A substantial fraction of human cord blood and peripheral blood lymphocytes have recently been shown to bear IgD. Although IgD has not been identified in mice, it has been suggested that it is also a major surface immunoglobulin of murine lymphocytes. Thus, lactoperoxidase-catalyzed iodination of surface immunoglobulin of mouse spleen and lymph node cells reveals the existence of an IgH chain differing from mu, gamma, and alpha-chain both antigenically and by mobility on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. This new H chain class has been previously proposed to be the mouse homologue of delta-chain. In this paper, we analyzed human, mouse, guinea pig, and rabbit lymphoid cell membrane Ig by lactoperoxidase-catalyzed iodination, extraction with non-ionic detergent precipitation with a variety of specific anti-Ig sera, and electrophoresis of dissolved reduced precipitates on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels. Our studies confirm the previous reports of a new mouse cell membrane H chain with a mobility more rapid than that of mu-chain. However, we fail to detect a molecule with this electrophoretic mobility on the surface of guinea pig or rabbit lymph node and spleen cells. Moreover, neither anti-kappa nor anti-delta antibody precipitates a molecule with an H chain of this mobility from labeled extracts of human cord blood or peripheral blood lymphocytes. Cell surface delta was identified on both human cord blood and peripheral blood lymphocytes, but it proved to have mobility similar to human and mouse mu-chain. This result indicates either that mouse delta-chain has an electrophoretic mobility on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels which differs appreciably from that of human membrane delta-chain or that the newly described mouse H chain is not the homologue of human delta-chain.  相似文献

Rat monoclonal antibodies (MAb) directed to mouse Ig heavy and light chain determinants were produced. A rat anti-mouse light chain MAb (RAMOL-1) which bound to all (24/24) mouse Ig of the kappa light chain type and with varying strength to 4/4 lambda light chain-bearing Ig was evaluated as a general secondary reagent, together with two MAb that bound to the heavy chain of mouse IgG. They were conjugated with biotin or FITC and used in immunohistochemical and immunofluorescence assays to detect mouse monoclonal antibodies binding to antigens expressed in rat and human tissues and cells. As compared to commercially available polyclonal reagents, RAMOL-1 gave higher staining contrast by showing lower background staining and equal or higher staining of the primary MAb tested. This was a result of two main effects. First, crossreactivity with endogenous Ig and tissue type-specific determinants was eliminated. With polyclonal anti-mouse Ig reagents, binding to endogenous Ig was noted in vascular spaces and on Ig-bearing cells, and to rat gastric mucosa and epithelial tumor tissue in frozen tissue sections, even when diluted in high concentrations of serum homologous to the tissue. Second, binding of the secondary reagent was reduced to cells and tissues prone to have high nonspecific binding capability, such as monocytes/macrophages and formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue. Owing to unlimited and reproducible access to this homogeneous reagent, RAMOL-1 is used as second antibody to standardize the procedure used for immunohistochemical grading of human malignant tumors by determination of blood group antigen expression detected with mouse MAb.  相似文献

Evidence for an IgD homologue on chicken lymphocytes   总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14  
Chicken lymphocyte membrane immunoglobulins (Ig), were precipitated with mouse monoclonal antibodies specific for heavy and light chain isotypes and analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Very little or no membrane-bound IgG and IgA was detected. After sequential precipitation and removal of IgM reactive with any of three monoclonal anti-mu antibodies, anti-light chain antibody precipitated residual Ig with a relative electrophoretic mobility similar to that of IgM. Under reducing conditions, these surface Ig molecules had a heavy chain that appeared slightly larger (approximately 81,000 daltons) than mu-chain (approximately 79,000 daltons), and light chains of approximately 25,000 daltons. Complete clearance of membrane-bound IgM reactive with an anti-mu allotype antiserum left similar molecules precipitate by monoclonal anti-light chain antibody. These non-IgM molecules could be detected on the surface of lymphocytes from blood, spleen, bursa and the B cell line RAV-1, but not from thymus or blood from an agammaglobulinemic chicken. After capping of B cell surface IgM with anti-mu, immunofluorescent staining with anti-light chain antibody revealed residual Ig molecules disturbed across the surface of more than 90% of the IgM-bearing cells. The data suggest the existence of an avian homologue of mammalian IgD. Affinity-purified goat anti-mu antibodies and a fourth monoclonal anti-mu antibody reacted with both IgM and the putative IgD molecules, which suggests that the IgD homologue shares at least one common determinant with chicken IgM.  相似文献

Immunoglobulin (Ig) b4 allotypic determinants are detected on the surface membrane of rabbit peripheral blood lymphocytes by an indirect immunoferritin labeling technique. Cells coated with antiallotype antibodies are labelled with soluble complexes of ferritin and rabbit antiferritin of a given allotype. At 0 °C a patchy distribution of labeled surface immunoglobulin is visualized on 80% of the lymphocytes examined. Warming of the cells for 1–5 min at 37 °C causes rapid endocytosis of surface label in a perinuclear fashion. Cap formation is not observed. Cross-linking of immunoferritin labelled surface determinants with sheep anti-rabbit Ig (SARG) inhibits endocytosis and promotes aggregation of small surface patches. Indirect evidence suggests that sloughing and/or stripping of labelled surface Ig can occur after this aggregation. These surface changes may be the first step in the induction of lymphocyte activation.  相似文献

Thirteen monoclonal antibodies that react with monomorphic determinants on the HLA-A,B,C-beta 2-microglobulin (beta 2m) molecule were characterized. Analysis of antibody activity included inhibition by papain-solubilized HLA antigens and free beta 2m, antibody binding to mouse-human somatic cell hybrids containing human chromosome 6 or 15, and antibody cross-reactivity with lymphocytes from nonhuman species. Two criteria for monomorphism were established: 1) equal inhibition or absorption of antibody activity by all papain-solubilized HLA antigens or cell lines of different HLA specificities tested; and 2) nonpolymorphic cross-reactivity within another species or subspecies. On the basis of soluble antigen inhibition and binding to somatic cell hybrids, 3 classes of antibodies were detected: anti-beta 2m, anti-heavy chain, and anti-complex (against a combinatorial determinant formed by heavy chain and beta 2m). Antibody cross-reaction patterns in nonhuman species were suggestive that these monomorphic antibodies detect a limited number of determinants, minimally one on each chain and 2 combinatorial determinants. Examination of the known primary sequences for HLA-A2, HLA-B7, H-2Kb, and mouse, rabbit and human beta 2m provides a molecular explanation for this limited mouse anti-HLA monomorphic antibody activity.  相似文献

Normal rat and mouse lymphoid cells were incubated at 0°–4°C for 1 h with purified rabbit or sheep antirat (mouse) immunoglobulin (Ig)-horseradish peroxidase (PO) conjugates or with Fab fragments of antibody coupled with peroxidase. Cells were subsequently washed and incubated in fresh medium, without labeled antibody or Fab fragments for 5–30 min at 20° or 37°C. With the use of the diaminobenzidine (DAB) method, distribution of peroxidase was studied in the light and electron microscopes. Fab fragments of antirat Ig antibody were iodinated with 125I and subsequently coupled with horseradish PO. Plasma membrane and internalized immunoglobulins were detected by electron microscope autoradiography and peroxidase cytochemistry. Single- (Fab-PO), and double- ([125I]Fab-PO) labeled lymphoid cells showed identical patterns of surface or internal distribution of immunoglobulins. In the electron microscope, Fab-PO conjugates at 0°–4°C resulted in a diffuse specific staining of the plasmalemma of lymphocytes and plasma cells. Most of the small dark lymphocytes (T cells?) did not show plasma membrane Ig. Macrophages did not show plasmalemma staining, but displayed nonspecific cytoplasmic staining after incubation at 20° or 37°C with antibody or Fab-PO conjugates. Lymphocytes and plasma cells, after incubation with antibody-PO conjugates at 0°–4°C, had patchy deposits of oxidized DAB on their plasma membranes. Macrophages, similarly treated, had no plasmalemmal staining. Patch and cap formation on the plasma membrane of lymphocytes and plasma cells was seen regularly after antibody-PO incubation at 37°C. Internalization patterns were different in lymphocytes and plasma cells. In lymphocytes, peroxidase staining was observed in small round or oval vesicles clustered at one pole of the cell (30 min at 37°C). In plasma cells, peroxidase staining was seen in clusters of tubules resembling the Golgi apparatus. Internalization of plasma membrane IgG was less pronounced after antibody-PO labeling as compared to Fab-PO labeling.  相似文献

In a recent study we reported that CD27 is expressed on a subpopulation of human B lymphocytes and presented circumstantial phenotypic evidence that CD27 expression may be acquired late during B cell differentiation. Here we present functional data showing that, after in vitro stimulation, CD27+ but not CD27- B cells secrete large amounts of both IgM and IgG. Using double immunofluorescence staining of CD27 and IgD, three functionally different B cell subsets representing distinct stages of B cell differentiation can be isolated: 1) the CD27- IgD+ B cells, which do not secrete appreciable Ig; 2) the CD27+IgD+ B cells, which exclusively secrete IgM; and 3) the CD27+IgD- B cells, which comprise the IgG-producing cells. Furthermore, costimulation of CD27- B cells with low m.w. B cell growth factor, in the presence or in the absence of a CD40 mAb, does not induce these cells to become Ig-secreting cells. Although CD27- B cells hardly secrete Ig of any isotype in response to Staphylococcus aureus+IL-2, these cells proliferate vigorously and express the IL-2R alpha chain (CD25) under these stimulatory conditions. Furthermore, both CD27- and CD27+ B cells are capable of producing similar amounts of IL-6 and TNF-alpha. Taken together, these findings indicate that CD27 is a unique non-Ig surface marker discriminating naive from primed B lymphocytes. Furthermore, the capacity to proliferate and to secrete the B cell differentiation factors IL-6 and TNF-alpha already exists at an early B cell differentiation stage at which the cells lack CD27 expression and are not induced to produce Ig.  相似文献

The intercellular influences regulating immunoglobulin (Ig) synthesis by normal human peripheral blood leukocytes (PBL) were investigated in cells stimulated by pokeweed mitogen (PWM). This system was shown to be totally T lymphocyte dependent as purified B lymphocytes (less than or equal to 1% T lymphocytes) failed to make significant amounts of Ig. No evidence was obtained for an Ig class switch as all classes of Ig (IgM, IgG, IgA) were shown to be produced in increasing amounts over a 6-day time period. T lymphocytes demonstrated maximum helper effect when mixed with equal numbers of B cells. This helper effect was mediated through the dual mechanisms of increasing the number of B lymphocytes containing cytoplasmic Ig and by increasing the maturity of these B lymphocytes as demonstrated by an increasing Ig production per B lymphocyte. When present in higher numbers, T lymphocytes were also capable of suppressing Ig production. This T-mediated suppression was first evident as a decrease in the Ig produced per B lymphocyte (decreased maturity). With maximum T suppression Ig-containing B lymphocyte numbers were also diminished. T lymphocyte help was relatively independent of macrophages (phagocytic cells) and did not require DNA synthesis for expression. Both T help and suppression were shown to cross allogeneic barriers. Immature T lymphocytes (thymocytes) were incapable of mediating either activity. Normal human PBL contain T lymphocytes campable of mediating both T help and suppression and the Ig produced by PBL was shown to be the balance of these activities. This balance probably represent the participation of distinct T lymphocyte subpopulations analogous to the T helper (Ly 1+) and T suppressor (Ly 2+, 3+) populations in the mouse.  相似文献

The surface marker expression of a spontaneous B lymphocyte leukemia discovered in a BALB/c mouse (BCL1) was examined and found to include a subset of markers known to occur on normal B lymphocytes. The tumor cells bore surface Ig that included both mu- and delta-chains associated with the lambda light chain. Alloantigens coded for within the murine MHC, including H-2D, H-2K, and I-region products, were identified on the tumor cells. Although normal B lymphocytes are thought to express products coded for within both the I-A and I-E subregions, the BCL1 expressed only normal amounts of I-E subregion products. In addition, the H-2 and Ia antigens revealed by 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis exhibited an abnormal pattern of post-translational modifications. The Fc, but not the complement-receptor, was present on the surface of tumor cells. The presence of IgD, Ia antigens, and the responsiveness to lipopolysaccharide (see subsequent paper) have led us to postulate that the BCL1 tumor represents a later differentiative stage than murine B lymphocyte tumors previously described.  相似文献

Isolation and sequence of sheep Ig H and L chain cDNA   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
Sheep lymphocyte poly(A+) RNA was used as a template for the enzymatic synthesis of cDNA before cloning into the expression vector lambda gt11. Screening of the cDNA library with mAb probes resulted in the isolation of two recombinant phages containing Ig coding sequences of 704 bp and 925 bp. These were inserted into the EcoRI site of pUC18 and named pSLC (sheep Ig L chain) and pSHC (sheep Ig H chain). The insert in pSLC revealed sequence homology by using GenBank to lambda L chain and pSHC revealed sequence homology to IgG sequences from various species. The L chain cDNA contained the full translation sequence and 5' and 3' nontranslating region while the H chain cDNA coded for the secreted form of IgG1 and lacked sequences upstream from the C region. The derived amino acid sequences showed significant homology with various Ig sequences already described for human, mouse, rabbit, pig, and chicken but the degree of homology showed no consistency with established phylogenetic relationships.  相似文献

An appraisal of Fc receptors on human peripheral blood B and L lymphocytes.   总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11  
Human circulating lymphocytes with easily detectable surface immunoglobulin have been divided into two populations, B cells and L cells. This second population lacks membrane-incorporated Ig, but has a receptor for membrane-labile cytophilic IgG. In this study purified B and L lymphocytes were examined for Fc receptors that bind aggregated IgG and IgG complexed to erythrocytes. Purified lymphocyte populations were prepared by nylon columns and by negative selection with rosetting techniques. L lymphocytes bound aggregated guinea pig and human IgG, and formed rosettes with human erythrocytes sensitized with Ripley IgG (EA). Treatment of L lymphocytes with trypsin had no effect on the receptors for IgG. B lymphocytes did not bind EA and attachment of aggregated IgG was variable; up to one-third of these cells fixed aggregated human IgG to the cell membrane. Trypsin treatment abolished binding of Agg-IgG to B cells in sharp contrast to its effect on L cells. Furthermore, double-label immunofluorescence studies showed that cells with both membrane-incorporated Ig and receptors for aggregated guinea pig IgG were rare. These studies indicate that human peripheral blood B lymphocytes lack a high affinity, trypsin-resistant Fc receptor that is present on L lymphocytes.  相似文献

Serum immunoglobulins [Ig] of rohu [Labeo rohita] were purified by affinity chromatography using bovine serum albumin as capture ligand. The purified rohu Ig [r-Ig] had a molecular weight [MW] of 880 kDa as determined with gel filtration chromatography. The heavy chain of r-Ig had an MW of 77.8 kDa and that of light chain was 26.4 kDa in SDS-PAGE. Purified r-Ig was used for the production of two anti-rohu Ig monoclonal antibodies [D7 and H4] that belonged to subclass IgG2b and IgG1, respectively. Both the MAbs were specific to heavy chain of r-Ig as seen in Western blotting. Anti-rohu Ig MAb was used as a diagnostic reagent in ELISA and immunocytochemical assays to demonstrate its application for sero-surveillance and for immunological studies in rohu. A competitive ELISA was used to demonstrate the antigenic relatedness of r-Ig with whole serum Ig of other fish species. Cross reactivity of anti-rohu Ig MAb was observed with serum Ig of Catla catla and Cirrihinus mrigala. No reactivity to serum Ig of Ophiocephalus striatus and Clarias gariepinus was seen. Anti-rohu Ig MAb was found to be suitable for the detection of pathogen specific [Edwardsiella tarda] antibodies in serum of immunized rohu by an indirect ELISA. In flow cytometry using D7 MAb, the mean percentage [+/-SE] of Ig positive cells in spleen and blood of rohu were found to be 64.85% [+/-2.34] and 51.84% [+/-2.55] of gated lymphocytes, respectively. Similarly, D7 MAb also stained 52.84% [+/-1.30] and 10.5% of gated lymphocytes in kidney and thymus, respectively. The anti-rohu Ig MAbs also showed specific staining of Ig bearing cells in spleen sections by the indirect immunoperoxidase test.  相似文献

The injection of mice with a foreign, polyclonal antibody to IgD sequentially induces: 1) activation of B cells by cross-linking of their cell membrane (m) IgD; 2) B cell processing and presentation of the bound anti-IgD antibody to T cells; 3) activation of these T cells; and 4) T-dependent stimulation of B cell differentiation into IgG1 secreting cells. To determine whether the cross-linking of B cell membrane IgD and/or the resulting B cell activation that follows contribute to the generation of the polyclonal IgG1 response, we examined the abilities of three sets of anti-delta mAb or mAb fragments to stimulate polyclonal IgG1 production. Within each set mAb were matched for species and Ig isotypic determinants, but differed in avidity for IgD or in ability to cross-link IgD. In addition, experiments were performed to determine whether the anti-delta mAb had to be foreign to the immunized mouse to stimulate an IgG1 response. Results of these experiments indicate that: 1) recognition of the injected anti-delta antibody as foreign is required for the induction of a polyclonal IgG1 response; 2) the cross-linking of B cell membrane Ig, which directly activates B cells, can contribute considerably to the generation of in vivo IgG1 production; and 3) that even relatively weak cross-linking of membrane Ig by ligands that bind it with low avidity can make this contribution.  相似文献

Immunoglobulins (Ig) in serum from barramundi vaccinated with bovine serum albumin (BSA) were purified by ammonium sulphate precipitation and affinity chromatography using BSA as the ligand. The BSA-binding activity of eluted putative Ig fractions was assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) before being pooled and characterised by sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Double affinity purification did not improve the purity of the Ig preparation compared to single affinity purification. Barramundi Ig were injected into sheep to produce anti-Ig antisera which were assessed in an indirect ELISA as the secondary antibody to detect serum Ig in barramundi vaccinated with Cryptocaryon irritans theronts. Affinity-purified Ig induced a more specific reagent for use as secondary antibody in ELISA than did normal whole-barramundi sera. The heavy (H) chain of barramundi Ig had an apparent molecular weight of 70 kDa while that of the light (L) chain was 27 kDa in SDS-PAGE studies. Under non-reducing conditions 2 putative populations of Ig were identified, at 768 and 210 kDa. The N-terminal sequence of the barramundi Ig H chain showed 78% homology with channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus Ig H chain sequence.  相似文献

The neoantigenic determinants (neoAg) which have been identified in the human C5b-9 membranolytic C complex were detected here by the direct fluorescent antibody technique on the surface of 27 +/- 11% of viable peripheral blood leukocytes (PBL). The cells were prepared from defibrinated blood by sedimentation on Ficoll-Hypaque. Specificity of the antisera was established by quantitative inhibition of the fluorescent staining reaction, and of agglutination of EAC1-7, by highly purified C5b-9 complex. No inhibition was observed with fresh normal human serum. The majority of the PBL with surface neoAg was found in the B lymphocyte subpopulation that failed to form rosettes with sheep erythrocytes. NeoAg on B lymphocytes was removed to differing degrees by trypsin, papain, or pepsin treatment, and by maintaining the cells at 4 degree C for 20 hr in serum-free medium. The individual components, C5, C6, C7, C8, and C9, were also detected on the surface of PBL. With differential fluorescent stains, C5 and neoAg as well as C8 and neoAg could be detected on the same cells. The results indicate that viable B lymphocytes prepared from defibrinated blood, have the components of the membrane attack complex of C on their surface. The concomitant occurrence of the neoAg indicates that these proteins are present at least in part in the form of the assembled terminal complex.  相似文献

The delineation of discrete subpopulations of human T lymphocytes has permitted preliminary analyses of the complex cellular network regulating the immune response in man. We previously showed that a subset of T lymphocytes, designated as theophylline-sensitive because of their inability to bind sheep red blood cells in the presence of the drug, are responsible for antigen-specific suppression or regulation in an in vitro plaque-forming cell assay. We now show that 25 to 45% of these theophylline-sensitive T cells were Ia-positive by immunofluorescence with a rabbit antiserum raised against purified B lymphoblast surface antigenic material. These data suggested that 4 to 7% of peripheral blood T cells carry Ia determinants. The presence of Ia determinants on this T cell subset was confirmed by gel analysis of radioiodinated surface material. Furthermore, in mixed lymphocyte culture, the theophylline-sensitive cells demonstrated HLA-D determinants and were 10-fold more potent stimulators than equal numbers of B lymphocytes. The presence of Ia determinants on these T cells indicates the expression of major histocompatibility complex-related regulatory gene products on a specific human T lymphocyte subpopulation.  相似文献

Light microscopic immunocytochemistry was used to identify Paneth cells by their lysozyme content and to detect immunoglobulin antigens within a subpopulation of these cells. Antisera specific for the heavy chains of rat or human immunoglobulin A and for immunoglobulin light chain antigens produced specific staining of rat Paneth cells. The distribution of immunoglobulin staining varied between adjacent Paneth cells in the same crypt and between Paneth cells in adjacent crypts, as well as between Paneth cell populations of different animals. No staining of rat Paneth cells was detected using antisera specific for the heavy chain of immunoglobulins G or M. The specific staining of Paneth cells for immunoglobulin A and light chain antigens was blocked by absorption of each antiserum with its respective purified antigen. Absorption of these antisera with purified rat lysozyme did not affect staining and thereby eliminated the possibility of immunologic cross-reactivity between lysozyme and immunoglobulin antigens. It is suggested, in light of current concepts of Paneth cell function, that the immunoglobulin staining of Paneth cells may reflect their ability to phagocytize immunoglobulin A-coated microorganisms or immune complexes containing immunoglobulin A.  相似文献
