Direct identification of the murine IL-2 receptor p55-p75 heterodimer in the absence of IL-2 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
The proteins cross-linked to the IL-2R p55 subunit were biochemically compared in distinct cell populations that varied in their capacity to express high affinity IL-2R. We directly cross-linked p75 to p55 in the absence of IL-2 for the cell populations that bear only high affinity IL-2R. Furthermore, although no endogenous IL-2 production was detected, p75 was readily cross-linked to p55 for EL4J-3.4, a p55 transfectant of EL4 that bears high affinity IL-2R. These results strongly suggest that high affinity IL-2R exist as a preformed heterodimer of p55 and p75 which do not require IL-2 for their association. Furthermore, cross-linking of three other proteins of apparent Mr of 100,000, 135,000, and 180,000 to p55 was also seen, raising the possibility of a more complex subunit composition for the IL-2R. 相似文献

The aim of the investigation was to study directly the IL-2 receptor (IL-2 R) and its subunits, p55 and p75 chains, either membrane-bound or soluble, on PBMC of patients with solid malignancies and, indirectly, the same patients’ PBMC ability to produce IL-2. Fifty-eight cancer patients, 29 men and 29 women, were studied: their mean age was 57.3 yr, range 35–79. Twenty-two healthy age-sex-matched subjects served as controls. The tumors were the most common and the most representative among human cancers, i.e., breast, lung, head and neck, digestive tract and liver, prostate and gynecologic cancers: they were generally in advanced stages and in 23 cases metastatic. The PBMC proliferative response to PHA, PHA plus IL-2, and IL-2 was evaluated along with the response to PHA in the presence of anti-p55, anti-p75 monoclonal antibodies, or both. Moreover, membrane-bound IL-2 R (p55 and p75 chains) on PHA-stimulated PBMC was detected, along with soluble IL-2 R in the serum and in the culture supernatants. The conclusions suggest that in solid malignancies: the membrane-bound IL-2 Rs, both p55 and p75 chains, are expressed normally, there is an high serum level of soluble IL-2 R, there is a normal release of soluble IL-2 R in culture, and there is an indirect evidence of a lack of IL-2 production. Therefore, no primary impairment of IL-2 R was found in solid tumors. Moreover, in our study we have found no difference in any parameter studied between patients with and patients without metastases. 相似文献

At least two different receptor molecules have been described that are capable of binding tumor necrosis factor alpha, a cytokine that plays an important role in inflammation and antitumor activity. Comparative analyses at the nucleotide sequence level suggest that these receptors are members of a newly defined protein family that also includes human and rat nerve growth factor receptors. In this study, we determine the chromosome assignments of the human TNF alpha receptor genes, one of which may have evolved as part of a conserved Hox locus-containing chromosome segment. 相似文献

There are two interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R) subunits (p55 and p70/75) on human lymphocytes. Induction of the expressions of these IL-2R subunits was examined by the protein kinase-C (PK-C) activator (phorbol myristate acetate, PMA) and the calcium ionophore, ionomycine (IM). IM induced predominantly p70/75 expression on human T and B cells as indicated by the results of chemical crosslinking studies and binding assays. In contrast, PMA induced p55 expression significantly. These results suggest that the calcium-calmodulin and PK-C pathways regulate p70/75 and p55 expressions differently, and indicate that these intracellular signal messengers could control the responsiveness to IL-2, changing the affinity and number of receptors in vivo. 相似文献

Cyclic AMP directly inhibits IL-2 receptor expression in human T cells: expression of both p55 and p75 subunits is affected. 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Using purified human T lymphocytes stimulated in serum-free media with adhered anti-CD3 + exogenous IL-2, we have shown that elevated [cAMP]i (mimicked by CPT-cAMP or induced by the physiological agonist PGE2) directly inhibits mitogen-induced 1) [3H]thymidine incorporation by PBMC, purified T cells, and isolated CD4+ and CD8+ T cell subpopulations; 2) expression of both high- and low-affinity IL-2 receptors; 3) plasma membrane expression of both p55 and p75 subunits of the IL-2 receptor; and 4) expression of p55 mRNA, but not p75 mRNA. The decrease in p55 mRNA is not due to enhanced mRNA metabolism. We conclude that elevated [cAMP]i, acting directly on T cells, inhibits mitogenesis by decreasing IL-2 receptor expression. We discuss the possible physiological relevance for the multiple stages of T cell activation that are sensitive to elevated [cAMP]i. 相似文献

Unstimulated PBL were examined for expression of IL-2R subunits, IL-2Rp55 and IL-2Rp75, by two-color flow cytometric analyses using mAb. NKH-1+ non-T non-B cells expressed IL-2Rp75 but not IL-2Rp55, and the IL-2Rp75 sites on purified NKH-1+ cells were determined to be 1630 sites/cell by binding of 125I-labeled TU27 mAb specific for IL-2Rp75. In the CD4+ T cell population, IL-2Rp55+ cells were significantly detected, but little or marginally of the IL-2Rp75+ cells. However, IL-2Rp75+ cells were significantly detected, but little of the IL-2Rp55+ cells in the CD8+ T cell population. The IL-2Rp75 sites on CD8+ T cells were estimated at approximate 180-410 sites/cell. In the CD4+ T cells, expression of IL-2Rp75 as well as IL-2Rp55 was induced by stimulation with PHA. IL-2Rp75+ cells, but not IL-2Rp55+ cells, were also detected in the CD14+ monocyte population. In the CD20+ B cell population, a small number of IL-2Rp55+ cells was detected, but little of the IL-2Rp75+ cells. 相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies directed against the human A431 beta 2-adrenergic receptor recognize two major polypeptide chains 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

A serum-albumin-alprenolol conjugate was used to isolate beta-adrenergic receptors from the human A431 cell lysates. Three monoclonal antibodies were obtained from BALB/c mice immunized with these receptors. These antibodies: BRK-1, BRK-2, BRK-3, were respectively of the IgM, IgG2a and IgG3 classes. All three antibodies recognized photoaffinity-labelled receptors, immunoprecipitated ligand-binding activity and identified the 65-kDa and 55-kDa polypeptides corresponding to the beta 2-adrenergic receptors of A431 cells. BRK-2 and BRK-3 recognized both beta 1 and beta 2-adrenergic receptors of several mammalian cells. All three antibodies visualized, by immunofluorescence, the beta 2-adrenergic receptors at the surface of A431 cells. The monoclonal antibodies are directed against the protein portion of the beta-adrenergic receptors since partial or complete removal of the carbohydrate moieties by treatment with endoglycosidase such as endo-F (endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase F) and periodate oxidation did not affect the immunoreactivity. These antibodies will be of value to immunopurify the beta-adrenergic receptors. 相似文献

The aim of the study was to evaluate the subset distribution and the IL-2 R p55–p75 subunit expression on unstimulated and
phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-stimulated (at 3-d) peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), of patients with solid cancers of
different sites. Indeed the expression of the two subunits of IL-2R is an essential prerequisite for The action of the IL-2
on CD8+, CD16+ lymphocytes as effectors in antitumor activity (LAK-cells). The subset distribution (CD3, CD4, CD8, CD16, DR) was assessed
by cytofluorometry with specific monoclonal antibodies (MAbs); the p55 (CD25) and p75 subunit expression was evaluated by
specific MAb (OKT26a and anti-p75). Ninety patients with advanced cancer (mainly non-small cell lung cancer [NSCLC], head
and neck cancer, and gynecological cancer; mean age 55 yr; range 27–80) were studied. Thirty-five age- and sex-matched healthy
subjects were studied as controls. Our data show that there is no significant difference in the subset distribution between
cancer patients and controls. Furthermore, no difference has been found in the expression of p55 subunits on unstimulated
PBMC between cancer patients and controls. No difference has been found in the expression of both p55 and p75 subunits on
PHA-stimulated PBMC between cancer patients and controls. Our results can support the rationale for further clinical trials
with IL-2 in solid malignancies. 相似文献

Interleukin-21 (IL-21) is a type I four-helical bundle cytokine that exerts a variety of significant effects on many hematopoietic cells, including T and B lymphocytes and natural killer cells. IL-21 is produced predominantly by CD4+ T cells and natural killer T cells and, when aberrantly overexpressed, appears to play important roles in a wide variety of autoimmune disorders. To generate potential therapeutic reagents capable of inhibiting IL-21 for clinical use, we immunized human immunoglobulin transgenic mice with IL-21 and then identified and cloned a panel of human anti-human IL-21 binding monoclonal antibodies. IL-21 neutralizing and IL-21-binding, non-neutralizing antibodies were assigned to distinct epitope “bins” based on surface plasmon resonance competition studies. The most potent neutralizing antibodies had extremely high (sub pM) affinity for IL-21 and were able to block IL-21 activity in various biological assays using either an IL-21R-transfected pre-B-cell line or primary human B cells, and their neutralizing activity was, in some cases, superior to that of a soluble form of the high affinity heterodimeric IL-21 receptor. Characterization of this panel of IL-21 antibodies provided the basis for the selection of a therapeutic candidate antibody capable of inhibiting IL-21 activity for the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. 相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) raised against the core proteins of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1; laboratory strain HTLV-IIIB) and HIV-2 (strain ROD) were investigated in a variety of tests, e.g., enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), immunostaining of Western immunoblots, immunofluorescence, immunoprecipitation, and alkaline phosphatase anti-alkaline phosphatase assay. The MAbs were grouped according to their cross-reactions. Seven HIV-1-specific MAbs reacted exclusively with HIV-1, and five showed cross-reactivity with HIV-2 and simian immunodeficiency virus of macaques in ELISA. Four of the 15 MAbs against HIV-2 reacted only with the HIV-2 protein p26. Six showed cross-reactivity with HIV-1, and five showed a broad reaction with all three viruses. Overlapping 30-amino-acid-long peptides derived from the p24 protein sequence of HIV-1 were used in an epitope-mapping system. Three different immunogenic regions (A, B, and C) could be defined. Specific regions where anti-HIV-1 and -HIV-2 MAbs cross-reacted were mapped with shorter oligopeptides. 相似文献

The interaction of recombinant IL-2 with human resting lymphocytes: blocking effects of monoclonal antibodies to IL-2 receptors 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Several lines of evidence suggest that subsets of resting lymphocytes naturally express interleukin-2 receptors (IL-2.R). Recombinant IL-2 (rIL-2) induced the enhancement of natural killer (NK) activity, the generation of activated killer (AK) cells, the proliferation of resting lymphocytes, and the production of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) in lymphocyte cultures. The subsets of lymphocytes mediating these responses appeared to be heterogeneous, but reside predominantly in nylon wool-passed non-T, non-B cells ("null cells" or T3- cells); in response to rIL-2, only Leu 11+T3- cells showed enhanced NK activity, and both Leu 11+T3- and Leu11-T3- cells showed predominantly AK activity, proliferation and production of IFN-gamma. These findings suggest that the T3- fraction (null cell fraction) contains predominantly cells expressing IL-2.R at the resting state. Unlike the case with activated T cells, however, none of these responses was blocked by any of three monoclonal antibodies to IL-2.R, including anti-Tac antibody at any dilution. These results indicate that IL-2.R on the resting T3- cells possess unique biological features compared to those on activated T or B cells. A most likely explanation is that T3- cells possess higher affinity IL-2.R than activated T or B cells. Other possibilities are also discussed. 相似文献

An IL-4-dependent T cell clone (LD8) was isolated from the murine IL-2-dependent cytotoxic T cell line C30.1. This clone has lost the capacity to proliferate in response to IL-2 after long-term culture in IL-4. LD8 cells express the p70, but not the p55, subunit of the IL-2R on their cell surface. The number of p70 IL-2R molecules on LD8 cells is comparable with the number of high-affinity IL-2R on the parental C30.1 cell line. LD8 cells can efficiently internalize IL-2 through the p70 IL-2R subunit. Following stimulation by IL-2, LD8 cells up-regulate p70 IL-2R mRNA, but do not express p55 IL-2R mRNA. IL-2-dependent proliferation of LD8 cells was reconstituted after introduction and expression of a human p55 IL-2R cDNA. To further investigate the role of p70 IL-2R, we have measured IL-2-induced proliferation of C30.1 cells in the presence of three anti-p55 IL-2R mAb (5A2, PC61, and 7D4) that recognize different epitopes. Under the experimental conditions used, the combination of anti-p55 IL-2R mAb prevents the formation of high-affinity IL-2R, but does not affect the binding of IL-2 to p70 IL-2R or IL-2 internalization. However, these three mAb inhibit proliferation of C30.1 cells even in the presence of IL-2 concentrations sufficient to saturate p70 IL-2R. Together these results demonstrate that p70 IL-2R alone is not sufficient to transmit IL-2-induced growth signals and that formation of p55-p70 IL-2R complex is required for IL-2-dependent proliferation of murine T cells. 相似文献

The ability of antibodies to the V3 region and the CD4-binding domain (CD4bd) of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) to act in synergy to neutralize HIV has been demonstrated previously. However, synergy between antibodies to other HIV-1 epitopes has not been studied. We have used 21 combinations of human monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) directed against different epitopes of the gp120 and gp41 proteins of HIV-1 to evaluate their ability to act in synergy to neutralize HIV-1. Combinations of anti-V3 and anti-CD4bd antibodies, anti-V3 and anti-gp120 C-terminus antibodies, anti-CD4bd and anti-C-terminus antibodies, anti-V3 and anti-gp41 antibodies, and anti-CD4bd and anti-gp41 antibodies were tested. Our results show that some, but not all anti-V3 antibodies can act in synergy with anti-CD4bd antibodies. In addition, for the first time, antibodies to the C-terminus region have been found to act in synergy with the anti-CD4bd antibodies. Various anti-CD4bd MAbs also act in synergy when used together. The use of such cocktails of human MAbs for passive immunization against HIV-1 may prove to be important for therapy in postexposure settings and for prevention of maternal-fetal transmission of the virus. The results also provide information on the types of antibodies that should be elicited by an effective vaccine. 相似文献

Stabilization of the amplification convertase of complement by monoclonal antibodies directed against human factor B 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Three IgM mouse monoclonal antibodies (MoAb), 5B5-A, 2D2-B, and 5B12-A, were prepared by fusion of spleen cells from mice immunized with human B with the SP 2/0 myeloma cell line. They were assessed for their effect on cell-bound and fluid-phase amplification convertases of complement (C) with purified proteins in vitro. 5B5-A and 2D2-B were similar in their effects on cell-bound preformed C3bBb in that they bound to cell-bound C3bBb, stabilized the C3bBb convertase, and rendered the C3bBb convertase relatively resistant to the plasma protein H. These two MoAb were also able to enhance C3 consumption in vitro in reaction mixtures containing C3b, C3, B, and D. At the same time, they presumably stabilized the C3 convertase and caused relative sparing of B hemolytic activity in the reaction mixtures. In contrast, 5B12-A, which also bound to Bb and C3bBb, did not induce any stabilization, but rather caused accelerated decay of cell-bound C3bBb. These results indicate that MoAb against B can have C3NeF-like activity. On the other hand, not all MoAb against B have stabilizing activity on the C3bBb convertase. 相似文献

Serum samples from 26 normal volunteers were evaluated by isotype-specific ELISA for the presence of IgG and IgM antibodies directed at IgA. Although there were wide variations in antibody levels, anti-IgA antibodies of both isotypes were found in all individuals tested. The anti-IgA activity was detected against a variety of polymeric and monomeric IgA1 and IgA2 myeloma proteins containing both kappa and lambda light chains. By using Fab and Fc fragments generated by incubation of an IgA1 myeloma protein with IgA1 protease, it was shown that the anti-IgA activity was specific for the Fab portion of the IgA molecule. It was also demonstrated that the serum of two individuals contained both IgG and IgM activity directed at autologous affinity-purified IgA. IgM antibody levels against both whole IgA and Fab of IgA were significantly higher than IgG antibody levels. Cells producing anti-IgA antibodies of both isotypes were detected in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated human spleen. 相似文献

We recently identified a series of indole derivatives as active inhibitors of IN-LEDGF/p75 interaction through structure-based pharmacophore models generated from the crystal structure of dimeric catalytic core domain (CCD) of HIV-1 IN in complex with the LEDGF integrase binding domain (IBD). In this paper we used the fragment hopping approach to design small molecules able to prevent the IN-LEDGF/p75 interaction. By means of the proposed approach, we designed novel non-peptidyl compounds that mimic the biological function of some IBD residues and in particular the LEDGF hot spot residues Ile365 and Asp366. The biological results confirmed the importance of several structural requirements for the inhibitory effects of this class of compounds. 相似文献

Since some cytokines effectively enhance the cytotoxicity of monoclonal antibodies, we investigated whether a combination of cytokines can augment the antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) of monoclonal antibodies 17-1A and BR55-2 against the colorectal carcinoma cell line HT29. Since monocytes/macrophages are important effector cells for ADCC, we used a new flow cytometric cytotoxicity assay, which allows the analysis of long-term-ADCC exerted by these cells. In our previous studies with peripheral blood mononuclear cells from normal donors, we found that IL-2, IL-12 and IFN-alpha increase ADCC. Therefore, we examined whether combination of these three cytokines with IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, IFN-alpha, IFN-gamma, GM-CSF, M-CSF and TNF-alpha may yield higher ADCC than obtained by the application of single cytokines. Indeed, we found that the combinations IL-2/IFN-alpha, IL-2/IL-12 and IL-12/IFN-alpha potentiated ADCC. Interestingly, the ineffective single cytokines TNF-alpha and GM-CSF in the combinations IL-2/TNF-alpha, IFN-alpha/TNF-alpha and IFN-alpha/GM-CSF also proved to enhance ADCC. In contrast, IL-4 significantly suppressed the IL-2, IL-12 and IFN-alpha-induced ADCC. In addition, the immunosuppressive cytokine IL-10 in higher concentrations significantly suppressed the IL-12-induced-ADCC. Our results may be useful to find combinations of cytokines and mAb for the treatment of cancer. 相似文献

Four anti-human beta 2-microglobulin monoclonal antibodies were produced against whole lymphoid cells or against urinary beta 2-microglobulin. Their reactivity was fully inhibited by purified soluble beta 2-microglobulin. The B1.1G6, C23.24.2, and B2.62.2 antibodies bound either to free or to HLA-complexed beta 2m. They recognized the same or very close determinants, since they achieved mutual blocking. In contrast, the C21.48A1 antibody did not bind to the cell surface and did not recognize the same determinant on the purified beta 2-microglobulin molecule as the others. It was able to bind and to form a specific complex with membrane beta 2-microglobulin only, once separated from the HLA heavy chain. These data strongly suggest that the C21.48A1 antigenic determinant might be hidden when the beta 2-microglobulin is complexed with the HLA heavy chains at the cell surface. 相似文献
