Expression and Function of Class II I-Ak Antigens on an Antigen-Specific T-Suppressor Cell Clone
1986
The question of whether similar or different modes of Ia-antigen expression exist in different cell classes and mediate different cell type functions is of primary interest to current class II antigen research. Among cells of the lymphoid system in the mouse, class II antigens are primarily expressed on B lymphocytes (Sachs and Cone 1973) and cells of the macrophage lineage (Cowing et al. 1978), whereas the majority of T lymphocytes do not seem to express endogenously synthesized class II antigens.
Radiolabeled DNase, a potential indicator for noninvasive detection of tissue damage
1983
Pancreatic DNase I was labeled with 131I or fluorescamine and injected IV into NMRI mice bearing a sarcoma 180. Of the injected tracer, 1.5%-2% was found to accumulate per g tumor. In sections of tumor tissue DNase was localized in damaged cells in solid and necrotic tumor regions. This binding is most probably due to specific interaction of DNase with actin, an ubiquitous cytoskeletal protein. Two-component blood clearance with a rapid first component (two-thirds of applied radioactivity) was observed. The labeled tumor could easily be visualized by gamma camera imaging. The findings suggest DNase to be a potent radiopharmaceutical for imaging damaged tissue, occurring in malignant tumors …
