Human &-Glycoprotein I as an Anticardiolipin Cofactor Determined Using Deleted Mutants Expressed by a Baculovirus System
&-Glycoprotein I (&-GPI) consists of five repeats of a homologous domain. We designed a series of human &GPI mutant genes, ie, three mutant genes lacking the domain(s) present in the NH,-terminal region and two of those present in the COOH-terminal region. These mutant genes were expressed in Spodoptera frugiperda insect cells (Sf9) infected with recombinant baculoviruses and the mutant protein...
متن کاملA novel pathway for human endothelial cell activation by antiphospholipid/anti-β2 glycoprotein I antibodies.
Antiphospholipid Abs (APLAs) are associated with thrombosis and recurrent fetal loss. These Abs are primarily directed against phospholipid-binding proteins, particularly β(2)GPI, and activate endothelial cells (ECs) in a β(2)GPI-dependent manner after binding of β(2)GPI to EC annexin A2. Because annexin A2 is not a transmembrane protein, the mechanisms of APLA/anti-β(2)GPI Ab-mediated EC activ...
متن کاملAssociation of anticardiolipin, antiphosphatidylserine, anti-β2 glycoprotein I, and antiphosphatidylcholine autoantibodies with canine immune thrombocytopenia
BACKGROUND In humans, the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) is frequently found in immune thrombocytopenia. The present study investigated whether aPL and any aPL subtypes are associated with canine thrombocytopenia, in particular, immune-mediated thrombocytopenia (immune thrombocytopenia) that usually manifests with severe thrombocytopenia. RESULTS Sera were collected from 64 out...
متن کاملOptimization of Unnicked β2-Glycoprotein I and High Avidity Anti-β2-Glycoprotein I Antibodies Isolation
Patient biological material for isolation of β2-glycoprotein I (β2GPI) and high avidity IgG anti-β2-glycoprotein I antibodies (HAv anti-β2GPI) dictates its full utilization. The aim of our study was to evaluate/improve procedures for isolation of unnicked β2GPI and HAv aβ2GPI to gain unmodified proteins in higher yields/purity. Isolation of β2GPI from plasma was a stepwise procedure combining n...
متن کاملexpression of the recombinant plasminogen activator (reteplase) by a non-lytic insect cell expression system
reteplase is a potent thrombolytic agent which is widely used in the management of acute myocardial infarction and stroke. it belongs to the third generation of the thrombolytic drugs and has been derived from native human tissue plasminogen activator by removing three domains of it and keeping the kringle 2 and serine protease domains. however, the high cost of this drug, has limited the appli...
