We have devised a solid-phase radioimmunoassay for the detection and characterization of monoclonal antibodies directed against platelet surface antigens. Platelet membrane proteins, solubilized with 0.1% Triton X-100, were covalently coupled to cyanogen bromide (CNBr)-activated filter paper disks that were than used as the support in antibody binding assays. SDS PAGE of solubilized membrane proteins taken immediately before and after incubation with activated disks indicated that representative amounts of each membrane protein were bound to the disks. Either monoclonal or heterologous anti-platelet antibody could be detected on disks that had been prepared using as little as 50 micrograms of membrane protein per 100 disks. For the detection of antibody, disks were incubated with test sera for 2 h, washed, and incubated with 125I-labeled anti-immunoglobulin G, and the amount of bound radioactivity was determined. The sensitivity of the disk assay in detecting monoclonal antibodies was far greater than that of a corresponding radioimmunoassay that used whole platelets as the solid phase. By linking other proteins such as fibrinogen or anti-mouse subclass specific antisera to CNBr-activated disks, the method was adapted for antibody characterization. The sensitivity and ease with which the assay can be performed make this technique most suitable for screening and characterizing monoclonal antibodies. 相似文献

Immunocytology has wide spread applications for localizing tissue antigens, as evidenced by the recent exploitation of this technique in biological studies. Documenting the immunological specificity of the staining reaction is one of the most important technical considerations in validating the accrued data in immunocytological studies. The purpose of this report is to discuss and emphasize the need for conducting physiological studies in addition to the traditional immunological method and specificity controls. The ability of antibodies to bind molecules other than those molecules used as the immunizing material is a well documented fact. Hypothetically, preabsorption of the primary antibody with its specific antigen, could reduce subsequent binding of this antibody to a cross reactive tissue antigen, thus providing false confirmation of staining validity. The results of our experience with a cross reacting system in addition to other previously reported examples are discussed. 相似文献

The B-domain, which is one of IgG-binding domains of staphylococcal protein A, was repeated five times and a cysteine residue was introduced at its C-terminus by a genetic engineering technique. The resulting protein, designated B5C1, retained the same IgG-binding activity as native protein A. The B5C1 was assembled on a gold plate surface by utilizing a strong affinity between thiol of cysteine and a gold surface. IgG-binding activity of B5C1 on a gold surface was much higher than that of physically adsorbed B5, which lacks cysteine residue. Furthermore, antigen-binding activity of immobilized antibody molecules through the use of assembled B5C1 on a gold surface was about 4.3 times higher than that of physically adsorbed antibody molecules. Immobilization of highly oriented antibody molecules was realized with the engineered IgG-binding protein. 相似文献

We developed a label-free method for a determination of the number of biomolecules attached to individual cells by measuring the electrophoretic mobility of the cells in a microchannel. The surface of a biological cell, which is dispersed in aqueous solution, is normally electrically charged and the charge quantity at the cell's surface is slightly changed once antibody molecules are attached to the cell, based on which we detect the attachment of antibody molecules to the surface of individual red blood cells by electrophoretic mobility measurement. We also analyzed the number of antibody molecules attached to the cell's surface using a flow cytometer. We found that there is a clear correlation between the number of antibody molecules attached to the individual cells and the electrophoretic mobility of the cells. The present technique may well be utilized not only in the field of cell biology but also in the medical and pharmaceutical industries. 相似文献

Two embryonic, tissue-specific molecules identified by a double-label immunofluorescence technique for monoclonal antibodies 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
We identify two tissue-specific molecules in the sea urchin embryo by an immunofluorescence technique capable of co-localizing monoclonal antibodies on the same tissue section. The technique uses monovalent Fab-fluorochrome conjugates as secondary reagents to avoid cross-talk of subsequent antibody probes. Using this technique, we show that two cell surface molecules are expressed by different cell populations in the embryo. The technique is generally applicable for antibodies regardless of species or subtype specificity, and uses commercially available reagents. The technique provides sufficient amplification and resolution for analytical work, yet is rapid enough for screening procedures. As a fluorescent counterstain, use of the dye 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (SITS) in the protocol provides a distinct fluorescent background staining of the tissue without interference with the specific antibody staining. 相似文献

The cell substrate attachment (CSAT) antigen is an integral membrane glycoprotein complex that participates in the adhesion of cells to extracellular molecules. The CSAT monoclonal antibody, directed against this complex, inhibited adhesion of cardiac and tendon fibroblasts and skeletal myoblasts to both laminin and fibronectin, thus implicating the CSAT antigen in adhesion to these extracellular molecules. Equilibrium gel filtration was used to explore the hypothesis that the CSAT antigen functions as a cell surface receptor for both laminin and fibronectin. In this technique, designed for rapidly exchanging equilibria, the gel filtration column is pre-equilibrated with extracellular ligand to ensure receptor occupancy during its journey through the column. Both laminin and fibronectin formed complexes with the CSAT antigen. The association with laminin was inhibited by the CSAT monoclonal antibody; the associations with both fibronectin and laminin were inhibited by synthetic peptides containing the fibronectin cell-binding sequence. Estimates of the dissociation constants by equilibrium gel filtration agree well with those available from other measurements. This suggests that these associations are biologically significant. SDS PAGE showed that all three glycoproteins comprising the CSAT antigen were present in the antigen-ligand complexes. Gel filtration and velocity sedimentation were used to show that the three bands comprise and oligomeric complex, which provides an explanation for their functional association. The inhibition of adhesion by the CSAT monoclonal antibody and the association of the purified antigen with extracellular ligands are interpreted as strongly implicating the CSAT antigen as a receptor for both fibronectin and laminin and perhaps for other extracellular molecules as well. 相似文献

Analysis of the interaction of antibodies with immunoglobulin idiotypes on neoplastic B lymphocytes: implications for immunotherapy 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

We have examined the reactions of a panel of nine monoclonal anti-idiotype antibodies with the surface immunoglobulin in situ on guinea pig L2C leukemic lymphocytes. Equilibrium binding constants were shown to range between 10(7) and 10(8) M-1 for univalent Fab' gamma fragments and between 10(8) and 10(9) M-1 for intact IgG. Saturation of the cell surface binding sites was achieved with 2.9 X 10(5) Fab' gamma molecules/cell and 1.2 X 10(5) IgG molecules/cell for each antibody, a result that is consistent with a bivalent mode of interaction for the IgG. Despite these overall similarities in binding characteristics antibodies showed striking differences in their ability to clear Ig from the cell surface by antigenic modulation in vitro. This suggested differences in the readiness with which the antibodies cross-linked neighboring surface Ig molecules. Such an interpretation was supported by differences in the times required to achieve bivalent binding at 0 degree C, and in the rates at which labeled antibody dissociated from the cell surface in the presence or absence of an excess of unlabeled antibody. The data are consistent with there being two functionally distinct types of anti-idiotype antibody: those that form predominantly intra-Ig bridges, with each antibody Fab being linked to an Fab on one target molecule ("monogamous" binding) and not favoring modulation; and those that form predominantly inter-Ig bridges ("bigamous" binding) and favor modulation. The nature of interaction is presumably dictated by the orientation of the particular idiotope concerned. This distinction could be of great importance in the therapeutic use of anti-idiotype to ablate B cell neoplasms. 相似文献

Distearoylphosphatidylcholine (DSPC)/cholesterol/distearoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DSPE)–polyethylene glycol 5000 [PEG(5000)] lipid disks, mimicking biological membranes, were used as pseudostationary phase in partial filling electrokinetic capillary chromatography (EKC) to study interactions between pharmaceuticals and lipid disks. Capillaries were coated either noncovalently with a poly(1-vinylpyrrolidone)-based copolymer or covalently with polyacrylamide to mask the negative charges of the fused-silica capillary wall and to minimize interactions between positively charged pharmaceuticals and capillary wall. Although the noncovalent copolymer coating method was faster, better stability of the covalent polyacrylamide coating at physiological pH 7.4 made it more reliable in partial filling EKC studies. Migration times of pharmaceuticals were proportional to the amount of lipids in the pseudostationary phase, and partition coefficients were successfully determined. Because the capillary coatings almost totally suppressed the electroosmotic flow, it was not practical to use the EKC-based method for partition studies involving large molecules with low mobilities. Hence, the applicability of the biomembrane mimicking lipid disks for interactions studies with large molecules was verified by the quartz crystal microbalance technique. Biotinylated lipid disks were then immobilized on streptavidin-coated sensor chip surface, and interactions with a high-molecular-mass molecule, lysozyme, were studied. Cryo-transmission electron microscopy and asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation were used to clarify the sizes of lipid disks used. 相似文献

Voltage-gated sodium channel alpha and beta subunits expressed in mammalian heart are differentially localized to t-tubules and intercalated disks. Sodium channel beta subunits are multifunctional molecules that participate in channel modulation and cell adhesion. Reversible, receptor-mediated changes in beta1 tyrosine phosphorylation modulate its ability to recruit and associate with ankyrin. The purpose of the present study was to test our hypothesis that tyrosine-phosphorylated beta1 (pYbeta1) and nonphosphorylated beta1 subunits may be differentially localized in heart and thus interact with different cytoskeletal and signaling proteins. We developed an antibody that specifically recognizes pYbeta1 and investigated the differential subcellular localization of beta1 and pYbeta1 in mouse ventricular myocytes. We found that pYbeta1 colocalized with connexin-43, N-cadherin, and Nav1.5 at intercalated disks but was not detected at the t-tubules. Anti-pYbeta1 immunoprecipitates N-cadherin from heart membranes and from cells transfected with beta1 and N-cadherin in the absence of other sodium channel subunits. pYbeta1 does not associate with ankyrinB in heart membranes. N-cadherin and connexin-43 associate with Nav1.5 in heart membranes as assessed by co-immunoprecipitation assays. We propose that sodium channel complexes at intercalated disks of ventricular myocytes are composed of Nav1.5 and pYbeta1 and that these complexes are in close association with both N-cadherin and connexin-43. beta1 phosphorylation appears to regulate its localization to differential subcellular domains. 相似文献

The computer simulation technique of molecular dynamics was applied to a model two-dimensional fluid mixture system to examine the short-range ordering of lipid and protein molecules in biological membranes. The model system consists of small disks (lipids) and large disks (proteins) with a radius ratio of 6, constrained to move in a plane. The particles interact with pairwise additive repulsive short range potentials, so as to simulate hard disks. Periodic boundary conditions are assumed in order to minimize boundary effects. For values of the number density of the small disks and of the temperature appropriate for a lipid membrane, the fraction, f, of small disks 'next to' at least one large disk was computed by molecular dynamics. This was done as a function of concentration and for several definitions of 'next to'. The molecular dynamics results show that, at moderately low mole fractions of the large disks, the calculated values of f deviate noticeably from the linear relation which would be expected in the absence of protein-protein proximity effects. The results are discussed in terms of current models of lipid-protein ordering in biological membranes. 相似文献

A monoclonal anti-HEBFPP antibody with specificity for lymphocyte surface molecules mediating adhesion to Peyer's patch high endothelium of the rat 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

Cell surface molecules involved in lymphocyte adhesion to high endothelial cell venules (HEV) of Peyer's patches (PP) have been studied in the rat by using a mouse monoclonal anti-HEBFPP (1B.2) antibody. We previously showed that rat thoracic duct lymph contains a high endothelial cell binding factor termed HEBFPP, which in vitro blocks lymphocyte binding sites of HEVPP but not HEVLN. Monoclonal 1B.2 antibody was produced by fusing P3U1 myeloma cells with spleen cells of a mouse immunized with this material. Immunoprecipitation studies with 125I surface-labeled rat thoracic duct lymphocytes (TDL) showed that the antibody recognized an 80-kilodalton protein. This antigen was present in the majority of TDL, spleen, LN, and PP cells but was found on few (5 to 10%) thymus and bone marrow cells (indirect immunofluorescence). Treatment of TDL with 1B.2 antibody blocked their ability to bind in vitro to HEVPP; antibody treatment did not interfere with TDL adhesion to HEVLN. Analysis of 1B.2 antigen isolated from lymph and detergent lysates of TDL by antibody-affinity chromatography showed that this material had the capacity to block lymphocyte binding sites of HEVPP but not HEVLN. In contrast, material with such blocking activity was not isolated from detergent lysates of thymocyte, a population deficient in HEV-binding cells. The results indicate that the 1B.2 antigen is a component of the lymphocyte surface recognition structure mediating adhesion to HEVPP and provide further evidence that distinct adhesion molecules of rat TDL mediate interaction with high endothelium of LN and PP. 相似文献

Solid-phase assays play a crucial role today in biological studies. These assays are based on the immobilization of probe molecules on a surface, which are able to capture specifically soluble receptors. In particular, peptide microarrays have emerged as powerful tools in a variety of applications. In this context, optical techniques that allow imaging of nanometer-thick biomolecular films, and thereby the characterization of microarrays, are of great interest. For this purpose, we used a recently disclosed wide-field optical imaging technique of surface nanostructures called Sarfus, which is based on the use of a standard optical microscope and antireflection substrates. We demonstrate here that this technique allows the imaging of the protein layers that result from the specific capture of antibodies by arrayed peptide probes with a spatial resolution of 0.45 microm. The relationship between the thickness of the antibody layer and peptide or antibody concentration was examined. 相似文献

This article presents a new technique to fabricate patterns of functional molecules surrounded by a coating of the inert poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) on glass slides for applications in protein microarray technology. The chief advantages of this technique are that it is based entirely on standard lithography processes, makes use of glass slides employing surface chemistries that are standard in the microarray community, and has the potential to massively scale up the density of microarray spots. It is shown that proteins and antibodies can be made to self-assemble on the functional patterns in a microarray format, with the PEG coating acting as an effective passivating agent to prevent non-specific protein adsorption. Various standard surface chemistries such as aldehyde, epoxy and amine are explored for the functional layer, and it is conclusively demonstrated that only an amine-terminated surface satisfies all the process constraints imposed by the lithography process sequence. The effectiveness of this microarray technology is demonstrated by patterning fluorescent streptavidin and a fluorescent secondary antibody using the well-known and highly specific interaction between biotin and streptavidin. 相似文献

We report here the development and characterization of protein microarrays fabricated on nanoengineered 3-D polyelectrolyte thin films (PET) deposited on glass slide by consecutive adsorption of polyelectrolytes via self-assembly technique. Antibodies or antigens were immobilized in the PET-coated glass slides by electrostatic adsorption and entrapment of porous structure of the 3-D polymer film and thus establishing a platform for parallel analysis. Both antigen and antibody microarrays were fabricated on the PET-coated slides, and direct and indirect immunoassays on protein microarrays for multiple-analyte detection were demonstrated. Microarrays produced on these PET-coated slides have consistent spot morphology and provide performance features needed for proteomic analysis. The protein microarrays on the PET films provide LOD as low as 6 pg/mL and dynamic ranges up to three orders of magnitude, which are wider than the protein microarrays fabricated on aldehyde and poly-L-lysine functionalized slides. The PET films constructed by self-assembly technique in aqueous solution is green chemistry based, cost-effective method to generate 3-D thin film coatings on glass surface, and the coated slide is well suited for immobilizing many types of biological molecules so that a wide variety of microarray formats can be developed on this type of slide. 相似文献

We have developed a method that combines dynamic force microscopy with the simultaneous molecular recognition of an antigen by an antibody, during imaging. A magnetically oscillated atomic force microscopy tip carrying a tethered antibody was scanned over a surface to which lysozyme was bound. By oscillating the probe at an amplitude of only a few nanometers, the antibody was kept in close proximity to the surface, allowing fast and efficient antigen recognition and gentle interaction between tip and sample. Antigenic sites were evident from reduction of the oscillation amplitude, as a result of antibody-antigen recognition during the lateral scan. Lysozyme molecules bound to the surface were recognized by the antibody on the scanning tip with a few nanometers lateral resolution. In principle, any ligand can be tethered to the tip; thus, this technique could potentially be used for nanometer-scale epitope mapping of biomolecules and localizing receptor sites during biological processes. 相似文献

The interaction of cells and tissues with artificial materials designed for applications in biotechnologies and in medicine is governed by the physical and chemical properties of the material surface. There is optimal cell adhesion to moderately hydrophilic and positively charged substrates, due to the adsorption of cell adhesion-mediating molecules (e.g. vitronectin, fibronectin) in an advantageous geometrical conformation, which makes specific sites on these molecules (e.g. specific amino acid sequences) accessible to cell adhesion receptors (e.g. integrins). Highly hydrophilic surfaces prevent the adsorption of proteins, or these molecules are bound very weakly. On highly hydrophobic materials, however, proteins are adsorbed in rigid and denatured forms, hampering cell adhesion. The wettability of the material surface, particularly in synthetic polymers, can be effectively regulated by physical treatments, e.g. by irradiation with ions, plasma or UV light. The irradiation-activated material surface can be functionalized by various biomolecules and nanoparticles, and this further enhances its attractiveness for cells and its effectiveness in regulating cell functions. Another important factor for cell-material interaction is surface roughness and surface topography. Nanostructured substrates (i.e. substrates with irregularities smaller than 100nm), are generally considered to be beneficial for cell adhesion and growth, while microstructured substrates behave more controversially (e.g. they can hamper cell spreading and proliferation but they enhance cell differentiation, particularly in osteogenic cells). A factor which has been relatively less investigated, but which is essential for cell-material interaction, is material deformability. Highly soft and deformable substrates cannot resist the tractional forces generated by cells during cell adhesion, and cells are not able to attach, spread and survive on such materials. Local variation in the physical and chemical properties of the material surface can be advantageously used for constructing patterned surfaces. Micropatterned surfaces enable regionally selective cell adhesion and directed growth, which can be utilized in tissue engineering, in constructing microarrays and in biosensorics. Nanopatterned surfaces are an effective tool for manipulating the type, number, spacing and distribution of ligands for cell adhesion receptors on the material surface. As a consequence, these surfaces are able to control the size, shape, distribution and maturity of focal adhesion plaques on cells, and thus cell adhesion, proliferation, differentiation and other cell functions. 相似文献

In this technique, cells are cultured on a glass slide that is partly coated with indium-tin oxide (ITO), a transparent, electrically conductive material. A variety of molecules, such as peptides or oligonucleotides can be introduced into essentially 100% of the cells in a non-traumatic manner. Here, we describe how it can be used to study intercellular, gap junctional communication. Lucifer yellow penetrates into the cells when an electric pulse, applied to the conductive surface on which they are growing, causes pores to form through the cell membrane. This is electroporation. Cells growing on the nonconductive glass surface immediately adjacent to the electroporated region do not take up Lucifer yellow by electroporation but do acquire the fluorescent dye as it is passed to them via gap junctions that link them to the electroporated cells. The results of the transfer of dye from cell to cell can be observed microscopically under fluorescence illumination. This technique allows for precise quantitation of gap junctional communication. In addition, it can be used for the introduction of peptides or other non-permeant molecules, and the transfer of small electroporated peptides via gap junctions to inhibit the signal in the adjacent, non-electroporated cells is a powerful demonstration of signal inhibition. 相似文献

The indirect fluorescent antibody (IF) test is often performed on glass slides prepared with smears or tissue sections containing an antigen. It is convenient to have several separate and distinct areas of antigen on the same slide, e.g. to compare dilution steps, and to save time when producing the antigen slides. With this end in view a technique for preparing slides with wells in a thin film of teflon-like compound has been elaborated (Goldman 1968). This technique is useful when a great number of slides need to be prepared in advance, e.g. to test a substantial amount of material. It has, however, not been widely used im serology for Babesia, perhaps because any teflon remaining within the wells is stained with the fluorescent dye, thus creating a potentially disturbing background. 相似文献

This paper reports the effect of soda-lime-glass-nAg coating on the viability of an in vitro biofilm of Streptococcus oralis. Three strains (ATCC 35037 and two clinical isolates from periodontitis patients) were grown on coated with glass, glass containing silver nanoparticles, and uncoated titanium alloy disks. Two different methods were used to quantify biofilm formation abilities: crystal violet staining and determination of viable counts. The influence of the surface morphology on the cell attachment was studied. The surface morphology was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and using a profilometer. SEM was also used to study the formation and the development of biofilm on the coated and uncoated disks. At least a >99.7% inocula reduction of biofilm respect to titanium disks and also to glass coated disks was observed in the glass-nAg coated disks for all the studied strains. A quantitative evaluation of the release of silver was conducted in vitro to test whether and to what extend the biocidal agent (silver) could leach from the coating. These findings suggest that the biofilm formation of S. oralis strains is highly inhibited by the glass-nAg and may be useful for materials which require durable antibacterial effect on their surfaces, as it is the case of dental implants. 相似文献

A method for patterning different antibodies on polystyrene is described. The polystyrene surface is coated with a material resistant to antibody adsorption and the coating material is selectively removed from the region where antibody adsorption is desired, exposing clean polystyrene. Upon immersion of the substrate in antibody solution, antibodies adsorb to the clean polystyrene, but not to the coated areas of the surface. Two methods have been used to remove the coating: ion beam sputtering and mechanical etching. The pattern was verified using gold-labeled antigen in conjunction with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and with FITC-labeled antigen and fluorescence microscopy. Substrates patterned in this way could be used in conjunction with a charge-coupled detector for a multi-analyte biosensor. This patterning technique is suitable for applications in which a fast, inexpensive fabrication process is necessary, for example, in single-use sensors. 相似文献
