P-selectin is an important adhesion molecule involved in leukocyte migration. However, to date, no monoclonal antibodies (MAb) generated against rat P-selectin have been identified which block P-selectin mediated leukocyte adhesion. Most studies in the rat have utilized crossreacting antibodies generated against P-selectin in higher species. In a P-selectin deficient mouse we generated an anti-rat/mouse P-selectin MAb, designated RMP-1, by immunization with activated rat platelets. This IgG2a MAb immunoprecipitates a 140 kDa protein under reducing conditions from rat platelet lysate. By ELISA and immunofluorescence flow cytometry, MAb RMP-1 reacts with thrombin-activated but not unactivated rat platelets. In addition, by ELISA MAb RMP-1 binds to activated mouse platelets and recombinant rat and mouse P-selectin. MAb RMP-1 inhibited adhesion of HL-60 myeloid cells to immobilized mouse P-selectin by 97% and to activated rat and mouse platelets by 100% under static conditions, confirming the adhesion function blocking activity of MAb RMP-1. This novel MAb should be useful for studying P-selectin function in vitro and in vivo in both rat and mouse inflammation models.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008024 Ligands A molecule that binds to another molecule, used especially to refer to a small molecule that binds specifically to a larger molecule, e.g., an antigen binding to an antibody, a hormone or neurotransmitter binding to a receptor, or a substrate or allosteric effector binding to an enzyme. Ligands are also molecules that donate or accept a pair of electrons to form a coordinate covalent bond with the central metal atom of a coordination complex. (From Dorland, 27th ed) Ligand

D002448 Cell Adhesion Adherence of cells to surfaces or to other cells. Adhesion, Cell,Adhesions, Cell,Cell Adhesions
D004797 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.

D005434 Flow Cytometry Technique using an instrument system for making, processing, and displaying one or more measurements on individual cells obtained from a cell suspension. Cells are usually stained with one or more fluorescent dyes specific to cell components of interest, e.g., DNA, and fluorescence of each cell is measured as it rapidly transverses the excitation beam (laser or mercury arc lamp). Fluorescence provides a quantitative measure of various biochemical and biophysical properties of the cell, as well as a basis for cell sorting. Other measurable optical parameters include light absorption and light scattering, the latter being applicable to the measurement of cell size, shape, density, granularity, and stain uptake.
