The monoclonal antibody FN18 has been used as a marker for monkey T cells and as a T-cell-depleting reagent when conjugated to diphtheria toxin that was mutated to prevent binding to non-targeted cells. The antibody recognizes a conformational epitope on the ectodomain of monkey CD3epsilon and displays a range of binding activity to the T cells from different rhesus and cynomolgus monkeys. Our quantitative fluorescence-activated cell sorting analysis of the FN18 reactivity to T cells from different rhesus and cynomolgus monkeys showed that there are at least three levels of FN18 reactivity in the monkeys tested: high, moderate and low. On the basis of available DNA sequence information, we determined the gene structure of rhesus CD3epsilon chain and designed primers that can be used to amplify and quickly sequence the ectodomain of monkey CD3epsilon. Our sequence analysis revealed that the extent of nucleotide sequence variation in this area is greater than that previously reported. In addition to the amino acids at positions 45 and 50, we demonstrated that position 35 of CD3epsilon was also important and substitution of amino acid A for V at this position greatly reduced T-cell reactivity to FN18. We found that T cells from monkeys with high FN18 reactivity all had V, E and R at positions 35, 45 and 50 in CD3epsilon, respectively; those having low FN18 reactivity were homozygous in CD3epsilon with at least one of the changes: V35 to A, E45 to G and R to 50Q, whereas members in the moderate group are heterozygous, having both V and A, E and G, R and Q at these locations. A cytotoxicity assay revealed that T cells from a heterozygous rhesus monkey with moderate FN18 reactivity were much (about 40 times) less sensitive to a FN18-derived immunotoxin than those from a homozygous rhesus monkey having high FN18 reactivity. 相似文献

Cynomolgus monkeys were divided into two groups in terms of the reactivity of their lymphocytes with the FN18 monoclonal antibody, which is directed to the CD3 of rhesus monkeys. It was shown that 24 (12.2%) out of 196 monkeys did not have lymphocytes that reacted with the FN18, although T cells from those animals responded well to mitogenic stimulation. We have determined the nucleotide sequences of the CD3delta, CD3gamma, and CD3epsilon chains and found that two amino acids of the CD3epsilon chain of the FN18 non-reactive monkeys were different when compared with the FN18 reactive monkeys. Our results indicated that the CD3epsilon molecule of cynomolgus monkeys is polymorphic at the epitope level, which is recognized by the FN18 monoclonal antibody. 相似文献

The FN18 monoclonal antibody (mAb), directed to CD3 molecules, did not react with the lymphocytes of some cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis), because of the polymorphism of the CD3epsilon chain. The epitope recognized by the FN18 mAb was successfully expressed on COS7 cells upon transfection of plasmid DNA coding for the CD3epsilon derived from T cells of a FN18 positive cynomolgus monkey. By construction and expression of plasmid DNA encoding the mutant CD3epsilon, the amino acid residue at position 67 was demonstrated to be involved in the formation of an epitope recognizable by the FN18 mAb. 相似文献

A study was conducted to determine the number and chromosomal location of quantitative trait loci (QTL) influencing the concentration of five fatty acids in 200 F2S1 lines derived from an Illinois High Oil (IHO) by Illinois Low Oil (Early Maturity) (ILO(EM)) cross. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis was performed on the 200 S1 lines and concentrations of palmitic (16:0), stearic (18:0), oleic (18:1), linoleic (18:2), and linolenic (18:3) acids were determined in self-pollinated kernels harvested from plants grown in replicated field trials during 1992 and 1993. A series of 74 cDNA and genomic clones were used and these revealed 80 polymorphic loci spaced, on average, 24 cM apart throughout the maize genome. Analysis of variance detected significant (p < 0.05) associations between several RFLP loci and the concentration of each fatty acid. A total of 15 RFLP loci clustered in 12 chromosomal regions were associated with the concentration of 16:0, 17 loci clustered in 10 regions were associated with the concentration of 18:0, 12 loci clustered in eight regions were associated with the concentration of 18:1 and 18:2, and 17 loci clustered in eight regions were associated with the concentration of 18:3. Multiple linear regression models consisting of four RFLP loci explained 24 and 62% of the total phenotypic and genotypic variation (R2) among the 200 F2S1 lines for 16:0, five loci explained 51 and 71% of the variation for 18:0, three loci explained 67 and 79% of the variation for 18:1, two loci explained 67 and 81% of the variation for 18:2, and seven loci explained 52 and 78% of the variation for 18:3 in these 200 F2S1 lines. The ratio of 18:1 to 18:2 was tightly interrelated as the same QTL were associated with the concentrations of 18:1 and 18:2. A quantitative trait locus that explained 63% of the phenotypic variation in the ratio of 18:1 to 18:2 is tightly linked to umc65 on chromosome 6 in the region of the linoleic acid1 locus. 相似文献

Previously, we have shown that horses could be divided into susceptible and resistant groups based on an in vitro assay using dual-color flow cytometric analysis of CD3+ T cells infected with equine arteritis virus (EAV). Here, we demonstrate that the differences in in vitro susceptibility of equine CD3+ T lymphocytes to EAV infection have a genetic basis. To investigate the possible hereditary basis for this trait, we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) to compare susceptible and resistant phenotypes. Testing of 267 DNA samples from four horse breeds that had a susceptible or a resistant CD3+ T lymphocyte phenotype using both Illumina Equine SNP50 BeadChip and Sequenom's MassARRAY system identified a common, genetically dominant haplotype associated with the susceptible phenotype in a region of equine chromosome 11 (ECA11), positions 49572804 to 49643932. The presence of a common haplotype indicates that the trait occurred in a common ancestor of all four breeds, suggesting that it may be segregated among other modern horse breeds. Biological pathway analysis revealed several cellular genes within this region of ECA11 encoding proteins associated with virus attachment and entry, cytoskeletal organization, and NF-κB pathways that may be associated with the trait responsible for the in vitro susceptibility/resistance of CD3+ T lymphocytes to EAV infection. The data presented in this study demonstrated a strong association of genetic markers with the trait, representing de facto proof that the trait is under genetic control. To our knowledge, this is the first GWAS of an equine infectious disease and the first GWAS of equine viral arteritis. 相似文献

Recently, a bivalent recombinant anti-human CD3 diphtheria toxin (DT) based immunotoxin derived from the scFv of UCHT1 antibody has been made that shows enhanced bioactivity and is free from the side effects of Fc receptor interaction. In this case, the diminution of CD3 binding due to the placement of the scFv domain at the C-terminus of the truncated DT in single scFv immunotoxins was compensated by adding an additional scFv domain. However, this strategy was less successful for constructing an anti-rhesus recombinant immunotoxin derived from the scFv of FN18 antibody due to poor binding of the anti-rhesus bivalent immunotoxin. We report here that, by increasing the FN18 scFv affinity through random mutagenesis and selection with a dye-labeled monkey CD3epsilongamma recombinant heterodimer, we greatly improved the bioactivity of FN18 derived immunotoxin. The best mutant, C207, contained nine mutations, two of which were located in CDRs that changed the charge from negative to positive. Binding affinity of the C207 scFv to the monkey T cell line HSC-F increased 9.8-fold. The potency of the C207 bivalent immunotoxin assayed by inhibition of protein synthesis increased by 238-fold. 相似文献

Expression of the beta6 integrin subunit is associated with sites of neutrophil influx in lung epithelium. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Inhalation of ozone by Rhesus monkeys results in epithelial injury and granulocyte influx in both conducting airways and respiratory bronchioles. We have reported that ozone-induced neutrophil recruitment and subsequent epithelial repair can be inhibited in vivo with a CD18 antibody. The antibody-mediated effect is abrogated by local instillation of C5a (a CD18-independent neutrophil chemoattractant), thereby demonstrating a role for neutrophils in lung epithelial repair processes. As an extension of this study, we examined the effect of ozone and neutrophil influx on epithelial expression of the beta6 integrin, an adhesion molecule associated with proliferation and repair. Expression of beta6 integrin was determined by immunohistochemistry for ozone-exposed monkeys treated with either control immunoglobulins or a CD18 antibody. The tracheal epithelium of ozone-exposed monkeys treated with control immunglobulins expressed the beta6 integrin. In contrast, the tracheal epithelium of ozone-exposed monkeys treated with CD18 antibody exhibited very low to undetectable expression of beta6 integrin. In association with C5a instillation and neutrophil influx, beta6 integrin was also observed in respiratory bronchiolar epithelium from both control and ozone-exposed animals. These findings cumulatively suggest that lung epithelial cell expression of beta6 integrin is associated with sites of neutrophil recruitment. 相似文献

An experimental test is described for linkages between RFLP markers and quantitative trait loci (QTL). Two hundred and eighty-four F7-derived recombinant inbred lines (RIL) obtained from crossing the soybean cultivars (Glycine max L. Merr.) Minsoy and Noir 1 were evaluated for maturity, plant height, lodging, and seed yield. RIL exhibiting an extreme phenotype for each trait (earliest and latest plants for maturity, etc.) were selected, and two bulked DNA samples were prepared for each trait. A Southern transfer of the digested bulked DNA was hybridized with restriction fragement length polymorphism (RFLP) probes, and linkages with QTL were established by quantitating the amount of radioactive probe that bound to fragments defining alternative parental RFLP alleles. When an RFLP marker was linked to a QTL, one parental allele predominated in the bulked DNA from a particular phenotype; the other allele was associated with the opposite phenotype. When linkage was absent, radioactivity was associated equally with both alleles for a given phenotype (or with both phenotypes for a given allele). These results confirmed RFLP-QTL associations previously discovered by interval mapping on a smaller segregating population from the same cross. New linkages to QTL were also verified. 相似文献

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is composed of a number of macromolecules that promote cell adhesion, cell migration, and differentiation. Receptors for these molecules have been identified and belong to a superfamily of cell surface proteins, collectively known as the integrins. In this study, we show that the matrix protein fibronectin (FN) acts synergistically with immobilized anti-CD3 antibody to promote proliferation of total human peripheral blood lymphocytes (HPBL) in the absence of exogenous IL-2. Proliferation was inhibited by both the alpha 5 beta 1 and alpha 4 beta 1 recognition peptides. ARG-GLY-ASP (RGD), and GLU-ILE-LEU-ASP-VAL-PRO-SER-THR (EILDVPST), respectively. Expression of CD25 (IL-2 receptor) was significantly higher on cells cultured on anti-CD3 and FN, indicative of T-cell activation. Additionally, cells cultured on immobilized anti-CD3 and FN for 3 days showed increased adhesion to FN and increased forward light scatter/side scatter profile. Synthesis of both IL-1 and to a lesser extent IL-2 was elevated in supernatants from cultures containing both anti-CD3 and FN. These data are consistent with published reports which demonstrate that ECM proteins can act as costimulants of lymphocyte proliferation. Finally, our results show that cells cultured on anti-CD3 antibody and FN have an activated phenotype and that cytokines may be involved in this process. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: We have shown previously that fibronectin (FN) together with megakaryocyte (Mk) growth and development factor (MGDF) enhanced generation of Mk progenitors determined by colony-forming unit (CFU)-Mk assay. MGDF can activate beta(1)-integrins on progenitor cells and increase binding to FN. We studied the role of beta(1)-integrin-tetraspanin complexes by which FN may enhance megakaryopoiesis. METHODS: Cord blood CD34(+) cells were cultured for up to 8 days in serum-free medium containing IL-3, IL-6 and SCF with or without MGDF in the presence or absence of FN. Immunofluorescence flow cytometry was used to monitor changes in beta(1)-integrin-tetraspanin complexes. CFU-Mk assay was used to assess Mk commitment. RESULTS: The cocktail of cytokines irrespective of the presence of MGDF altered the percentage expression of beta(1)-integrins CD49d and CD49e on CD34(+) cells. CD49d expression fell initially (98% to 15%) and then rose to 75%, whereas CD49e progressively increased over the 8 days of culture, from 5.4% to 22%. However, with the addition of FN, similar changes in the expression of beta(1)-integrins were observed but the expression was maintained at a higher level. MGDF and FN increased expression of tetraspanin molecules, CD63 and CD151, as well as their co-expression with the beta(1)-integrins on both the CD34(+) and CD34(-) cells (e.g. and increase from 0% to 80% co-expression of CD49d and CD151 on CD34(+)). Blocking of beta(1)-integrins or the tetraspanin CD151 with the respective MAb reduced Mk progenitor generation in a stromal cell model. DISCUSSION: FN enhanced Mk progenitor generation through modulation of beta(1)-integrin-tetraspanin complexes, such as CD151/CD49d. 相似文献

Crk-associated substrate (Cas) lymphocyte-type (Cas-L) is a 105-kDa cytoplasmic protein consisting of Src homology-3 domain and multiple YXXP motifs (substrate domain). Our previous studies showed that Cas-L is tyrosine-phosphorylated following the ligation of TCR and beta 1 integrins in T lymphocytes. Here we show that Cas-L is involved in T cell motility following the ligation of TCR and beta 1 integrin. Peripheral T lymphocytes showed a marked increase of migration on fibronectin (FN) after the ligation of TCR. In contrast, the migrating Jurkat cells, in which Cas-L was marginally expressed, were less than one-tenth in number on the same condition. Transfection of wild-type Cas-L into Jurkat cells resulted in restoring CD3 plus FN-induced cell migration. Furthermore, following the ligation of beta 1 integrin alone, the Cas-L transfectants significantly migrated better than the vector control. Mutational analysis of Cas-L revealed that the substrate domain is required for both FN- and CD3-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Cas-L and cell migration caused by FN alone and CD3 plus FN. In contrast, the Src homology-3 domain is required only for the FN-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Cas-L and cell migration, but not for CD3-induced tyrosine phosphorylation or CD3 plus FN-induced cell migration. These data strongly suggest that Cas-L is a key molecule in T cell migration induced by the ligation of CD3 and beta 1 integrins and that tyrosine phosphorylation of Cas-L is essential for T cell migration. 相似文献

Mice with tail kinks and deformities in their lower extremities were observed in a litter of C.D2-Qa-2+N6F15 mice. A mutant line that exhibits this phenotype in 100% of its offspring was established by subsequent breeding. The abnormalities resembled to some degree those found in a human syndrome termed chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO). Accordingly, we name the new mutation chronic multifocal osteomyelitis (cmo). Breeding analysis showed that the defect was determined by a single autosomal recessive gene. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of progeny from a backcross between Mus musculus domesticus (CLA) and C.D2-Qa-(2+)-cmo/cmo indicated that the cmo gene resides on mouse Chromosome 18. 相似文献

As part of ongoing studies regarding the genetic basis of quantitative variation in phenotype, we have determined the chromosomal locations of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) affecting fruit size, soluble solids concentration, and pH, in a cross between the domestic tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) and a closely-related wild species, L. cheesmanii. Using a RFLP map of the tomato genome, we compared the inheritance patterns of polymorphisms in 350 F2 individuals with phenotypes scored in three different ways: (1) from the F2 progeny themselves, grown near Davis, California; (2) from F3 families obtained by selfing each F2 individual, grown near Gilroy, California (F3-CA); and (3) from equivalent F3 families grown near Rehovot, Israel (F3-IS). Maximum likelihood methods were used to estimate the approximate chromosomal locations, phenotypic effects (both additive effects and dominance deviations), and gene action of QTLs underlying phenotypic variation in each of these three environments. A total of 29 putative QTLs were detected in the three environments. These QTLs were distributed over 11 of the 12 chromosomes, accounted for 4.7-42.0% of the phenotypic variance in a trait, and showed different types of gene action. Among these 29 QTLs, 4 were detected in all three environments, 10 in two environments, and 15 in only a single environment. The two California environments were most similar, sharing 11/25 (44%) QTLs, while the Israel environment was quite different, sharing 7/20 (35%) and 5/26 (19%) QTLs with the respective California environments. One major goal of QTL mapping is to predict, with maximum accuracy, which individuals will produce progeny showing particular phenotypes. Traditionally, the phenotype of an individual alone has been used to predict the phenotype of its progeny. Our results suggested that, for a trait with low heritability (soluble solids), the phenotype of F3 progeny could be predicted more accurately from the genotype of the F2 parent at QTLs than from the phenotype of the F2 individual. For a trait with intermediate heritability (fruit pH), QTL genotype and observed phenotype were about equally effective at predicting progeny phenotype. For a trait with high heritability (mass per fruit), knowing the QTL genotype of an individual added little if any predictive value, to simply knowing the phenotype. The QTLs mapped in the L. esculentum X L. cheesmanii F2 appear to be at similar locations to many of those mapped in a previous cross with a different wild tomato (L. chmielewskii).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Tetraspanin CD9 regulates cell motility and other adhesive processes in a variety of tissue types. Using transfected Chinese Hamster Ovary cells as our model system, we examined the cellular pathways critical for CD9 promoted cell migration. alpha 5 beta 1 integrin was directly involved as CD9 enhanced migration was abolished by the alpha 5 beta 1 blocking antibody PB1. Furthermore, the ligand mimetic peptide RGDS, significantly upregulated the expression of a beta1 ligand induced binding site (LIBS) demonstrating for the first time that CD9 expression potentiates beta1 integrin high affinity conformation states. CD9 promoted cell motility was significantly blocked by phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI-3K) inhibitors, wortmannin and LY294002, whereas inhibitors targeting protein kinase C or mitogen-activated protein kinase had no effect. PI-3K dominant/negative cDNA transfections confirmed that PI-3K was an essential component. CD9 enhanced the phosphorylation of the PI-3K substrate, Akt, in response to cell adhesion on FN. CD9 expression also upregulated p130Cas phosphorylation and total protein levels; however, p130Cas siRNA knockdown did not alter the motile phenotype. CD9 enhanced migration was also unaffected by serum deprivation suggesting that growth factors were not critical. Our studies demonstrate that CD9 upregulates beta1 LIBS, and in concert with alpha 5 beta 1, enhances cell motility to FN via a PI-3K dependent mechanism. 相似文献

Waardenburg syndrome type I (WS1; MIM 19350) is caused by a pleiotropic, autosomal dominant mutation with variable penetrance and expressivity. Of individuals with this mutation, 20%-25% are hearing impaired. A multilocus linkage analysis of RFLP data from a single WS1 family with 11 affected individuals indicates that the WS1 mutation in this family is linked to the following four marker loci located on the long arm of chromosome 2: ALPP (alkaline phosphatase, placental), FN1 (fibronectin 1), D2S3 (a unique-copy DNA segment), and COL6A3 (collagen VI, alpha 3). For the RFLP marker loci, a multilocus linkage analysis using MLINK produced a peak lod (Z) of 3.23 for the following linkage relationships and recombination fractions (theta i): (ALPP----.000----FN1)----.122----D2S3----.267----CO L6A3. A similar analysis produced a Z of 6.67 for the following linkage relationships and theta i values among the markers and WS1: (FN1----.000----WS1----.000----ALPP)----.123----D2S 3----.246----COL6A3. The data confirm the conclusion of Foy et al. that at least some WS1 mutations map to chromosome 2q. 相似文献

Leukemic cells of a 19 year old patient with prolymphocytic leukemia of T-cell type (T-PLL) were characterized by surface markers and immunologic functions. Phenotypic analysis using a large panel of monoclonal antibodies corresponding to the clusters (CD) of differentiation antigens established on the Leukocyte Typing Workshops I and II revealed a unique T-cell phenotype not yet reported in the literature: CD1 (T6)-, CD2 (T11)+, CD3 (T3)+, CD4 (T4)-, CD5 (T1)-, CD6 (T411)+, CD7 (Leu9)+, CD8 (T811)-, CD10 (J5)-, CD11 (M22)+, CD12 (M67)-, CD13 (My7)-, CD14 (Mo2)-, CD16 (Vep13, 3G8, Leu11)+, CD18 (MHM23)+, CD19 (B4)-, CD20 (B1)-, CD25 (TAC)-, MHC-class II (HLA-DR, HLA-DQ)-, NKH1A+, Leu7-. Despite the expression of surface structures associated with natural killer (NK) function (CD16, CD18, NKH 1 A) the T-PLL cells were inactive in NK assays in vitro. Low in vitro ADCC activity was detectable. This unusual T-PLL phenotype might help to identify a new distinct T-cell differentiation stage. 相似文献

Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) and seed longevity (SL) are complex biological processes of major importance for agricultural production. In the present study, a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population derived from a cross between the German winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars History and Rubens was used to identify genetic factors controlling these two physiological seed traits. A falling number (FN) test was employed to evaluate PHS, while SL was measured using a germination test (and the speed of germination) after controlled deterioration. FN of the population was assessed in four environments; SL traits were measured in one environment. Four major quantitative trait loci (QTL) for FN were detected on chromosomes 4D, 5A, 5D, and 7B, whereas for SL traits, a major QTL was found on chromosome 1A. The FN QTL on chromosome 4D that coincided with the position of the dwarfing gene Rht-D1b only had effects in environments that were free of PHS. The remaining three QTL for FN were mostly pronounced under conditions conducive to PHS. The QTL on the long arm of chromosome 7B corresponded to the major gene locus controlling late maturity α-amylase (LMA) in wheat. The severity of the LMA phenotype became truly apparent under sprouting conditions. The position on the long arm of chromosome 1A of the QTL for SL points to a new QTL for this important regenerative seed trait. 相似文献
