1. 14C-Labelled methyl 2,6-di-O-pivaloyl-alpha-D-glucopyranoside (1) was used as a novel substrate for esterases from mouse serum and liver. 2. Stepwise de-esterification of the diester substrate 1 was achieved, and data on time-course experiments are reported. 3. Kinetic studies were undertaken to compare deacylation rates for the enzymatic de-esterification of the diester substrate 1 using both, mice sera and liver microsomal fractions. 4. Serum and liver esterase activities were studied in mice treated with an immunostimulating agent, peptidoglycan monomer (PGM), and a comparison made with esterases from untreated mice.  相似文献

The polypeptide pattern of red blood cell (RBC) membranes from cow, sheep, horse, rabbit, guinea pig, rat, mouse, analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, was compared to human RBC counterpart. Some qualitative and quantitative differences were noted. Among the high molecular weight components the bands 2.1- 2.3 appeared slightly decreased in rabbit and rat and increased in sheep RBC membranes. Band 3 appeared to have a higher molecular weight in the cow, guinea pig and mouse RBCs, and a lower molecular weight in the sheep RBCs. Band 4.1 from the RBC membranes of cow, sheep, rabbit and guinea pig was splitted into two sub-bands, while band 4.2 overlapped with band 4.1 in horse and guinea pig RBC membranes. There are marked differences in the number and position of bands in the 4.5 region, while band 4.9 is present in higher amounts in horse, rabbit and guinea pig RBC membranes. Band 6 (glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase) was undetectable in horse, rat and mouse RBC membranes and was decreased in sheep, rabbit and guinea pig. There are also major differences in the region of band 7 and below ("post-7"). Band 8 was undetectable in horse, cow and guinea pig, and was in higher amounts in rat. A band corresponding to a molecular weight of about 22 kD in the "post-8" region was present only in guinea pig RBC membranes.  相似文献

1. Binding of 3H-cortisol by serum proteins by means of competitive adsorption was relatively high by serum of the gerbil, human, rabbit, sheep, tree shrew, hamster, rhesus monkey and horse. 2. A somewhat lower binding was observed by serum proteins of the baboon, cattle, dog, rat and cat. 3. Serum taken from either the mouse, guinea pig or pig gave very flat binding curves, specific binding not exceeding 5% of added 3H-cortisol. 4. It is concluded that the measurement of protein-binding of 3H-cortisol by means of competitive adsorption is a reliable method for serum of most eutherian species but is unsuited if serum of the mouse, guinea pig or pig is used.  相似文献

Heterologous radioimmunoassays for a semiquantitative analysis of alpha 1-microglobulin were developed, exploiting the binding between polyclonal rabbit or goat antisera against human, guinea pig, or rat alpha 1-microglobulin and 125I-labeled human, guinea pig, or rat alpha 1-microglobulin. Homologues of this protein were detected in human, guinea pig, Rhesus monkey, rat, mouse, rabbit, goat, horse, and cow serum by inhibition of a set of heterologous radioimmunoassays. Serum proteins were separated by gel chromatography, and fractions were pooled, concentrated, and radiolabeled with 125I. By immunoprecipitation of the radioiodinated serum pools with heterologous anti-alpha 1-microglobulin-sera, and separating the precipitates by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, analogues of alpha 1-microglobulin were isolated from serum of man, guinea pig, Rhesus monkey, rat, mouse, horse, and chicken. The apparent molecular weight of alpha 1-microglobulin was 31,000-32,000 in human and monkey serum and 24,000-26,000 in guinea pig, rat, mouse, horse, and chicken serum. The possibility of an addition of a 5,000-8,000-Da peptide in primate alpha 1-microglobulin is discussed.  相似文献

The antigenic difference between myeloperoxidases of human, rabbit, guinea pig, horse, dog, sheep and mouse leucocytes and horse radish peroxidase was investigated. By counterimmunoelectrophoresis with antiserum specific for human and mouse myeloperoxidase and horse radish peroxidase, the enzyme catalysing peroxidase reaction in leucocytes from the above sources was shown to possess species specificity and different antigenic composition.  相似文献

1. Glycopeptides in the stomachs of eleven mammalian species, including human, rabbit, horse, cow, pig, goat, sheep, dog, cat, guinea pig and rat were assayed by determining the carbohydrate content of materials which remained after proteolysis. 2. The glycopeptide content was higher in the mucosa than in the muscular layer including serosa, especially in the porcine stomach and the fourth stomachs of the ruminants than in the stomachs of any other animals. 3. The glycopeptide, which was stained with both alcian blue and PAS, was absent or sparingly present in the mucosae of the human, rabbit, horse stomachs and in the mucosae of the first to third stomachs of the cow, goat and sheep, whereas in the mucosae of the pig, dog, cat, guinea pig and rat stomachs and in the mucosae of the fourth stomachs of the cow, goat and sheep, it was found in noticeable extents.  相似文献

1. Aldehyde dehydrogenase activity was determined in whole blood samples from 17 selected vertebrates of 5 classes, using 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetaldehyde (the aldehyde derived from dopamine) as substrate. 2. Aldehyde dehydrogenase activity in blood was widely but unevenly distributed among the species studied. 3. Mean aldehyde dehydrogenase activities in the range of 40-140 nmol/min.ml blood (measured at 37 degrees C, pH 8.8) were found in blood from man, monkey, rabbit, guinea pig and mouse (C57BL and NMRI strains), with the highest activity in rabbit blood. 4. Much lower aldehyde dehydrogenase activities (0.5-7.5 nmol/min.ml blood) were found in blood from Sprague-Dawley and Wistar rat, dog, cat, horse, pig, chicken, caiman, frog and rainbow trout, whereas the activities in blood from DBA mouse, cow, sheep and crucian carp were close to the detection limit.  相似文献

1. The effect of chloride on serum angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) activity was characterized in eight mammalian species: dog, guinea pig, hamster, human, mouse, rabbit, rat, and sheep.2. Optimum chloride concentrations varied from 300 mM for rabbit to 1700 mM for hamster.3. The increments with these optimum concentrations with respect to 100 mM chloride concentration were from 1.4-fold in rabbit to 7.9-fold in hamster and dog.4. There was no correlation between serum chloride concentration or serum ACE activity and optimum chloride concentration.5. Serum ACE increased only in humans with diamide pretreatment suggesting the presence of endogenous inhibitors.  相似文献

Haemolysin patterns of 175 strains of different Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica serovars isolated from different animal sources and places were determined using 11 different blood agar media made with either non-washed horse/sheep erythrocytes or with washed erythrocytes of cattle, sheep, horse, goat, rabbit, guinea pig, and human A, O and B blood groups. Study on 47 strains belonging to 10 serovars of Salmonella from buffalo meat (buffen), 42 strains of 11 serovars from goat meat (chevon): 16 strains of Salmonella enterica serovar Paratyphi B and 25 of S. enterica serovar Paratyphi B var Java from fish, meat, meat products and clinical cases; 45 isolates of S. Abortusequi from aborted mares (18), fetal contents (21), aborted donkey mares (2) and 4 reference strains, revealed that all host restricted Salmonella namely, S. enterica serovar Gallinarum, S. enterica serovar Anatum, S. enterica serovar Abortusequi and S. enterica serovar Paratyphi B could be divided into different haemolysin types based on their inability to produce haemolysis on one or more types of blood agar, while strains of all zoonotic Salmonella serovars induced haemolysis on all the 9 types of blood agar made of washed erythrocytes. None of 175 Salmonella could produce hemolytic colonies on blood agar made of non-washed horse/ sheep erythrocytes. Haemolysin type I (lysing all types of washed erythrocytes) was the commonest one among all serovars except S. Abortusequi, none of which lysed horse erythrocytes. Salmonella enterica serovar Abortusequi having hemolytic activity against sheep erythrocytes were more invasive but had lesser ability to survive in sheep mononuclear cells than non-hemolytic strains. Multiplicity of haemolysins appeared significant epidemiological tool.  相似文献

1. A comparison of the chemical and physical properties of the iron transport protein transferrin, purified from the following seventeen animal sera, is reported; human, rhesus monkey, dog, cat, rabbit, guinea pig, mouse, rat, cow, sheep, goat, horse, pig, turkey, duck, turtle and rattlesnake. 2. Similarities and differences in molecular weight, isoelectric point, antibody specificity, effect of pH on iron release, number of sialic acid residues, amino acid composition and the N-terminal amino acid residue, are discussed. 3. The results are compared with the commonly accepted evolutionary origins of the 17 species.  相似文献

It was found that haptoglobins of camel, cattle, horse, pig, rat, guinea pig and man form upon immunoelectrophoresis precipitation arcs with antibodies against polymeric sheep haptoglobin C, corresponding to alpha 2-globulins. The immunocrossreactivity of haptoglobins of man and various animal species towards antibody to sheep haptoglobin (100, 88.0, 75.2, 72.1, 56.3, 51.0, 41.3 and 28.0% for haptoglobin of sheep, camel, pig, cattle, man, rat, guinea pig and horse, respectively) was determined. The intensity of crossreactions between sheep haptoglobin and the proteins under study towards antibody to haptoglobin C reflects the similarity of their primary structure and, consequently, the immune homology of their molecules. Using quantitative titration, the antigenic valency values for human (6), sheep (5), cattle (4) and horse (3) haptoglobins were determined.  相似文献

Undiluted blood serum of various species was used to culture two-celled rabbit ova for 24 hours. It was found that there is an ovocidal factor present in the serum of man, sheep, cattle, goat, and fowl. The factor is lethal rather than inhibitory; exposure to it for 10 minutes will cause the death of the ova. This factor is unstable, thermolabile (destroyed at 55 degrees C. in 30 minutes), and of large molecular size. The strength or concentration of this factor varies according to the origin of the serum, increasing in the order man, sheep, cattle, goat, fowl. The blood serum of rabbit, horse, dog, guinea pig, rat, and pig contains no ovocidal factor against rabbit ova. The ovocidal factor differs from the spermicidal factor, which is present in all the sera of the different species studied with rabbit spermatozoa. Immunization of the guinea pig against rabbit ova is possible. Normal development of young rabbits was obtained by transplantation of ova cultured in the heated or normal serum of other species after 24 hours.  相似文献

Immunoglobulins (IgG) are soluble serum glycoproteins in which the oligosaccharides play significant roles in the bioactivity and pharmacokinetics. Recombinant immuno-globulins (rIgG) produced in different host cells by recombinant DNA technology are becoming major therapeutic agents to treat life threatening diseases such as cancer. Since glycosylation is cell type specific, rIgGs produced in different host cells contain different patterns of oligosaccharides which could affect the biological functions. In order to determine the extent of this variation N-linked oligosaccharide structures present in the IgGs of different animal species were characterized. IgGs of human, rhesus, dog, cow, guinea pig, sheep, goat, horse, rat, mouse, rabbit, cat, and chicken were treated with peptide-N-glycosidase-F (PNGase F) and the oligosaccharides analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) for neutral and acidic oligosaccharides, in positive and negative ion modes, respectively. The data show that for neutral oligosaccharides, the proportions of terminal Gal, core Fuc and/or bisecting GlcNAc containing oligosaccharides vary from species to species; for sialylated oligosaccharides in the negative mode MALDI-TOF-MS show that human and chicken IgG contain oligosaccharides with N-acetylneuraminic acid (NANA), whereas rhesus, cow, sheep, goat, horse, and mouse IgGs contain oligosaccharides with N-glycolylneuraminic acid (NGNA). In contrast, IgGs from dog, guinea pig, rat, and rabbit contain both NANA and NGNA. Further, the PNGase F released oligosaccharides were derivatized with 9-aminopyrene 1,4,6-trisulfonic acid (APTS) and analyzed by capillary electrophoresis with laser induced fluorescence detection (CE-LIF). The CE-LIF results indicate that the proportion of the two isomers of monogalactosylated, biantennary, complex oligosaccharides vary significantly, suggesting that the branch specificity of beta1, 4-galactosyltransferase might be different in different species. These results show that the glycosylation of IgGs is species-specific, and reveal the necessity for appropriate cell line selection to express rIgGs for human therapy. The results of this study are useful for people working in the transgenic area.  相似文献

The vibriocidal assay using guinea pig complement is widely used for the evaluation of immune responses to cholera vaccines in human clinical trials. However, it is unclear why guinea pig complement has been used over human complement in the measurement of vibriocidal activity of human sera and there have not been comparison studies for the use of guinea pig complement over those from other species. Therefore, we comparatively investigated the effects of complements derived from human, guinea pig, rabbit, and sheep on vibriocidal activity. Complements from guinea pig, rabbit, and human showed concentration-dependent vibriocidal activity in the presence of quality control serum antibodies. Of these complements, guinea pig complement was the most sensitive and effective over a wide concentration range. When the vibriocidal activity of complements was measured in the absence of serum antibodies, human, sheep, and guinea pig complements showed vibriocidal activity up to 40-fold, 20-fold, and 1-fold dilution, respectively. For human pre- and post-vaccination sera, the most potent vibriocidal activity was observed when guinea pig complement was used. In addition, the highest fold-increases between pre- and post- vaccinated sera were obtained with guinea pig complement. Furthermore, human complement contained a higher amount of V. cholerae- and its lipopolysaccharide-specific antibodies than guinea pig complement. Collectively, these results suggest that guinea pig complements are suitable for vibriocidal assays due to their high sensitivity and effectiveness to human sera.  相似文献

Untreated rabbit erythrocytes adhere to thymus-dependent areas of guinea pig lymphatic tissues as shown with frozen sections. The adherence reaction is temperature dependent. Optimal results were obtained by incubation of the tissue section with the erythrocytes at temperatures between 0 ° and 4 °C. At 37 °C no adherence of erythrocytes was observed. Out of other erythrocytes tested (human, sheep, chicken, rat, mouse) only rat and mouse cells showed weak adherence to guinea pig thymus sections.  相似文献

Corticosteroid side-chain (CSC) isomerase catalyzes ketol-aldol interconversion of the corticosteroid side chain. The enzyme was present in the blood of mouse, rat, guinea pig, chicken, pig, horse, sheep, cow, and human. The patterns of substrate specificity, measuring 3H-1H exchange of 21-tritiated forms of 11-deoxycorticosterone, corticosterone, and cortisol, were species specific. Based on enzyme activity and immunostaining of mouse blood fractions, red blood cells had the most isomerase activity, plasma had less, and white blood cells had low but highly variable levels of enzyme. Purified mouse liver CSC isomerase was found to be adsorbed by red blood cells. The results suggest that circulating CSC isomerase is derived in part from tissue sources and is in part an intrinsic blood enzyme.  相似文献

Rabbit antiserum has been prepared against the prostaglandin endoperoxide-forming cyclooxygenase (EC 1.14.99.1) purified from sheep vesicular glands. Ouchterlony double diffusion and immunoelectrophoretic analyses indicate that the anti-cyclooxygenase serum is monospecific for the enzyme. The anti-cyclooxygenase serum reacts with both active and inactivated forms of the sheep vesicular gland (SVG) cyclooxygenase. Furthermore, the immune serum precipitates solubilized microsomal cyclooxygenases from each of six other tissues examined, including bovine seminal vesicle, rabbit kidney medulla, guinea pig lung, dog spleen, sheep uterus, and human platelets. Anti-SVG cyclooxygenase serum was used in combination with fluorescein isothiocyanate )FITC)-labeled goat anti-rabbit IgG to detect cyclooxygenases in cryostat sections from rat, rabbit and guinea pig kidneys by immunofluorescence. Highly prominent fluorescence was associated only with the epithelial cells lining the collecting ducts in rabbit and guinea pig kidneys, and except for the nucleus, was uniformly distributed within the interior of these cells. In rat kidney, fluorescence was detected not only in collecting tubules but also in the interstitial cells of the renal papilla. Our results are consistent with the emerging hypothesis that PGE2 produced intrarenally plays a physiological role in natriuresis.  相似文献

1. Flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO) in pulmonary and hepatic microsomes from sheep was analyzed by western blotting by probing with antibodies raised against FMO purified from rabbit lung and pig liver. 2. Pulmonary microsomes from sheep contain a single major protein which cross-reacts with the antibody to rabbit lung FMO, but no band can be observed when probed with the antibody to the pig liver enzyme. Likewise, sheep liver microsomes contain a protein which cross-reacts with the antibody to pig liver FMO, but no significant staining is observed following incubation with antibody to the lung enzyme. 3. Sheep pulmonary and hepatic microsomal FMO also display a difference in activity toward chlorpromazine and n-dodecylamine. 4. Preliminary evidence suggests that sheep FMO may be induced (liver) or repressed (lung) during pregnancy. 5. Sheep are similar to rodents (rat, mouse, guinea pig, hamster and rabbit) in having distinct forms of pulmonary and hepatic FMO. The immunochemical and catalytic difference between sheep liver and lung FMO is similar to that of rabbit.  相似文献

The common alpha-subunit of glycoprotein hormones (CGalpha) is a core protein shared by follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). In order to obtain a molecular basis for an efficient superovulation technique applicable to a wide range of animal species and to discuss the phylogenetic aspect based on molecules related to the reproductive system, we determined cDNA sequences of CGalpha in seven laboratory animals: the guinea pig, Mongolian gerbil, golden hamster, mastomys, Japanese field vole, the JF1 strain of Mus musculus molossinus, and rabbit. Comparison of the inferred CGalpha amino acid sequences of these animals and other mammals (human, mouse, rat, cow, pig, and sheep) showed that the signal peptides and the first ten residues at the N-terminus of the apoprotein were variable, while the rest of the apoproteins were highly conserved. In particular, all rodents had a leucine residue at the apoprotein N-terminus, except the guinea pig, which had a phenylalanine residue, as in the cow, pig, sheep, and rabbit. Phylogenetic trees constructed from amino acid sequences suggest a closer relationship between the guinea pig and artiodactyls than to rodents, confirming the taxonomic peculiarity of the guinea pig.  相似文献
