Experimental autoimmune thyroiditis induced by a 5-10-kDa tryptic fragment from porcine thyroglobulin. 1987

J Salamero, and J J Remy, and M Michel-Bechet, and J Charreire

Monoclonal autoantibodies obtained using the native porcine thyroglobulin (Tg) molecule for immunization were shown to react against a defined epitope of the Tg molecule. Its biochemical characterization was undertaken, using trypsin treatment of Tg, followed by gel filtration, affinity chromatography, sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and high pressure liquid chromatography analysis. Immunoreactivity tested by immunoblotting with appropriate monoclonal anti-Tg antibody allowed the detection of one peptide fragment of 5-10 kDa, after limited proteolysis with trypsin. We demonstrated that this peptide reacts exclusively with monoclonal anti-Tg antibodies which block in vitro proliferative T cell response; moreover, the 5-10-kDa tryptic fragments from porcine Tg were able to induce thyroiditis when injected into normal CBA mice, while porcine Tg depleted from these fragments was not able to do so.

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.
