Functional immunoglobulin transgenes guide ordered B-cell differentiation in Rag-1-deficient mice [PDF]

, 1994
We have examined the regulatory role of the individual components of the immunoglobulin antigen receptor in B-cell development by transgenic complementation of Rag-1 deficient (Rag-1⁻) mice. Complementation with a membrane µ heavy chain (µHC) gene allows

Heterohybridomas producing human immunoglobulin light chains using CD138-selected bone marrow cells

Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports
Background: Light chain research is hampered by lack of mammalian cell lines producing human light chains (FLC). Therefore, we used heterohybridoma (HH) technology to produce clones making FLC thereby providing tools to study light chain behavior ...

Simultaneous tubular and glomerular involvement with cryoglobulinemia vasculitis in multiple myeloma

Saudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation, 2019
Renal manifestations in myeloma are varied. Tubulopathic light chains cause cast nephropathy or proximal tubulopathy, usually associated with tubulointerstitial nephritis.

Cryo-EM structure of cardiac amyloid fibrils from an immunoglobulin light chain AL amyloidosis patient

Nature Communications, 2018
Systemic light chain amyloidosis (AL) is a life-threatening disease caused by aggregation and deposition of monoclonal immunoglobulin light chains (LC) in target organs.

Renal tubular P-glycoprotein expression is reduced in plasma cell disorders

Kidney Research and Clinical Practice, 2019
Background : P-glycoprotein (P-gp) transports many chemicals that vary greatly in their structure and function. It is normally expressed in renal proximal tubular cells. We hypothesized that P-gp expression influences light chain excretion.

VH-RELATED IDIOTOPES DETECTED BY SITE-DIRECTED MUTAGENESIS [PDF]

, 1992
The function of the CD4 cell surface protein as coreceptor on T helper lymphocytes and as receptor for HIV makes this glycoprotein a prime target for an immune intervention with mAb.

Immunoglobulin genes and diversity: what we have learned from domestic animals

Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2012
This review focuses on the diversity of immunoglobulin (Ig) genes and Ig isotypes that are expressed in domestic animals. Four livestock species—cattle, sheep, pigs, and horses—express a full range of Ig heavy chains (IgHs), including μ, δ, γ, ϵ, and α ...

Expression of combinatorial immunoglobulins in macrophages in the tumor microenvironment. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Recent evidence indicates the presence of macrophage subpopulations that express the TCRαβ in chronic inflammatory diseases such as tuberculosis and atherosclerosis and in the tumor microenvironment.

Genetic polymorphism of mouse immunoglobulin light chains revealed by isoelectric focusing

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1976
Light chains isolated from normal immunoglobulin of unimmunized mice were analyzed by gel isoelectric focusing. Examination of the focusing patterns of light chains from nine inbred mouse strains showed that six of the strains (SWR/J, C3H/HeJ, DBA/1J, A ...

Clathrin structure characterized with monoclonal antibodies. I. Analysis of multiple antigenic sites. [PDF]

, 1985
Three monoclonal antibodies that react with previously undefined antigenic determinants on the clathrin molecule have been produced and characterized. They were isolated from a fusion between myeloma cells and popliteal lymphocytes from SJL mice that had
