HLA-DR residues accessible under the peptide-binding groove contribute to polymorphic antibody epitopes

Many residues involved in polymorphic antibody-binding epitopes on class II molecules are located on the -helix of DRβ chains. Although they have received less attention, residues in the peptide-binding groove and second domain of the DRβ chain may also be critical for polymorphic anti-DR antibody epitopes. In this study, we used transfectants expressing site-directed mutations at positions in the HLA-DR β₁ and β₂ domains and flow cytometry to define the epitopes of several polymorphic anti-DR antibodies. Both DR(β 1^*0403) residues 14 and 25 were shown to be involved in the epitopes of mAbs DA6. 164, HU-20, Q5/6, and 50D6, and DR(β 1^*0701) residue 14 was shown to be critical for the epitopes of two DR7-specific mAbs, SFR16-DR7M and TAL 13. 1. Unlike most other residues shown to be important in antibody-binding epitopes, residue 14 is located in the floor of the peptide-binding groove and residue 25 is in an outer loop, each with their side chains pointing down, such that antibodies may directly contact these residues from below the binding groove. Two residues in the β₂ domain, β180 and β181, were also shown to be involved in the epitopes of three polymorphic anti-DR mAbs, NFLD.D1, NFLD.M1, and LY9. Although these two residues are close to the transmembrane domain in the linear sequence, their solvent accessibility in the DR1 structures is quite impressive. Our data provide new evidence that residues accessible under the peptidebinding groove contribute to polymorphic antibody-binding epitopes.     

Diverse locations of amino acids in HLA-DR beta chains involved in polymorphic antibody binding epitopes on DR(alpha, beta 1*0101), DR(alpha, beta 1*1101), and DR(alpha,beta 3*0202) molecules.

In a previous study, we used transfectants expressing hybrid HLA-DR(beta 1*0403)/DR(beta 1*0701) chains to map sequences involved in polymorphic antibody binding epitopes on DR(alpha, beta 1*0403) or DR(alpha, beta 1*0701) molecules. Amino acids 1-40 of the beta 1 domain were found to make the major contributions to most of the antibody binding epitopes studied. To begin to localize sequences that contribute to polymorphic antibody epitopes on DR(alpha,beta 1*0101), DR(alpha,beta 1*1101) and DR(alpha,beta 3*0202) molecules, we used indirect immunofluorescence and flow cytometry to assess the binding of mAb to transfectants expressing hybrid DR(beta 1*0101)/DR(beta 1*1101) or DR(beta 1*1101)/DR(beta 3*0202) chains that divide the DR beta chain into three segments: amino acids 1-40, 41-97, and the beta 2 domain. The results indicate that amino acids 41-97 of the beta 1 domain on DR(beta 1*0101), DR(beta 1*1101), or DR(beta 3*0202) are critical in most of the epitopes, including those recognized by human antibodies MP4 and MP12, and mouse mAb GS88.2, I-LR1, 21r5, and 7.3.19.1, whereas amino acids 1-40 of DR(beta 1*1101) are critical in the epitope recognized by the MCS-7 mAb, and both segments 1-40 and 41-97 of DR(beta 1*1101) are important in the epitopes recognized by the I-LR2 and UL-52 mAbs. Based on these data and comparison of DR beta allelic protein sequences, the residues that may play critical roles in these antibody binding epitopes are predicted.     

Substance P potentiates 5-HT3 receptor-mediated current in rat trigeminal ganglion neurons

The present study aimed to investigate the interaction between the coexistent SP receptor and 5-HT3 receptor in trigeminal ganglion (TG) neurons using whole-cell patch clamp technique. The majority of the neurons examined responded to 5-HT with an inward current (I5-HT) (78.2%, 79/101) that could be blocked by 5-HT3 receptor antagonist, ICS-205,930. The I5-HT was potentiated by preapplication of SP (10(-10) to 10(-8) M) in most 5-HT-sensitive cells(78.5%, 62/79). Coapplication of SP and GR-82334, antagonist of NK1 receptor, had no enhancing effect on I5-HT. The concentration-response curves for 5-HT with and without SP preapplication show that: (1) the threshold 5-HT concentrations with and without SP preapplication are basically the same, while SP preapplication increased the maximal value of I5-HT by 38.0% of its control; (2) the EC50 values of the curves with and without SP pretreatment are very close, i.e. 1.89 x 10(-5) M and 2.08 x 10(-5) M (P > 0.1; n = 9), respectively. Intracellular dialysis of GDP-beta-S, a non-hydrolyzable GDP analog, and GF-109203X, a selective protein kinase C inhibitor, removed the SP potentiation of I5-HT. These results may offer a clue to understanding the mechanism underlying the generation and/or regulation of peripheral pain caused by tissue damage inflammation, etc.
