Cholera toxin linked covalently by glutaraldehyde to horseradish peroxidase was incubated with cultured chicken sympathetic neurons at 4 degrees. Cells were washed and brought to 37 degrees to permit endocytosis of bound toxin on plasma membranes. Massive internalization of the ligand into vesicles and cisterns of the Golgi--endoplasmic reticulum--lysosome (GERL) system was demonstrated by the ...
Cholera toxin (CT) enters and intoxicates host cells after binding cell surface receptors using its B subunit (CTB). The ganglioside (glycolipid) GM1 is thought to be the sole CT receptor; however, the mechanism by which CTB binding to GM1 mediates internalization of CT remains enigmatic. Here we report that CTB binds cell surface glycoproteins. Relative contributions of gangliosides and glycop...
We examined the reactivity of a panel of anti-GM1 immunoglobulin M monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) cloned from multifocal motor neuropathy patients with lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) of Campylobacter jejuni strains, including serotype O:41 strains associated with Guillain-Barré syndrome. The MAbs reacted with ganglioside GM1 to different degrees, and these differences in fine specificities for GM1 we...
Antibodies to GM1 ganglioside were used to study murine lymphocyte populations. In A, AKR, and BALB/c mice, anti-GM1 reacts with thymocytes and peripheral T cells. This reactivity of anti-GM1, studied by immunofluorescence, is independent of Thy-1 type and appears to be related to the reactivity of cross-reacting antibodies to asialo GM1 and GD1b, rather than GM1 itself. In addition, a subpopul...
Soluble Aβ oligomers contribute importantly to synaptotoxicity in Alzheimer's disease, but their dynamics in vivo remain unclear. Here, we found that soluble Aβ oligomers were sequestered from brain interstitial fluid onto brain membranes much more rapidly than nontoxic monomers and were recovered in part as bound to GM1 ganglioside on membranes. Aβ oligomers bound strongly to GM1 ganglioside, ...
Cholera toxin B subunit (CTB) has been extensively studied as an immunogen, adjuvant, and inducer of oral tolerance in many investigations. Production of CTB has been carried out in the bacterial, plant, insect and yeast expression systems. In this study the expression of the CTB containing a 6XHis-tagged was performed by Escherichia coli (E.coli) M15. The yield of purified pentameric recombina...
Age-related alterations of membrane lipids in brain cell membranes together with high blood cholesterol are considered as major risk factors for Alzheimer's disease. Yet the molecular mechanisms by which these factors increase Alzheimer's risk are mostly unknown. In lipid raft domains of the plasma membrane, neurotoxic Alzheimer's beta-amyloid (Abeta) peptides interact with both cholesterol and...
OBJECTIVE Molecular mimicry between Campylobacter jejuni lipo-oligosaccharides (LOSs) and human gangliosides GM1 and GD1a induces the production of anti-GM1 and anti-GD1a antibodies, and the development of Guillain-Barré syndrome. Complexes of two different gangliosides form new molecular shapes capable of enhancing recognition by anti-ganglioside antibodies. To test the hypothesis that the com...
In order to evaluate the usefulness of liposomes as oral vaccines, the stability of liposomes and serum IgA antibody response to antigen associated with liposomes after oral administration were examined. Liposomes composed of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC), dipalmitoylphosphatidylserine (DPPS), and cholesterol (Chol) (1:1:2, molar ratio), distearoylphosphatidylcholine (DSPC) and Chol (7:...
Clusters of GM1 gangliosides act as platforms for conformational transition of monomeric, unstructured amyloid β (Aβ) to its toxic β-structured aggregates. We have previously shown that Aβ(1-40) accommodated on the hydrophobic/hydrophilic interface of lyso-GM1 or GM1 micelles assumes α-helical structures under ganglioside-excess conditions. For better understanding of the mechanisms underlying ...
