Antibodies to murine leukemia virus gp70 and p15(E) in sera of BALB/c mice immunized with syngeneic chemically induced sarcomas 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The sera of BALB/c mice immunized with syngeneic methylcholanthrene-induced sarcomas commonly contain antibodies that react with the immunizing tumor line and also with other chemically induced sarcomas. Three lines of evidence suggest that the cross-reactive antibodies are directed against antigenic determinants of gp70 and p15(E), envelope proteins of endogenous murine leukemia virus (MuLV). 1) The antibodies bind only to sarcomas expressing MuLV antigens, 2) they are removed by absorption with purified MuLV antigens, and 3) they precipitate proteins identified as gp70 and p15(E) from 125I-labeled sarcoma cell lysates. 相似文献

Immune response of the mouse to the major core protein (p30) of ecotropic leukemia viruses. 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Sera from normal C57BL/6 mice contained low titers of antibodies against proteins of MuLV. Sera from C57BL/6 mice that were immunized with allogeneic leukemia cells sometimes contained high-titered antibodies against the p15 protein of MuLV; these antibodies detected group-specific antigenic determinants of the p15 protein, since reactions were observed with the p15 proteins of both AKR and Moloney viruses. In contrast, antisera prepared in C57BL/6 mice against the AKR leukemia K36 reacted strongly with the p30 protein of MuLV, as well as with p15. Antibodies in the C57BL/6 anti-AKR K36 sera detected group-specific antigenic determinants of the p30 protein; reactions were observed with the C57BL/6 anti-AKR K36 serum and the p30 proteins of both AKR and Moloney viruses. It was concluded that mice do have the capacity to respond immunologically to antigenic determinants of the MuLV p30 protein, although in most circumstances this is not observed. 相似文献

FMR antigens are found on the surface of cells infected with Friend, Moloney, and Rauscher murine leukemia viruses (MuLV). These antigens are serologically distinct from the G cell surface antigens that are found on cells infected with endogenous MuLV (AKR and Gross virus). Cell surface antigens of both virus groups are immunogenic in mice, and immunization with appropriate virus-infected cells leads to the production of cytotoxic antisera. The cytotoxic activity of FMR antisera can be absorbed by disrupted preparations of Rauscher MuLV, but not by AKR MuLV. FMR antisera precipitate the viral envelope proteins gp70, pl5(E), and p12(E) from detergent-disrupted preparations of [3H]leucine-labeled MuLV. The reaction of these antisera with p15(E) and p12(E) proteins is directed against group-specific antigens and can be absorbed with AKR MuLV; in contrast, the reaction of these antisera with gp70 is directed against type-specific antigens and is absorbed only by viruses of the FMR group. In immune precipitation assays with detergent-disrupted 125I surface-labeled cells, FMR antisera react only with type-specific antigens of the viral envelpe protein. On the basis of these findings we conclude that the FMR cell surface antigen is a determinant on the MuLV env gene product. 相似文献

Molecular basis of a unique tumor antigen of radiation leukemia virus-induced leukemia B6RV2: its relation to MuLV gp70 of xenotropic class 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Hybridomas secreting monoclonal antibodies that reacted with the B6 radiation leukemia virus (RadLV)-induced leukemia B6RV2 were produced by fusion of BALB/c NS-1 myeloma cells with spleen cells from (BALB/c X B6)F1 mice immunized with B6RV2. By direct and absorption analyses with 28 B6 and BALB/c leukemias, the monoclonal antibodies NU7-4 and NU7-99 were shown to react only with B6RV2, indicating that they recognized an individually distinct antigen on B6RV2 that was identified previously with conventional (BALB/c X B6)F1 anti-B6RV2 serum. Another monoclonal antibody, NU1-132, showed relatively restricted reactivity with B6 RadLV leukemias. These three monoclonal antibodies all precipitated material of approximately 80,000 daltons, which is the same size as that precipitated by anti-xenotropic MuLV gp70 serum. Sequential immunoprecipitation analysis revealed that the molecules precipitated by NU7-4 were not removed by pretreatment of NU7-99 or NU1-132 and that the molecules precipitated by NU7-99 were not removed by NU7-4 or NU1-132. The molecules precipitated by NU1-132 were partially removed by pretreatment with NU7-4, but not with NU7-99. The molecules precipitated by these three monoclonal antibodies were removed by pretreatment with anti-xenotropic gp70. These results suggested heterogeneity of the xenotropic MuLV gp70-related molecules expressed on B6RV2 and a possible relation between serologically defined unique tumor antigens and gp70-related molecules. 相似文献

The autologous immune response of AKR/J mice to the structural proteins of murine leukemia virus (MuLV) was examined. Immunoglobulins from the renal glomeruli were chemically eluted, separated from antigens, recovered, and tested for immunological reactivity against MuLV structural proteins. Analyzing immune precipitates obtained after mixing radiolabeled Tween-disrupted MuLV preparations with eluates from AKR/J mice on sodium dodecyl sulfategel electrophoresis, we found evidence of antibodies to the major classes of MuLV structural components: gp70, gp45, p30, and one or more proteins in the 10,000- to 15,000-dalton class. Using rate zonal centrifugation we confirmed that the eluates from AKR/J glomeruli contained antibody(s) that bound specifically to p30. These results indicate that AKR/J mice spontaneously mount immune responses against the major oncornavirus polypeptide antigens. 相似文献

Structures of somatically acquired murine leukemia virus (MuLV) genomes present in the DNA of a large panel of MuLV-induced C57BL and BALB/c B and non-T/non-B cell lymphomas were compared with those present in MuLV-induced T-cell lymphomas induced in the same low-"spontaneous"-lymphoma-incidence mice. Analyses were performed with probes specific for the gp70, p15E, and U3-long terminal repeat (LTR) regions of ecotropic AKV MuLV and a mink cell focus-forming virus (MCF)-LTR probe annealing with U3-LTR sequences of a unique endogenous xenotropic MuLV, which also hybridizes with U3-LTR sequences of a substantial portion of somatically acquired MCF genomes in spontaneous AKR thymomas. The DNAs of both T- and B-cell tumors induced by neonatal inoculation with the highly oncogenic C57BL-derived MCF 1233 virus predominantly contain integrated MCF proviruses. In contrast, the DNAs of more slowly developing B and non-T/non-B cell lymphomas induced by poorly oncogenic ecotropic or MCF C57BL MuLV isolates mostly contain somatically acquired ecotropic MuLV genomes. Approximately 50% of the spontaneous C57BL lymphoma DNAs contain somatically acquired MuLV genomes. None of the integrated MuLV proviruses annealed with the MCF-LTR probe, which indicates a clear difference in LTR structure with a substantial portion of the somatically acquired MuLV genomes present in the DNA of spontaneous AKR thymomas. This study stresses a dominant role of MuLV with ecotropic gp70 and LTR sequences in the development of slowly arising MuLV-induced B and non-T/non-B cell lymphomas. 相似文献

A progressive neurodegenerative disease occurred following infection of mice with a temperature-sensitive (ts) isolate of Moloney (Mo) murine leukemia virus (MuLV), ts Mo BA-1 MuLV. This NB-tropic ecotropic MuLV, which was ts for a late function, induced a syndrome of tremor, weakness of the hind limbs, and spasticity following infection of several strains of laboratory neonatal mice, including NFS, C3H/He, CBA, SJL, and BALB/c. The latent period of 8 to 16 weeks was considerably longer than that observed for the acute paralytic diseases observed following neonatal infection with other ts Mo-MuLV, rat-passaged Friend MuLV, and some wild mouse ecotropic MuLVs. Spongiform pathology without inflammation and degeneration of neurons devoid of budding virions occurred in the cerebellar grey matter, brain stem, and upper spinal cord; but lower spinal cord anterior horn cells were less obviously affected than in other MuLV-associated neuroparalytic syndromes. ts Mo BA-1 MuLV differed from other ts Mo-MuLV mutants that are capable of inducing a neuroparalytic syndrome in that while infected nervous system tissue contained high levels of MuLV p30 and gp70, no evidence of precursor accumulation or abnormal processing of MuLV p30 or gp70 could be demonstrated. The localization of virus within the nervous system suggests that direct neuronal infection may not be the etiologic mechanism in this MuLV-induced neurodegenerative disease. 相似文献

Hybrid cell lines producing monoclonal antibodies against the C3H strain of mouse mammary tumor virus (C3H MMTV) were prepared by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells with the lymphocytes of BALB/c mice that were immunized with C3H MMTV. Approximately 10% of the hybrid cells initially plated after cell fusion produced immunoglobulins that reacted in antibody-binding assays with C3H MMTV; 40 of these cells were cloned, and 6 eventually yielded stable cell lines. High concentrations of monoclonal antibodies (5 to 20 mg/ml) were obtained from serum and ascites fluid of syngeneic mice inoculated with the hybrid cells. All of the monoclonal antibodies were directed against the envelope glycoprotein gp52. Three of the hybrid cell lines produced immunoglobulins of the immunoglobulin M subclass and three produced immunoglobulin G2a. The monoclonal antibodies showed limited charge heterogeneity in light and heavy chains when analyzed by high-resolution, two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Three serologically distinct specificities were observed when these ascites fluids were tested against different strains of MMTV. The antigenic determinants detected were the following: (i) a type-specific determinant unique to the C3H strain of MMTV; (ii) class-specific determinants shared between C3H and GR MMTVs; and (iii) a group-specific determinant found on C3H, GR, RIII, and the endogenous C3H (C3Hf) MMTVs. Because monoclonal antibodies recognize single antigenic determinants, these results demonstrate for the first time that the three patterns of antigenic reactivity for MMTV are related to individual determinants on the gp52 molecule and also clearly show that one strain of MMTV can be distinguished from other strains. 相似文献

The Rmcf gene restricts the replication of recombinant murine mink cell focus-inducing (MCF) viruses in cell cultures derived from mice carrying the resistance allele (Rmcfr) and may play a role in resistance to retrovirus-induced leukemias in vivo. We have characterized the endogenous gp70 expressed by Rmcfr and Rmcfs mice with a panel of type-specific monoclonal antibodies which discriminate xenotropic and MCF gp70. Embryo and tail skin cultures derived from Rmcfr mice (DBA/2 and CBA/N) expressed gp70 bearing a determinant unique to MCF viruses, whereas cultures from Rmcfs mice expressed either no detectable gp70 (NFS/N and IRW) or a gp70 serologically related to a subgroup of xenotropic viruses (C57BL/6, CBA/J, and A/WySn). Studies of progeny embryos derived from a (C57BL/6 X DBA/2) X C57BL/6 backcross established that the Rmcf resistance allele was linked to the expression of the MCF gp70 and that the gene encoding the xenotropic gp70 expressed by C57BL/6 Rmcfs mice was allelic with the MCF gp70 from Rmcfr mice. These data indicate that the Rmcf locus contains an endogenous gp70 gene having two allelic forms, one of which inhibits exogenous MCF infection in vitro by a mechanism of viral interference. 相似文献

Antisera to purified structural proteins of Rauscher murine leukemia virus, the major envelope glycoprotein, gp69/71, and the major internal protein, p30, were studied by immunofluorescence of viable and fixed virus-infected cells and by virus neutralization. Group-specific and type-specific determinants of gp69/71 were demonstrated by immunofluorescence and virus neutralization tests, indicating that these determinants are located in the cytoplasm and probably on the cell surface as well as on virus envelope. Antisera against p30 showed anti-group and anti-interspecies activities by immunofluorescence with no virus-neutralizing activity. Both antigenic determinants of gp69/71 were sensitive to guanidine-hydrochloride and to a lesser degree to ether treatment, whereas the group-specific determinants of p30 were relatively stable to these treatments. 相似文献

Anomalous reactions of mouse alloantisera with cultured tumor cells. II. Cytotoxicity is caused by antibodies to leukemia viruses. 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
Certain alloantisera prepared in mice against H-2 region membrane antigens were found to be unexpectedly cytotoxic for murine sarcoma and leukemia cells in culture. This anomalous cytotoxicity was shown to be the result of antibody in these alloantisera directed against the p15 and gp70 envelope proteins of Mu LV which were present on the surface of the tumor target cells. Sera from aged unimmunized mice of strains used for the preparation of alloantisera also contained antibodies against MuLV protein p15 and gp70 that were cytotoxic for sarcoma and leukemia cells, which indicates that these antibodies occurred naturally in mice. These results independently confirm earlier findings of the widespread occurrence in mouse serum of antibodies reactive with MuLV. The presence of antibody against MuLV in mouse serum which can cause cytotoxic reactions with tumor cells points to the fact that particular caution should be used during the typing of murine sarcomas or leukemias for cell surface antigens, since mouse antisera may yield cytotoxicity (or other serologic reactions) based on anti-MuLV specificities, rather than on anticipated antigens. 相似文献

Production of antibodies against Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii)-derived stress proteins, T. gondii HSP70 (T.g.HSP70) and T.g.HSP30/bagl, in C57BL/6 and BALB/c mice perorally infected with cysts of the avirulent Fukaya strain of T. gondii was analyzed. Production of anti-T.g.HSP70 IgG antibodies was transient, whereas production of anti-T.g.HSP30/bag1 IgG antibodies persisted after infection in both C57BL/6 and BALB/c mice. C57BL/6 mice, a susceptible strain, predominantly produced IgG antibodies specific for T.g.HSP70, whereas BALB/c mice, a resistant strain, predominantly produced IgG antibodies specific for T.g.HSP30/bag1, after T. gondii infection. Immunization with rT.g.HSP30/bag1 enhanced, whereas immunization with rT.g.HSP70 reduced host protective immunity against T. gondii infection with a cyst-forming avirulent strain, Fukaya, and a virulent strain, RH. 相似文献

Previous studies identified two glycoproteins of 86 (gp86) and 72 (gp72) kilodaltons and two nonglycosylated proteins of 70 (p70) and 19 (p19) kilodaltons which were specifically expressed in NIH cells transformed by DNA of the MCF-7 human mammary carcinoma cell line. Pulse-chase experiments and the use of tunicamycin to inhibit glycosylation suggested that gp86, gp72, and p19 were related as precursor products. Characteristics of the four transformation-associated proteins resembled those of murine leukemia virus (MuLV) proteins. Sera raised against disrupted MuLV immunoprecipitated the same four proteins in extracts of NIH(MCF-7) cells and MuLV-infected NIH 3T3 cells. In addition, a monoclonal antibody against MuLV gp70 immunoprecipitated proteins gp86 and gp72, whereas a monoclonal antibody against MuLV p15(E) immunoprecipitated gp86 and p19. These results indicate that proteins gp86, gp72, and p19 expressed in NIH(MCF-7) transformants correspond to MuLV envelope proteins gp80env, gp70, and p15(E), respectively. The transformation-associated protein p70 appears to be a non-envelope MuLV protein, most likely p65gag. Northern blot analysis confirmed that transformation of NIH cells by MCF-7 mammary carcinoma DNA led to the induction of an endogenous MuLV provirus. 相似文献

Cellular changes in the thymuses of preleukemic AKR mice: correlation with changes in the expression of murine leukemia viruses. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Thymus cells of preleukemic and leukemic AKR mice express on their cell surface elevated levels of antigens associated with the murine leukemia virus (MuLV) proteins gp70 and p30. The gp70 antigenicity is contained in a 70,000 dalton polypeptide that corresponds to the viral envelope protein, while the p30 antigenicity is contained in two polypeptides of 85,000 and 95,000 daltons that correspond to glycosylated forms of the polyprotein product of the gag gene.The expression of these viral coded proteins on the cell surface of thymocytes varies both quantitatively with the age of the mouse and qualitatively with the cellular populations that express these antigens. Four discrete stages in the leukemic pathway can be identified. First, low numbers of cells from the thymuses of young (2 month old) AKR mice express p30 (<0.25%) and gp70 (2–7%) antigens. Expression of gp70 antigen is restricted to large cells in the subcapsular region of the thymus. Second, thymuses of 6 month old AKR mice show a selective depletion of cortical thymocytes with a concomitant increase in the medullary region of the thymus. Thymus cells of these mice contain elevated numbers of cells that express an increased concentration of p30 and gp70 antigens. Viral antigens are found on the surface of all large cells of the subcapsular region of the thymus, and in variable numbers (2–85%) of small cells of the cortical and medullary regions. Third, the thymuses of some 8 month old AKR mice demonstrate selective hypertrophy of a single thymic lobe. The enlarged lobe contains a population of cells that are intermediate in size between the small cortical cells and leukemic blast cells. This new cell population expresses elevated levels of p30 and gp70 viral antigens. These cells, which are not leukemic (since transfer of high numbers of these cells to syngeneic hosts does not induce transplantable disease), may represent preleukemic thymocytes. Fourth, thymuses of mice with overt leukemia contain primarily leukemic blast cells. These cells express extremely high levels of viral antigens on their cell surfaces, and upon transfer of these cells to syngeneic hosts, they rapidly induce transplantable leukemias.The increased expression of viral antigens on the surface of thymus cells is correlated with an increased production of infectious ecotropic and xenotropic MuLV in the thymus. During aging, the percentage of cells producing ecotropic MuLV increases 10-fold, while the percentage of cells producing xenotropic MuLV increases 100 fold. 相似文献

Comparison of a number of murine leukemia virus clones by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed extensive protein polymorphism among B-tropic, but not N-tropic, isolates from BALB/c mice, particularly in migration of p30 proteins. A type-specific radioimmunoassay for p30 was developed which uniformly discriminated all B-tropic viruses from N-tropic viruses of BALB/c origin. N- and B-tropic viruses of C57BL/6 and AKR Fv-1b/b origin could also be distinguished by this assay. 相似文献

Normal sera from a variety of strains of inbred mice have precipitating antibodies to murine type C viruses that are detected by radioimmune precipitation assays. The results demonostrate that this humoral immune response is primarily directed against the AKR strain of murine leukemia virus (MuLV) proteins gp71, gp43, and p15(E). These sera also react with Friend- or Rauscher-MuLV in radioimmune precipitation assays. This reaction is not due to a separate immune response, but rather is primarily a consequence of the cross-reactivity of antibodies to the AKR strain of MuLV p15(E) with the p15(E) of these viruses. These data, using autogenous immune sera, emphasize the serological differences of the virion glycoproteins and the serological similarity of the p15(E) virion component of the viruses. Furthermore, based on the serological reactivities to the glycoproteins, the results suggest that the AKR strain of MuLV is endogenous to and expressed in mice, but that the Friend-Moloney-Rauscher virus group is not. 相似文献

The Gross passage A murine leukemia virus (MuLV) is a highly leukemogenic, ecotropic fibrotropic retrovirus. Its genome is similar to that of other nonleukemogenic ecotropic fibrotropic MuLVs but differs at the 3' end and in the long terminal repeat. To determine whether these modifications were related to its leukemogenic potential, we constructed a viral DNA recombinant in vitro with cloned infectious DNA from this highly leukemogenic Gross passage A MuLV and from a weakly leukemogenic endogenous BALB/c B-tropic MuLV. Infectious viruses, recovered after microinjection of murine cells with recombinant DNA, were injected into newborn mice. We show here that the Gross passage A 1.35-kilobase-pair KpnI fragment (harboring part of gp70, all of p15E, and the long terminal repeat) is sufficient to confer a high leukemogenic potential to this recombinant. 相似文献

The effects of protein modification on the antigenic determinants of p30 and gp70 of type C retroviruses were investigated by using solid-phase competition radioimmunoassays. Proteins were modified by reduction with 2-mercaptoethanol and subsequent carboxymethylation of SH groups with iodoacetamide or by amidination of α and ε amino groups with methylacetimidate. The type-specific determinants of gp70 were found to be conformational in nature, as they were destroyed by these chemical modifications. Group- and interspecies-specific determinants of gp70 antigens, however, appear to be sequential and do not involve residues susceptible to these chemical reagents. Conformation-dependent type-specific determinants of p30 were affected only by methylacetimidate. Group- and interspecies-specific determinants of p30 are similar to those of gp70 in that they also appear to be sequential antigenic sites. Therefore, the broadly reactive group- and interspecies-specific determinants of gp70 and p30 can be followed into small peptides. Accordingly, a cyanogen bromide cleavage fragment derived from the carboxyl-terminal one-third of Rauscher leukemia virus p30 was found to carry group-specific determinants but no detectable interspecies-specific determinants. In contrast, a peptide obtained by limited trypsin cleavage of p30, which was derived from the NH2-terminal region of the protein, contained at least one of the interspecies determinants shared with feline leukemia virus p27. 相似文献

The helper virus has been shown to play a critical role in the development of lymphoma induced by the defective Abelson murine leukemia virus (A-MuLV). Indeed, A-MuLV pseudotyped with some viruses, such as the Moloney MuLV, has been shown to be highly lymphogenic, whereas A-MuLV pseudotyped with other viruses, such as the BALB/c endogenous N-tropic MuLV, has been shown to be devoid of lymphogenic potential (N. Rosenberg and D. Baltimore, J. Exp. Med. 147:1126-1141, 1978; C. D. Scher, J. Exp. Med. 147: 1044-1053, 1978). To map the viral DNA sequences encoding the determinant of the lymphogenic potential of Moloney MuLV when complexed with A-MuLV, we constructed chimeric helper viral DNA genomes in vitro between parental cloned infectious viral DNA genomes from Moloney MuLV and from BALB/c endogenous N-tropic MuLV. Chimeric helper MuLVs, recovered after transfection of NIH 3T3 cells were used to rescue A-MuLV, and the pseudotypes were inoculated into newborn NIH Swiss, CD-1, and SWR/J mice to test their lymphogenic potential. We found that a 0.44-kilobase-pair PstI-KpnI long terminal repeat-containing fragment from the Moloney MuLV was sufficient to confer some, but not complete, lymphogenic potential to a chimeric virus (p7M2) in NIH Swiss and SWR/J mice, but not in CD-1 mice. The addition of the 3'-end env sequences (comprising the carboxy terminus of gp70 and all p15E) to the U3 long terminal repeat sequences restored the full lymphogenic potential of the Moloney MuLV. Our data indicate that the 3'-end sequences of the helper Moloney MuLV are somehow involved in the development of lymphoma induced by A-MuLV. The same sequences have previously been found to harbor the determinant of leukemogenicity and of disease specificity of Moloney MuLV when inoculated alone. 相似文献

BALB/c (H-2d) mice infected with Rauscher murine leukemia virus (RMuLV) developed two phases of thrombocytopenia: an acute phase, probably due to direct virus-platelet interactions, and a delayed phase, starting 2 to 3 wk after virus injection, which was associated with the infection of megakaryocytes by RMuLV and with the expression of RMuLV gp70 and p30 antigens on platelet membranes. This study was concerned with the pathogenesis of this second phase of thrombocytopenia. During this period, the number of marrow megakaryocytes was increased. A peripheral platelet destruction was further indicated by reduced platelet life span. It was shown that radiolabeled platelets, either normal or infected, were submitted to a more rapid clearance in infected recipients than in normal recipients. This might be due to the splenomegaly observed in infected recipients. However, the immediate clearance of gp70+ platelets was more accelerated in infected recipients with high titers of serum anti-gp70 antibodies than in infected recipients without detectable serum anti-gp70 antibodies. In addition, the passive transfer of anti-RMuLV serum to normal BALB/c mice induced a rapid and specific clearance of previously injected radiolabeled platelets expressing RMuLV antigens. In H-2d mice, viral gp70 antigen expression on platelets correlated with the development of delayed thrombocytopenia; but H-2k strains of mice, although susceptible to RMuLV and expressing RMuLV-related antigens on their platelets, did not develop any anti-RMuLV antibodies nor any delayed thrombocytopenia. These results suggest that specific clearance of gp70+ platelets in the presence of significant amounts of serum antiviral antibodies and nonspecific hypersplenism play a role in the development of delayed thrombocytopenia in RMuLV-infected mice. 相似文献
