Spore coat proteins obtained by extraction with sodium dodecylsulfate/dithiothreitol from six Bacillus spores were compared by immunoblot analysis using antibodies to spore coat proteins from two strains of B. megaterium. Although the extract from spores of each strain had heterogenous proteins with various molecular weights, there were some bands which cross-reacted with specific antibodies from B. megaterium spores. Specific antibody to 48K protein from B. megaterium ATCC 12872 cross-reacted with 17K protein from B. megaterium ATCC 19213, 13K protein from B. cereus and 50K protein from B. subtilis 60015 and B. subtilis NRRL B558. Also, specific antibody to 22K protein from the same strain cross-reacted with 22K and 17K proteins from B. megaterium ATCC 19213 and 13K protein from B. cereus T. Specific antibody to 17K protein from B. megaterium ATCC 19213 reacted with 22K and 19K proteins in addition to 17K protein of own strain, and it was cross-reactive with 16K protein from B. megaterium ATCC 12872, 19K and 27K proteins from B. thiaminolyticus, 13K protein from B. cereus. 相似文献

Soluble antigens from epimastigotes of Trypanosoma cruzi were analyzed by western blot in terms of their reactivity with sera from patients with Chagas' disease. In addition, sera from patients with visceral (AVL) and tegumental leishmaniasis (ATL) were also tested in order to identify cross-reactivities with Trypanosoma cruzi antigens. Twenty eight polypeptides with molecular weights ranging from 14 kDa to 113 kDa were identified with sera from Chagas' disease patients. An extensive cross-reactivity was observed when sera from human visceral leishmaniasis were used, while only a slight cross-reaction was observed with sera from tegumental leishmaniasis. On the other hand, 10 polypeptides specifically reacting with sera from Chagas' disease patients were identified. Among them, the antigens with molecular weights of 46 kDa and 25 kDa reacted with all sera tested and may be good candidates for specific immunodiagnosis of Chagas' disease. 相似文献

The immune antimyeloblast serum (AMS) was obtained from horses immunized with white blood cells from patients suffering from chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) at the blast crisis stage; the serum was completely absorbed with normal red blood cells and white blood cells (WBC). The absorbed antiserum remained cytotoxic to blast cells from 20 of 42 patients with CML at the blast crisis stage. AMS failed to react with the WBC from patients with CML in its chronic phase, and from patients with other types of leukemia Morphological studies indicated a possibility of identification of the antigen associated with myeloblasts from the blood of patients with CML blast crisis, by means to AMS. 相似文献

Specificity of antigens from pathogenic Aspergillus species. I. Studies with ELISA and immunofluorescence 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Studies were made by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and indirect fluorescent antibody (IFA) tests on the reactivities and specificities of 13 antigens prepared from four species of Aspergillus against antisera from immunized rabbits and 64 sera from patients with aspergillosis, other systemic mycoses and nocardiosis. Although reactions in both serological tests were invariably strongest with homologous antigen: antibody systems, antisera from rabbits immunized with A. fumigatus, Blastomyces dermatitidis, Candida albicans and Paracoccidioides brasiliensis reacted in the ELISA test with all of the Aspergillus antigens. In contrast, cross-reactivity was virtually non-existent with antiserum to Histoplasma capsulatum. Of five antigens prepared from A fumigatus tested by ELISA against human sera from patients with aspergillosis and other nocardial and systemic fungal infections, sensitivities varied from 81 to 100% for sera from 32 patients with aspergillosis, and specificities from 20 to 97% for sera from 30 patients with nocardiosis and other systemic mycoses. Purified A. fumigatus C antigen reacted weakly with sera from eight of these 30 patients, but the reactions were readily distinguishable from those obtained with sera from patients with aspergillosis. At optimal serum dilutions, cross-reactivities of A. fumigatus in the IFA studies were non-existent in the sera from 28 patients with candidosis, coccidioidomycosis, cryptococcosis, histoplasmosis, paracoccidioidomycosis and nocardiosis. Sensitivities of IFA were 94% for patients with aspergilloma and 83% for patients with allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis. 相似文献

Fluorescent antibodies prepared against extracellular particles from a continuous culture of cells derived from a monocytic leukemia stained JIII cells but not cells infected with Rauscher leukemia virus or simian sarcoma virus. These antibodies reacted with 38% of bone marrow preparations from patients with lymphoma, 26% of preparations from patients with nonmalignant blood disorders and 6% of preparations from patients with leukemia. Bone marrow films from patients with lymphoma over the age of 50 stained less frequently than those from patients under 50. These particles released from JIII cells are not antigenically related to two of the commonly studied oncornaviruses, but may be indicative of the etiology or disease process of lymphoma in young patients. 相似文献

Summary A comparative study has been made of glycosaminoglycan (GAG) accumulation in human fibroblasts with trisomy 7 and triploidy from spontaneous abortuses, fibroblasts with triploidy from induced abortuses, fibroblasts from patients with Down's syndrome and diploid fibroblasts from age-matched controls. The study demonstrated that the incorporation of [3H]glucosamine into hyaluronic acid by fibroblasts with trisomy 7 and triploidy, established from spontaneous abortuses, and from two out of three induced abortuses with triploidy, was 2.6–5.3 times lower than control incorporation. One strain of fibroblasts from an induced abortus with triploidy (IMG-1062) did not show any differences in GAG production when compared with diploid fibroblasts. However, the strains from children with Down's syndrome revealed normal or even increased levels of hyaluronic acid production. The data support the contention that the decreased hyaluronic acid synthesis in fibroblasts with an abnormal karyotype is related to spontaneous abortion. 相似文献

Flow cytometry was used for the investigation of the DNA distribution in biopsy specimens from 51 patients with cervical carcinoma. Portio biopsy specimens from 9 pregnant women and from 10 patients with cancer of the breast served as controls. The results demonstrate that most specimens from patients suffering from cervical carcinoma contain considerable cell populations with increased DNA as compared with controls. The possible clinical significance of these findings is discussed. 相似文献

We carried out a study to evaluate the quality of results obtained by 14 nontechnical medical office personnel using desktop analysers. The instruments evaluated were the Reflotron analyser, the Seralyzer, the Vision analyser and the DT60 analyser. For precision studies low and high concentrations of control materials were used. For correlation studies the results obtained by the office personnel were compared with those obtained by a trained technologist. The coefficient of variation for the office personnel ranged from 3.0% to 8.1% with the Reflotron analyser, from 6.3% to 26.5% with the Seralyzer, from 1.0% to 4.1% with the Vision analyser and from 1.4% to 16.7% with the DT60 analyser. The correlation coefficient ranged from 0.970 to 0.997 with the Reflotron analyser, from 0.779 to 0.997 with the Seralyzer, from 0.975 to 0.998 with the Vision analyser and from 0.963 to 0.995 with the DT60 analyser. The proportion of results obtained by the office personnel that differed by more than 10% from those obtained by the technologist was 7% with the Reflotron analyser, 42% with the Seralyzer, 2% with the Vision analyser and 21% with the DT60 analyser. The instruments whose operation involves the least number of steps gave the most reliable results in the hands of medical office personnel. 相似文献

Two hundred and ninety-one grass silage samples from 113 farms with recent outbreaks of listeriosis were examined for the presence of Listeria monocytogenes (Lm). The frequency of Lm isolations increased with increasing pH. Lm was isolated from 22 % of the samples with pH < 4, from 37 % with pH 4–5 and from 56 % with pH > 5. Formic acid had been used as additive. A similar investigation was carried out on 32 samples from a farm with no outbreak of listeriosis during the investigation period. Lm was isolated from 9 samples. 相似文献

The immunoblotting technique was used to analyse polypeptides of purified Epstein-Barr virus reacting with antibodies present in sera from clinically healthy individuals, from patients with infectious mononucleosis (IM) or AIDS, and from renal transplant recipients with molecular sizes in the range of 40–290 kDa were detected.The 47- and 160-kDa nucleocapsid polypeptides, as well as the 72-, 74-, 140-, 220- and 290-kDa membrane polypeptides were the major viral proteins detected in the sera. Sera from clinically healthy individuals contained antibodies directed against all EBV membrane and nucleocapsid antigens. Sera from renal transplant recipients, from patients with IM and from patients with AIDS failed to react with certain nucleocapsid and membrane antigens; in particular, sera from AIDS patients and renal transplant recipients did not react with the 220-kDa polypeptide, one of the major membrane antigens, while sera from subjects with IM and from healthy individuals did.A high proportion of sera from patients with IM (38% vs 5% of clinically healthy individuals and 0–5% of the AIDS patients and renal transplant recipients) reacted with a 42-kDa polypeptide, suggesting its possible role in acute EBV infection. 相似文献

Summary Leaf discs approximately 8 mm in diameter taken from green and from chlorotic areas of variegated leaves ofColeus were grown in light under sterile conditions in a mineral salt, sucrose, vitamin medium supplemented with auxin and cytokinin.
Green shoots, which later formed roots, grew from both green and chlorotic discs in media containing suitable amounts of auxin
and cytokinin. None developed in media supplemented with auxin alone or with cytokinin alone. Discs with young plants were
transferred to soil. Plants that grew varied widely from those with no chlorosis to those with more chlorosis than the original
variety from which the discs were taken. Plants grown from discs taken from green areas of leaves with chlorosis varied in
patterns of chlorosis as much as those that grew from discs from chlorotic areas of leaves.

Lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) and alpha-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (HBD) and LDH isozyme patterns were studied in serum from newborns and patients with ovarian cancer or myocardial infarction. LDH and HBD activities from newborns and patients with ovarian cancer or myocardial infarction were significantly increased, compared with those from patients with benign ovarian tumor. These increases were accompanied with a decrease of LDH-H and an increase of LDH-M in serum from newborns and patients with ovarian cancer, while an increase of LDH-H in serum from patients with myocardial infarction was dominant. However, the raised HBD activities in serum from patients with benign ovarian tumor did not affect the LDH isozyme patterns. From analysis of linear regression, a negative correlation between LDH-1 or -2 and HBD activity in serum from patients with ovarian cancer was observed while there was a positive correlation between LDH-4 and HBD activity. Similar patterns in serum from newborns were observed. On the other hand, a positive correlation between LDH-1 and HBD activity and a negative correlation between LDH-4 and HBD activity were found in serum from patients with myocardial infarction. 相似文献

By manifold immunizations of rabbits with virgin or modified trypsin inhibitor III from squash seeds and trypsin inhibitor II b from cucumber seeds, specific antibodies were produced. In double immunodiffusion the anti-squash inhibitor antibody also gave weak precipitate arcs with inhibitor I from squash, inhibitor II from summer squash and with inhibitor I from zucchini, but not with inhibitor II b from cucumber seeds. The genus of Cucurbita trypsin inhibitors, preincubated with the antibody, lost their antitrypsin activity. The antibody showed a significantly weaker effect on the activity of the inhibitor from cucumber sees. 1H-NMR and CD spectra also confirm structural differences between trypsin inhibitors from the genus of Cucurbita and the cucumber (genus of Cucumis) inhibitor. 相似文献

Membrane-bound beta-glucosidase from cultured skin fibroblasts can be solubilized in an active form by treatment of membrane preparations with a mixture of Triton X-100 and sodium taurocholate. Several properties of the solubilized enzyme have been studied in fibroblasts from normal, healthy individuals and from 14 patients with different clinical forms of Gaucher disease. The patients studied were classified as follows: group 1 consisted of 10 chronic patients, all (with one exception) of Ashkenazi Jewish origin; group 2 consisted of three black American patients with severe visceral symptoms, manifest from early childhood, but with no apparent neurological involvement; and group 3 consisted of a single white patient with the classical infantile form of the disease. Specific beta-glucosidase activity ranged from 6.6% to 16.5% mean control value in group 1 patients and from 4.1% to 5.8% in groups 2 and 3. When compared with the enzyme from control fibroblasts, the enzyme from chronic Gaucher patients (group 1) was more rapidly inactivated at 50 degrees C, had an altered pH curve, was less effectively inhibited by deoxycorticosterone-beta-glucoside, and was more effectively inhibited by deoxycorticosterone. The enzyme from patients in groups 2 and 3 was qualitatively indistinguishable from the control enzyme in terms of these parameters. No differences in Km (4-methylumbelliferyl-beta-glucoside) or sedimentation coefficient were found between the beta-glucosidases from control and Gaucher cells. The results demonstrate that cells from Ashkenazi Jewish patients with the chronic form of Gaucher disease contain a structurally altered form of beta-glucosidase. This enzyme differs both from normal beta-glucosidase and from the residual enzyme in patients of different ethnic origin and with clinically more severe forms of the disease. 相似文献

Specific antibodies against the histone H2A from calf thymus were generated by injecting rabbits with complexes: histone H2A-RNA with a protein to RNA ratio of 3:1. In the microcomplement fixation assay the antibodies against the histone H2A from calf thymus immuno-reacted with the histone H2A from calf thymus but not with H2A from Physarum polycephalum. The histone H2A from calf thymus therefore appears to have an immunological determinant(s) which does not exist in H2A from Physarum polycephalum. 相似文献

1. Rapidly labelled RNA from rat liver, either as a complex with DNA (m-RNA-DNA) or with ribosomal RNA (m-RNA-RNA) binds to ribosomes in the polysome region. No binding could be demonstrated with ribosomal RNA or native DNA from Bacillus subtilis. 2. With ribosomes from rat liver, Escherichia coli or hepatoma the m-RNA-DNA stimulated incorporation of amino acids with rat-liver ribosomes only, whereas the m-RNA-RNA complex was effective with ribosomes from E. coli or the hepatoma. 3. Polyuridylic acid was effective as messenger RNA with all three ribosomes but much greater stimulation was obtained with ribosomes from E. coli and the hepatoma. 4. The degree of incorporation of phenylalanine with polyuridylic acid and ribosomes from a hepatoma was decreased by about 50% when ribosomal RNA was present. 相似文献

Bacterial populations adherent to the mucosa of the proximal colons of weaned, healthy pigs were compared with populations from pigs with dysentery induced by inoculation with a culture of Treponema hyodysenteriae. Isolates (136) representative of the predominant flora adherent to colonic epithelia of normal pigs and isolates (162) from pigs with dysentery were cultured anaerobically on a rumen fluid-based medium and characterized. Most (71%) of the isolates from colonic epithelia of normal pigs were gram positive, whereas 88% of the epithelia-associated isolates from pigs with dysentery were gram negative. The geometric mean of colony counts was 5.7 X 10(7)/cm2 of colonic tissue from three normal pigs and 7.7 X 10(8)/cm2 from four pigs with dysentery. A number of isolates obtained from contents of the lumens of normal pigs with dysentery were also characterized. Comparison of isolates from epithelial tissue and from contents of the lumens of the same pig indicated that these populations were different. Our results indicate that physiological changes that occur in the colons of pigs with dysentery are accompanied by marked changes in the microbial populations in the colons. The factors which regulate the population changes are not yet understood. 相似文献

Expression of cross-reactive, shared idiotypes on anti-SEA antibodies from humans and mice with schistosomiasis 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Immunoaffinity-purified antibodies against Schistosoma mansoni soluble egg Ag (SEA) from infected patients' sera differ idiotypically according to the donor's clinical form of the disease. The Id differ both by their ability to stimulate proliferation of anti-Id T cells and their recognition by anti-Id-specific sera. Also, mice infected with S. mansoni develop anti-Id T and B cell responses against mouse anti-SEA antibodies. We now show that anti-SEA antibodies from serum pools of chronic, but asymptomatic patients (AM1 and AM5) stimulate proliferation of spleen cells from mice infected with S. mansoni. However, AM8, anti-SEA antibodies from hepatosplenic patients, did not stimulate these spleen cells. The murine responses directly parallel patient studies where AM1 and AM5 Id-stimulated human PBMC, but AM8 Id did not. In competitive ELISA, using AM1 or AM-5-specific rabbit antisera or human anti-SEA mAb E5-specific rabbit antiserum, sera from mice infected for 8 and 16 wk (but not from uninfected mice) compete with AM1, AM5, or E5. These sera do not compete in the AM8/anti-AM8 competitive ELISA. Sera from 8-wk-infected mice inhibit more against AM1, AM5, and E5 than do sera from later infections, and anti-SEA immunoaffinity-purified antibodies from 8-wk-infected mice stimulate spleen cells from infected mice more than anti-SEA antibodies from sera of mice late in infection. However, spleen cells from more chronically infected mice are more responsive to either the murine or human anti-SEA antibody preparations than cells from mice with earlier infections. Both the ELISA data and lymphocyte responses indicate that anti-SEA antibodies from mice infected with S. mansoni for 8 wk bear Id cross-reactive with those expressed on anti-SEA antibodies from humans with chronic, asymptomatic schistosomiasis, but not those from hepatosplenic patients. 相似文献

An enhanced RNA-transport activity was observed in vitro from nuclei obtained from animals with cardiac hypertrophy as compared with that of sham-operated controls. The 100 000 g supernatants obtained from hypertrophic hearts stimulated the RNA transport from nuclei of sham-operated controls, and this stimulation was maximum with 40% supernatant. Ca2+- and nucleic acid-dependent ATPase and alkaline phosphatase activities, which may be involved in an energy-dependent transport, were high in nuclei from hypertrophic hearts, and the nuclei of sham-operated animals showed higher activities of these enzymes after incubation with supernatant from hypertrophic hearts, which stimulates the RNA transport in vitro from nuclei of sham-operated animals. 相似文献
