PMID- 7894201 OWN - NLM STAT- MEDLINE DCOM- 19950426 LR - 20071115 IS - 1018-8916 (Print) IS - 1018-8916 (Linking) VI - 13 IP - 6 DP - 1994 Nov-Dec TI - Increase in tumor necrosis factor-alpha mRNA but not perforin mRNA expression in response to two newly characterized anti-LFA-1 monoclonal antibodies. PG - 301-14 AB - We have generated two monoclonal antibodies (mAb), designated anti-1B11 and anti-4F9, directed to the human lymphocyte-function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1). Indirect immunofluorescence with both mAb showed a bimodal distribution of antigen on the surface of T, natural killer (NK), and lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells. Neither mAb reacted with the epitopes recognized by TA1 and Mo-1 mAb on the alpha-chain of the heterodimer. Anti-1B11 and anti-4F9 immunoprecipitated polypeptide chains with molecular weights of 177 and 95 kD. Both mAb inhibited cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL), NK, and LAK cell-mediated cytotoxicity without affecting antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). The proliferative responses of T cells to allogeneic cells were inhibited by anti-1B11 and anti-4F9, whereas the responses to phytohemagglutinin P and concanavalin A were not affected. Anti-1B11 and anti-4F9 blocked effector cell (EC)-target cell (TC) conjugate formation by 50%. Only anti-4F9 cross-reacted with LFA-1 on porcine peripheral blood lymphocytes and inhibited porcine NK, LAK, and ADCC activities. Because LFA-1 also functions at the level of signal transduction during T cell activation and we previously showed that CTL rapidly degraded perforin and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF alpha) mRNA after interaction with sensitive TC, we examined the effects of the mAb on the messages for perforin and TNF alpha. Treatment of CTL with anti-1B11 and anti-4F9 induced TNF alpha message and protein levels of TNF alpha, but did not alter perforin mRNA levels.
