The association between anti-triosephosphate isomerase (TPI) antibodies and MRL/MpJ-Fas(lpr) (MRL/lpr) mice was examined. We found that serum anti-TPI antibody levels in MRL/lpr mice, measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, were significantly higher than that of age-matched Balb/c mice and NZB/WF1 mice. Anti-TPI antibodies were detected in serum and cerebrospinal fluid in MRL/lpr mice by Western blotting. Inoculation of anti-TPI monoclonal antibody-producing hybridoma into the brain of Balb/c mice resulted in immunoglobulin deposition in the regions near the ventricles, hippocampus, and choroid plexus. Anti-TPI antibodies may play a role in the etiology of brain damage and behavioral deficits in MRL/lpr mice.
研究了抗磷酸三糖异构酶(TPI)抗体与 MRL/MpJ-Fas(lpr)(MRL/lpr)小鼠之间的关系。我们发现,通过酶联免疫吸附试验测量的 MRL/lpr 小鼠血清中抗 TPI 抗体水平明显高于同龄的 Balb/c 小鼠和 NZB/WF1 小鼠。通过 Western blot 在 MRL/lpr 小鼠的血清和脑脊液中检测到抗 TPI 抗体。将产生抗 TPI 单克隆抗体的杂交瘤注入 Balb/c 小鼠的大脑中,导致免疫球蛋白在脑室附近、海马体和脉络丛的区域沉积。抗 TPI 抗体可能在 MRL/lpr 小鼠的脑损伤和行为缺陷的发病机制中发挥作用。
