TLDR
Examination of the labeled molecules precipitated from detergent extracts of spleen cells and thymocytes iodinated by the lactoperoxidase technique by SDS-PAGE confirm that there are structural differences between the antigens found on B and T lymphocytes.
Abstract
A cell hybrid has been selected from fusion of a mouse myeloma and rat spleen cells immunized against mouse lymphoma cells that produces monoclonal antibody against the mouse lymphocyte surface glycoprotein, T200. Antibody binding assays employing the monoclonal antibody show that there are about 50,000-100,000 molecules of T200 glycoprotein on mouse thymocytes and that similar antigens are present on spleen and bone marrow but not detected on nonlymphoid tissues. Examination of the labeled molecules precipitated from detergent extracts of spleen cells and thymocytes iodinated by the lactoperoxidase technique by SDS-PAGE confirm that there are structural differences between the antigens found on B and T lymphocytes. The B-cell glycoprotein consists of at least one component of apparent mol wt 220,000 on SDS-PAGE, while the T-cell glycoprotein has an apparent mol wt of about 190,000.

Xenogeneic monoclonal antibodies to mouse lymphoid differentiation antigens.

TL;DR: This paper used hybridoma monoclonal antibodies obtained after immunization of mice with rat cells to study rat cell-surface antigens present on subpopulations of rat lymphocytes.

T cell receptor-proximal signals are sustained in peripheral microclusters and terminated in the central supramolecular activation cluster.

TL;DR: It is proposed that T CR signaling is sustained by stabilized microclusters and is terminated in the cSMAC, a structure from which TCR are sorted for degradation, and a role for F-actin in TCR signaling beyond microcluster formation is revealed.

The leukocyte common antigen family.

TL;DR: The leukocyte-common antigen (L-CA) family is a group of high molecular weight glycoproteins uniquely expressed on the surface of all leukocytes and their hemopoietic progenitors and is a major cell surface component of lymphocytes and carries much of the carbohydrate of these cells.

Malondialdehyde-altered protein occurs in atheroma of Watanabe heritable hyperlipidemic rabbits

TL;DR: Immuno-cytochemical analyses reveal the presence of protein modified by malondialdehyde, a peroxidative end product, which colocalizes with the extracellular deposition of apolipoprotein B-100 protein of LDL in atheroma from Watanabe heritable hyperlipidemic rabbits, providing direct evidence for the existence in vivo ofprotein modified by a physiological product of lipid peroxidation within arterial lesions.

Protein Measurement with the Folin Phenol Reagent

TL;DR: Procedures are described for measuring protein in solution or after precipitation with acids or other agents, and for the determination of as little as 0.2 gamma of protein.
Journal ArticleDOI

Continuous cultures of fused cells secreting antibody of predefined specificity

TL;DR: The derivation of a number of tissue culture cell lines which secrete anti-sheep red blood cell (SRBC) antibodies is described here, made by fusion of a mouse myeloma and mouse spleen cells from an immunised donor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Derivation of specific antibody-producing tissue culture and tumor lines by cell fusion

TL;DR: Cell fusion techniques have been used to produce hybrids between myeloma cells and antibody‐producing cells that are permanently adapted to grow in tissue culture and are capable of inducing antibody-producing tumors in mice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antibodies to major histocompatibility antigens produced by hybrid cell lines.

TL;DR: FUSION between myeloma cells and spleen cells from immunised donors has been shown to be a successful method of deriving homogeneous anti-SRBC (anti-sheep red blood cell) and anti-TNP antibodies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of cell surfaces by xenogeneic myeloma-hybrid antibodies: differentiation antigens of rat lymphocytes.

TL;DR: A new approach to study differentiation antigens by means of monoclonal xenogeneic antibodies produced by myeloma-hybrid lines in culture is described, which allows identification down to minor membrane molecules and also of antigen on small subpopulations of a heterogeneous mixture of cells.
