Cross reactivity between IA-2 and phogrin/IA-2β in binding of autoantibodies in IDDM

Summary Patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) possess antibodies to the cytoplasmic domains of two closely related tyrosine phosphatase-like proteins, IA-2 and phogrin, previously detected as 40 kDa and 37 kDa tryptic fragments, respectively. A higher proportion of IDDM patients possess antibodies to IA-2 than to phogrin, and autoimmunity to phogrin might arise through cross-reactivity with the highly homologous IA-2. In this study, we have investigated the major regions of IA-2 recognized by antibodies in IDDM patients and examined the ability of phogrin to block antibody binding to these regions as a measure of cross-reactivity. Analysis of antibody binding to in vitro transcribed and translated polypeptides representing different regions of the cytoplasmic domain of IA-2 identified five different patterns of reactivity with antibodies in IDDM. Protein footprinting analysis, whereby polypeptide fragments generated on protease treatment of immune complexes are studied, indicated considerable heterogeneity in antibody recognition of IA-2, even between sera with similar reactivity to deletion mutants. Blocking studies with recombinant phogrin indicated that IA-2 antibodies recognize epitopes that are both unique to IA-2 and shared with phogrin. The amino-terminal 150 amino acids of the cytoplasmic domain of IA-2 encompass epitopes that are not represented on phogrin, whereas shared epitopes are localized within the carboxy-terminal 220 amino acids. The results demonstrate considerable heterogeneity between IDDM patients in autoantibody recognition of IA-2 in IDDM, whereas antibody recognition of phogrin is restricted in most patients to epitopes also present on IA-2.

脑脊液髓鞘碱性蛋白自身抗体在脱髓鞘疾病的研究

脑脊液髓鞘碱性蛋白(MBP)自身抗体固相发光免疫分析法,是一项免疫检测新技术,目前国外尚未见到对脱髓病研究的报道。本文作者于1988.5～1989.3首先采用本法并证实其可靠性后,进入临床研究,对36例脱髓鞘病及20例其他CNS疾病者的对照组,用三项免疫指标行对比分析。CSFMBP自身抗体含量及其和同量IgG自身抗体的百分比值分别为69.23±11.95ng/ml及3.24±0.52ug/mg±gG和对照组相比,P值分别为<0.05及<0.001,有显著差异,对本病诊断有意义。

Identification of GRASP-1 as a novel 97 kDa autoantigen localized to endosomes

We have identified an autoantigen that is recognized by antibodies from an 18-year-old female with a history of recurrent infections who later in her clinical course developed Raynaud's phenomenon and telangiectasias. By indirect immunofluorescence (IIF), the index serum produced a unique cytoplasmic discrete speckled (CDS) staining pattern that partially colocalized with early endosome antigen 1 (EEA1) but not Golgi complex or other cytoplasmic organelles in HEp-2 cells. When HEp-2 cells were treated with 0.1 N HCl, the cytoplasmic speckled staining of the index serum was markedly decreased, suggesting that the reactive antigen was soluble. Western blot analysis showed a reactive approximately 97 kDa protein in a saline soluble protein preparation from HeLa cells. Mass spectrometric analysis of the excised 97 kDa band that was immunoprecipitated from HeLa cell extracts identified GRASP-1 as a possible target. The index serum and anti-GRASP-1 antibodies colocalized to structures in the cytoplasm of HEp-2 cells. Synthetic peptides representing the full-length GRASP-1 protein were used to identify reactive epitopes. Like many other cytoplasmic autoantigens, GRASP-1 has numerous coiled-coil domains throughout the protein with the exception of short segments at the amino and carboxyl terminus.     

Differential effects of interleukin-4 in peptide induced autoimmunity

BALB/c mice immunized with multimeric DWEYSVWLSN develop IgG1 anti-DNA antibodies and glomerular immunoglobulin deposits, leading us to investigate the role of IL-4 in this model of antigen induced lupus. Splenocytes from DWEYSVWLSN immunized mice secreted IL-4 but not gamma-interferon. Following peptide immunization, IgG1 anti-peptide and anti-DNA antibodies were significantly higher in IL-4 wild type mice, while IgM and IgG3 anti-DNA levels were significantly higher in IL-4 knockout mice. Titers of IgG anti-laminin and anti-histone, but not anti-Sm/RNP and anti-cardiolipin antibodies, were significantly higher in the IL-4 wild type group. Glomerular immunoglobulin deposition was substantially decreased in IL-4 knockout mice. We conclude that while IL-4 does not materially affect the generation of some autoantibody responses associated with peptide induced autoimmunity, IL-4 deficiency inhibits kidney immunoglobulin deposition. The effect of IL-4 on humoral autoimmunity in lupus is complex, and is dependent on genetic background, the antigenic trigger and stage of disease.     

Characterization of host CD4+ T lymphocytes in mice neonatally tolerized to alloantigens

BALB/c mice injected at birth with semi-allogeneic F1 spleen cells become tolerant to alloantigens as shown by their CTL unresponsiveness to the corresponding alloantigen and the persistence of donor F1 cells into the BALB/c host. Moreover, these mice develop a transient systemic lupus erythematosis-like autoimmune syndrome characterized by splenomegaly, glomerulonephritis, thrombocytopenia and abnormal serological findings, such as several autoantibodies and IgG1 hypergammaglobulinemia. Recent studies done in our laboratory have shown that donor F1 B cells persisting in the host are responsible for the production of autoantibodies and must be activated in vivo by the host CD4⁺ T lymphocytes in a MHC class II-restricted fashion. In the present work, we have focused our attention on the ability of splenic CD4⁺ T cells recovered at different periods from BALB/c mice injected at birth with (CBA/Ca × BALB. Igh^b) Fl spleen cells to interact with and activate F1 semi-allogeneic spleen cells in vitro. We show that (i) only CD4⁺ T cells from 2- and 3-week-old tolerant BALB/c mice preferentially produce IL-4 and IL-5 in response to a F1 semi-allogeneic in vitro stimulation, (ii) CD4⁺ T cells purified from 3-week-old tolerant BALB/c mice are able to induce in vitro IgG and IgM production by F1 B cells. Taken together, these results strongly suggest that host CD4+ T cells, belonging to the TH2 subset progressively lose their reactivity towards the F1 semi-allogeneic persistent B cells, reaching a state of unresponsiveness that correlates with the disappearance of serum autoantibodies and autoimmune pathology.

No evidence for humoral autoimmunity against cardiomyocytes,adrenergic or muscarinic receptors in patients with Tako-Tsubo cardiomyopathy

Background

An association between Tako-Tsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) and underlying malignancies has been observed, suggesting that TTC might be the consequence of paraneoplastic phenomena. This study investigates the presence of autoantibodies against cardiomyocytes as well as adrenergic (β₁, β₂) and muscarinic (M2) receptors in patients with TTC.
