Anti-RNA polymerase I antibodies: potential role in the induction and progression of murine lupus nephritis 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Antibodies against RNA polymerase I were detected in plasma and kidney eluates of NZB/W mice. Plasma concentrations of the antibodies were the highest in mice with incipient nephritis and the lowest in mice with progressive nephritis. Mice with attenuated nephritis due to immunosuppressive therapy had intermediate plasma concentrations of the antibodies. The specific concentrations (ng/microgram IgG) of anti-RNA polymerase I antibodies in kidney eluates were significantly (10- to 70-fold) greater than the corresponding plasma concentrations. These results indicated that the decreased plasma concentration of the antibodies in mice with more advanced disease was at least partially due to selective concentration of anti-RNA polymerase I antibodies in the kidneys. The degree of this selective concentration was directly proportional (R2 = 0.9962) to the severity of renal disease, as reflected by the concentration (microgram/g tissue) of IgG eluted from the kidneys. The concentration (microgram/g tissue) of anti-RNA polymerase I eluted from the kidneys also was increased in mice with more severe renal disease. Further, the extent of this increase was greater than that of total IgG, again suggesting that anti-RNA polymerase I antibodies had been selectively concentrated in the kidneys. These findings are strongly suggestive of an important role for the RNA polymerase I/anti-RNA polymerase I antibody system in the pathogenesis of murine lupus nephritis. 相似文献

Human tonsil lymphocytes were stimulated with diphtheria toxoid and then cultured in a Marbrook culture system so that antibodies could be measured in the culture supernatant. Specific antibodies were measured with excess radiolabeled antigen and antisera specific for each immunoglobulin class. Good IgG and IgA diphtheria antitoxin responses have been obtained and responding culture supernatants were shown to neutralize toxin. The relationship between antitoxin response in vitro and immunization of donors with toxoid was investigated. It was found that at least two immunizations after the age of 6 months were necessary to prime the tonsils for an in vitro antibody response. The IgG and IgA in culture supernatants were demonstrated by immunodiffusion and were measured by radioimmunoassay. By sucrose density gradient ultracentrifugation, it was shown that 40% of the IgA produced in the cultures was greater than 7S. Evidence was obtained that neither the IgA nor the specific IgA antitoxin bears secretory piece. It appears that human lymphocytes from tonsils produce polymer IgA in vitro without secretory piece. 相似文献

Escherichia coli 3H-tRNA and MS2 phage 125I-RNA were prepared and used in a sensitive nitrocellulose filter assay. Antibodies that bound these RNA ligands occurred in the sera of several patients with SLE, but not in sera of patients with other connective tissue diseases. The antibody populations that bound polyribonucleotides (largely IgG) were distinct from antibody populations that bound polydeoxyribonucleotides. Competition experiments showed that the anti-RNA antibodies preferentially bound native ssRNA as compared with synthetic single and double stranded polyribonucleotides. There was increasing affinity with increasing m.w. of the ssRNA. The anti-tRNA population was of restricted heterogeneity (Sips index 0.83) and bound tRNA with an average association constant (Ko) of 9 x 10(6) l/mole at 4 degrees C. The anti-MS2 RNA population was much more heterogeneous (Sips index 0.67) and bound MS2 RNA with a Ko of about 3 x 10(9) l/mole at 4 degrees C. Whereas NZB/NZW mice spontaneously produce RNA reactive antibodies with conformation specificity for native tRNA, human SLE anti-RNA antibodies appear to have very little of this type of conformation specificity. 相似文献

Interference with Fc signals increases an antibody response by T-cell-deprived cultures to a T-dependent antigen 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Affinity column purified goat anti-mouse immunoglobulin antibodies specific for the Fc portion of IgG increased an in vitro antibody response to a T-dependent antigen when T cells were limiting. Picogram amounts of specific anti-Fc antibody at culture initiation and nanogram quantities up to 3 days were required to demonstrate this effect. The demonstration of reconstitution by anti-Fc antibodies requires that the cultures be T-cell depleted and stimulated by antigen. These results support the concept that anti-Fc antibody and T cells block endogenously generated negative Fc signals. 相似文献

In this paper an in vitro culture system for the induction of an antibody response to the Haemophilus influenzae type b polysaccharide (PRP) is described. Anti-PRP IgM and IgG antibody-secreting cells (ASC) and anti-diphtheria toxoid (DT) IgG ASC were detected in cultures of blood B and T cells derived from donors 4 to 6 wk after immunization with Haemophilus influenzae type b oligosaccharide-mutant diphtheria toxin (CRM197) conjugate (HbOC) and required in vitro restimulation with HbOC. When lymphocytes from HbOC-vaccinated donors were stimulated with PRP, anti-PRP IgM and IgG ASC could be detected in 50% offGe cases. Lymphocytes from PRP-vaccinated donors or non-vaccinated donors consistently failed to generate anti-PRP antibodies after in vitro stimulation with HbOC. Optimal in vitro responses were observed at concentrations of 0.06 to 0.6 micrograms/ml of Ag. At higher doses of Ag (6 micrograms/ml) anti-PRP and anti-DT antibody responses were suppressed. The in vitro generation of anti-PRP and anti-DT ASC, as detected by a spot-forming cell assay was shown to be T cell dependent, Ag dependent, and Ag specific. This culture system provides a model for the study of human B cell activation and immunoregulation by polysaccharide-protein conjugates and polysaccharides. 相似文献

Cultures of Bordetella pertussis from phases of exponential growth, retarded growth and from stationary phase were obtained during periodic dynamic cultivation. Preparations for intravenous immunization of rabbits were made from these cultures. Levels of IgG to pertussis toxin, cell walls preparations from 12 bacterial species, 4 organo-specific antigens, and 7 organospecific human antigens were measured in obtained sera. It was shown that higher levels of IgG to pertussis toxin were found in sera of rabbits immunized with cultures from exponential growth phase whereas decrease of this level in 8 times was observed in sera of rabbits immunized with cultures from retarded growth phase or end of stationary phase. After immunization with culture from exponential growth phase increase of IgG levels to cross-reactive antigens was not observed compared to levels of these antibodies in control sera obtained before immunization. After immunization with cultures from retarded growth phase or end of stationary phase increase of IgG levels to preparations of cell walls of Staphylococcus aureus, S. epidermidis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, to denaturated DNA, elastin, and renal and liver microsomal fractions was detected compared to control sera. Described data can substantiate usefulness of obtaining the most specific diagnostic sera and test-systems using cultures of B. pertussis from the phase of exponential growth. 相似文献

Batch cultures of mouse-mouse hybridoma cell lines were carried out and their growth and production kinetics investigated. Three main cell specific production patterns (expressed as pg IgG/cell x hour) were found, which can be used as a classification system for hybridoma cell lines (groups I–III). Cells showing the highest IgG-production at the beginning of the batch culture (during the lag and the onset of the log-phase) were classified as either group I and II. The difference was that cell lines of group II showed a second high cell specific production at the onset of the stationary and death phases. Cell lines of group III had a quite constant production of antibodies during their growth; but IgG secretion completely stopped after the beginning of the stationary phase. The implications of these three production patterns on the design of a production process are discussed. 相似文献

It has been demonstrated that IgG antibodies can be generated to self-antigen peptides as well as against viral antigens
by an antigen-specific in vitro immunization system of resting human peripheral B-lymphocytes. Using a synthetic peptide from
the consensus variable tandem-repeat region of the MUC3 mucin (TSSITTTGTTSHSTPSP) as the B cell epitope, we immunized blood
donor B-lymphocytes in vitro and tested for MUC3-specific antibodies by ELISA. After the primary activation step all antibodies
were IgM. At the end of the secondary immunization step we obtained 1.8% (21/1138) of the cultures with IgG-switched antibodies.
In a competitive inhibition ELISA using the MUC1, MUC2, MUC3, MUC4 and PIP2 peptides, only one culture (F8.1) gave satisfactory
specific inhibition. Using this antibody in fluorometric studies, it stained cells from two colon carcinoma cell lines predominantly
in the cytoplasm, whereas those from a breast cancer cell line stained predominantly the cell surface. In a preliminary immunohistological
evaluation with formalin-fixed sections, the antibody appeared to moderately stain colon sections, but not breast sections
or lymph node. This method of in vitro immunization may be a useful tool in generating IgG antibodies specific to self-antigens
and could find applications in tumour targeting and immunotherapy.

Combinations of T and B lymphocytes from normal individuals booster immunized 14–30 days previously with a combination of diphtheria and tetanus toxoids, synthesized IgG antitetanus toxoid, and IgG antidiphtheria toxoid antibodies when stimulated by pokeweed mitogen in vitro. The addition of 5 μg of soluble tetanus toxoid to the cultures during the first 2 days incubation resulted in greater than 90% suppression of the subsequent production of IgG antitetanus toxoid antibodies. The synthesis of IgM antitetanus toxoid antibodies, total IgG, total IgM, and IgG antidiphtheria toxoid antibodies were unaffected. Similarly, the addition of 5 μg of soluble diphtheria toxoid suppressed the synthesis of IgG antidiphtheria toxoid antibodies with no effect on the synthesis of IgG antitetanus antibodies. Allogeneic combinations of B and T lymphocytes were capable of mediating the suppression, and irradiation of the T cells caused only a partial and variable reversal of the suppression. The antigen-induced specific suppression of antibody synthesis could not be demonstrated in cultures stimulated with soluble T-cell-derived helper factors. 相似文献

Black raspberry necrosis virus (BRNV) reaches only very low concentrations in herbaceous plants and is difficult to maintain in culture. However, in a mixed culture with an unrelated virus, Solanum nodiflorum mottle (SNMV), in the genus Sobemovirus, the concentration of BRNV particles increases about 1000‐fold. In attempts to produce monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to BRNV for diagnostic use, purified virus particles from the mixed virus culture were used as immunogen and the resultant antibodies screened against cultures of SNMV alone, BRNV+SNMV and healthy plant extracts. None of the virus‐specific MAbs obtained in this way was specific to BRNV but six were specific to SNMV. Although the original objective was not achieved, the SNMV MAbs were characterised and used to study serological properties of SNMV and other Sobemoviruses. Characterisation of the six SNMV MAbs showed that four were IgG3, one IgG1 and the other IgG2b. SNMV was detected by all six MAbs in ELISA, by five in Western blotting, by three in agarose gel double diffusion tests, but only one was suitable for trapping virus particles in immuno‐electron microscopy (IEM). In Western blotting using virus in sap extracts of Nicotiana clevelandii, each of the five MAbs detected a single major band of Mc. 31 000 in sap containing SNMV, and additional bands of lower mass attributed to degradation of coat protein. In various serological tests, no cross‐reactions were detected between SNMV and seven other viruses from the genus Sobemovirus. However, in IEM but not in Western blotting, significant cross‐reactions were observed between SNMV and Velvet tobacco mottle virus, another species from the genus Sobemovirus. The significance of these different findings is discussed. 相似文献

This report presents a new approach that by-passes booster immunizations with tetanus toxoid (TT) before in vitro studies of antibody (Ab) production. The methodology for optimal TT-induced synthesis of specific IgG anti-tetanus toxoid Ab (IgG anti-TT) by peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from randomly selected TT immune individuals without recent booster immunizations is described. PBMC from most normal immune subjects could be repeatedly induced to produce in vitro IgG anti-TT; PBMC from subjects with high TT titers are not required for this new approach. This approach uses high cell concentrations in multiple replicate microcultures and TT washout to obtain optimal IgG anti-TT synthesis. Washed cultures produced more Ab than nonwashed cultures (p less than or equal to 0.005). The readdition of TT (2.5 to 250 ng/ml) to the culture media after washout of TT on day 4 suppressed specific Ab formation, whereas diphtheria toxoid added at comparable doses did not inhibit specific Ab formation. Suppression of antibody synthesis mediated by T cells could be induced by TT per se, and was not due to binding of synthesized Ab to TT in the latter 8 days of culture. In addition, suppression could not be induced in the first 4 days of culture by IgG anti-TT, IgG, or IgM. This approach permits the analysis of antigen-specific regulatory circuits in the steady and activated immune states, and the evaluation of in vivo and in vitro effects of biologic response modifiers on specific Ab production. 相似文献

The feasibility of large scale production of human anti-tetanus toxoid monoclonal antibody for therapeutic use was evaluated using a human heterohybridoma. The effects of duration of subculture, transition from static to agitated culture conditions and the level of serum concentration were studied. The level of antibody secreted by the clone decreased with increasing length of subculture and decreasing serum concentration. The clone exhibited heterogeneity in expression of surface IgG after 2 or 7 weeks of subculture in static culture conditions irrespective of the serum concentration. However, a prolonged duration of subculture (9 weeks) in 3% serum medium had an effect on the expression of surface IgG both in static and agitated culture conditions. With respect to total (surface and intracellular) IgG, two distinct cell populations were observed. On long term subculture (9 weeks) in low serum medium (3% FCS), there was a decrease in the population which was the high synthesizer. In addition, when these cells were cultivated in agitated spinner flasks, a defect in secretion of antibodies was observed. Thus a general fall in the amount of antibody in the supernatant of agitated cultures was due to decrease in antibody synthesis as well as the defect in secretion of antibodies. 相似文献

Full-length antibodies and antibodies that ferry a cargo to target cells are desired biopharmaceuticals. We describe the production of full-length IgGs and IgG-toxin fusion proteins in E. coli. In the presented examples of anti CD30 and anti EGF-receptor antibodies, the antibody heavy and light chains or toxin fusions thereof were expressed in separate bacterial cultures, where they accumulated as insoluble inclusion bodies. Following refolding and purification, a high yield (up to 50 mg /L of shake flask culture) of highly purified (>90%) full-length antibodies and antibody-toxin fusions were obtained. The bacterially produced antibodies, named "Inclonals," equaled the performance of the same IgGs that were produced using conventional mammalian cell culture in binding properties as well as in cell killing potency. The rapid and cost effective IgG production process and the high quality of the resultant product may make the bacterial production of full-length IgG and IgG-drug fusion proteins an attractive option for antibody production. and a significant contribution to recombinant antibody technology. 相似文献

Site specific glycosylation of immunoglobulin G (IgG) occurs at Asn297 in the Fc region. The heterogeneous ensemble of glycoform occurs due to the degree of terminal galactosylation and sialylation, and these differences in glycosylation affect both the pharmacokinetic behavior and effector functions of the IgG, such as complementdependent cytotoxicity (CDC) and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). In this study, the differential glycosylation of IgG was compared and environmental physical and chemical parameters were evaluated in an attempt to promote glycosylation of recombinant antibodies, thereby creating more humanized glycoform antibodies and increasing their in vivo efficacy as therapeutic drugs. It was shown that cells at late stationary growth phase in batch cultures, cells with increased passage number, and the culture conditions of lowered temperature and pH promoted galactosylation and sialylation of antibodies. Galactose, fructose and mannose were found to elicit galactosylation and sialylation when they were used alone as a substitute of glucose. Mannose showed synergistic effects on glycosylation when used with other sugars, such as glucose and galactose. However when fructose was used with other sugars, the degree of galactosylation mechanism appeared to be decreased. These results support understandings of the glycosylation mechanisms in glycoprotein, particularly recombinant antibodies for therapeutics. 相似文献

RiV is mainly represented by characteristic exosome‐like particles with a diameter of 30 to 70 nm. RiV particle preparations (RiV‐PP) contain identified proteins. In the present paper, the authors started an evaluation of the hypothesis, that RiV‐reactive antibodies, detected in patient sera by an indirect ELISA, may be used for the diagnosis of pathologic cell proliferations. On the basis of the frequency distribution curve of about 500 blood donor sera, cut‐off values for RiV‐reactive IgG and IgM antibodies could be defined. Additionally it was found that 1.6 % of blood donor sera reacted strongly with an RiV‐PP (of calf kidney cells) for IgG antibodies. 29 % of cancer patient sera (n = 48), 17 % of 53 patients with endoprothetics and with lung disorders, 44.3 % of 115 patient sera of a doctor's practice and 28 % of 97 sera of 10 to 11 years old schoolchildren were positive in the anti‐RiV ELISA with IgG antibodies. About half of the selected group of schoolchildren contained different autoantibodies and some of these children displayed already insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (as shown by others). A correlation of our ELISA results with the other autoimmune antibody results was not found. Using RiV‐PP as an antigen complex, isolated from calf kidney cell cultures or from human FL cell cultures and HeLa cell cultures, results with small differences between human and animal RiV origin were obtained. Using the human RiV, the number of positive sera was not significantly lower. Generally, the anti‐RiV ELISA, using RiV‐PP from human cell cultures, detect autoantibodies against RiV‐specific proteins. This assay may detect, but not diagnose pathologic cell proliferation. The possibilities of RiV ELISA for diagnostics of defined autoimmune diseases, as well as further studies and the more meaningful RiV immunoblot are discussed. 相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies with specificity for three different serotypes of Marek's disease viruses in chickens 总被引:19,自引:0,他引:19
A total of 50 antibody-secreting hybridoma cells against Marek's disease virus (MDV) and turkey herpesvirus (HVT) have been produced. Eleven hybridomas were used for serotyping a panel of 15 pathogenic and nonpathogenic strains of MDV and HVT, representing three serotypes. The antibodies from the culture medium have fluorescence antibody (FA) titers of up to 100 and those from mouse ascitic fluid have titers ranging from 10(4) to 10(6). Monoclonal antibody T81 is type-common, i.e., it reacts at equal titer with all MDV and HVT tested. Of the remaining 10 antibodies, eight react only with pathogenic and attenuated strains of MDV (presumably serotype 1), one reacts only with nonpathogenic MDV (presumably) serotype 2), and one reacts only with strains of HVT (presumably serotype 3). Two hybridomas belong to IgG2a and IgG2b subclasses, respectively, and the remaining nine belong to IgG1 subclass. None of the antibodies specific for MDV strains reacted with homologous viruses in serum neutralization (SN), agar gel precipitin (AGP), or membrane immunofluorescence tests. Antibody L78, which is specific for HVT, was reactive with its homologous virus in the SN test; antibody from the culture medium showed an SN titer of 10 and that from mouse ascites a titer of 10,000. None of the antibodies specific for MDV or HVT reacted with other avian or mammalian herpesviruses, avian leukosis viruses (ALV), reticuloendotheliosis viruses (REV), or Marek's disease tumor-associated surface antigen (MATSA) expressed in a lymphoblastoid cell line, MDCC-MSB-1. 相似文献

Choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) from porcine brain was purified by immunoaffinity chromatography, and the highly purified enzyme was subsequently used for immunization of mice and rabbits. After fusion of mouse spleen cells, 32 cultures producing monoclonal antibodies directed against ChAT were detected by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) with immunoaffinity-purified ChAT. Of these original 32, the most active 11 cultures were cloned and used for ascites production. The 11 clones generated monoclonal antibodies of the immunoglobulin (Ig) M class (three), the IgG1 subclass (seven), and the IgG2b subclass (one). The isoelectric points of the antibodies of the IgG class were different in each case. The monoclonal antibodies exhibited different binding characteristics in the above ELISA and on western blots. Two monoclonal antibodies demonstrated excellent immunohistological results with neurons of rat brain and spinal cord. One of them reacted well immunohistochemically with neurons of human brain and also recognized partially purified human placenta ChAT in the ELISA. 相似文献

In searching for ways to manipulate heterogeneous hybridoma cell cultures (ATCC HB124) to obtain increased production of monoclonal antibodies (IgG2a), we have selected for a higher secreting but slower growing subpopulation using the level of fluorescent surface-associated antibodies and a fluorescence-activated cell sorter. Cell surface fluorescence was found to be correlated with specific antibody secretion rate over the short term but not with intracellular antibody content. Also, the specific secretion rate of a heterogeneous population of hybridoma cells grown in batch culture has been shown to be inversely correlated with an increase in either the initial cell concentration or the medium antibody concentration. Several experiments suggest that an upper limit exists for medium antibody concentration, above which antibody is degraded at the same rate at which it is produced. Should other cell lines behave similarly, strategies for overproduction of monoclonal antibodies suggested herein could be profitably used in industry. 相似文献

Sera from four bowhead whales (Balaena mysticetus L.) were examined for the presence of specific antibodies, and tissue and swab samples from six and four animals respectively were processed for isolation of viruses and for initiation of bowhead whale cell cultures. All sera were negative for antibodies to nine serovars of Leptospira interrogans and to 21 orthomyxovirus subtypes and a paramyxovirus (Newcastle disease virus). All sera were positive, however, for neutralizing antibodies to one or more calicivirus serotypes. Two untyped adenoviruses were isolated from colon samples of two different whales, but neutralizing antibodies to the agents could not be demonstrated in any sera. Three primary bowhead whale cell cultures were derived from kidney (two cultures) and testis (one culture), from three individual whales. 相似文献
