Cytoskeletal binding of monoclonal anti-DNA antibodies derived from tonsillar lymphoid cells of a normal subject. 1986

E Cairns, and R Komar, and D A Bell

The ability of monoclonal IgM anti-DNA autoantibodies derived from normal human lymphoid cells to bind to cellular constituents of human epithelial cells (HEp-2) was examined by immunofluorescence. Hybridoma supernatants from 10 different clones were studied. Four of them gave a strong fibrillar cytoplasmic staining that resembled cytoskeletal staining, 1 showed strong nuclear staining only, 3 showed weak nucleolar staining only, and 2 showed no staining. The hybridoma supernatants that reacted with HEp-2 cytoskeleton were either polyspecific for various nucleic acid antigens, such as single-stranded DNA, DNA, poly(dA:dT), poly(dG).poly(dC), RNA, and cardiolipin, or were restricted to cardiolipin. Cytoskeletal staining identical to the hybridoma supernatant staining was also seen with mouse monoclonal anti-vimentin antibody B11.5.1. Inhibition of the cytoskeletal staining was accomplished in 3 of the 4 hybridoma supernatants by preabsorption of these hybridoma supernatants with cardiolipin and/or single-stranded DNA, or by preincubation of the HEp-2 cells with the mouse monoclonal anti-vimentin antibody.

D008214 Lymphocytes White blood cells formed in the body's lymphoid tissue. The nucleus is round or ovoid with coarse, irregularly clumped chromatin while the cytoplasm is typically pale blue with azurophilic (if any) granules. Most lymphocytes can be classified as either T or B (with subpopulations of each), or NATURAL KILLER CELLS. Lymphoid Cells,Cell, Lymphoid,Cells, Lymphoid,Lymphocyte,Lymphoid Cell
D002308 Cardiolipins Acidic phospholipids composed of two molecules of phosphatidic acid covalently linked to a molecule of glycerol. They occur primarily in mitochondrial inner membranes and in bacterial plasma membranes. They are the main antigenic components of the Wassermann-type antigen that is used in nontreponemal SYPHILIS SERODIAGNOSIS. Cardiolipin,Diphosphatidylglycerol,Diphosphatidylglycerols

D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D004277 DNA, Single-Stranded A single chain of deoxyribonucleotides that occurs in some bacteria and viruses. It usually exists as a covalently closed circle. Single-Stranded DNA,DNA, Single Stranded,Single Stranded DNA
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.
