Isolation and characterization of colonic tissue-bound antibodies from patients with idiopathic ulcerative colitis.

چکیده
To determine if specific anticolon antibodies bound to colonic mucosa occur in ulcerative colitis, we obtained surgical specimens of colon from five patients with ulcerative colitis, one patient with diverticulitis, and three control subjects with carcinoma. Two specimens of ileum and cecum were also obtained from patients with Crohn ileocolitis. Tissue was homogenized and washed and bound Ig was eluted by citrate buffer, pH 3.2. Concentrated eluates of all specimens from patients with ulcerative colitis reacted with antisera to kappa and gamma and not with antisera to alpha and mu chains. Corresponding eluates from all other specimens did not react with these antisera, but did react with antialbumin. The presence of IgG in ulcerative colitis eluates was also determined by immunoelectrophoresis, immunocoprecipitation, and affinity chromatography with antisera against human IgG. Indirect immunofluorescence and uptake of radiolabeled antibody demonstrated antigenic sites in diseased colonic epithelium of biopsy specimens obtained from six additional patients with ulcerative colitis and three patients with idiopathic proctitis, but not in patients with Crohn disease, nonspecific diarrhea, and bacillary dysentery and control subjects. Although the role of colitis colon-bound antibody in the pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis is unclear, local antibody-antigen complexes may initiate colonic epithelial cytolysis by various immunologically mediated mechanisms.

Isolation and characterization of a colonic autoantigen specifically recognized by colon tissue-bound immunoglobulin G from idiopathic ulcerative colitis.
Patients with idiopathic ulcerative colitis (UC) have a colonbound antibody (CCA-IgG) that reacts with colon tissue extracts. We have partially characterized a colonic protein that is specifically recognized by CCA-IgG. CCA-IgG was eluted from operative colon specimens from 10 patients with UC. A colon tissue-bound IgG was similarly eluted from six patients with Crohn's colitis, two with ischem...
متن کاملAnti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies in ulcerative colitis, and its relation with disease activity
Background : Ulcerative colitis an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and chronically idiopathic immune related that associates with extraintestinal manifestations such as arthritis. Despite of the highly specificity ofanti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) antibodies for rheumatoid arthritis, their role in IBD remains unclear . There are only a few studies on the prevalence of anti-CCP antibo...
متن کاملInvestigation of the relationship between the Th17/IL-23 pathway and innate-adaptive immune system in TNBS-induced colitis in rats
Objective(s): This study was aimed at investigating immune activations of the 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitis model in colonic mucosa by immunohistochemical and Western blot methods. Materials and Methods: For this purpose, 16 female Wistar albino rats were divided into two random groups of control (n=8) and colitis (n=8). The experimental colitis model was induced by...
متن کاملCirculating antibodies against human colonic extract enriched with a 40 kDa protein in patients with ulcerative colitis.
We have previously described a 40 kDa colonic protein(s) which is specifically recognised by tissue-bound immunoglobulin G obtained from the colon of patients with ulcerative colitis. We now report the presence of circulating antibodies against this antigen using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay with a highly enriched preparation of the 40 kDa protein from normal colon extracts. Serum was c...
متن کاملThe presence in experimental animals of a colon specific Mr 40,000 protein(s) with relevance to ulcerative colitis.
In patients with ulcerative colitis a colon tissue bound IgG and serum antibodies against an Mr 40,000 colonic protein(s) has been identified. Using an anti-Mr 40,000 protein monoclonal antibody, 7E12H12, by an immunocytochemical method, the protein was localised in human tissue exclusively to colonic epithelial cells. In this study the presence of the Mr 40,000 protein was assessed in experime...
