  • 인체 혈청에서 추출 정제된 ImmunoglobulinG(IgG)가 임상 병소 분리 녹농균(Ps. aeruginosa) 감염증에 대한 quinolone제제 ciprofloxacin(CPFX)과의 병용 및 단독 투여에 의한 항균효과를 생체감염과 시험관내 실험을 통하여 다음과 같이 요약하였다. 녹농균의 마우스 복강내 감염 후에 마우스 생존율에 의한 항균효과를 IgG 단독 투여군, IgG전 처치후 CPFX 투여군, IgG와 CPFX 동시 투여군 및 CPFX 단독 투여군 순이였다. 녹농균 감염 마우스에서 IgG 단독 투여군에서의 혈액 및 간장내의 생균수는 대조군에 비해 혈액내 균수의 증가는 완만하였으나, 간장내의 균수는 양군 모두 급격한 증가를 나타내었다. PMNL수의 추이는 CPFX 단독 투여군을 제외한 IgG투여군은 감염 후 8시간에 PMNL수가 증가 되었으며, 균 접종 전 IgG투여와 접종 후 IgG투여에 의한 유의적인 차이가 없었다. CPFX의 Ps. aeruginosa에 대한 시험관내 최소 발육 억제 농도는 IgG의 병용 투여에 상관없이 $250{\mu}g/ml$의 높은 내성을 나타내었다. 시험관내에서의 IgG의 직접적 항균작용은 인정되지 않았다.

  • The antigen location of Cryptosporidium parvum, which stimulates antibody formation in humans and animals, was investigated using infected human sera. Immuno-electron microscopy revealed that antigenicity-inducing humoral immunity was located at various developmental stages of parasites, including asexual, sexual stages, and oocysts. The amount of antigen-stimulating IgG antibodies was particularly high on the oocyst wall. The sporozoite surface was shown to give stimulation on IgG and IgM antibody formation. Trophozoites implicated the lowest antigenicity to humoral immunity, both IgG and IgM, by showing the least amount of gold labeling. Immunogold labeling also provided clues that antigens were presented to the host-cell cytoplasm via feeder organelles and host-parasite junctions.

  • The purpose of this study is to investigate the ability of I-131 labeled polyclonal human immunoglobulin to localize an infection. In our country, indium-111 labeled leukocyte or Tc-99m labeled IgG are not readily available because of compex, time-consuming procedure and cost. So we tried to localize infection with I-131 labeled IgG which could be easily prepared. Six rats, infected with staphylococcus aureus in a thigh muscle, received I-131 labeled IgG intravenously and I-131 labeled bovine serum albumin (BSA) were injected to other 5 infected rats. Scintigrams were made at 1, 4, 24, 48, 72 hour later. The radiopharmaceutical demonstrated significant accumulation at the site of infection. The accumulation of I-131 labeled IgG at the site of infection was significantly (P<0.05) higher than that of I-131 labeled BSA at 48, 72 hour. Similar finding could be found at 24 hour imaging, but it was not significant statistically. Therefore it was found that vascular permeability alone could not account for the mode of action of I-131 labeled IgG and it was considered that specific binding played a role. In conclusion, focal sites of inflammation can be detected with I-131 labeled nonspecific human polyclonal IgG and it seems that this method can also be applied to localization of human infection.

  • Chimeric fusion proteins involving IgG have proven valuable in studying protein-protein interactions and may possess therapeutic applications as well. For example, three receptor subtypes for the natriuretic peptides, when fused to the Fc portion of human IgG ${\gamma}$ chain, were quantitatively and qualitatively indistinguishable from the native receptor, thus allowing detailed structure-function studies of the receptor. In an attempt to block human immunodeficiency virus infectivity with soluble derivatives of CD4, a CD4/IgG Fc chimeric molecule was shown to increase the plasma half life of soluble CD4 and possessed the added advantage of IgG Fc-mediated placental transfer. In the case of the KGFR, this approach provided a framework for dissection of its ligand binding domains and made it possible to demonstrate that high affinity binding sites for two ligands, aFGF and KGF, reside within different receptor Ig-like domains. Chimeric molecules fused to immunoglobulins would have the advantages of secretion from transfected cells as well as detection and purification from medium utilizing Staphylococcus aureus Protein A. In addition, where highly related receptors make their discrimination very hard due to the difficulties in generating specific immunochemical probes, IgG fusion protein with tailor-made specificities confers particular advantages to elucidate patterns of receptor distribution and expression. The approach described here may have general applications in defining ligand-receptor interactions as well as searching for specific agonists and antagonists of receptor function.

  • Toxoplasmosis has been well known as an important human infection to consider especially in pregnant women. Although many serologic methods are available, the diagnosis of toxoplasmosis can be extremely difficult. The presence of increased levels of Toxoplasma-specific IgG antibodies indicates an infection, but it does not differentiate between a recent and past infection. The purpose of our study was to compare the performance of the ELISA T. gondii IgG/IgM test, a widely used enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, to the ELISA IgG avidity method. One hundred and four serum samples (from 38 males and 66 females) were tested and evaluated from symptomatic patients (chorioretinitis, lymphadenopathy), and from women in their first trimester of pregnancy who were suspected of having toxoplasmosis, The high IgG avidity and ELISA IgG antibody levels were in agreement for 51 of the specimens (49.0%). Thirty-eight discrepant (borderline) results from the IgG avidity method were positive for IgM (3 specimens) and IgG (37 specimens). Interestingly, out of the eight serum samples that were positive for both IgG and IgM antibodies, two samples were low IgG avidity, and three samples were borderline. There was no statistically significant relation observed between the results of the IgG avidity method and the ELISA IgG test, and the IgG avidity method and ELISA IgM test (X$^2$=1.987; p=0.370 and X$^2$=2.152; p=0.341, respectively). The IgG avidity method was considered easy to perform and an acceptable approach for the differentiation of discrepant results (recent/chronic) and for the current detection of T. gondii antibodies. We concluded that the determination of IgG avidity is a helpful tool for the diagnosis of the ocular form of toxoplasmosis and it is a safe method for screening this disease in the first trimester of pregnancy.

  • The present study analyzed serum IgG subclass antibody reaction to major antigenic bands of Clonorchis sinensis to investigate improvement of its serodiagnosis. Of the four subclass antibodies, IgG1 and IgG2 antibodies were produced but not specific, IgG3 antibody was least produced, and IgG4 antibody was prominent and specific. The serum IgG antibody reaction to any of 43-50, 34-37, 26-28, and 8 kDa bands was found in 65.5% of 168 egg positive cases while IgG4 antibody reaction was found in 22.0% of them. The positive rates of IgG and IgG4 antibodies were directly correlated with the intensity of infection. All of the sera from heavily infected cases over EPG 5,000 showed positive reaction for specific IgG and IgG4 antibodies. The specific serum IgG4 antibody disappeared within 6 months after treatment. The bands of 35 kDa and 67 kDa cross-reacted with IgG antibodies but not with IgG4 antibodies in sera of other trematode infections. The present findings suggest that serum IgG4 antibody reaction to 8 kDa band is specific but not sensitive. Any method to increase its sensitivity is required for improved serodiagnosis.

  • 이 연구에서는 살아있는 질편모충의 단백질녈해효소가 인체 면역글로불린을 분해하는지 알아보고 질편모충에 의한 조직세포 독성에 있어서 단백질분해효소의 역할을 시험관내에서 관찰하였다 실험에 사용한 질편모충은 질염환자로년터 분리한 KT9 분리주이었으며 세포독성을 알아보기 위한 표적세포로는 HeLa 세포를 사용하였다 질편모충 단백질분해효소가 인체 면역글로불린을 분해하는지 관찰하고자 인체의 분비 IP. 혈청 IgA 및 IgG를 살아있는 원충. 원충의 용출액 및 분비-배설 액과 DTT를 넣어 반응시켰다. 여러 계열의 단백질분해효소 저해제(aminopeptidase, serine, metallo, cystelrle계열)를 살아있는 질편모충과 미리 반응시킨 후 세척하고 면역글로불린의 분해 단백질분해효소 활성 및 조직세포독성에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다 살아있는 질편모충은 인체의 분비 IgA. 혈청 IgA 및 IgG를 분해하였는데 질편모충 수가 증가할수록 반응시간이 길수록 분해가 더 잘 이루어졌다 질푄모충의 용출액과 분비-배설액도 분비 IgA. 혈청 IgA 및 IgG를 분해하였다. Cysteine, serine계 열의 단백질분해효소 저해제 (I-64 antipain, iodoacetic acid, iodoacetamide, TLCK)를 처리한 질편닐충은 분비 IgA의 분해를 저해하였으며. 단백질분해효소저해제로 처리한 경우 질편모충의 단백질븐해효소 활성은 감소하였고 HeLa세포에 대한 독성이 감소하였다. 이상의 성적을 종합하면 질편모충에서 분비되는 단백질분해효소는 시험관내에서 조직세포에 세포독성을 나타내며 또한 인체면역글로불린을 분해하여 숙주의 방어기전에 대한 도피물질로 작용하는 것으로 생각된다.

  • 목적: 주기율표상에서 7족에 위치하며, 유사한 화학적 특성을 지닌 $^{99m}Tc$$^{188}Re$의 항체에 표지하는 조건의 차이점과 앞서 표지된 항체의 핵종에 따른 거동의 차이를 비교 실험해 보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: mercaptoethanol을 사용하여 non-specific human IgG의 disulfide 결합을 환원시켜, -SH 기의 발생을 유도하였다. 앞서 처리된 IgG을 stannous ion 을 사용하여 $^{99m}Tc$$^{188}Re$을 환원하여 $^{99m}Tc$-IgG과 $^{188}Re$-IgG을 제작하였다. HPLC를 사용하여 $^{99m}Tc$-IgG은 1시간, 4시간. 6시간, 24시간마다 $^{188}Re$-IgG은 1시간, 4시간, 16시간, 24시간마다 시간경과에 따른 안정도 변화를 확인하였다. 결과: 한 분자당 약 2개의 -SH기를 유도 면역 활성이 최대한 유지되는 환원된 IgG를 얻을 수 있었다. 각각 90%와 95% 이상의 높은 표지반응수율로 $^{99m}Tc$-IgG과 $^{188}Re$-IgG을 얻었다. $^{99m}Tc$-IgG의 %peak area를 1시간, 4시간, 6시간, 24시간마다 측정한 값은 각각 91%, 83%, 78%, 7%이었다. $^{188}Re$-IgG의 경우 1시간, 4시간, 16시간, 24시간에서 94%, 80%, 47%, 42%이었다. $^{99m}Tc$-IgG을 정맥주사 후 4시간 후의 %ID/g는 장기별로 신장, 혈액, 위, 농양($9.42{\pm}0.68,\;1.43{\pm}0.24,\;0.86{\pm}0.18,\;0.72{\pm}0.10$)순이었고, 24시간에서는 신장, 농양, 위, 혈액($7.61{\pm}1.58,\;0.57{\pm}0.07,\;0.37{\pm}0.09,\;0.281{\pm}0.09$)의 순이었다. $^{188}Re$-IgG의 경우 4시간에서 신장, 혈액, 농양, 위($3.92{\pm}0.62,\;1.32{\pm}0.08,\;0.88{\pm}0.01,\;0.26{\pm}0.06$)의 순이였고, 24시간에서 신장, 농양, 혈액, 위($4{\pm}0.26,\;0.37{\pm}0.04,\;0.29{\pm}0.01,\;0.13{\pm}0.03$)의 순이었다. 결론: $^{99m}Tc$-IgG과 $^{188}Re$-IgG의 표지항체는 직접표지 법을 사용하여 효과적으로 제조되었다. 그러나, 직접표지법을 사용한 $^{99m}Tc$-IgG과 $^{188}Re$-IgG의 안정도는 시간경과에 따라 불안정함을 보여 안정성을 증가시키기 위한 항체표지 방법들에 대한 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각되었다.

  • Recently, we demonstrated that human serum amyloid P component (SAP) specifically recognizes exposed bacterial peptidoglycan (PGN) of wall teichoic acid (WTA)-deficient Staphylococcus aureus ${\Delta}$tagO mutant cells and then induces complement-independent phagocytosis. In our preliminary experiments, we found the existence of human serum immunoglobulins that recognize S. aureus PGN (anti-PGNIgGs), which may be involved in complement-dependent opsonophagocytosis against infected S. aureus cells. We assumed that purified serum anti-PGN-IgGs and S. aureus ${\Delta}$tagO mutant cells are good tools to study the molecular mechanism of anti-PGN-IgG-mediated phagocytosis. Therefore, we tried to identify the intracellular molecule(s) that is involved in the anti-PGN-IgG-mediated phagocytosis using purified human serum anti-PGN-IgGs and different S. aureus mutant cells. Here, we show that anti-PGN-IgG-mediated phagocytosis in phorbol myristate acetate-treated U937 cells is mediated by $Ca^{2+}$ release from intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ stores and anti-PGN-IgGdependent $Ca^{2+}$ mobilization is controlled via a phospholipase C${\gamma}$-2-mediated pathway.

  • 농양진단을 위한 방사성표지화합물의 제조에 관한 기초실험을 수행하였다. IgG를 2-mercaptoethanol로 환원하여 분자당 1.5개의 -SH가 유도된 IgG를 얻을 수 있었다. 이것을 $^{188}$Re과 표지 반응시켜 99%의 높은 표지반응수율로 IgG-$^{188}$Re을 얻었으며, 여기에 인 혈청을 안정제로 가해줌으로써 1시간까지 약 90%의 방사화학적 순도를 유지할 수 있었다. 포도상구균으로 유발한 농양이식 백서에서 IgG-$^{188}$Re의 생체분포실험을 통해 농양의 진단이 가능한 것으로 확인하였다. 이상의 결과를 적용하면 여러 가지 단클론 항체의 $^{188}$Re 표지화합물 제조에 적용할 수 있을 것으로 기대되었다.
