Surface antigens of adult filarial parasite S. digitata was isolated by employing techniques from manual dissection to treatment with detergents. Among the surface antigen preparations (SAPs), the activities of marker enzymes such as alkaline phosphatase, adenosine triphosphatase and 5' nucleotidase were higher with that isolated by triton X-100 technique (SAP2). On SDS-PAGE, the SAP2 has three major proteins with molecular weights 17, 29 and 36 KD which were consistent with the PBS soluble cuticular proteins (SAP1). Besides these, few other minor protein bands were also observed with the other SAPs. All SAPs were antigenic and showed positive reaction against antiserum to SAP2, and the results confirmed the SAP2 as a better preparation. The release of 29 KD surface protein during in vitro culture of adult parasite and its cross-reactivity with antiserum to surface antigens revealed the possible natural shedding of surface molecules into the host system. 相似文献

Single step purification of potent antigenic protein from sparganum by gelatin-affinity chromatography 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Out of many component proteins in crude saline extract of Spirometra mansoni plerocercoid (sparganum), 36 kDa and 29 kDa proteins were found to be the most antigenic and were already purified by immunoaffinity chromatography using monoclonal antibody as a ligand. In this study, a single step purification of these potent antigenic proteins of sparganum extract was investigated. When the crude saline extract was charged to gelatin-Sepharose 4B affinity column, 36 kDa and 29 kDa protein fractions were bound. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and SDS-PAGE/immunoblot confirmed that the bound protein to gelatin was serologically pure. When evaluated by ELISA with patients sera, the purified protein of 36 and 29 kDa also showed improved antigenicity. 相似文献

ABSTRACT. A rapid method was developed for the isolation of Pseudomicrothorax dubius ciliary and trichocyst fractions which were characterized by SDS-PAGE followed by combined silver and Coomassie blue staining. Antibodies were prepared against the trichocyst fraction and employed to label Lowicryl thin sections of cells. Trichocysts were strongly labeled, as were the surfaces of the plasma and ciliary membranes. Immunoblots of the trichocyst fraction revealed labeling of major bands at 16–29 kD, characteristic of the trichocyst proteins. On immunoblots of the ciliary fraction, approximately eight bands were labeled, including the major cell surface glycoprotein, the immobilization antigen. Ciliary proteins not located on the membrane surface, such as the tubulins, were not labeled. Absorption of the antiserum against fixed P. dubius cells eliminated the cell surface labeling on Lowicryl sections and on immunoblots of the ciliary fraction. The major trichocyst protein bands were as strongly labeled as with the nonabsorbed antiserum. Labeling of several of the minor, higher molecular weight bands of the trichocyst fraction was eliminated, indicating that they are cell surface contaminants. Of the two major structural components of the trichocyst, the shaft and the arms, the antiserum is shown to react nearly exclusively with the shaft proteins on both Lowicryl sections and immunoblots. 相似文献

Urinary filarial antigen isolated from urine samples of microfilaraemic patients was analysed for its antigenic activity by
immunoblotting and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay techniques. SDS-PAGE fractionation of urinary filarial antigen showed
11 protein bands, of which two showed reactivity with immunoglobulin-G fraction of filarial serum immunoglobulin in immunoblotting.
Antigenic analysis of SDS-PAGE fractions of urinary filarial antigen by inhibition enzyme linked immunosorbent assay using
filarial serum immunoglobulin-G andWuchereria bancrofti microfilarial excretory-secretory antigen revealed 3 fractions, numbers 5, 6 and 9 with significant activity. In indirect
enzyme linked immunosorbent assay using fractions 5 and 6, filarial immunoglobulin-G antibody was detected in about 90% of
microfilaraemics, 80% clinical filariasis and 20% of endemic normal individuals. Further, there was no phosphorylcholine epitope
in these fractions. Fractions 5 and 6 can be a candidate antigens for the immunodiagnosis of filariasis. 相似文献

Analysis of the immune response towards the facultative intracellular bacterium, Brucella melitensis, was studied by immunoblotting after either isoelectric focusing (IEF) or sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). A cytoplasmic extract (CPE) of Brucella melitensis was used as antigen to analyse the response in 17 sera from naturally infected goats. CPE analysed by IEF exhibited 25 proteins within the pH range of 4.35 to 6. Immunoblotting revealed most of the stained bands around pH 4.5-5.4. CPE analysed by SDS-PAGE showed more than 20 silver stained proteins in the molecular range of 16-18 kDa to 70 kDa but immunoblotting revealed only 1 to 6 bands according to the sera tested. Because proteins are preserved in their native state with IEF, in contrast to SDS-PAGE treatment, this technique may be best suited for analysis of the overall response to natural infection. 相似文献

To identify sources of high potency antigens for use in serodiagnosis, aqueous-soluble egg antigens from Schistosoma japonicum were extracted with Dulbecco's phosphate-buffered saline. Residual particulates were solubilized with Tris-buffered 8 M urea, yielding a urea-soluble egg antigen fraction. The urea-soluble fraction was further fractionated with Bio Gel A50m and QAE-Sephadex. All fractions were quantitatively assayed for their specific antigenic activities against serum specimens from infected rabbits by the single-tube enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (k-ELISA). In antigen rate-limiting conditions, the urea-soluble particulate fractions were more antigenically active than the aqueous-soluble fraction. In antigen-excess and antibody-limiting assay conditions, the ideal conditions for serologic assays, the urea-derived antigens also showed superior activities against sera from infected humans. Analysis by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) on gradient gels revealed numerous low molecular weight protein bands in the aqueous-soluble fraction, whereas the urea-soluble fractions appeared to be much simpler with the majority of their proteins concentrated in one or two high molecular weight bands (greater than or equal to 200 kdaltons). Electro-transfer blots of the SDS-PAGE onto nitrocellulose papers and subsequent visualization of antigens by enzyme-linked immunoabsorbence confirmed these findings. The above data suggest that the urea-soluble fraction of S. japonicum eggs is antigenically active and has potential use in the development of a diagnostic reagent. 相似文献

Abstract Monoclonal antibodies raised against single serotype components of a Pseudomonas aeruginosa vaccine have been shown to bind to the O antigen region of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Outer membrane (OM) proteins, prepared by detergent treatment of envelope fractions and by EDTA/sonication treatment of whole cells, were separated on sodium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), electrophoretically transferred to nitrocellulose membrane and reacted with LPS-specific monoclonal antibodies. The patterns produced revealed that many of the protein bands were in fact protein-LPS complexes. 相似文献

Abstract. The human body louse, Pediculus humanus , showed eighteen midgut proteins ranging between 12 and 117 kDa, when analysed by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis. Seven of them (12 kDa, 17 kDa, 29 kDa, 35 kDa, 40 kDa, 55 kDa and 97 kDa) were major bands based on their intensity of staining. The immunization of rabbits with a midgut extract elicited the production of protective polyclonal antibodies. These antibodies reacted strongly with all major midgut proteins as well as with 63 kDa and 117 kDa proteins when tested by the Western blot technique. The analysis of the proteins revealed that the 12 kDa, 25 kDa, 29 kDa, 35 kDa, 45 kDa, 87 kDa and 97 kDa proteins are glycosylated and none of them contained a lipid moiety. By electroelution, the proteins of 35 kDa and 63 kDa were purified. On trypsinization, the proteins of 35 kDa and 63 kDa produced four major fragments (F, F2 , F3 , and F4 ) when resolved on a 18% SDS-PAGE. The Fj fragment of the 35 kDa protein reacted with me polyclonal antibodies by the immunoblot technique. 相似文献

Surface protein and surface antigen patterns of 19 Trypanosoma cruzi laboratory clones, representing 17 different isozymic profiles (zymodemes), were compared by SDS-PAGE analysis. Surface protein patterns were found to be complex and heterogeneous. According to the number of common bands, we calculated similarity coefficients of surface protein patterns on the one hand, and of surface antigen patterns on the other hand, for 33 stock pairwise comparisons. In both cases, these coefficients were statistically correlated to the isozyme index of genetic identity. Such a correlation between independent genetic markers favours the clonal structure of T. cruzi natural populations previously evidenced. Moreover, we did not observe any notable differences in the surface antigen pattern among 4 T. cruzi cloned stocks precipitated by homologous as well as heterologous hyperimmune sera. The immunological significance of the molecular weight variability in surface antigen patterns among different zymodemes is discussed. 相似文献

We used a monoclonal antibody (10A8), derived from mice immunized with fractions enriched in Golgi apparatus of rat brain neurons, to isolate an intrinsic membrane sialoglycoprotein of 160 KD from rat brain. By immunoelectron microscopy the sialoglycoprotein, named MG-160, was localized in medical cisternae of the Golgi apparatus of neurons, glia, adenohypophysis, and cultured rat pheochromocytoma (PC 12). The monoclonal antibody (MAb) reacted only with rat tissues. Because the epitope(s) recognized by a monoclonal antibody may be restricted, localization of an antigen by a single MAb may not reflect the extent of the distribution of antigen in various species and tissues. Therefore, to further investigate the presence and localization of MG-160 or of an antigenically related protein in several species and tissues, we used a polyclonal antiserum raised against MG-160 purified by antibody (10A8) affinity chromatography. Immunoblots of crude microsomal fractions from rat brain probed with the antiserum against MG-160 showed two to three prominent bands of approximately 160, 150, and 68 KD. Immunoblots of crude microsomal fractions from human, chicken, and frog brains showed prominent bands of 130-140 and 68 KD. Immunoblots of crude membrane fractions from Saccharomyces cerevisiae showed prominent bands of approximately 110-120 and 80 KD. Light microscopic immunocytochemical studies with frog, chicken, mouse, rat, rabbit, bovine, and human brains and with several other rat and human tissues showed a staining pattern consistent with the Golgi apparatus. Immunoelectron microscopy with rat and human brain and with rat myocardium and pituitary showed prominent and exclusive staining of cis, medial, and occasionally trans cisternae of the Golgi apparatus. The cisternae of the trans Golgi network were not stained. These findings are consistent with the hypothesis that a polypeptide related to MG-160 is present in the Golgi apparatus of several tissues in human, rodents, chicken, and frog and possibly in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The antiserum to MG-160 represents a reliable reagent for immunohistochemical visualization of the Golgi apparatus in brain and several other human tissues obtained at autopsy, fixed with Bouin's, and embedded in paraffin. 相似文献

Purification of antigenic protein of sparganum by immunoaffinity chromatography using a monoclonal antibody 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The quality improvement of antigen (crude saline extract) of Spirometra mansoni pleroceroid (sparganum) was investigated by protein purification. The crude extract was fractionated by gel filtration through Sephacryl S-300 Superfine. Its third fraction was purified by affinity chromatography using a monoclonal antibody as ligand. When observed by SDS-PAGE, the purified protein was composed of 2 bands of 36 kDa and 29 kDa which were found already as the most sensitive components in the crude extract by immunoblots with patients sera. The quality of the purified antigen was evaluated in comparison with the crude extract by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the specific (IgG) antibody in sera of human sparganosis, other parasitic and neurologic diseases, and normal control. When the purified antigen was used, the sensitivity was not altered but remained high (96.4%) while the specificity was increased from 86.8% to 96.9%. 相似文献

These studies sought to test the hypothesis that the expression of myometrial proteins is modulated as the onset of parturition approaches. Myometrial proteins from timed-pregnant rats were analyzed utilizing sodium dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gel and 2-dimensional electrophoresis, and Western blot techniques. SDS-PAGE gels demonstrated increased expression of at least 10 protein bands from 17 to 200+ KD. 2-dimensional gels confirmed the presence of at least five groups of gestationally modulated proteins. Western blots for phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C demonstrated significant modulation of the expression of three isozymes. These studies have confirmed differential expression of myometrial proteins near term in the timed-pregnant rat; some of which play an important role in intracellular signal transduction in response to hormones and pharmacologic agents. 相似文献

Molecular interactions between sperm and zona pellucida (ZP) during mammalian fertilization are not well characterized. To begin to characterize sperm components that are involved in sperm-ZP interactions, we isolated and density fractionated sperm membranes. The membrane fractions recovered from a density fractionation protocol were characterized, and sonication was compared with vortexing for preparation of sperm membranes by examining the distribution of proteins in the membrane fractions obtained from these 2 protocols. Biochemical and microscopic analyses were used to determine the composition of the sonicated membrane fractions, and immunoblotting was used to identify fractions containing some of the previously suggested ZP3 receptors. Transmission electron microscopy revealed that bands 1-3 contained membrane vesicles and band 4 contained axonemal and midpiece fragments. SDS-PAGE revealed that bands 1 and 2 shared many proteins, but band 3 contained a number of unique proteins. Surface labeling with 125I demonstrated that bands 1 and 2 contained the majority of the sperm surface protein markers, whereas band 3 contained minor amounts of surface markers. Lectin-binding characteristics of sperm membrane glycoproteins were used to compare the relative distribution of glycosylated proteins in vortexed or sonicated membrane preparations. These characterizations indicate that sonication enhanced the differential distribution of sperm membrane proteins among the density fractions and suggests that this method is preferable for preparation of membrane fractions to be used for identification of proteins that mediate sperm-egg interactions. 相似文献

An antigenic profile of adult Paramphistomum cervi was revealed by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and immunoblotting using sera from cattle naturally infected with P. cervi, Fasciola gigantica and strongylids. SDS-PAGE of whole worm extracts exhibited 26 distinct protein bands. Immunoblotting analysis of these proteins showed five major antigenic bands which were recognized by serum of individual cattle naturally infected with P. cervi. These antigenic proteins had molecular weights ranging from 23 to 116kDa. One antigenic protein with a molecular weight of 52kDa exhibited a consistent reaction with sera from all infected cattle. It's diagnostic sensitivity, specificity and accuracy using this test were 100%, 98% and 98.9%, respectively. The positive and negative predictive values were 97.6% and 100%, respectively. This finding suggests that the 52kDa protein may be a diagnostic antigen for paramphistomosis. 相似文献

Excretory-secretory (ES) products of W. bancrofti and the closely related B. malayi infective larval forms were analysed for their antigenic activity by SDS-PAGE followed by Western blotting as well as by gel elution-sandwich ELISA using filarial serum immunoglobulin-G (FSIgG) as a capture antibody. In W. bancrofti infective larval ES products, the protein molecules of 66, 46, 35, 33, 30 and 14 kDa molecular wt. showed antigenic activity by immuno blotting technique. In sandwich ELISA technique eventhough all SDS-PAGE fractions except ESA 6 (55-47 kDa) showed antigenic positivity, the fractions ESA 8 (37-31 kDa) and ESA 9 (31-25 kDa) showed high reciprocal antigen titre of 262144 and 32768 respectively. In B. malayi infective larval ES products, the protein molecules of 109, 102, 97 and 77 kDa molecular wt. showed reactivity with FSIgG by blotting technique, where as in sandwich ELISA except ESA 7 (47-37kDa), all fractions showed antigenic positivity. However, these fractions failed to show high antigen titre similar to W. bancrofti ES products with FSIgG. 相似文献

Nerve Growth Factor Receptors in Human Neuroblastoma Cells 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:2
Receptors for the nerve growth factor protein (NGFR) present in the human neuroblastoma cell line LAN-1 were characterized. LAN-1 cells display high-affinity (type I, with KD value of 5.9 X 10(-11) M) and low-affinity (type II, with KD value of 9.2 X 10(-9) M) binding to NGF. NGFR were fractionated by preparative isoelectric focusing in a granulated gel (PEGG). High-affinity binding was found in the 5.9-6.2 pH region of the PEGG, and low-affinity binding in the 4.6-4.8 and 8.8-9.3 pH ranges. After further analysis by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) we observed both 92.5- and 200-kDa molecular species associated with NGF binding activity. The 200-kDa protein was found in fractions displaying high-affinity NGF binding and the 92.5-kDa protein in fractions displaying low-affinity NGF binding. Equilibrium binding analysis of NGF in PEGG fractions confirmed the presence of two specific saturable binding sites with KD values similar to those observed for whole dissociated cells. When NGFR II activity from the acidic region of the PEGG chromatogram was incubated with NGFR II from the basic region of the PEGG chromatogram, there was no change in NGF binding or in the number of apparent NGF receptors. However, incubation of these same fractions with a fraction having only NGFR I showed an apparent increase in high-affinity NGF binding and a decrease in low-affinity NGF binding. Immunoprecipitation of this "mixed" fraction and analysis on SDS-PAGE under reduced and nonreduced conditions showed 200-kDa and 92.5-kDa proteins under nonreduced conditions and a 92.5-kDa protein under reduced conditions. Our findings are consistent with the hypothesis that there are two distinct NGF receptors in NGF-responsive cells. The interconvertibility of low- and high-affinity receptors and the possible existence of a modulator type protein or of "silent" type receptors are also in agreement with our findings. 相似文献
