    • Eleven monoclonal antibodies (MoAb) directed against the immunoregulatory plasma glycoprotein alpha 1-microglobulin were characterized. The MoAb were produced in mice immunized with a mixture of alpha 1-microglobulin homologues from man, guinea pig, rat and rabbit. Using radioimmunoassay, western blotting, affinity chromatography, and Scatchard analysis, the affinities and binding sites of the MoAb were analysed. All antibodies were more or less cross-reactive, but most showed a major specificity for one or two of the alpha 1-microglobulin homologues. None of the antibodies was directed against the carbohydrate moiety of alpha 1-microglobulin. Six of the MoAb had high affinity for the antigen and four of these were directed towards the same part of the molecule though differing in their species specificity. Five showed lower affinity for the antigen and were mainly directed towards epitopes on other parts of the molecule. Only some of the antibodies could block the proliferation of lymphocytes induced by human alpha 1-microglobulin. The blocking efficiency of the different antibodies was similar when tested on the stimulation of human or mouse lymphocytes, suggesting that the same part of the alpha 1-microglobulin molecule is responsible in both species. The magnitude of blocking by the different MoAb was not related to their affinities, emphasizing the importance of where on the alpha 1-microglobulin molecule, rather than how strongly, they bind. The binding of the strongest blocking antibody was shown to be directed to a C-terminal peptide of rat alpha 1-microglobulin, indicating that this part of alpha 1-microglobulin is important for the mitogenic effects. Thus the panel of anti-alpha 1-microglobulin MoAb should be a valuable tool for structural and functional studies of alpha 1-microglobulin.

  • Mitogenic effect of alpha 1-microglobulin on mouse lymphocytes. Evidence of T- and B-cell cooperation, B-cell proliferation, and a low-affinity receptor on mononuclear cells
  • 1990
  • Ingår i: Scandinavian Journal of Immunology. - : Wiley. - 0300-9475 .- 1365-3083. ; 32:1, s. 37-44

    • Human alpha 1-m microglobulin (alpha 1-m), a low molecular weight plasma protein, was found to exert mitogenic effects on mouse lymphocytes from lymph nodes and spleen. The stimulatory effects appeared to be strain-restricted: alpha 1-m induced a varying degree of proliferation of lymphocytes from three strains, whereas one strain responded poorly. Experiments with lymphocyte subpopulations showed only weak stimulatory effects of alpha 1-m on purified T and B lymphocytes cultivated alone. The addition of mitomycin-treated cells of the other subpopulation could not restore the proliferative responses in either T or B lymphocytes. Strong stimulations were recorded only when both T and B lymphocytes were present, indicating that the T and B lymphocytes cooperate to achieve the proliferation. However, FACS studies on cultured splenocytes indicated that the proliferating cells are predominantly B lymphocytes. These data extend our earlier findings of a mitogenic effect of alpha 1-m on guinea pig lymphocytes. Furthermore, results were obtained indicating the presence of a receptor on mononuclear cells. Iodine-labelled alpha 1-m was bound to mononuclear cells prepared from spleens, and the binding could be blocked by an excess of non-labelled alpha 1-m. Scatchard plotting of the data gave an equilibrium constant of 0.7 x 10(5)/M for the binding between alpha 1-m and the receptor. Together with the documented inhibitory activity of alpha 1-m on antigen-driven proliferation of lymphocytes, these results suggest an immunoregulatory role for alpha 1-m.
