Data are presented that show that a histochemical stain, Hoeschst 33342, can be used to discriminate between viable B and T lymphocytes in the mouse. Quantitative analysis of the staining of cells from various lymphoid tissues with Hoechst 33342 using a Fluorescence-Activated Cell Sorter (FACS) indicates that two populations of cells can be identified. In the spleen approximately 60% of the lymphocytes can be classified as brightly stained with 1 microgram/ml of Hoechst 33342, while in the lymph node only 40% of the cells stain brightly. Thymocytes exhibit only the dull staining profile. Separation of these two populations from the spleen using the FACS and reanalyzing them for cell surface antigenic markers shows that the lymphocytes stained brightly with Hoechst 33342 are predominantly immunoglobulin positive, while the cells that stain less brightly express Thy 1.2. This indicates that a histochemical stain correlates directly with classical immunological markers on cell surfaces. 相似文献

We have previously shown that the immunoregulatory function of prolactin may play a role in the progression of the mouse mammary preneoplastic hyperplastic alveolar nodule (HAN) line C4 to carcinoma. In this study we investigated the direct effect of prolactin on lymphocytes isolated from normal and C4-HAN-bearing mice. In addition, we tested the effect of ovariectomy on prolactin/lymphocyte interaction to see whether, as has been reported in rats [Mukherjee P., Hymer W. C. (1992) Prog Neuroendocrinol Immunol 5: 108; Viselli S. M. et al. (1991) Endocrinology 129: 983], removal of estrogen would enhance the response to prolactin in mice. Proliferation of splenocytes, lymph node cells and HAN-in-filtrating lymphocytes was stimulated by prolactin in a dose-responsive fashion. Ovariectomy did not alter this effect consistently. Cell-cycle analysis based on simultaneous staining of DNA and RNA revealed that prolactinstimulated lymphocytes progress through all phases of the cell cycle whereas anti-prolactin antiserum inhibits this stimulation. Two-color flow-cytometric analysis revealed the time-dependent induction of interleukin-2 (IL-2) receptor expression on both CD4+ and CD8+ cells by prolactin. Prolactin-treated lymphocytes also produced low yet detectable levels of bioactive IL-2 in a dose-and time-dependent fashion. Prolactin enhanced lymphocyte responsiveness to mitogens and showed a marked synergism at suboptimal concentrations. Pretreatment of splenocytes from HAN bearers with a high concentration of prolactin slightly enhanced natural killer (NK) activity; anti-prolactin antiserum reduced the NK lytic activity of poly(I)-poly(C)-activated splenocytes from HAN-bearing mice. Our results provide direct experimental evidence for the stimulatory effect of prolactin on lymphocyte function and IL-2-mediated lymphocyte proliferation and suggest a mechanism linking the endocrine system to immunomediated enhancement of HAN progression. 相似文献

Human peripheral blood lymphocytes have been shown to resist staining with the DNA binding fluorochrome Hoechst 33342 by the cellular membrane. The rate of uptake of the dye is strongly temperature-dependent with minimal uptake rate below 16 degrees C. The activation energy of dye transport was found to be 135 kJ/mol above 20 degrees C and about 20 kJ/mol below 16 degrees C. Metabolic inhibitors accelerated, instead of inhibiting, the transport of the dye. Dead cells have been shown to stain promptly in contrast with the gradually staining viable cells. The uptake process in the vital staining conditions is suggested to involve a carrier mediated mechanism. Application of Hoechst 33342 as a fluorescent indicator of viability is proposed. 相似文献

Cryostat sections of normal mouse tissues and of preneoplastic HAN and neoplastic mammary tumors were used as "antigens" in MMI tests. Nonspecific inhibition of normal and sensitized PEC migration was induced by HAN and some normal tissues, including normal mammary gland. This inhibition did not require the presence of lymphocytes, was not species specific, and could be blocked by sera from HAN-bearing mice. Cryostat sections of mammary tumors did not inhibit, indeed occasionally enhanced PEC migration. Further, the presence of tumor cryostats and eluates interfered with inhibition induced by HAN cryostats and by PPD with PEC from donors sensitized to that antigen. Histologic examination of HAN and of mammary tumor tissue revealed inflammatory cells to be distributed diffusely in the former and localized peripherally around the latter type of lesion. 相似文献

Human lymphocyte differentiation antigens HB-10 and HB-11. I. Ontogeny of antigen expression 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

T, B, and NK cells appear to represent separate lymphocyte lineages, but indirect evidence suggests that they may be related via a common lymphoid precursor cell. We have produced two monoclonal antibodies, HB-10 (IgM) and HB-11 (IgG1), by fusing spleen cells from mice immunized with the human B cell line SB, and have shown that both antibodies react with lymphocyte-specific cell surface antigens present on T, B, and NK cells, but not on other types of blood cells. The antibodies were reactive with most cell lines and malignancies of B cell origin and with some of T and NK cell lineage. Although the populations of cells expressing these two antigens were virtually identical, the HB-10 and HB-11 antibodies identified separate protease-sensitive determinants on the cell surface. The HB-11 antigenic determinant was also sensitive to neuraminidase and periodate treatments, but the HB-10 determinant was not. Antigen expression by lymphocytes from fetal, newborn, and adult tissues was examined. Within the B cell lineage, these antigens were expressed by most pre-B cells in bone marrow (88% +/- 5) and almost all B cells, but were not expressed by mature plasma cells. Virtually all of the granular lymphocytes in blood marked by the Leu-7 and Leu-11 (anti-Fc receptor) antibodies were HB-10+ and 11+. Among T lineage cells, the HB-10 and 11 antigens were expressed by a subset of relatively mature T3+ thymocytes and by greater than 90% of the T cells in newborn blood. In adults, however, only 65% of blood T cells and 24 to 30% of splenic or tonsillar T cells expressed the HB-10 and HB-11 antigens. The postnatal emergence of T cells which, like plasma cells, do not express these antigens suggests that post-thymic T lymphocyte maturation occurs and may be an activation-dependent process. 相似文献

Fluorescent dyes for lymphocyte migration and proliferation studies 总被引:26,自引:0,他引:26
Parish CR 《Immunology and cell biology》1999,77(6):499-508
Fluorescent dyes are increasingly being exploited to track lymphocyte migration and proliferation. The present paper reviews the properties and performance of some 14 different fluorescent dyes that have been used during the last 20 years to monitor lymphocyte migration. Of the 14 dyes discussed, two stand out as being the most versatile in terms of long-term tracking of lymphocytes and their ability to quantify lymphocyte proliferation. They are the intracellular covalent coupling dye carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester (CFSE) and the membrane inserting dye PKH26. Both dyes have the advantage that they can be used to track cell division, both in vitro and in vivo, due to the progressive halving of the fluorescence intensity of the dyes in cells after each division. However, CFSE appears to have the edge over PKH26 based on homogeneity of lymphocyte staining and cost. Two other fluorescent dyes, although not suitable for lymphocyte proliferation studies, are valuable tracking dyes for short-term (up to 3 day) lymphocyte migration experiments, namely the DNA-binding dye Hoechst 33342 and the cytoplasmic dye calcein. In the future it is highly likely that additional fluorescent dyes, with different spectral properties to CFSE, will become available, as well as membrane inserting fluorescent dyes that more homogeneously label lymphocytes than PKH26. 相似文献

Different Hoechst 33342 and DAPI fluorescence of the human Y chromosome in bivariate flow karyotypes
Summary The staining properties of AT-specific dyes Hoechst 33342 and DAPI as revealed by Hoechst 33342/mithramycin and mithramycin/DAPI bivariate human flow karyotype patterns are different for chromosomes rich in heterochromatin. The peak corresponding to chromosome Y of a given cell line is higher on the A/T axis with mithramycin/DAPI staining than with mithramycin/Hoechst. The chromosome 1 was found slightly more fluorescent in mithramycin/DAPI than in mithramycin/Hoechst as judged by the slight displacement of its area on the Hoechst-DAPI axis. The other peaks did not show major differences. On the same flow karyotypes, chromosomal rearrangements were detected. 相似文献

A mutant mouse strain without CD8 (Lyt-2 and Lyt-3) expression on the cell surface has been generated by disrupting the Lyt-2 gene using embryonic stem cell technology. In these mice, CD8+ T lymphocytes are not present in peripheral lymphoid organs, but the CD4+ T lymphocyte population seems to be unaltered. Cytotoxic response of T lymphocytes from these mice against alloantigens and viral antigens is dramatically decreased. Proliferative response against alloantigens and in vivo help to B lymphocytes, however, are not affected. These data suggest that CD8 is necessary for the maturation and positive selection of class I MHC restricted cytotoxic T lymphocytes but is not required on any of the intermediate thymocyte populations (CD8+CD4-TcR- or CD4+CD8+TcRlow) during the development of functional class II MHC restricted helper T cells. 相似文献

Ontogeny of human Ia antigens 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Indirect immunofluorescence (IIP) staining of tissues from human fetuses (ages ranging from 8 to 32 weeks of intrauterine life) with monoclonal antibodies (MoAb) to monomorphic determinants of Ia antigens and HLA-A,B,C antigens has shown that both types of antigens are already detectable in tissues of 8-week-old fetuses. Ia antigens and HLA-A,B,C antigens reach their almost-complete tissue distribution after 32 and 24 weeks of intrauterine life, respectively. The structure of Ia antigens synthesized by fetal thymus cells is similar to that of B-lymphoid cell-derived Ia antigens. Ia antigen-bearing thymic fetal cells can stimulate allogeneic lymphocytes in mixed lymphocyte reactions (MLRs). These reactions are blocked by monoclonal antibodies to monomorphic determinants of human Ia antigens and of HLA-A,B, antigens. 相似文献

Identification of three major target molecules of IgM antilymphocyte autoantibodies in systemic lupus erythematosus 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Three cell lymphocyte antigens of m.w. 55,000, 70,000, and 105,000 to 110,000 were identified by Western blotting as targets of IgM autoantibodies in serum from a group of 49 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. The 55- and 70-kDa antigens were well expressed on unstimulated peripheral T cells, whereas the 105- to 110-kDa target was demonstrable only on mitogen-activated T cells and lymphoblastoid T cell lines. Localization of these molecules to the plasma membrane was established by cytoabsorption experiments in which IgM antibody staining of blotted antigens was specifically absorbed from systemic lupus erythematosus serum during 4 degrees C incubations with intact lymphocytes, and by their detection in purified lymphocyte plasma membranes. While the identity of these target antigens vis a vis known surface determinants was not defined, their expression on peripheral T cells from multiple donors and on cell lines of both undifferentiated (HSB-2) and phenotypically mature (Jurkat; HUT 78) types excluded alloantigens, major histocompatibility complex-encoded determinants, and most T cell differentiation antigens as candidates in this regard. Expression of the IgM autoantibody targets on HSB-2 cells argues against discrete T subset specificities as well. IgM reactivity with the 55-, 70-, and 105- to 110-kDa antigens by blotting was highly correlated with antilymphocyte antibody activity in complement-dependent cytotoxicity assays (Fisher's p less than 0.001), and paralleled flow microfluorimetric and microcytotoxicity quantitation of IgM antibody activity in serial observations of individual patients studied during different phases of disease activity. Taken together, these data suggest that IgM lymphocytotoxic antibodies in systemic lupus erythematosus are directed predominantly against a limited number of non-T cell subset-specific antigens. 相似文献

Hoechst 33342 was injected either intravenously or intraperitoneally into mice which were killed 1 or 24 hr or 7, 14 or 28 days later. Various organs were fixed and paraffin embedded. Visual inspection showed that independently of the route of dye administration or survival time, distinct fluorescence of nuclei was observed in organs other than cerebral cortex. Even formic acid decalcification of bone failed to abolish the fluorescence of osteocytes. In vivo staining with Hoechst 33342 is proposed as an alternative for staining after sectioning. Cells from spleens of Hoechst 33342-injected mice or stained in vitro were injected intramuscularly into mice. Hoechst 33342-stained splenocytes could be found in deparaffinized sections at the site of injection 24 hr later. 相似文献

Apoptosis is an important mode of cell death under both physiological and pathophysiological conditions. Numerous techniques are available for the study and quantitation of apoptosis in cell culture, but only few are useful when applied to complex tissues. Among these, the terminal transferase-mediated dUTP nick end-labeling (TUNEL) assay remains the most widely used technique. However, its specificity and sensitivity for the detection of apoptosis remain controversial. We developed a technique consisting of staining live cells and tissues with Hoechst 33342 and the vital dye propidium iodide (PI), followed by fixation and the TUNEL reaction. We demonstrate excellent retention of PI in necrotic cells after fixation. We also examined the distribution of TUNEL staining among necrotic and apoptotic cells in various models of cell injury in vitro and in vivo. We show that the sensitivity of the TUNEL varied between 61 and 90% in the models examined. The specificity exceeded 87% in all models but fell to 70% when a predominantly necrotic injury was induced. This novel and simple method will permit the determination of indices of sensitivity and specificity for the TUNEL assay in other tissues and experimental conditions. 相似文献

Human thymus derived lymphocytes (T cells) interact with sheep red blood cells (SRBC) to form rosettes. We wanted to determine whether the lymphocyte's receptor for SRBC is associated with serologically detectable cell surface antigens. Antisera were prepared by immunizing horses with either fresh human thymus (ATG) or with B lymphocytes from an established lymphoid cell line in culture (ALG). ATG, ALG or Concanavalin A (Con A) were added to lymphocyte preparations to determine their effect on rosetting. The results showed that ATG inhibited rosettes in a dose dependent manner. In contrast, both the Con A and ALG had no effect. By immunofluorescence, Con A and ALG staining cells were able to form rosettes. ATG staining cells were unable to form rosettes. Removal of the ATG receptor by capping could not restore the rosette forming capacity suggesting that inhibition was not due to steric hindrance. We conclude that antibody directed against T cells but not B cells binds to surface antigens which appear to be identical with or in close proximity to the specific SRBC receptor. 相似文献

Identification and characterization of two novel lymphocyte function-associated antigens, L24 and L25 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
C Clayberger A M Krensky B W McIntyre T D Koller P Parham F Brodsky D J Linn E L Evans 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》1987,138(5):1510-1514
We describe the function and cell distribution of two novel cell surface antigens, L24 and L25. These antigens are broadly distributed on human lymphocytes. Monoclonal antibodies specific for these molecules block lysis by Class I- and II-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes, but do not affect any other T cell functions tested. Anti-L24 antibody immunoprecipitates a molecule composed of two disulfide-linked monomers of 140 kd each. Anti-L25 antibody immunoprecipitates three proteins of 150, 85, and 75 kd. The study of these and other function associated molecules may provide insight into mechanisms of cytotoxic T lymphocyte recognition and/or function. 相似文献

The two-colour flow cytometry method applied in a routine enumeration of peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets reveals that in some patients the entire population of CD4+ lymphocytes seems to express CD8 determinants as well. However, expression of the CD8 antigens on the cell surface is much lower in comparison with typical CD8+ cells. Moreover, in one-colour staining with an anti-CD8 antibody, cells with weak CD8 expression are not observed and only one typical population of CD8+ lymphocytes is seen. Investigating this phenomenon, we showed that after washing patient cells in RPMI before CD4/CD8 staining, the CD4+ T cell population did not show CD8 "co-expression". These results suggest that CD4+ lymphocytes, which seem to co-express CD8 antigen, in fact do not have this antigen on their surface. Moreover, after the addition of patient plasma to healthy donor cells prior to CD4/CD8 staining, a weak CD8 expression on normal CD4+ cells was noticed. Therefore we can assume that the agent(s) causing this phenomenon is/are present in the plasma of some patients. Altogether, these observations suggest that this phenomenon is nonspecific and probably results from cross-linking of anti-CD8 mAbs with anti-CD4 mAbs caused by factor(s) present in plasma of some patient. However, identification of that/these factor(s) requires further research. 相似文献

Measurement of cell-cycle phase-specific cell death using Hoechst 33342 and propidium iodide: preservation by ethanol fixation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

We developed a rapid technique for preservation of Hoechst 33342/propidium iodide-stained cells, using ethanol as a fixative. Combined staining with these dyes makes possible analysis of cell-cycle phase-specific cell death. The technique relies on exclusion of propidium iodide from the viable cells, whereas Hoechst stains all of the cells. The bivariate histograms resulting from the flow cytometric analysis contain the equivalent of two single-parameter DNA histograms, one of the living and the other of the dead cell population. Preservation of staining involved addition of 25% ethanol in PBS after propidium iodide staining and before Hoechst staining. The separation between the living and the dead cell populations was maintained for over 3 days at 4 degrees C. This technique will be valuable for quantitative evaluation of the cell-cycle phase-specific effects of cytostatic or cytotoxic agents, particularly in situations where a lag period between staining and analysis is unavoidable. 相似文献

The present study shows that staining of certain live cells, e.g., adriamycin-resistant P388 cells, by Hoechst 33342 is difficult because of the presence of a rapid efflux pump, which reduces intracellular dye concentration. Coincubation of these refractory cells in the presence of efflux blockers such as phenothiazines (trifluoperazine) or Ca++ channel blockers (verapamil) enhances dye retention and thus leads to generation of normal DNA distribution histograms. Laser flow cytometric data is confirmed by fluorometric assays, which show that P388/R cells retain one-third the amount of Hoechst 33342, and coincubation with efflux blockers increases Hoechst retention to values similar to those of drug-sensitive P388 cells. DNA histograms of mouse splenocytes incubated with Hoechst 33342 alone have a bimodal distribution possibly because of the presence of subpopulations that do not retain the fluorochrome owing to rapid efflux. Coincubation with an efflux blocker results in the generation of unimodal DNA histograms from these cells. These preliminary studies suggest that reduced retention of Hoechst 33342 in certain cell types (because of rapid efflux) can be blocked by efflux blockers, thus leading to generation of typical DNA distribution histograms. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Spermatogenesis in adult is a complex stepwise process leading to terminally differentiated spermatozoa. The cellular heterogeneity of testis renders complex the studies on molecular aspects of this differentiation process. Analysis of the regulation of adult spermatogenesis would undoubtedly benefit from the development of techniques to characterize each germinal differentiation step. METHODS: Hoechst 33342 staining of mouse testicular cells allows characterization of an enriched population in germinal stem cell and spermatogonia, called side population. In this study, we examined the definition of the various germinal populations stained by Hoechst 33342, notably meiotic and postmeiotic cells. RESULTS: Preleptotene spermatocytes, spermatocyte I, spermatocyte II, and round and elongated spermatids were discriminated by Hoechst 33342 staining. In addition, we associated differentiation of spermatocyte I through leptotene to diplotene with changes in Hoechst 33342 red fluorescence pattern. CONCLUSIONS: Hoechst 33342 staining of viable germinal cells constitutes a valuable tool to study normal and impaired mouse adult spermatogenesis or to isolate viable cells from various differentiation stages for studies of molecular mechanisms regulating spermatogenesis. 相似文献

The monoclonal antibodies Trop-4 and 4F2 recognize cell surface antigens present on peripheral blood monocytes, activated lymphocytes, and on continuous cell lines, but not on resting lymphocytes in blood. The membrane antigens detected by antibodies Trop-4 and 4F2 were compared by serial immunoprecipitations from membrane lysates of surface labeled T lymphoid cells and by parallel polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic analysis. It is shown that both to these antibodies recognize the heavy subunit of the heterodimeric membrane complex of an 85,000 m.w. glycoprotein disulphide linked to a light subunit of 41,000 m.w. The kinetics of the expression of the antigen was studied by indirect immunofluorescence on peripheral blood T lymphocytes during blast transformation induced by concanavalin A in vitro and during reversion of the lymphocytes back to small "secondary" lymphocytes. Upon activation of T lymphocytes with concanavalin A, the first blast cells staining with the antibodies appear within 6 hr after the initiation of the culture. After 18 hr, all blast cells displayed strong expression of the antigen. Inhibition of DNA synthesis by hydroxyurea treatment did not affect the early blast transformation and the expression of the antigen. When the mitogen-induced blast cells reverted back to small secondary lymphocytes during prolonged culturing for up to 18 days, these cells retained the expression of the antigen detected by antibodies Trop-4 and 4F2, whereas another membrane marker of activation, the transferrin receptor, rapidly disappeared. These findings demonstrate a phenotypical difference between primed, secondary T lymphocytes and resting, unstimulated cells. 相似文献
