Abstract

We have previously shown that parietal cell autoantibodies predominantly react with a 60-90 kDa gastric autoantigen, subsequently identified as the beta subunit of the gastric H+/K(+)-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) (proton pump) whereas Karlsson et al showed that these autoantibodies primarily target the 95 kDa alpha subunit of the pump. In view of these discordant results, we have reassessed the reactivity of parietal cell autoantibodies with the two subunits of the gastric H+/K(+)-ATPase. We show here that all 26 parietal cell autoantibody-positive sera immunoblot both subunits under appropriate, but mutually exclusive, conditions. Thus, reactivity of anti-parietal cell autoantibodies with the 95 kDa alpha subunit is optimal when the SDS-PAGE is carried out with samples which are reduced but not boiled. Whereas reactivity with the 60-90 kDa beta subunit is optimal with samples which are boiled but not reduced. Autoantibody reactivity with the beta subunit is critically dependent on the presence of a full complement of N-linked glycans since partially deglycosylated protein, and recombinant beta subunit expressed in COS cells, bearing high mannose N-glycans, failed to bind to the autoantibody. These studies also suggest that B cell auto-...Continue Reading

Atrophic Gastritis

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.

Antibody Specificity

Antibodies produced by B cells are highly specific for antigen as a result of random gene recombination and somatic hypermutation and affinity maturation. As the main effector of the humoral immune system, antibodies can neutralize foreign cells. Find the latest research on antibody specificity here.
