Anti-A agglutinin from Helix pomatia as a marker for L cells. 1977

K D Jentzsch, and S Schnitzler, and B Mauersberger, and W Jacob

By means of fluorescein-labeled anti-AHP agglutinin isolated from the albumen gland of the snail Helix pomatia L. L cells were detected in air dried and fixed monolayer preparations, smear preparations or cryostat sections of tumours induced in two different host systems. The tumours consisting of L cells could be clearly distinguished from the surrounding normal host tissues, and also single tumour cells lying separtely in the host tissued were identified in the same unequivocal manner. The cells were marked by characteristic granular fluorescence caused by specific agglutinin binding within the cell membrane. With these results the previously expressed thesis that anti-AHP agglutinin might be used as a marker for L cells is confirmed for L cells grown in suitable host systems, too.

D005455 Fluorescent Antibody Technique Test for tissue antigen using either a direct method, by conjugation of antibody with fluorescent dye (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, DIRECT) or an indirect method, by formation of antigen-antibody complex which is then labeled with fluorescein-conjugated anti-immunoglobulin antibody (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, INDIRECT). The tissue is then examined by fluorescence microscopy.
