Neutrophils bound 72.2 ± 10.3%, of the14C- or125I-labeled tuftsin in the incubation medium. When the label was incorporated at the N-terminal portion, the binding was reduced to 10%, indicating that the N-terminus is essential for the activity. Lymphocytes and monocytes also showed specific binding sites for labeled tuftsin, but the percentage binding was lower. The differences were not significant. Addition of varying amounts of unlabeled tuftsin to the labeled tuftsin-neutrophil complex, indicated quantitative competition for the binding sites on the cells. Preincubation of the neutrophils with chicken antituftsin abolished the binding.These studies indicate that neutrophils, lymphocytes and monocytes possess receptor sites for the phagocytosis-stimulating peptide. The enzymatic cleavage and generation of tuftsin from leukokinin by the action of leukokininase on neutrophils has been suggested to be a major event in phagocytosis. The receptor sites on neutrophils for the tetrapeptide tuftsin, evidenced by our present work, provide a valuable link towards the elucidation of the mechanism of phagocytosis-stimulation. The presence of similar binding sites for tuftsin on lymphocytes and monocytes indicates a probable role for these cell populations as well, in the sequence of events during phagocytosis.

The reaction mixture consisted of high proportion of polymeric and oligomeric molecules, but a small quantity of monomeric ones. The present investigation shows that the monomeric fraction isolated from the reaction mixture is altered in comparison with untreated monomeric albumin. The modification produced in the homologous monomeric albumin by glutaraldehyde conferred to the molecule immunogenic properties, due to the presence of new antigenic sites (haptenic determinants). Glutaraldehyde treatment induced similar haptenic determinants on albumins of different origins as shown by the cross-reactivity between glutaraldehyde treated human and rabbit albumin, which precipitate both with human and rabbit antibodies. Rabbit antibodies were shown to be specific both for the glutaraldehyde modified monomeric albumin and the “aged” fraction which exist in albumin stored either in dry state (commercial albumin) or in solution at 37°C. The same antibodies failed to react with freshly prepared albumin. Our data strongly suggest that the glutaraldehyde treatment alter the monomeric albumin in a similar way asin vitro “ageing” does.</div>","PeriodicalId":13265,"journal":{"name":"Immunochemistry","volume":"15 12","pages":"Pages 941-944"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1978-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0161-5890(78)90128-1","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"11307154","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fluorescyl ligand conjugated to purified antibody preparations exhibited a red spectral shift characteristic of specifically bound fluorophore. Fluorescence of ligand conjugated to antibody was quenched about 95% relative to ~ 90% for ligand reversibly bound. The quantum yield (Φ) of the former is indicative of a thiocarbamyl linkage within the antibody-active site. Fluorescence lifetime (t) measurements by phase and modulation showed a close correlation between liganded and affinity-labeled antibody relative to free ligand and fluorescyl conjugated non-antibody proteins. The fluorescyl-affinity label was not dissociated from the antibody-active site upon denaturation of the protein in 6M guanidine-HCl. Reduction, alkylation and resolution of H and L chains in two different dispersing agents showed that the ligand remained attached to either chain. Fluorescyl ligand bound to high affinity IgG (i.e. non-affinity labeled) was quantitatively released under conditions required for H and L chain production. The fluorescence of affinity labeled ligand was enhanced in high concentrations of deuterium oxide.
