Bovine kappa-caseinoglycopeptides (i.e. residues 106-169, CGP) were prepared from kappa-casein digested with rennin and a commercial whey protein concentrate. CGP from whey protein concentrate was further divided into seven CGP fractions having different carbohydrate compositions using FPLC. Unfractionated CGP inhibited lipopolysaccharide (LPS)- and phytohaemagglutinin (PHA)-induced proliferative responses of mouse spleen cells and rabbit Peyer's patch cells. The unfractionated CGP also inhibited antibody responses to sheep red blood cells in mouse spleen cell cultures. However, seven CGP fractions having zero to five N-acetylneuraminic acid (NANA) residues had different inhibitory effects on both LPS- and PHA-induced proliferative responses of mouse spleen cells. The inhibitory effect on PHA-induced proliferative responses increased with increasing numbers of NANA residues, whereas that on LPS-induced proliferation was highest with the CGP fraction having two NANA residues. Both inhibitory effects decreased significantly after neuraminidase or chymotrypsin digestion. These findings indicate that both the carbohydrate (particularly the NANA residues) and the polypeptide portions are essential for inhibitory effects on LPS- and PHA-induced proliferative responses of mouse spleen cells.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008070 Lipopolysaccharides Lipid-containing polysaccharides which are endotoxins and important group-specific antigens. They are often derived from the cell wall of gram-negative bacteria and induce immunoglobulin secretion. The lipopolysaccharide molecule consists of three parts: LIPID A, core polysaccharide, and O-specific chains (O ANTIGENS). When derived from Escherichia coli, lipopolysaccharides serve as polyclonal B-cell mitogens commonly used in laboratory immunology. (From Dorland, 28th ed) Lipopolysaccharide,Lipoglycans
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
