Anti-Mac-1 selectively inhibits the mouse and human type three complement receptor
نویسندگان
چکیده
Anti-Mac-1 (M1/70), a rat monoclonal antibody that reacts with mouse and human macrophages, polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL), and natural killer cells, selectively inhibited complement receptor-mediated rosetting by murine macrophages and human PMNL. Preincubation of macrophages with anti-Mac-1 inhibited formation of rosettes with sheep erythrocytes bearing IgM antibody and murine C3 fragments. No inhibition was observed when other monoclonal antibodies that react with macrophages (such as anti-Ly5, anti-H-2, or anti-pan-leukocyte) were tested at 10-fold higher concentrations. Anti-Mac-1 did not affect macrophage Fc receptor-mediated rosetting. Erythrocytes bearing homogeneous human C3 fragments C3b (EC3b) or C3bi (EC3bi) were used to test the specificity of the murine macrophage and human PMNL complement receptor inhibited by anti-Mac-1. In both cases, anti-Mac-1 inhibited CR3-mediated rosetting of EC3bi but not CR1-dependent rosetting of EC3b. The results show that Mac-1 is either identical to CR3 or closely associated with CR3 function. This is one of the first cases in which a monoclonal antibody-defined differentiation antigen has been associated with a specific cell surface function.

Opsonin-independent phagocytosis of group B streptococci: role of complement receptor type three.
The role of complement receptor type 3 (CR3) in nonopsonic recognition of group B streptococci (GBS) by macrophages was investigated. Monoclonal anti-CR3 (anti-Mac-1) inhibited phagocytosis of GBS strains by as much as 50% in serum-free cultures of both mouse peritoneal macrophages and the macrophage cell line PU5-1.8. GBS uptake was unaffected by the presence of anti-C3 or salicylhydroxamate, ...
متن کاملActivation of mouse peritoneal macrophages by monoclonal antibodies to Mac-1 (complement receptor type 3)
Several features of activation of mouse peritoneal macrophages were elicited by 1-2-d exposure to submicrogram concentrations of anti-Mac-1 (M1/70), a rat monoclonal antibody that reacts with the alpha chain of complement receptor type 3 (Mac-1). The changes induced included enhanced capacity to secrete H2O2 when triggered with PMA, decreased secretion of proteins, increased expression of Ia an...
متن کاملDesign and development of TT30, a novel C3d-targeted C3/C5 convertase inhibitor for treatment of human complement alternative pathway-mediated diseases.
To selectively modulate human complement alternative pathway (CAP) activity implicated in a wide range of acute and chronic inflammatory conditions and to provide local cell surface and tissue-based inhibition of complement-induced damage, we developed TT30, a novel therapeutic fusion protein linking the human complement receptor type 2 (CR2/CD21) C3 fragment (C3frag = iC3b, C3dg, C3d)-binding ...
متن کاملExpression of the leukocyte functional molecule (LFA-1) on mouse platelets.
Platelet involvement in adhesion, hemostasis, and immune adherence is mediated by functionally associated cell surface molecules. Platelets are also involved in cytolytic reactions, but little is known about the mechanisms or biologic significance of these processes. To further investigate cell surface molecules concerned with platelet function, antisera against mouse platelets, thymocytes, and...
متن کاملComparison of intravenous gamma globulin and a monoclonal anti-Fc receptor antibody as inhibitors of immune clearance in vivo in mice.
Fc-receptor-mediated clearance and nonspecific phagocytic clearance were assessed after the infusion of monomeric human IgG, heat-aggregated human IgG, and a monoclonal anti-mouse macrophage FcII receptor antibody (2.4G2) into normal mice. Each agent blocked Fc-receptor function in vivo, but 2.4G2 was much more potent per microgram than the other agents. Monomeric IgG in blocking doses did not ...
