Summary

该方法的目的是通过与已知红细胞CR1密度的三个受试者进行比较,确定任何受试者红细胞CR1密度的CR1密度。该方法使用抗CR1单克隆抗体在受试者红细胞免疫染色后使用流细胞学,并结合使用植物素(PE)的放大系统。

Abstract

CR1(CD35,C3b/C4b的补色受体1型)是一种高分子量膜糖蛋白,约200 kDa,控制补充活化,运输免疫复合物,并参与体液和细胞免疫反应。CR1 存在于许多细胞类型的表面上,包括红细胞,在长度、结构(Knops 或 KN、血群)和密度方面表现出多态性。每红细胞(CR1/E)CR1的平均密度为每红细胞500个分子。此密度因人而异(100~1,200 CR1/E),同一个体从一个红细胞到另一个红细胞。我们在这里提出了一种可靠的流细胞测量方法,用于测量CR1/E的密度,包括在表达低密度的受试者中,借助放大免疫染色系统。这种方法使我们能够显示CR1红细胞表达在疾病,如阿尔茨海默氏病(AD),全身红斑狼疮(SLE),艾滋病,或疟疾的降低。

Introduction

CR1(补充受体类型1,CD35)是一种200 kDa跨膜糖蛋白存在于许多细胞类型的表面,如红细胞1、B淋巴细胞2、单细胞细胞、一些T细胞、卵泡变性细胞3、胎儿星斑细胞4和球状球状细胞5。CR1干扰其配体C3b、C4b、C3bi6,6、7、8、9,第一补分组C1q7,8,910和MBL(曼南结合语)11的子单元抑制补品的激活,并参与体液和细胞免疫反应。

在灵长类动物,包括人类,红细胞CR1参与将免疫复合物输送到肝脏和脾脏,以净化血液,防止它们在脆弱的组织中积累,如皮肤或肾脏12、13、14。12,13,14免疫复合物和红细胞之间的免疫粘附现象取决于CR1分子的数量15。在人类中,CR1/E的平均密度只有500(即,每红细胞500个CR1分子)。此密度因人而异(100~1,200 CR1/E),同一个体从一个红细胞到另一个红细胞。一些”空”表型的个体表达少于20 CR1/E16。

CR1/E的密度由两个共同主导体体等位基因调节,这些等位基因编码为CR1_117,18,18的intron 27中。这种突变为HindIII酶产生额外的限制位点。在这种情况下,使用 HindIII 消化后获得的限制片段为 7.4 kb,用于与 CR1(H: 高等位基因)的强表达相连的等位基因,与低 CR1 表达式(L:低等位基因)相连的等位机为 6.9 kb。这种联系在白种人和亚洲人中被发现,但在19岁的非洲人后裔中却找不到。

红细胞CR1的表达水平也与exon 13编码SCR 10(I643T)和exon 19编码SCR16(Q981H)中存在点核苷酸突变有关。其高在同型643I/981Q和低同源643T/981H个体20。因此,”低”个人表达约150 CR1/E,”中等”个人表达约500CR1/E,”高”个人表达约1,000CR1/E。

除了这种红细胞密度多态性外,CR1 还具有与四种不同尺寸的异位对应的长度多态性:CR1+1 (190 kDa)、CR1+2 (220 kDa)、CR1+3 (160 kDa) 和 CR1+4 (250 kDa)21和对应于血型 KN22的抗原多态性。

我们提出基于流细胞测定的方法,以确定CR1/E的密度。 使用已知CR1/E密度的三个受试者,表达低密度水平(180 CR1/E)、中等密度水平(646 CR1/E)和高密度水平(966 CR1/E),使用流式细胞仪进行抗CR1免疫后,很容易测量其红细胞或红血球(RBC)的平均荧光强度(MFI)。然后,可以将表示 MFI 的标准线绘制为 CR1/E 密度的函数。测量其CR1/E密度不为人知的受试者的MFI,并将其与该标准线进行比较,可以确定个体的CR1/E密度。这项技术已在实验室使用多年,并使我们能够发现红细胞CR1在许多疾病的表达减少,如系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)23,后天免疫机能丧失综合症(艾滋病)24,疟疾25,最近阿尔茨海默病(AD)26,27。26,27开发针对CR1的药物与红细胞耦合,如抗血栓药物28需要评估CR1/E密度,以及提供量化CR1的可靠技术。

呈现的协议以唱歌的方式运行。它适用于确定CR1/E的密度,许多个人使用特定的商业上可用的96孔板(见材料表)。为此,我们很容易将方法适应任何96井板。对于每个样本,红细胞细胞的细胞悬浮液(0.5 x 106×106红细胞)分布在每口井。对于每一口井,首先添加主要的抗CR1抗体,然后是链球菌PE,二级抗链球菌类抗体,再次使用与方法相同的稀释剂,但通过调整体积和尊重相称性。

应同时抽取来自受试者的血液样本和用于CR1的受试者的血液样本,在4°C下储存在冰箱中,并在4°C(冰上和/或冰箱)处理。

Representative Results

已知CR1密度的三个受试者的红细胞(”低”受试者[180 CR1/E],”中等”受试者[646 CR1/E]和”高”受试者[966 CR1/E])和需要确定CR1密度的两个受试者的红细胞被抗CR1抗体与使用植物氟色素的扩增系统耦染免疫。一开始,低高范围受试者的CR1密度由Scatchard方法29使用放射性标记抗体确定。确定的标准(低、中、高)用于校准曲线,并使得通过我们的细胞测定方法30来量化新标准…

Discussion

有多种技术可用于确定红细胞CR1(CR1/E)的密度。使用的第一种技术是抗CR1抗体31凝固红血球,以及红细胞在红细胞中涂有C3b32时形成红血球。这些基本技术很快被使用放射性标记的抗CR1抗体11,3333的免疫染色方法所取代。也可以通过酶相关免疫吸附剂测定(ELISA)34来测量膜提取物中CR1的浓度。虽然?…
