A monoclonal antibody defining a unique mouse neutrophil cell-surface antigen, Gm-3.2, is described. Gm-3.2 is found on all neutrophils in peritoneal exudates and in bone marrow, and is also present on macrophages activated by thioglycolate but is absent from lymphoid, kidney, liver, heart, and red cells. Gm-3.2 is a differentiation antigen of myeloid cells, as granulocyte/macrophage colony-forming cells are Gm-3.2– while mature neutrophils are Gm-3.2+. Strain distribution pattern analysis shows linkage of the Gm-3 locus to the Ly-4, B2m, H-3 complex on chromosome 2. 相似文献

Molecular mapping of gene Gm-6(t) which confers resistance against four biotypes of Asian rice gall midge in China 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
S. K. Katiyar Y. Tan B. Huang G. Chandel Y. Xu Y. Zhang Z. Xie J. Bennett 《TAG. Theoretical and applied genetics. Theoretische und angewandte Genetik》2001,103(6-7):953-961
The Chinese rice cultivar Duokang #1 carries a single dominant gene Gm-6(t) that confers resistance to the four biotypes of Asian rice gall midge (Orseolia oryzae Wood-Mason) known in China. Bulked segregant analysis was performed on progeny of a cross between Duokang #1 and the gall
midge-susceptible cultivar Feng Yin Zhan using the RAPD method. The RAPD marker OPM06(1400) amplified a locus linked to Gm-6(t). The locus was subsequently mapped to rice chromosome 4 in a region flanked by cloned RFLP markers RG214 and RG163. Fine
mapping of Gm-6(t) revealed that markers RG214 and RG476 flanked the gene at distances of 1.0 and 2.3 cM, respectively. Another gall midge
resistance gene, Gm-2, mapped previously to chromosome 4, is located about 16 cM from Gm-6(t), to judge by data from a segregating population derived from a cross between Duokang #1 and the Indian cultivar Phalguna
that carries Gm-2. We developed a PCR-based marker-assisted selection kit for transfer of the Gm-6(t) gene into Ming Hui 63 and IR50404, two parental lines commonly used in hybrid rice production in China. The kit contains
PCR primer pairs based on the terminal sequences of the RG214 and RG476 clones. Polymorphism between Duokang #1 and the hybrid
parental lines was found at these markers after digestion of the PCR products with specific restriction endonucleases. The
kit will accelerate introduction of gall midge resistance into hybrid rice in China.

Enhancement of the expression of a rat neutrophil-specific cell surface antigen by activation with phorbol myristate acetate and concanavalin A 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

A monoclonal antibody against rat neutrophils, RP-1, was produced by hybridizing a mouse myeloma (P3-X63-Ag8.653) with BALB/c mouse spleen cells sensitized with peritoneal neutrophils from Wistar-King-Aptakeman/Hok rats. RP-1 specifically reacted to neutrophils and bone marrow cells from rats of various strains. The expression of an antigen reactive to RP-1 on rat peritoneal neutrophils was enhanced by stimulation with phorbol myristate acetate and concanavalin A. The experimental result that the expression of an antigen reactive with another anti-neutrophil monoclonal antibody was not enhanced by stimulation with phorbol myristate acetate indicates that the antibody-binding capacity of stimulated neutrophils was not nonspecifically enhanced. The enhancement of antigen expression was temperature dependent. A glycolytic inhibitor, 2-deoxy-D-glucose, and an inhibitor of intracellular calcium mobilization, 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoic acid 8-(diethylamino)-octyl ester hydrochloride, which inhibited hydrogen peroxide release from stimulated neutrophils, did not inhibit enhancement of the expression of an antigen reactive with RP-1. 相似文献

The major histocompatibility complex-restricted antigen receptor on T cells: the genetics of expression of an allotype 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

The monoclonal antibody KJ16-133 binds an allelic determinant expressed on the antigen-specific, major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-restricted receptors on approximately 20% of T cells in most mouse strains. The locus controlling the presence or absence of the determinant mapped 9.8 +/- 2.2 centimorgans from the Igk/Ly-2 locus on chromosome 6 in mice, and may be the beta-chain locus. Other genetic loci were identified that controlled the frequency of cells that expressed the allele in positive mice. One of these was the MHC itself, which may control expression of the beta-chain allele by controlling T cell repertoire. The identity of the other, as yet unmapped locus is unknown. KJ16-133 was used to show that T cell receptor gene products are expressed in a manner consistent with allelic exclusion. 相似文献

Bone marrow cells cultured for 5-6 days generate cytotoxic activity against a number of natural killer (NK)-susceptible tumor cells. In this study, these bone marrow cytotoxic cells were compared to cells with NK activity obtained either from spleen cells activated in vitro with interferon (IFN-alpha/beta) or mitogen or from peritoneal exudate cells (PEC) obtained 4 days after bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) infection. Splenic and PEC cytotoxic cells were shown to be Thy 1.2+, NK 1.1+, Asialo GM+1, Lyt 1.2-, Lyt 2.2-. In contrast, bone marrow cytotoxic cells were Thy 1.2+, NK 1.1-, Lyt 1.2-, Lyt 2.2- and expressed low levels of Asialo GM1 antigen (Asialo GM +/- 1). Precursor cells for bone marrow cytotoxic activity were shown to be Thy 1.2-, NK 1.1-, Lyt 1.2-, Lyt 2.2- but also expressed low levels of Asialo GM1 antigen (Asialo GM +/- 1). Cytotoxic activity for both bone marrow and spleen cells peaked in the low-density fractions of discontinuous Percoll density gradients. The cytotoxic activity of these bone marrow cells was augmented by pretreatment with IFN (-alpha/beta, -gamma) or soluble factors (IFN free) from activated EL-4 thymoma cells. Surprisingly, the ability of bone marrow cells to generate high levels of cytotoxic activity following in vitro culture appeared to be associated primarily with mice which were of the H-2b haplotype. 相似文献

A new genetically polymorphic cell surface antigen recognized by a monoclonal rat anti-mouse antibody is expressed on mouse lymphoid cells. Fluorescence analysis on the fluorescence-activated cell sorter (FACS) locates the antigen on thymocytes, lymph node cells, and both T and B cells in the spleen. It also appears on approximately 40% of cells in the bone marrow.Immune precipitations from surface iodinated spleen cells followed by 2-D gel electrophoresis demonstrate that the antigen is a glycoprotein of approximately 100,000 daltons. Since it is expressed in all lymphoid tissues and on both T and B cells, we designate it lymphoid glycoprotein 100 (Lgp100).Strains with Lgp100 include A/J, AKR/J, AKR/Cu, BALB/c, 129/J, CBA/N, C3H/HeJ, CBA/2J, and SJL/J. Strains with no detectable antigen include C57BL/6J, C57BL/10J, C57BR/cdJ, C57L/J, and C58/J. Intercrosses and backcrosses establish a pair of alleles, a positive and a negative one, at a single locus. Heterozygotes display about 50% as much antigen as homozygotes by quantitative membrane immunofluorescence on the FACS. Tests for Lgp100 in 35 recombinant inbred strains from three crosses (CXB, BXB, and BXH) locate this locus on chromosome 1, closely linked to theMls locus. 相似文献

The monoclonal antibody, AGF2.3, was isolated from mice immunised with the human promyeloid cell line HL60. By immunofluorescence and immunoelectron microscopy the antibody was shown to bind to the nuclear envelope in uninduced HL60 cells. Immunofluorescent staining was reduced to very low levels in HL60 cells induced to mature to monocytes or neutrophils by addition of 12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate or dimethyl sulfoxide respectively. Blood neutrophils did not express the antigen. Weak immunofluorescent staining of cell nuclei was observed in peripheral blood lymphocytes and in sections of normal human kidney, tonsil and skin epithelium. The AGF2.3 antigen was strongly expressed on the nuclei of 21/21 haemopoietic cell lines and 21/25 permanent non-haemopoietic cell lines representing various cell types. In contrast, the antigen was not expressed by any of six primary (untransformed) cell cultures. These included fibroblasts, endothelial cells and keratinocytes. The antigen was expressed in the Q10 SV-40 transformed cell line derived from a non-expressing primary fibroblast culture. AGF2.3 antibody precipitated a protein with an apparent subunit molecular weight of approximately 215 kDa from Triton X-100 extracts of HL60 and HeLa cells labelled with 35S-methionine. This protein was not detectable in extracts of primary skin fibroblasts prepared in parallel. We conclude that AGF2.3 antibody recognises a previously undescribed protein associated with the nuclear envelope which is expressed at high levels in most transformed cell lines but which is weakly expressed or absent in normal tissues and primary cell cultures. 相似文献

The CD69 glycoprotein is an early activation antigen of T and B lymphocytes and it is constitutively expressed on thymocytes and platelets. Here we report its presence on neutrophils and on bone marrow-derived myeloid precursors. Indeed, promyelocytic cells are CD69+ on the cell membrane, while in resting neutrophils this molecule is located inside the cell. However, intracellular CD69 molecules are rapidly mobilized to the cell surface upon activation by PMA or fMLP. This translocation is independent on a new protein synthesis, as it is not inhibited by cycloheximide; furthermore, CD69 molecules are likely stored in a trans-Golgi structure since their expression is not affected by brefeldin A, a drug that blocks molecular trafficking from ER to Golgi vesicles. Immunoprecipitation of CD69 molecules either from activated neutrophils or from bone marrow cells showed that this protein has the same molecular size (28-34 kDa) as observed in platelets, T and B lymphocytes, and thymocytes. This similarity is reflected also in the functional role played by this molecule: in neutrophils as well as in lymphocytes and platelets, CD69 stimulation induced Ca2+ influx through cellular membrane; furthermore, the perturbation of the CD69 antigen on PMA-activated neutrophils enhances the lysozyme release, suggesting a role of this molecule in the regulation of granule exocytosis, probably through a Ca(2+)-dependent mechanism. 相似文献

Influenza A virus (IAV) is a leading cause of respiratory tract disease worldwide. Anti-viral CD8+ T lymphocytes responding to IAV infection are believed to eliminate virally infected cells by direct cytolysis but may also contribute to pulmonary inflammation and tissue damage via the release of pro-inflammatory mediators following recognition of viral antigen displaying cells. We have previously demonstrated that IAV antigen expressing inflammatory cells of hematopoietic origin within the infected lung interstitium serve as antigen presenting cells (APC) for infiltrating effector CD8+ T lymphocytes; however, the spectrum of inflammatory cell types capable of serving as APC was not determined. Here, we demonstrate that viral antigen displaying neutrophils infiltrating the IAV infected lungs are an important cell type capable of acting as APC for effector CD8+ T lymphocytes in the infected lungs and that neutrophils expressing viral antigen as a result of direct infection by IAV exhibit the most potent APC activity. Our findings suggest that in addition to their suggested role in induction of the innate immune responses to IAV, virus clearance, and the development of pulmonary injury, neutrophils can serve as APCs to anti-viral effector CD8+ T cells within the infected lung interstitium. 相似文献

BALB/c mice sensitized to herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) develop a vigorous delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) response upon intradermal virus antigen challenge. Although CD4(+) T cells are a key mediator of this response, neutrophils are the most abundant cells at the antigen challenge site both initially and at the peak of the reaction. We investigated what role, if any, neutrophils play in the DTH to a viral antigen. We show here that antibody-mediated depletion of neutrophils 1 day before antigen challenge significantly suppressed ear swelling and markedly reduced cellular influx. Additionally, neutrophil depletion was associated with decreased expression of macrophage inflammatory protein 2 (MIP-2) and MIP-1alpha, as well as with a >60-fold increase in HSV-1 replication. Neutralizing antibodies to neutrophil chemoattractants MIP-2 or MIP-1alpha but not KC significantly suppressed DTH and sharply reduced neutrophil accumulation in the ear pinna. Purified bone marrow-derived neutrophils exposed to interleukin-1alpha (IL-1alpha) produced chemokines in an 8-h assay. Administration of neutralizing antibody to IL-1alpha significantly reduced ear swelling and suppressed the levels of MIP-2, MIP-1alpha, MIP-1beta, and RANTES. We conclude that neutrophils are a critical component of the DTH response to viral antigen. They are recruited to the DTH test site by MIP-2 and MIP-1alpha, where they can be activated by IL-1alpha. The infiltrating cells also help suppress virus replication in immunized mice. 相似文献

Comparison of O2(-)-producing activity of guinea-pig eosinophils and neutrophils in a cell-free system. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

1. The NADPH-dependent superoxide (O2-) production in a cell-free system of guinea-pig eosinophils was studied, comparing the eosinophils with neutrophils. 2. Eosinophils produced 2.2-fold more O2- than neutrophils in sonicated and intact cells. 3. The subcellular fractionation experiments showed that the O2- production was dependent on the cooperation between the membrane and cytosol fractions. 4. The cross-mixing experiments indicated that the NADPH oxidase-activating activity of the eosinophil cytosol was about 2-fold greater than that of the neutrophil cytosol. 5. These results suggest that the difference in the O2(-)-producing activity between eosinophils and neutrophils is associated with the difference in cytosolic factors necessary for the activation of NADPH oxidase. 相似文献

Five blood donors were identified whose HLA-A2 is different from the common HLA-A2. Their A2 molecule (A2.2) had a more basic isoelectric point than normal A2 (A2.1). Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) restricted. by HLA-A2.1, specific for influenza A and Epstein-Barr viruses, failed to lyse virus-infected target cells with HLA-A2.2. Identical patterns were obtained with both viruses. CTL from four of the A2.2-positive donors recognized target cells prepared from others in the group that shared only the HLA-A2.2 antigen. The A2.2 antigen from one donor seemed to be different in that target cells were not recognized by CTL from donors with the normal A2.1 nor with basic A2.2. There seems, therefore, to be heterogeneity within the HLA-A2.2 subtype. 相似文献

In this paper, we characterize the antigen recognized by the monoclonal antibody B73.1 and the modification occurring at the membrane of the positive cells after interaction with the antibody. The B73.1-defined antigen is a protein of 50,000 to 72,000 daltons that is sensitive to pronase but not to trypsin treatment. B73.1 antibody, and its F(ab')2 fragment, directly block, at high concentrations, the binding of IgG antibody-sensitized erythrocytes to the Fc receptors (FcR) of a subpopulation of lymphocytes and neutrophils. B73.1 antibody dissociates rapidly from the positive cells, but concomitant modulation of both B73.1 antigen and FcR is induced when cells are incubated in the continuous presence of antibody or when B73.1 antibody is cross-linked at the cell membrane with an anti-mouse immunoglobulin antiserum. Reaction of lymphocytes with immune complexes also induces modulation of both FcR and B73.1 antigen, without affecting the expression of other antigens on the positive cells. The possibility that the antigen is internalized and digested by the cell after reaction with the antibody is discussed. B73.1 antibody inhibits antibody-dependent cytotoxicity mediated by lymphocytes (K cells) and neutrophils, whereas it does not affect spontaneous cytotoxicity of NK cells. These results suggest the B73.1-defined antigen might be the FcR or a structure closely related to it on K/NK cells. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: A novel monoclonal antibody, anti-4C8, reacted with human peripheral lymphocytes and monocytes but not with neutrophils. In this study, we investigated whether the 4C8 antigen is expressed on human peripheral eosinophils. METHODS: Expression of the 4C8 antigen on eosinophils was analyzed by flow cytometry and molecular analysis of the antigen was performed with eosinophils by Western blotting. RESULTS: Among human peripheral granulocytes, the 4C8 antigen was expressed on CD16-negative cells but not on CD16-positive cells. The 4C8 antigen also appeared to be expressed on eosinophils. To confirm the latter finding, eosinophils were purified from peripheral blood. On flow cytometric analysis, anti-4C8 antibody reacted with purified eosinophils. On Western blotting analysis, anti-4C8 reacted with a single band of 80 kDa in lysates from purified eosinophils. The correlation between the percentage of eosinophils determined by May-Giemsa staining and the percentage of 4C8-positive/CD16-negative cells among granulocytes was good (r = 0.91, P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: Only a few cell surface antigens are available to distinguish human peripheral eosinophils from neutrophils. The novel cell surface antigen, 4C8, is a useful new marker of human eosinophils. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Shed receptors from the surface of white blood cells in whole blood have been quantitated using the long and tedious enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method. A simple rapid flow cytometric method of analysis for shed antigen in the presence of cell-bound antigen can be advantageous. METHODS: Magnetic bead depletion of neutrophils in whole blood with CD16b antibody-conjugated beads as measured by flow cytometric analysis of the remaining cell suspension was inhibited by the presence of soluble CD16b antigen in the blood plasma of normal donors. We describe a competitive binding assay between labeled and unlabeled CD16b antibody for receptors shed from the surface of formed bodies (cells) into solution. Also presented is a new method of obtaining the amount of soluble antigen in a sample. We determine the total unlabeled and labeled ligand concentration at which the fluorescence intensity of the labeled ligand matches the fluorescence intensity in a control run with only the labeled ligand. RESULTS: Normal blood donors showed serum concentration levels of shed CD16b antigen in the range of 1-50 nM as determined by a flow cytometric competitive binding assay. These figures compared favorably with parallel determinations using magnetic bead depletion of targeted neutrophils for washed and unwashed whole blood samples to evaluate the concentration of shed CD16b antigen. CONCLUSIONS: The competitive antibody binding assay for shed and cell-bound CD16b antigen can be applied to similar GPI-linked antigens, for which purified antibody and fluorescent antibody against the same antigenic receptor are available. 相似文献

Antibody blocking studies in the mouse suggest that the MEL-14 antigen is involved in neutrophil-endothelial cell interactions and may be important in neutrophil extravasation to sites of inflammation in vivo. We recently showed that chemotactic factor activation causes a rapid (within minutes) shedding of a large fragment of the MEL-14 antigen from the surface of neutrophils. We report here that chymotrypsin, at low doses (0.1 units/1 x 10(6) cells), but not trypsin, elastase, or collagenase, causes an activation-independent rapid loss (greater than 90%) of the MEL-14 antigen from the surface of murine neutrophils. Under the same treatment conditions chymotrypsin has no effect on the expression of four other neutrophil surface antigens, including the Mac-1 adhesion protein. Chymotrypsin treatment has no effect on neutrophil adhesion to plastic, migration to C5a, regulation of the Mac-1 antigen, but causes a greater than 95% reduction in neutrophil binding to high endothelial venules (HEV) in peripheral lymph nodes measured in the ex vivo frozen section HEV binding assay. The level of inhibition of neutrophil adhesion to HEV was comparable to that seen with the MEL-14 antibody. This experimental system allows us for the first time to specifically examine the consequences of removing the MEL-14 antigen from the surface of neutrophils on function in vivo. We show that treatment with chymotrypsin blocks greater than 85% of the ability of neutrophils injected back into the animal to home to the inflamed peritoneum. In similar in vivo experiments the MEL-14 antibody blocks neutrophil homing by 60-70%. These results further support the importance of the MEL-14 antigen in neutrophil extravasation in vivo and indicate that chymotrypsin could be useful in examining the molecular mechanisms involved in extravasation of leukocytes into a variety of diverse tissue sites of inflammation. 相似文献

Background
Sjögren’s syndrome antigen B is expressed in the nucleus and surface membrane of human polymorphonuclear neutrophils and is released after cell death. However, its biological role is not clear. This study is aimed to investigate the effect of Sjögren’s syndrome antigen B on human polymorphonuclear neutrophils.Methods
Human recombinant Sjögren’s syndrome antigen B (rSSB) purified from E. coli was incubated with human polymorphonuclear neutrophils as well as retinoid acid-induced granulocytic differentiated HL-60 cells, HL-60 (RA). Interleukin (IL)-8 protein production and mRNA expressions were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and quantitative-polymerase chain reaction, respectively. Uptake of fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-rSSB was assessed by flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy. Moreover, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways and nuclear factor-kappaB activation were investigated.Results
Human rSSB stimulated IL-8 production from normal human neutrophils and HL-60 (RA) cells in a time- and dose-dependent manner. This IL-8-stimulated activity was blocked by chloroquine and NH4Cl, indicating that endosomal acidification is important for this effect. We found rSSB activated both MAPK pathway and nuclear factor-kappaB signaling to transcribe the IL-8 gene expression of cells. Furthermore, tumor necrosis factor-α exerted an additive effect and rSSB-anti-SSB immune complex exhibited a synergistic effect on rSSB-induced IL-8 production.Conclusions
Sjögren’s syndrome antigen B might act as an endogenous danger molecule to enhance IL-8 gene expression in human polymorphonuclear neutrophils. 相似文献19.
Isolation and functional characterization of murine T cell lines and clones specific for the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Murine T cell lines responsive to the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi were generated in vitro by stimulating hyperimmune C57BL/6 lymphoid cells with trypomastigote stage antigen. A spleen-derived line designated ST1 and eight clones derived from ST1 were characterized. All lines bear the surface phenotype Thy-1.2+, Ly-1.2+, 2.2- and respond to T. cruzi antigen only in the presence of antigen-presenting cells matched at the I-A subregion of the H2 locus. Clonal specificity analyses indicated that these T. cruzi-selected T cells are species specific and recognize antigenic determinants that are expressed predominantly in the trypomastigote stage. On the basis of their distinct patterns of response to a panel of different T. cruzi strains, clones recognizing strain-specific, shared, or common determinants were identified. Functional studies indicated that ST1 and some but not all of the clones are capable of expressing antigen-specific T helper function in vitro and in vivo. In addition, co-incubation of T. cruzi-specific T cells with cultured T. cruzi-infected syngeneic macrophages led to the dose-dependent destruction of intracellular parasites. Most notably, ST1 and several of the cloned T. cruzi-specific T cell lines were able to passively protect syngeneic recipients from lethal T. cruzi challenge infection. Efforts to identify the parasite antigens recognized by these T cell lines, particularly the protective clones, are currently in progress. 相似文献

Spleen cells from C3H/An mice immunized with spleen cells of C57BL/6-H-2
k
mice were fused with myeloma cell line NS.1. One established hybrid cell line continuously secreted antibody that recognized a new surface antigen provisionally called Ly-m18. The new alloantigen is expressed on 90 percent of thymus cells, 55 percent of spleen cells, and 45 percent of either lymphnode or bone-marrow cells. It is also expressed on cells derived from brain, kidney, and liver. Fifty percent of either peripheral T or B cells express the Ly-m18 antigen, and some tumor cell lines with T, B, pre-B or stem cell characteristics are Ly-m18 (+). The strain distribution pattern distinguishes Ly-m1 8 antigen from all other murine lymphocyte alloantigens. The typing data of two sets of CXB and AKXL recombinant inbred strains indicate that the Ly-m18 gene is linked to the Ltw-2 locus which has not yet been assigned to a chromosome.Abbreviations used in this paper RI
