متن کاملMitogenic Effect by Lipopolysaccharide and Pokeweed Lectin on Density-inhibited Chick Embryo Fibroblasts
The B lymphocyte mitogens, bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), pokeweed lectin, and tuberculin, induced proliferation in density-inhibited monolayer cultures of chick embryo fibroblasts. The stimulation was seen both as an early increase in sugar uptake and cell volume and later as an increase in thymidine incorporation and cell number. The concentration of LPS maximally stimulating fibroblasts...
متن کاملMitogenic properties of pokeweed lectin-D isoforms on human peripheral blood lymphocytes: non-mitogen PL-D1 and mitogen PL-D2.
We investigated native structures and mitogenic properties of pokeweed lectin-D isoforms (PL-D1 and -D2) on human peripheral blood lymphocytes along with other isolectins (PL-A to -C). Both native PL-D isoforms appeared to behave as monomers. PL-D2 proliferated the lymphocytes like PL-C, whereas PL-D1 had no mitogenicity. PL-D1 acquired mitogenic activity after trimming of the C-terminal dipept...
متن کاملPhytolacca americana lectin (Pa-2; pokeweed mitogen): an intrinsically unordered protein and its conversion into partial order at low pH.
This is the first report of its kind that well demonstrates that a lectin from Phytolacca americana [Pa-2 (P. americana lectin-2)] can also be intrinsically unordered, based on the results obtained by CD, tryptophan fluorescence, ANS (8-anilinonaphthalene-1-sulfonic acid) binding, acrylamide quenching, DLS (dynamic light scattering) and its amino acid composition database analyses. Pa-2 is an a...
متن کاملEffect of Pokeweed Mitogen (pwm) on Lymphocyte Lysosomfs
Resting blood lymphocytes in vitro undergo transformation into large, blastlike, dividing cells following incubation with phytohemagglutinin (PHA), a plant lectin from Phaseolus vulgaris (1). Farnes et al. (2) found another phytomitogen in saline extracts of the plant Phytolacca americana (pokeweed). Although both PHA and the pokeweed mitogen (PWM) induce nonspecific transformation of lymphocyt...
