Abstract

H+,K(+)-adenosine triphosphatase (H+,K(+)-ATPase) of parietal cells is an organ-specific enzyme recognized by autoantibodies found in human and murine autoimmune gastritis (AIG). Murine AIG can be induced in BALB/c mice by thymectomy 3 days after birth and is a T cell-mediated disease. This study examined the specificity of T cells that cause AIG and the role of H+,K(+)-ATPase in this disease. From an AIG mouse, a gastritogenic T-cell clone (II-6) was established, and its reactivity to synthetic peptides of H+,K(+)-ATPase was tested. II-6 cells are CD4+, V beta 14+, and interferon gamma producers. Adoptive transfer of II-6 cells to syngeneic nude mice resulted in AIG without the production of autoantibodies to parietal cells. The II-6 cells were responsive not only to murine but also to human and porcine parietal cells. Their proliferation was also induced by amino acids 891-905 (alpha 891) and 892-906 (alpha 892) of the alpha subunit of porcine and human H+,K(+)-ATPase, respectively. The T-cell response to a single epitope of H+,K(+)-ATPase, the amino acid sequence of which is conserved among at least three mammals tested, is sufficient to cause AIG. Autoantibodies to parietal cells are not detected in these AIG mice.

Atrophic Gastritis is a process where gastric glandular cells are lost and replaced with firbous tissues, as a result of chronic inflammation. Learn more about Atrophic Gastritis here.

Autoimmune Diseases

Autoimmune diseases occur as a result of an attack by the immune system on the body’s own tissues resulting in damage and dysfunction. There are different types of autoimmune diseases, in which there is a complex and unknown interaction between genetics and the environment. Discover the latest research on autoimmune diseases here.
