Studies on the induction and expression of T cell-mediated immunity. XIV. Antigen-nonspecific oxidation-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ODCC) mediated by sodium periodate oxidation of cytotoxic T lymphocytes

Alloimmune murine thymus-derived cytotoxic lymphocytes (CTL) generated in vivo or in vitro are shown to lyse antigen-nonspecific target cells (tumor cells, Con A, and LPS blasts) following treatment of CTL with an oxidizing agent, sodium periodate (NaIO4). It has been shown that NaIO4 oxidizes terminal sialic acid residues of cell surface macromolecules. The presence of reactive aldehyde groups, generated by NaIO4 modification, is required for the expression of antigen-nonspecific cytotoxicity because treatment of modified cells with a reducing agent such as potassium borohydride (KBH4) resulted in the abrogation of cytotoxicity. However, KBH4 treatment of unmodified or NaIO4-modified CTL has no effect on antigen-specific cytotoxicity. The modification of CTL by NaIO4 is sufficient to lead to the formation of lymphocyte-target cell conjugates and lysis of bound targets. Monoclonal antibodies directed against the Lyt-2 antigens of CTL, but not Lyt-1 antigens, in the absence of complement inhibited the nonspecific cytotoxicity resulting from NaIO4 modification of effector lymphocytes. These findings suggest that the mere interaction with or perturbation of appropriate cell surface molecule(s) of effector lymphocytes such as Lyt antigens by receptor-ligand interaction in SCMC or by NaIO4 modification in ODCC may lead to the expression of cytotoxicity. The present studies demonstrate a functional role of surface carbohydrates on CTL in cell-to-cell recognition and interactions. Furthermore, the results suggest that target cell modification is not a requisite for recognition and lysis in an antigen-nonspecific cytotoxic system such as ODCC. However, partial blocking of ODCC by alloantibodies directed against the H-2 of unmodified target cells suggests that NaIO4-modified CTL recognize unrelated target H-2 antigens. The implication of these findings on the molecular mechanism of cell-mediated cytotoxicity is discussed.     

Studies on the induction and expression of T-cell-mediated immunity. XIII. Membrane-associated antigens of cytotoxic T lymphocytes involved in cytotoxicity

An xenogeneic rat anti-mouse T-cell serum, designated RAT*, has been shown to block the cytolytic activity of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) at a postbinding step. RAT* serum or the IgG fraction was extensively absorbed with the target cell, P815, a DBA mastocytoma, and used with or without further absorption to immunoprecipitate specific molecules from radiolabeled membrane extracts of CTL derived from either in vivo-allosensitized mice or from cytotoxic clones maintained in in vitro cultures. Cell surface sialic acid residues were labeled by oxidation with sodium periodate (NaIO4) and reduction with tritiated sodium borohydride ([3H]NaBH4). Alternatively, cell surface proteins were labeled with 125I by lactoperoxidase-catalyzed iodination. Nonidet P-40 (NP-40)-solubilized radiolabeled membranes were then immunoprecipitated with RAT* serum and analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). Three membrane-associated molecules of 95,000, 140,000 and 180,000 Mr were found by such analysis. The sensitivity of these three molecules to trypsinization and their susceptibility to labeling with [3H]NaBH4 suggested that they are glycoproteins. Moreover, when RAT* serum or the IgG fraction was absorbed with various cell types, its ability to immunoprecipitate the three molecules correlated with its ability to block cytolysis. Adsorption of RAT* serum with CTL, but not with nonimmune thymocytes, significantly reduced the ability of RAT* serum to inhibit cytotoxicity and to immunoprecipitate the 95k, 140k, and 180k molecules. Thus, these findings suggest that one or more of these cell surface molecules of CTL may be involved in the cytolytic process.     

Nucleoside Diphosphate-sugar 4-Epimerases I. Uridine Diphosphate Glucose 4-Epimerase of Wheat Germ

Uridine diphosphate (UDP)-glucose 4-epimerase (EC 5.1.3.2) has been purified over 1000-fold from extracts of wheat germ by MnCl₂ treatment, (NH₄)₂SO₄ fractionation, Sephadex column chromatography, and adsorption onto and elution from calcium phosphate gel. The enzyme has a pH optimum of 9.0. Km values are 0.1 mm for UDP-d-galactose and 0.2 mm for UDP-d-glucose. NAD is required for activity; K_a = 0.04 mm. NADH is an inhibitor strictly competitive with NAD; K_i = 2 μm. Wheat germ also contains UDP-l-arabinose 4-epimerase (EC 5.1.3.5) and thymidine diphosphate (TDP)-glucose 4-epimerase which are distinct from UDP-glucose 4-epimerase.     

胎盘型碱性磷酸酶的纯化及部分性质的研究

 <正> 胎盘型碱性磷酸酶(P-ALP)是碱性磷酸酶(EC3.1.3.1.ALP)的一种同工酶。P-ALP除出现于妊娠妇女血清外,一些学者还从恶性肿瘤患者血清中发现此酶,并证明它是一种特异性较强的肿瘤标志物。据此,建立P-ALP的简易纯化方法,制备纯度较高的酶制品是建立P-ALP灵敏的微量检测法的先决条件。本文报道以L-苯丙氨酸(L-phe)为配基,用氯代环氧丙烷活化Sepharose 4B的亲和层析法,从人胎盘纯化P-ALP,并对其部分性质进行了研究。
