The role of oxygen radicals in immune complex injury

In this review we will summarize our current understanding of the mediation of immune complex induced tissue injury. Comparisons will be made between the mediation of IgG versus IgA immune complex injury with emphasis on the role that reactive oxygen products derived from leukocytic phagocytic cells play in the initiation of the tissue injury.     

Echinococcus multilocularis: Immunoglobulin and antibody response in C57BL6J mice

Each of 50 male C57BL/6J mice was infected intraperitoneally with 50 cysts of Echinococcus multilocularis. At 2, 4, 6, 8, and 14 weeks after infection, 10 mice were sacrificed, their larval cyst masses weighed, and their sera collected. Each serum sample from uninfected control and infected mice was adsorbed twice with two batches of E. multilocularis antigen conjugated to Sepharose beads. The concentrations of IgG1, IgG2a, IgG2b, IgM, and IgA in unadsorbed and IgG1, IgG2b, and IgM in adsorbed sera were quantified by the radial immunodiffusion technique. Hydatid mice produced increasingly large amounts of IgG1 and IgM; small measurable increases of IgG2b and no significant increases of IgG2a and IgA were observed during the course of infection. During the rapid growth phase of the cysts (6 to 14 weeks) IgG1 antibodies were found to range from 86 to 93% and IgM antibodies from 17 to 33% of the total IgG1 and IgM. However, the actual protein concentrations of IgM antibodies (761 and 1215 mg/dl) were higher than the sum of the protein concentrations of IgG1 and IgG2b antibodies (411 and 779 mg/dl). The significance of the relative concentrations of IgM, IgG1, IgG2a, and IgG2b antibodies is discussed with reference to their effectiveness in antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity and complement-mediated lysis in the control of alveolar hydatid disease.     

Herpes Simplex Virus-Specific IgM,IgA and IgG Subclass Antibody Responses in Primary and Nonprimary Genital Herpes Patients

To clarify the humoral immunity in herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection, HSV-specific IgM, IgA and IgG subclass antibody responses were studied in patients with genital herpes: 17 primary, 13 recurrent and 6 nonprimary first episode. A total of 181 serum samples serially collected from the patients, 5 per patient until 213 days after the onset of disease (on average), were analyzed by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. IgGl, IgG3 and IgA were detected in all patients with primary and nonprimary infections, whereas IgG4 was detected in 74% of only those with nonprimary infections and IgG2 was detected in none. IgM was detected in 100% of the patients with primary infections, but also in 68% of those with nonprimary infections. IgA showed a peak similar to that of IgM in patients with primary infections. No significant difference was observed in the detection rate or pattern of antibody responses between the recurrent and nonprimary first episode infections, nor between the HSV-1 and HSV-2 infections. These findings may be useful to improve the diagnostic potential of HSV serology.

Combined immunoabsorption and isoelectric focusing of barley and malt amylases in polyacrylamine gel.

A technique combining immunoabsorption, isoelectric focusing, and enzymatic characterizationin the same polyacrylamide gel is described. The a- and 0-amylases from barley seeds, an immune serum induced in rabbits by barley malt α-amylase, the immunoglobulin G (IgG) of the immune serum, and the IgG purified from a nonimmunized animal were used. The application of this technique in physiological and genetical studies to the identification of amylolytic enzymes which cannot be distinguished by existing chromogenic reactions and which have similar isoelectric points is discussed.     

改良抗体捕获ELISA方法检测流行性出血热特异性IgE,IgA,IgG抗体的初步研究

初步报道建立了一种检测流行性出血热(EHF)特异性IgE、IgA、IgG抗体的改良抗体捕获ELISA方法(EacELISA,AacELISA,GacELISA)。该法以抗人IgE、IgA或IgG单克隆抗体作包被抗体;酶标记物系两株组特异性较强的EHF·McAb(A_(35),A_(25-1)株);在实验中采用EHF病毒抗原与酶标记物混合后一次加入,而不是分别依次加入的方式,使操作步骤简化,实验时间缩短,又适当提高了试验敏感性。该法具有简便,特异性高,灵敏度较高(检测EHF·IgE,EHF·IgA>1:100;EHF·IgG>1:2560),重复性较好(CV:EHF·IgE 2.51％,EHF·IgA 11.80％,EHF·IgG 10.85％)等优点。检测39份EHF病人血清,急性期病人(3～7病日)血清三种抗体的检出率分别为84.21％(16/19,EHF·IgG),89.47％(17/19,EHF·IgA)和100％(19/19,EHF·IgG);而发病3～6月后患者血清三种抗体检出率分别为10.00％(2/20),45.00％(9/20)和100.00％。在急性期与恢复期病人之间,EHF·IgE和EHF·IgA两种抗体的检出率差异较显著(P<0.01)。70价其他人群血清三种抗体检出率均为阴性。     

Variable Region Identical IgA and IgE to Cryptococcus neoformans Capsular Polysaccharide Manifest Specificity Differences

In recent years several groups have shown that isotype switching from IgM to IgG to IgA can affect the affinity and specificity of antibodies sharing identical variable (V) regions. However, whether the same applies to IgE is unknown. In this study we compared the fine specificity of V region-identical IgE and IgA to Cryptococcus neoformans capsular polysaccharide and found that these differed in specificity from each other. The IgE and IgA paratopes were probed by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy with ¹⁵N-labeled peptide mimetics of cryptococcal polysaccharide antigen (Ag). IgE was found to cleave the peptide at a much faster rate than V region-identical IgG subclasses and IgA, consistent with an altered paratope. Both IgE and IgA were opsonic for C. neoformans and protected against infection in mice. In summary, V-region expression in the context of the ϵ constant (C) region results in specificity changes that are greater than observed for comparable IgG subclasses. These results raise the possibility that expression of certain V regions in the context of α and ϵ C regions affects their function and contributes to the special properties of those isotypes.     

Fugu immunoglobulin D: a highly unusual gene with unprecedented duplications in its constant region

We have isolated and characterized the cDNA that encodes IgD of fugu (Takifugu rubripes). Though the splicing of 1 with the 1 domain was similar to those reported for teleost IgDs, highly unusual and unprecedented domain duplications were found in the constant region of the fugu IgD. The structure of the fugu IgD is like VDJ-1-(1-2-3-4-5-6)₂-7-m1-m2. Genomic sequence analysis of the fugu IgD gene supported the results of cDNA sequencing that the first six domains in the constant region are duplicated. Such a novel duplication pattern has not been reported in any other vertebrates. However, IgD secretory domains could not be identified in this study. The deduced amino acid sequence of the fugu IgD constant region showed high identity (35–55%) to the sequences of previously reported teleost IgDs. Gene expression analyses based on RT-PCR demonstrated that the IgD gene is preferentially expressed in presumptive lymphoid tissues; moreover, in situ hybridization showed that IgD-positive cells are distributed throughout the spleen and head kidney. The expression pattern is similar to that of IgM, corroborating the hypothesis that IgD plays an important role in the humoral immune system of this species.The nucleotide sequence data reported in this paper will appear in the DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank nucleotide sequence databases with the accession numbers AB159481 and AB159482.     

Immunologic aspects of human colostrum and milk—A misinterpretation

Interpretations of the demographic impact of Western diseases are frequently clouded by a failure to appreciate the complex nature of immune responses. It is commonly assumed that epidemic diseases are generally characterized by both transplacental and lacteal transmission of maternal antibodies. This is not, however, the case for viral diseases, such as measles, smallpox, and influenza–-all of which reached epidemic proportions during the post-Columbian era. In this paper I review the nature of the immune response for viral diseases, with emphasis upon measles, a disease that contributed heavily to the demise of native peoples. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

Antibody response against plasmid-encoded toxin (Pet) and the protein involved in intestinal colonization (Pic) in children with diarrhea produced by enteroaggregative Escherichia coli

Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) is an emerging cause of pediatric and adult travellers diarrhea. The mechanism by which EAEC induce diarrhea is not completely known. Two serine protease autotransporter proteins, named Pet and Pic have been identified in EAEC strains. Pet has enterotoxic and cytotoxic activities, while the role of Pic in pathogenesis may lie on its mucinolytic activity. Little is known about Pet and Pic biological activities in vivo. In this study the antibody responses against these autotransporter proteins in convalescent children is investigated. Fifteen (83%) children showed specific antibodies against Pet or Pic in their sera. IgG and IgM antibodies were the main isotype found. Specific antibodies against Pic, but not against Pet, were detected in sera from age-matched control group. These data show that specific anti-Pet and anti-Pic antibodies are produced during the course of a natural EAEC infection in children.     

CD300 antigen like family member G: A novel Ig receptor like protein exclusively expressed on capillary endothelium

We report the characteristics of CD300LG, a member of the CD300 antigen like family. Its genomic structure is similar in both mouse and human, and at least four isoforms exist in both species. The amino acid sequence of the immunoglobulin (Ig) V like domain of CD300LG showed approximately 35% identity to those of the polymeric Ig receptor (pIgR) and Fcalpha/muR. Interestingly, mouse CD300LG proteins were uniquely expressed on capillary endothelium. Immunoelectron microscopy revealed that mouse CD300LG is localized on both apical and basolateral plasma membranes, as well as on intracellular vesicular structures, in the capillary endothelium. Transcytosis assays using polarized MDCK epithelial cells showed that CD300LG could be transcytosed bidirectionally. Furthermore, CD300LG exogenously expressed on HeLa cells could take up IgA2 and IgM, but not IgG. These results suggest that CD300LG might play an important role in molecular traffic across the capillary endothelium.

Immunoglobulin secreting cells in lymphocytes of patients with IgA deficiency or hyper-IgA

To assess the ability of immunoglobulin production in vivo, we enumerated the immunoglobulin secreting cells in the peripheral blood of patients with an IgA deficiency and of those with hyper-IgAemia. All seven patients with primary IgA deficiency and two of the three patients with secondary IgA deficiency had low numbers of IgA secreting cells. In all five patients with hyper-IgA the number of IgA secreting cells was increased. Our results suggest that measurement of immunoglobulin secreting cells in PBMCs is useful in the assessment of ability of immunoglobulin production in vivo.Abbreviations PBMCs peripheral blood mononuclear cells - MEM minimum essential medium - PFC plaque forming cells - VH immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region - CH immunoglobulin heavy chain constant region
