molecular internalization of a region of myelin basic protein.the conformation of myelin encephalitogenic or basic protein (bp) was investigated with a double-antibody radioimmunoassay by studying the reaction of bp or its fragments with antibodies produced in two rabbits against peptide 43-88 linked to rabbit serum albumin. both antisera reacted well with peptide 43-88 but showed little or no reaction with bp. absorption of these antisera with a bp-immunoadsorbent did not remove the antibody activity against peptide 43-88. within the region of peptide 43- ...197768996
biological properties of human leukocyte interferon components.human leukocyte interferon, purified approximately 1000-fold by affinity chromatography on immobilized anti-interferon globulins and sds-sephadex filtration, was resolved into one major and one minor component by adsorption chromatography on hydroxylapatite and electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels. these components were indistinguishable in their capacity to protect bovine, porcine and murine cells, and the antiviral activities of both were equally susceptible to reduction by beta-mercaptoetha ...197769014
staining reticulin in beef dorsal lymph nodes for electron microscopy.reticulin has been classically identified by virtue of its argyrophilia, as observed by light microscopy. the similiarity between reticulin and collagen has been a matter for considerable discussion. this paper describes the application of a silver-staining procedure which demonstrates the fine structure of these fibres when studied by electron microscopy, giving a direct indication of the morphological identity of the argyrophilic structures, i.e. reticulin, with collagen. beef lymph node tissu ...197769030

[modification of the immune reaction by antigen-immunosuppressive-agent conjugates. ii. immunogenicity of antigen-immunosuppressive-agent conjugates].the maintenance of specific immunogenicity of carrier proteins is a necessary condition for the successful use of antigen-immunosuppressive agent-conjugates (aic) for an antigen specific suppression of the immune response. the experimental results indicate that, in spite of the binding of 6-mercaptopurine (6-mp) and toluyl (t) to bovine gamma globulin (bgg) and human serum albumin (hsa), the carrier specific immunogenicity is not significantly altered. the intradermal application of 6-mp-bgg and ...197669373
[modification of the immune reaction by antigen-immunosuppressive agent-conjugates. iii. physiocochemical, antigenic and functional properties of 6-mercaptopurine coupled carrier proteins].6-mercaptopurine (mp) conjugates of bovine gamma globulin (bgg) and human serum albumin (hsa) with increasing numbers of mp-groups per protein molecule were prepared and some physicochemical and antigenic properties studied. the electrophoretic mobility increased proportionally to the degree of substitution. in the same manner the formation of high molecular weight aggregates increased. a loss of bgg and hsa specific determinants was observed too. the physicochemical and antigenic properties of ...197669374
[modification of the immune reaction by antigen-immunosuppressive-agent conjugates. iv. studies on the specific suppression of humoral immune response in guinea pigs by antigen-immunosuppressive-agent conjugates].bovine gamma globulin (bgg) antigens were modified by the binding of 6-mercaptopurine and toluyl residues, and their influence on the humoral immune response in guinea pigs was investigated. the antigen-immunosuppressive agent-conjugates (aic) were different, depending on the method used for their preparation and the number of coupled residues per one molecule of bgg. conjugates denoted as mpi-n-bgg were prepared by special chemical binding of corresponding thioisocyanates. mpii-n-bgg were synth ...197669375
[studies on the significance of antigen in the 6-mercapopurine-influenced humoral antibody response in guinea pigs].the mechanism of suppression of humoral immune response to dinitrophenylated bovine gamma globulin (dnp23-bgg), human serum albumin (hsa), and trinitrophenylated sheep red blood cells (tnp-srbc) by 6-mercaptopurine (6-mp) was studied in guinea pigs. following the intradermal application of the antigens emulsified in complete (cfa) or incomplete freund's adjuvant (ifa) each test animal was given 6-mp, 10 mg/kg/day for 7 days. this treatment resulted in a significant suppression of the anti bgg an ...197669376
cell-mediated immune response to guinea pig and bovine basic proteins of myelin in lewis and pvg rats and their hybrids.the in vitro cell-mediated immune response of rat lymph node cells (lnc) to guinea pig and bovine encephalitogenic protein (ep) has been studied with a lnc transformation test. lnc were obtained from either lewis, pvg, or f1 (lewis x pvg) rats 28 days after challenge with guinea pig or bovine ep in freund's complete adjuvant (fca) of different mycobacterium content. no differences between the strains or their hybrids in lnc response could be shown if stimulated with sensitizing ep, despite the g ...197769388
[the influence of 6-mercaptopurine on the humoral immune response in guinea pig. 2. the influence on formation of complement binding antibodies (author's transl)].the effectivity of treatment with 10 mg 6-mercaptopurine/kg/day--beginning on the day of antigen injection and continuing for seven days--on the synthesis of complement binding antibodies is very different. the formation of gamma-2-antibodies against bgg was nearly complete suppressed, an influence on the anti-dnp-gamma-2-antibody formation was not detectable and the antibody formation against hsa was enhanced. the results suggest that the kind of antigen is very important for the immunosuppress ...197769392
[conjugation of bovine gammaglobulin to l-asparaginase (e. coli) (author's transl)].bovine gammaglobulin-l-asparaginase conjugates were prepared with an enzymic activity of about 30 iu/mg. glutardialdehyde was used as bifunctional reagent for the cross-linking in an optimal concentration of 0.16 mg/10 mg protein. the both components were found in the conjugates in a ratio of 1:1.5. the recovery was about 25% of the initial protein amounts. the antigenic specificity of the globulin component decreased up to 60%, the enzymic activity also up to 60% by the conjugation.197769393
[effect of l-asparaginase on humoral immune response against protein antigens in mice (author's transl)].the immune response of cba-mice against alum adsorbed bgg is depressed by daily injections of 20, 40 and 80 i.u. of asparaginase (crasnitin) from the first day before to the second day after immunisation. after a period of 14 or 21 days the antibody levels slowly rises again. the early igm-response is not altered. pretreatment of the animals with bgg-asparaginase conjugate has not any influence on the immune reaction. the conjugate is because its high molecular weight more immunogenic than the b ...197769394
[the influence of 6-mercaptopurine on the humoral immune response in guinea pig. 1. the importance of antigen and adjuvans (author's transl)].following an intradermal immunization of guinea pigs with dinitrophenylated bovine gamma globulin (dnp23-bgg), human serum albumin (hsa) and trinitrophenylated sheep red blood cells (tnp-srbc) emulsified in complete or in incomplete freund's adjuvans the effectivity of 6-mercaptopurine (6-mp) on the formation of specific antibodies was investigated. by application of 10 mg 6-mp/kf/day--in guinea pigs a significant depression of antibody formation against bgg could be demonstrated if treatment is ...197769395
[the macrophage disappearance reaction in guinea pigs sensitized with bovine gamma globulin or human scrum albumin (author's transl)].the macrophage disappearance reaction (mdr) is a suitable test for detection of cell mediated immunity against bovine gamma globulin (bgg) and human serum albumin (hsa) in guinea pigs. the mdr is a technical simple, good manipulable, and quantifiable test. the optimal test conditions for the antigens bgc and hsa are the following: peritoneal exudat cells (pec) were stimulated with paraffin oil. on the 5th day after receiving oil the animals were injected with 80 microgram bgg or 30 microgram hsa ...197769396
evidence suggesting the presence of common antigenic determinant between dynein and tubulin.the present experiments showed that the guinea pig antiserum prepared against the main polypeptides of 14 s dynein from tetrahymena cilia reacted with sea urchin sperm flagellar dynein and with bovine brain high molecular weight protein to give rise to a precipitin line confluent with that formed between the antiserum and tetrahymena dynein. furthermore, it was found that this antiserum also reacted with tubulins from tetrahymena cilia, sea urchin sperm flagella and bovine brain to give rise to ...197769447
a methodology for the production of carbohydrate-specific antibody.8-methoxycarbonyloctyl glycosides are recommended as precursors for the preparation of artificial antigens that possess strongly immunodominant carbohydrate antigenic determinants. the preparation and immunochemical properties of a selected number of these antigens are reported to demonstrate the high levels of hapten-specific antibodies that are normally achieved using standard immunization schedules. the method, based on glycoside synthesis, promises to make available a wide spectrum of well d ...197769478
kinetics of the inactivation of human and bovine trypsins and chymotrypsins by alpha1-proteinase inhibitor and of their reactivation by alpha2-macroglobulin.the time dependency of inactivation of human cationic trypsin and chymotrypsin ii and of bovine trypsin and alpha-chymotrypsin by human serum has been investigated. since the molar concentration of serum alpha1-proteinase inhibitor is much higher than that of other inhibitors, this time dependence could be used to calculate the rate constants kass for the association of alpha1-proteinase inhibitor with the four proteases. the association process was found to be second order, with kass ranging fr ...197769511

squirrel monkey retrovirus: an endogenous virus of a new world primate.squirrel monkey retrovirus (smrv) was isolated by cocultivation of squirrel monkey lung cells with canine cells. 3h-labeled 60-70s smrv rna, isolated from virus grown in canine cells, hybridized to the same extent and to the same cot1/2 value to the dna of all tissues of all squirrel monkeys tested; cot1/2 values show that smrv proviral sequences are present in the low repetitive range. no smrv proviral sequences were detected in tissues from a variety of other new world monkeys, old world monke ...197769724
characterization of a retravirus isolated from squirrel monkeys.a new retravirus (smrv) isolated from a squirrel monkey, saimiri sciureus, has an mg2+-dependen reverse transcriptase and a buoyant density of 1.17 g/cm3 in sucrose and 1.21 g/cm3 in cesium chloride, similar to the mouse mammary tumor virus and the mason-pfizer monkey virus. the polypeptide patter of smrv as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was distinct from the reported polypeptide patterns of known retraviruses. four major polypeptides of molecular weight ...197769728
biochemical and immunological characterization of the major envelope glycoprotein of bovine leukemia virus.the major envelope glycoprotein of bovine leukemia virus was isolated by lectin-bound sepharose and deae-cellulose column chromatography. this protein was shown to have a molecular weight of about 41,000 and to lack detectable immunological cross-reactivity with glycoproteins of other oncornaviruses. sera obtained from 100% of cattle examined with clinically diagnosed lymphosarcoma contained high-titered antibody to 125i-labeled bovine leukemia virus glycoprotein, whereas sera from animals in a ...197769730
enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa) for detection of human reovirus-like agent of infantile gastroenteritis.an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa) was developed for the detection of the human reovirus-like agent of infantile gastroenteritis in human stools. the results of the assay can be read either with a simple colorimeter or the naked eye. investigations with 143 samples from children with gastroenteritis and 75 samples from children with other illnesses showed that the elisa was as sensitive as electron microscopy or radioimmunoassay for detection of this agent. in addition, the elisa was s ...197769877
a new factor that may control collagen resorption.specific collagenases responsible for the initial enzymic step leading to degradation of the collagen fibrils of connective tissues have been found in both latent and active forms. the most important factor controlling the local activity of collagenase extracellularly may be an inhibitor that is synthesised by connective tissues, and it is proposed that latent enzymes are all enzyme-inhibitor complexes.197769939

[conduct of bacillus subtilis transformation in mice under conditions of immunologic suppression of exogenous dnaase 1 activity].bacillus subtilis transformation was conducted in the abdominal cavity of mice. the frequency of transformation was considerable decreased when bovine dna-ase 1 (3-- 5microgram) was injected intraperitoneally to these animals. immune rabbit gamma-globulins containing antibodies to bovine dna-ase 1 inhibited in vivo the activity of dna-ase 1, protected transforming dna from the hydrolyzing effect of this enzyme. this model can be utilized in search for ways to preserve dna injected into the anima ...197770246
role of gangliosides in the uptake and retrograde axonal transport of cholera and tetanus toxin as compared to nerve growth factor and wheat germ agglutinin.previous investigations have shown that tetanus toxin is transported retrogradely in all peripheral neurons whereas the transport of ngf is confined to adrenergic and sensory neurons. other macromolecules with molecular weights and general physiochemical properties similar to ngf and tetanus toxin (e.g., cytochrome c, insulin, horseradish peroxidase and bovine serum albumin) are not transported to a detectable extent if injected in comparable molar concentrations. for tetanus toxin, which is tra ...197770259
effects of albumin and other proteins during assay of amylase activity.addition of albumin, gamma-globulin, alpha-casein or submaxillary mucin to the assay system for chromogenic measurement of human or rat amylase with blue starch increased the amylase activity, albumin having the most effect. these proteins seemed to increase the activity by protecting amylase from inactivation. amylase activity was higher in urine samples showing proteinuria than in urine samples without detectable protein. it is concluded that amylase assay is more reliable when a final concent ...197770283

crystallographic studies of bovine beta2-microglobulin.crystals of the bovine milk protein lactollin yield x-ray diffraction data extending to a resolution of 2.8 a. lactollin is a bovine analogue of beta2-microglobulin, a protein that is homologous in amino acid sequence to the constant domains of immunoglobulins and is the light chain of the human and murine major histocompatability antigens. the protein crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group p2(1)2(1)2(1) with a = 77.4, b = 47.9, and c = 34.3 a. the unit cell parameters and physical chemica ...197771731
[comparative electrophoretic study of the molecular forms of alkaline phosphatase in the leukocytes of agricultural animals].the alkaline phosphatase enzyme, isolated by morton's method from leukocytes of sheep, goats, and pigs gave after agarose elctrophoresis two isoenzyme fractions moving to the positive pole at the sites of the alpha 1- and alpha 2-globulins of the blood serum. in bovine leukocytes, besides these two fractions there was a third one that moved more slowly in the zone of the beta-globulins. in horses the alkaline phosphatase of leukocytes produced a wide band within the zones of the beta-globulins a ...197771781
[demonstration of the infectious rhinotracheitis-pustular vuluovaginitis virus (ibr-ipv) in the placenta and aborted fetuses of cows].a well expressed correlation was found to exist between the immunofluorescence and the histologic methods in the demonstration of ibr-ipv infection of fetuses and placentae in 75 cases of spontaneous undiagnosed abortions. if those that were positive by the immunofluorescence method were 100 per cent as many as 87 per cent of them showed coincidence with the results obtained by the histologic method. the isolation of the virus of ibr-ipv coincided in 44 per cent of the cases only. clearest speci ...197771782

[inhibition of dnase i activity in vivo].immune gamma-globulins containing antibodies to bovine dnase i inhibit activities of bovine and mouse dnase i both in vitro and in vivo. bovine dnase i was used as exogenous dnase i in the in vivo studies and was injected to mice intraperitoneally in combination with gamma-globulins. the serous fluid of mice was used as a source of endogenous dnase i. both in in vitro and in vivo studies immune gamma-globulins caused a practically complete inhibition of bovine dnase i activity, whereas the activ ...197771924
[induction of transplantable leukemia-like syndromes in mice by administration of antigens and immunostimulants].splenomegaly characterised by myeloid metaplasia was induced in balb/c mice by the injection of antigens and immunostimulants. in difference from leukemoid reaction, this syndrome was transmissible both by the plasma and by the splenic cells. small virus-like particles (30--50 nm) were revealed in the plasma, and rna-containing viruses of type c--in the splenic cells.197771928
reverse transcription of thyroglobulin 33-s mrna.bovine thyroglobulin 33-s mrna has been used as a template for the synthesis of a complementary dna, using rna-directed dna polymerase from the avian myeloblastosis virus. the yield of the reaction was relatively poor and the size of the cdna did not exceed 10 s. nevertheless, a copy of high specific radioactivity (approximately 10(7) counts. min-1 microgram-1) could be obtained which hybridized specifically back to its template with an rot1/2 value about 5 times higher than that observed in hyb ...197771991

vitamin d binding factors in bovine blood.both 25 [25,26-hydrogen-3] hydroxycholecalciferol and [1alpha,2alpha-hydrogen-3] cholecalciferol were added to bovine plasma in vitro. analysis by gel-filtration and ion exchange chromatography, electrophoresis, ultracentrifugation, competitive binding specificity studies, and plasma stripping showed that vitamin d circulated with a protein of alpha-globulin mobility. this globulin had a much higher affinity for 25-hydroxycholecalciferol while vitamin d3 appeared to be associated first with an a ...197772082

quantitation of cellular deoxyribonucleic acid by flow microfluorometry.this report characterizes for the first time an easy, reproducible means of standardizing the relative fluorescent units normally reported for flow microfluorometry. absolute values for deoxyribonucleic acid/cell are obtained by using nucleated red blood cells as references. cell were selected and characterized for the quantitative analysis of deoxyribonucleic acid per cell over a range from 2 pg/cell to 93 pg/cell using literature values for species having nucleated erythrocytes. fluorescence s ...197772097
histologic and biochemical identification and characterization of an elastin in cartilage.histochemical and chemical techniques have been used to identify, isolate and characterize elastin from certain bovine cartilages. the results strongly suggest that in addition to fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells, chondroblasts also synthesize elastin. some of the possible functions of elastin in elastic cartilages are discussed and the possiblity of a new type of elastin perhaps unique to cartilage is suggested.197772098
