Binding of staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA) with human splenic lymphocytes. 1983

Y u Ezepchuk, and V P Noskova, and R D Aspetov, and A S Novokhatsky, and A N Noscov

1. The presence of specific binding of [125I]SEA with human splenocytes is established. 2. The association of toxin at 4 C is characterized by saturation, reversibility and a great affinity to a receptor (Kd = 4.0 x 10(-7) M). 3. The number of binding sites on a cell is equal to 6000. 4. At 23 C the binding of labelled toxin with a cell described by a biphasic curve. 5. Priming increases the association of SEA with the splenocytes and correspondingly increases the production level of gamma-interferon.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007371 Interferon-gamma The major interferon produced by mitogenically or antigenically stimulated LYMPHOCYTES. It is structurally different from TYPE I INTERFERON and its major activity is immunoregulation. It has been implicated in the expression of CLASS II HISTOCOMPATIBILITY ANTIGENS in cells that do not normally produce them, leading to AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES. Interferon Type II,Interferon, Immune,gamma-Interferon,Interferon, gamma,Type II Interferon,Immune Interferon,Interferon, Type II
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
D011485 Protein Binding The process in which substances, either endogenous or exogenous, bind to proteins, peptides, enzymes, protein precursors, or allied compounds. Specific protein-binding measures are often used as assays in diagnostic assessments. Plasma Protein Binding Capacity,Binding, Protein

D013154 Spleen An encapsulated lymphatic organ through which venous blood filters.
D013210 Staphylococcus A genus of gram-positive, facultatively anaerobic, coccoid bacteria. Its organisms occur singly, in pairs, and in tetrads and characteristically divide in more than one plane to form irregular clusters. Natural populations of Staphylococcus are found on the skin and mucous membranes of warm-blooded animals. Some species are opportunistic pathogens of humans and animals.
