The amount of H antigens on buccal epithelial cells (BEC) of secretors and non-secretors was measured by flow cytometry. H type 1 and H type 2 on BEC were detected with fluorescein-labelled Ulex europaeus lectin, and H type 2 was measured with mouse monoclonal antibody. Between 3.5 and 6 times more H antigen was detected on cells from secretors compared with cells from non-secretors. The level of H type 2 was the same on BEC of secretors and non-secretors. Adsorption of H type 1 antigen from secretor saliva onto non-secretors BEC was demonstrated. A simple and sensitive ELISA method was developed for the determination of H in saliva with biotin-labelled Ulex lectin. This system provides a simple means for measuring the amount of H present in saliva and for the determination of secretor status.
通过流式细胞术测量分泌型和非分泌型个体颊黏膜上皮细胞(BEC)上H抗原的量。用荧光素标记的荆豆凝集素检测BEC上的1型H和2型H,并用小鼠单克隆抗体测量2型H。与非分泌型个体的细胞相比,在分泌型个体的细胞上检测到的H抗原多3.5至6倍。分泌型和非分泌型个体的BEC上2型H的水平相同。证实了分泌型唾液中的1型H抗原可吸附到非分泌型个体的BEC上。开发了一种简单而灵敏的酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA)方法,用生物素标记的荆豆凝集素来测定唾液中的H。该系统为测量唾液中H的含量和确定分泌型状态提供了一种简单的方法。
