Activated human T lymphocytes display new surface glycoproteins. 1978

L C Andersson, and C G Gahmberg, and A K Kimura, and H Wigzell

We have analyzed the surface glycoproteins of resting and in vitro activated human T lymphocytes by the galactose oxidase/NaB3H4 and the periodate/NaB3H4 labeling techniques. The labeled glycoproteins were separated by polyacrylamide slab gel electrophoresis and visualized by fluorography. A "new" glycoprotein with an apparent molecular weight of 130,000 (GP130) was strongly labeled on alloantigen-activated T blasts but only weakly or not at all on mitogen-stimulated T blasts and resting T lymphocytes. These results demonstrate that human T cells, as earlier found in the mouse system, express different surface molecules in relation to the particular mode of activation and stage of differentiation.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007519 Isoantigens Antigens that exist in alternative (allelic) forms in a single species. When an isoantigen is encountered by species members who lack it, an immune response is induced. Typical isoantigens are the BLOOD GROUP ANTIGENS. Alloantigens,Alloantigen,Isoantigen
D008213 Lymphocyte Activation Morphologic alteration of small B LYMPHOCYTES or T LYMPHOCYTES in culture into large blast-like cells able to synthesize DNA and RNA and to divide mitotically. It is induced by INTERLEUKINS; MITOGENS such as PHYTOHEMAGGLUTININS, and by specific ANTIGENS. It may also occur in vivo as in GRAFT REJECTION. Blast Transformation,Blastogenesis,Lymphoblast Transformation,Lymphocyte Stimulation,Lymphocyte Transformation,Transformation, Blast,Transformation, Lymphoblast,Transformation, Lymphocyte,Activation, Lymphocyte,Stimulation, Lymphocyte
D008565 Membrane Proteins Proteins which are found in membranes including cellular and intracellular membranes. They consist of two types, peripheral and integral proteins. They include most membrane-associated enzymes, antigenic proteins, transport proteins, and drug, hormone, and lectin receptors.

D008934 Mitogens Substances that stimulate mitosis and lymphocyte transformation. They include not only substances associated with LECTINS, but also substances from streptococci (associated with streptolysin S) and from strains of alpha-toxin-producing staphylococci.

D013601 T-Lymphocytes Lymphocytes responsible for cell-mediated immunity. Two types have been identified - cytotoxic (T-LYMPHOCYTES, CYTOTOXIC) and helper T-lymphocytes (T-LYMPHOCYTES, HELPER-INDUCER). They are formed when lymphocytes circulate through the THYMUS GLAND and differentiate to thymocytes. When exposed to an antigen, they divide rapidly and produce large numbers of new T cells sensitized to that antigen.
