-interacting face is indeed specific to C5. 相似文献

Abstract. 1. This study explored interactions of two spatially and temporally separated weevils and their impact on Alliaria petiolata (garlic mustard) survival, growth, and reproduction at different herbivore densities.
2. The root-mining weevil Ceutorhynchus scrobicollis attacks A. petiolata rosettes from October to April, and larvae complete development in May. The shoot-mining weevil Ceutorhynchus alliariae attacks bolting plants in April/May with larvae completing development in June–July. Priority effects were expected, with early attack of C. scrobicollis affecting the later attacking C. alliariae , mediated through changes in plant growth or chemistry.
3. Attack by C. scrobicollis significantly increased plant mortality and changed plant architecture, while C. alliariae only significantly reduced plant height. Attack by C. scrobicollis also increased nitrogen content of stems.
4. Root feeding by C. scrobicollis affected the feeding niche of C. alliariae , but increased stem nitrogen content did not result in increased stem miner survival. While reduced height and stem diameters as a result of C. scrobicollis attack reduced C. alliariae attack at the stem level, attack at plant level and recruitment was unaffected.
5. Weevil density had no effect on plant performance, most likely due to strong intraspecific competition, and there were no synergistic effects between the two herbivores.
6. Overall, attack by C. scrobicollis was more detrimental to A. petiolata growth, seed output, and survival than attack by C. alliariae . Consequently, C. scrobicollis has been prioritised as a potential biocontrol agent for control of A. petiolata in North America. 相似文献
