When stored fish or some fish products were tested for the presence of Clostridium botulinum toxin, nonspecific toxic reactions in mice often occurred, rendering the bioassay inconclusive. The nonspecific toxic reactions were mediated by the gram-negative microbiota, inherent to the fish, which were the source of lethal, heat-stable endotoxins. The treatment of assay samples with bovine serum eliminated nonspecific reactions through the interaction of constituent serum immunoglobulin M (IgM) with endotoxic material. Removal of IgM from bovine serum through treatment with protein A or concanavalin A resulted in a loss of protective activity. 相似文献

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is a popular technique for quantifiable detection of specific antibodies in warm-blooded animals, but it has not been accepted for detection of fish antibodies because of its low reproducibility, which is due in part to high background optical density (OD) measurements. In the present study, we report that the high background of a fish antibody-detection ELISA resulted from non-specific adsorption of fish immunoglobulin M (IgM) to blocking reagents on the ELISA plate wells. Four fish sera (from rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss, masu salmon O. masou, Japanese flounder Paralichthys olivaceus and koi Cyprinus carpio) were poured into ELISA plate wells pre-blocked with several blocking reagents (skim milk, soybean milk, bovine serum albumin, fetal bovine serum, gelatin and Roche BlockingReagent) and then washed out in order to measure the remaining fish IgM on the ELISA plate wells. Significant amounts of fish IgMs (OD absorbance at 492 nm: 0.3 to 1.1) remained on the ELISA plate wells with no antigenic protein except blocking reagents. The amount of remaining fish IgMs on the ELISA plate wells decreased significantly following treatment of fish sera with skim milk. However, the specific immuno-reactivity of fish IgM was not reduced by such treatment. Thus, we conclude that treatment of fish sera with skim milk is useful in reducing the high background OD often observed in fish IgM detection ELISA. 相似文献

A differential effect of IgM and IgG antibodies on the blastogenic response of lymphocytes to rubella virus 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Peripheral blood lymphocytes of rabbits immunized with live rubella vaccine respond to rubella virus antigens in tissue culture with increased DNA synthesis as measured by incorporation of 3H-thymidine. This reaction can be inhibited by rubella antibody. A dose dependent effect was observed when antibodies in whole serum were mixed with virus prior to addition to lymphocyte cultures. When antisera were fractionated and their individual immunoglobulins tested, a paradoxical effect was obtained. Immune IgG although it was highly effective in neutralizing the virus was incapable of inhibiting the lymphocyte response and at times caused an increased response. In contrast, immune IgM which was less efficient in neutralizing virus caused significant suppression of the blastogenic reaction. By themselves these results might have signified that IgG and IgM antibodies have different specificities or different binding properties with respect to viral surface antigens. However, immune complexes consisting of virus and IgM reduced response of both rubella immune and normal rabbit lymphocytes to PHA. This nonspecific inhibitory action required a specific step of antigen and IgM antibody interaction and normal IgM-virus mixtures or mixtures of anti-rubella IgM and poliovirus or influenza virus did not suppress lymphocyte response to PHA. Anti-rubella IgG complexed with rubella virus did not suppress the PHA response. The IgG function was apparently limited to neutralization of the infectivity of rubella virus whereas the major role of IgM was manifested through its suppressive effect on lymphocyte reactions. 相似文献

Indian major carps (IMC), rohu (Labeo rohita), catla (Catla catla) and mrigal (Cirrhinus mrigala) were immunized with bovine serum albumin and the serum immunoglobulin M (IgM) was purified by affinity chromatography. The heavy and light chain of IgM of all the three species of IMC were about 88 and 26 kDa, respectively. Anti-fish IgM antibody against all the three species were raised in mice and the reaction of anti-fish IgM antibodies with IgM of all the three species of IMC were studied by Western blot. The anti-fish IgM antibodies reacted strongly with the heavy chain of the same species against which it was raised while the reactions with the heavy chain of other species were milder indicating some degree of epitope sharing among the heavy chains of IgM of IMCs. However, there was no cross-reaction with the light chain of any of the IgM. 相似文献

Specific and nonspecific Ag-presentation by B cells was examined for the sensitivity to the treatment with emetin, an irreversible protein synthesis inhibitor. For this aim, A20-HL B lymphoma cells expressing surface IgM receptors specific for TNP were used as APC. OVA and TNP-OVA were used as nonspecific and specific Ag, respectively. The treatment with emetin greatly impaired the ability of A20-HL cells to present specific Ag, but not nonspecific Ag, to 42-6A cloned T cells specific for OVA. The ability of the emetin-treated A20-HL cells to present nonspecific Ag indicates that the treated cells are able to process nonspecific Ag and to present processed Ag. Ag binding and the internalization by A20-HL cells through surface receptors were not affected by the emetin treatment. A20-HL cells took up specific Ag for stimulation of 42-6A cells in the presence of cycloheximide, a reversible protein synthesis inhibitor. These results suggest that the action of emetin is localized to the intracellular processing of specific Ag, not of nonspecific Ag. Thus, the processing pathway for specific Ag seems to be different from that for nonspecific Ag. 相似文献

The effect of fish oil-derived omega-3 (omega-3) fatty acids on anaphylaxis, Arthus and delayed type hypersensitivity reactions in mice has been investigated. Mice on a normal chow diet were fed eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid at a dose of 500 and 333 mg/kg/day, respectively, by a gastric tube over a period of 61 days. Control groups were given water, safflower oil or oleic acid. Anaphylactic and Arthus type reactions were induced in the mouse footpad using bovine serum albumin as an antigen. Carrageenin was utilized to produce a delayed type hypersensitivity reaction. The animals fed omega-3 fatty acids induced a more anaphylactic foodpad reaction. There was no significant effect of the diet on Arthus and delayed type hypersensitivity responses. There was no effect of the fish oil-supplemented diet on production of antibodies to bovine serum albumin. Synthesis of prostaglandin E2 by peritoneal macrophages was significantly inhibited in the animals fed omega-3 fatty acid-enriched fish oil, while leukotriene B4 production was not affected. These results suggest that a diet enriched in omega-3 fatty acids modulates production of arachidonic acid metabolites and this may influence anaphylaxis, but not Arthus and cellular mediated hypersensitivity responses. 相似文献

The preparation of assemblies consisting of multiple molecular layers of bovine serum albumin (BSA), monoclonal antibodies against horseradish peroxidase (anti-HRP), and monoclonal antibodies against methotrexate (anti-MTT), as well as interaction of the assemblies with human blood plasma were observed using a grating coupler and Young interferometer (YI). The assemblies could be arranged according to decreasing amounts of nonspecific deposits bound irreversibly to them from blood plasma as follows-an adsorbed antibody monolayer saturated with adsorbed BSA, antibody multilayers linked with polycations, antibodies covalently immobilized on a BSA layer densely crosslinked with glutaraldehyde (GA), slightly crosslinked BSA double layer, slightly crosslinked antibody double layers. The occurrence of human serum albumin (HSA), human fibrinogen (Fg), IgG, and IgM in the plasma deposits was studied by binding the respective antibodies. IgG, IgM, and Fg were detected in plasma deposits on the immobilized assemblies while the composition of a plasma deposit on the unmodified sensor surface reflected roughly the plasma composition containing mainly adsorbed HSA and Fg. A crosslinked anti-HRP double layer was immobilized on a waveguiding branch of YI and a similar anti-MTT double layer was immobilized on the other branch. The sensor response to blood plasma was fairly decreased owing to a compensation of the respective optical changes in the two branches, in which a similar non-specific adsorption took place. The addition of HRP or MTT to plasma induced specific responses of the corresponding branches. 相似文献

In mammals, natural antibodies (Nabs) are mostly of the IgM isotype and can bind to a particular antigen or pathogen even if the host has never been exposed. Despite their early detection and abundance, the exact role and genetic control of Nabs remain unclear. We have used an indirect ELISA with three different antigens (keyhole limpet haemocyanin, chicken ovalbumin and bovine serum albumin) to demonstrate the ubiquitous presence of Nabs in common carp. Serum levels of Nabs increased with age, i.e. 10-month-old fish showed higher levels than 4-month-old fish. Also, fish grown in earth ponds showed higher levels of Nabs than fish grown in a clean environment of UV-treated water. Furthermore, we show that Nabs are present in different levels in the serum of carp lines with a different genetic background, suggestive of a genetic control. These genetic differences were independent of antigen, age and environment. Genetic differences in levels of Nabs could not unequivocally be related to differences in survival under farmed conditions. The possibilities for using levels of Nabs as marker criterion for selection for genetic disease resistance are discussed. 相似文献

Microtiter Tests for Detecting Antibody in Bovine Serum to Parainfluenza 3 Virus, Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis Virus, and Bovine Virus Diarrhea Virus 总被引:11,自引:1,他引:10
Microneutralization tests for detection of antibody in bovine serum to three bovine viruses are described. The Madin-Darby bovine kidney cell line was used with parainfluenza 3 virus (PI 3), whereas serially cultivated bovine embryonic kidney cells were used for infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus and bovine virus diarrhea virus. Comparison of micro-hemagglutination-inhibition (HI) with micro-serum-neutralization (SN) tests for PI 3 showed the SN test to be more sensitive, more specific, and therefore more useful than the HI test for detecting antibody. Although the effect of trypsin-periodate treatment of serum was to reduce the HI titer of numerous sera by a twofold dilution, sufficient evidence could not be found to indicate that nonspecific HI inhibitors to PI 3 are present in bovine sera. 相似文献

Inhibition of humoral immunity in vivo by monoclonal antibody to L3T4: studies with soluble antigens in intact mice 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13

Monoclonal antibody (MAb) to the mouse "helper" T cell antigen L3T4 inhibits the T cell response to class II major histocompatibility antigens on antigen-presenting cells in vitro and in thymectomized mice. To examine the effect of MAb to L3T4 on humoral immunity in euthymic mice, we treated BALB/c mice with 1 mg of anti-L3T4 i.p. at the time of immunization with either bovine serum albumin (BSA) or chicken egg ovalbumin (OA) in complete Freund's adjuvant. Administration of MAb to L3T4 selectively depleted greater than 90% of L3T4+ cells from the blood, spleen, and lymph nodes, but it had little effect on thymocytes. Mice treated with anti-L3T4 were unable to generate an IgG response to either BSA or OA. Treatment with anti-L3T4 also prevented the antigen-specific IgM response to these antigens, although it did not prevent nonspecific stimulation of IgM anti-BSA and anti-OA antibodies induced by adjuvant in the absence of antigen. Humoral immunity was inhibited even when treatment was delayed until 48 hr after immunization. These findings indicate that T cell help for humoral immunity can be abrogated in intact mice by MAb to L3T4. 相似文献

A quantitative study of serum immunoglobulin levels and haemagglutination titres has shown that an injection of the microsporidan Glugea stephani caused a decrease in the humoral response of the winter flounder. These examples demonstrate the effect of temperature on the decrease in total IgM levels and haemagglutination titres in winter flounder simultaneously injected with either G. stephani or horse red blood cells.
Transfer of serum from fish injected with spores 3 weeks earlier may also implicate soluble serum factors, such as prostaglandins or leukotrienes, causing the observed decrease in serum IgM levels. 相似文献

Ferritin-binding proteins (FBPs) in bovine serum were characterized by ferritin immunoassay, ferritin-binding activity, and immunoblotting. Serum ferritin, but not tissue ferritin, was precipitated by centrifugation at 14000 x g for 30 min, and bovine spleen ferritin added to bovine serum was precipitated by centrifugation at 1650 x g for 20 min. Two FBPs (FBP1 and FBP2) were purified from bovine serum by sequential chromatography on bovine spleen ferritin-Sepharose 4B affinity and Sephacryl S-300 columns. FBP1 separated into 82 kDa- and 26 kDa-bands on SDS-PAGE, while FBP2 separated into 55 kDa- and 26 kDa-bands. FBP1 and FBP2 were identified as IgM and IgG, respectively, by immunoblotting with alkaline phosphatase-labeled antibodies specific for bovine IgM, IgG, and IgA heavy chains. Given these results, we suggest that bovine FBPs are autoantibodies (IgM and IgG) to ferritin and that circulating ferritin exists as an immune complex. 相似文献

Because 7S immunoglobulin (Ig) G antibodies of low type specificity were present in mixtures with highly specific 19S IgM antibodies, many bovine antisera to foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) type A(12), strain 119 cross-reacted with type O of FMDV and to some degree with type C in the passive hemagglutination (HA) test. After 19S IgM antibodies were separated by density gradient centrifugation or precipitated with 4% (w/v) polyethylene glycol, the antigen could be determined with "block" HA tests. Such tests used several antigen concentrations in the titration of each antiserum. Adding 4% (w/v) polyethylene glycol to the serum was especially convenient for rapid precipitation of 19S IgM antibodies for the test. Similar results were obtained with bovine 19S IgM antibodies to FMDV type O, subtype 1, strain Caseros and type C strain Rezende. 相似文献

A set of anti-carbohydrate antibodies and a set of anti-protein antibodies were isolated from the serum of rabbits immunized with a glycoconjugate ofl-fucose and bovine serum albumin. The sets were separated by affinity chromatography by a two-column method on adsorbents withl-fucose or bovine serum albumin ligands. Isoelectrofocusing results showed that the anti-carbohydrate antibodies consisted of 11 molecular species and the anti-bovine serum albumin antibodies consisted of seven molecular species. The anti-carbohydrate antibodies are all of the IgG type while the anti-protein antibodies contain three types of globulin molecules, IgA, IgG, and IgM. The former antibodies should be useful as markers for unique glycoproteins of diseased cells and the latter antibodies may be useful for investigating the mechanism of simultaneous synthesis of three types of immunoglobulins. 相似文献

Dendritic cells are professional antigen-presenting cells that can be generated in vitro either from monocytes or from CD34+ peripheral blood progenitor cells by using recombinant cytokines. These cells have potential implications for immunotherapeutic
approaches in the treatment of cancer and other diseases. We have conducted a phase I study in melanoma patients using peptide-pulsed
dendritic cells cultured in medium supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum (FCS) and a cocktail of cytokines. Peptide-pulsed
dendritic cells were injected intravenously at 2-week intervals. Here we report on a case of type I hypersensitivity anaphylactic
reaction after repetitive vaccination with autologous peptide-pulsed cells. Pre-vaccination and post-vaccination serum samples
were evaluated for the presence of antibodies to FCS and bovine serum albumin (BSA). A retrospective study in 7 patients vaccinated
with FCS-cultured dendritic cells demonstrated the presence of IgG and IgM antibodies to FCS and BSA after vaccination in
6 out of 7 patients. However, IgE antibodies were absent in all patients with the exception of the patient developing anaphylaxis.
The patient's serum was demonstrated to contain a strong IgE response directed against BSA. In contrast, 2 patients vaccinated
with dendritic cells cultured under serum-free conditions developed no antibodies to FCS and BSA after repetitive vaccination.
We suggest that patients can be sensitized with an IgE response against BSA leading to anaphylactic reactions. On the basis
of these data, dendritic cells cultured in autologous serum or under serum-free conditions are recommended for therapeutic
applications in vivo.

草鱼血清IgM蛋白的纯化及抗血清的制备 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
采用盐析法、重组蛋白A(HiTrapr Protein A Sepharose)亲和层析法分离纯化草鱼血清中的IgM,并通过SDS-PAGE及Western-blot技术对纯化蛋白的部分特性进行分析比较并制备兔抗IgM抗血清。结果表明:33%硫酸铵溶液可以沉淀血清中大部分蛋白,但电泳条带仍较多,其中含有78kD和28kD的条带,因此仅可作为免疫球蛋白粗提的方法;而rProtein A亲和层析法所提蛋白则仅有上述重链(78kD)和轻链(28kD)。Western-blot显示,鼠抗人Ig抗体可与78kD及28kD条带发生发应。rProtein A亲和法提纯蛋白的纯度较高,但含量较低,条带较淡,仅可作为实验室小量提纯草鱼IgM的有效方法。将提纯的蛋白免疫实验兔后可制得效价高达1:25600的兔抗鱼IgM血清,并测得血清蛋白总量和IgM含量分别为25.87mg和4.5mg,IgM占血清蛋白总量的17.39%。本实验所采用的蛋白A亲和层析法提取草鱼血清IgM可以方便、快捷地获得高纯度的产物,适合在实验室中纯化鱼类IgM。同时本研究所制备的兔抗草鱼IgM血清也为今后的相关研究工作打下基础。 相似文献

Protein patterning was carried out using a simple procedure based on photolithography wherein the protein was not subjected to UV irradiation and high temperatures or contacted with denaturing solvents or strongly acidic or basic solutions. Self-assembled monolayers of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) on silicon surfaces were exposed to oxygen plasma through a patterned photoresist. The etched regions were back-filled with an initiator for surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). ATRP of sodium acrylate was readily achieved at room temperature in an aqueous medium. Protonation of the polymer resulted in patterned poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) brushes. A variety of biomolecules containing amino groups could be covalently tethered to the dense carboxyl groups of the brush, under relatively mild conditions. The PEG regions surrounding the PAA brush greatly reduced nonspecific adsorption. Avidin was covalently attached to PAA brushes, and biotin-tagged proteins could be immobilized through avidin-biotin interaction. Such an immobilization method, which is based on specific interactions, is expected to better retain protein functionality than direct covalent binding. Using biotin-tagged bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a model, a simple strategy was developed for immobilization of small biological molecules using BSA as linkages, while BSA can simultaneously block nonspecific interactions. 相似文献

A novel enzyme immunoassay of anti-insulin IgG in guinea pig serum is described. Guinea pig anti-insulin serum diluted with nonspecific guinea pig serum was incubated with dinitrophenyl biotinyl nonspecific rabbit IgG-insulin conjugate and a rabbit (anti-dinitrophenyl bovine serum albumin) IgG-coated polystyrene ball. After washing to eliminate nonspecific guinea pig IgG in the diluted serum, the polystyrene ball was incubated with dinitrophenyl-L-lysine to elute the complex of anti-insulin IgG and the conjugate. The eluate was incubated with an avidin-coated polystyrene ball. Finally, the amount of guinea pig anti-insulin IgG in the complex trapped onto the avidin-coated polystyrene ball was measured by incubation with rabbit (anti-guinea pig IgG) Fab'-peroxidase conjugate. This enzyme immunoassay was 10,000-fold more sensitive than the conventional enzyme immunoassay using insulin-coated polystyrene ball and rabbit (anti-guinea pig IgG) Fab'-peroxidase conjugate. 相似文献
