Crossed immunoelectrophoresis of rat serum. 1984

M Emmett, and A McCracken, and J L Brown, and A J Crowle

A crossed immunoelectrophoresis (X-IEP) reference profile of normal (Sprague-Dawley) rat serum antigens was developed. Twenty-three antigens were detected; 13 were identified. These included inter-alpha-trypsin inhibitor, alpha 1-antichymotrypsin, and fibronectin, which had not previously been identified in rat serum. Many of the antigens were similar electrophoretically to their analogs in human and mouse serum, but some were substantially different. Inter-alpha-trypsin inhibitor, fibronectin, and C3 globulin were more anodic, while transferrin was more cathodic. Rat haptoglobin's mobility was between those of human and mouse haptoglobins. As in the mouse, but more so, alpha-macroglobulin in the rat had alpha 1 mobility rather than alpha 2 seen for this protein in human serum. Only rat alpha 1-antichymotrypsin exhibited a double peak. There were variations in haptoglobin and alpha 1-lipoprotein mobilities among different strains of rat. This establishment of a standard X-IEP map of rat serum will simultaneously permit multiple quantitative and qualitative analyses of rat serum antigens for various experimental and clinical purposes.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007122 Immunoelectrophoresis A technique that combines protein electrophoresis and double immunodiffusion. In this procedure proteins are first separated by gel electrophoresis (usually agarose), then made visible by immunodiffusion of specific antibodies. A distinct elliptical precipitin arc results for each protein detectable by the antisera.
D007123 Immunoelectrophoresis, Two-Dimensional Immunoelectrophoresis in which a second electrophoretic transport is performed on the initially separated antigen fragments into an antibody-containing medium in a direction perpendicular to the first electrophoresis.

D005353 Fibronectins Glycoproteins found on the surfaces of cells, particularly in fibrillar structures. The proteins are lost or reduced when these cells undergo viral or chemical transformation. They are highly susceptible to proteolysis and are substrates for activated blood coagulation factor VIII. The forms present in plasma are called cold-insoluble globulins.
