Abstract

We used monoclonal antibodies and flow cytometry to study the expression of the receptors for the complement fragments C3bi (CR3) and C3b (CR1) on human polymorphonuclear neutrophil leukocytes (PMN). Expression of both receptors was minimal on cells stained in anticoagulated whole blood incubated at 0 degree or 37 degrees C. PMN isolated with Percoll density gradients and held at 0 degree C also had only minimal expression of both receptors. With the isolated cells, however, a spontaneous increase in expression of both receptors occurred upon warming to 37 degrees C. This did not represent complete expression of either receptor since additional increments in surface expression could be induced upon stimulation with N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine or Raji cell supernatant. The increases in complement receptor (CR) expression appeared to be specific since there were no changes in expression of the Fc gamma receptor or beta-2-microglobulin under any of these conditions. The increased CR expression seems to involve translocation from an intracellular pool since it is complete within minutes and is not blocked by puromycin or cycloheximide. These results demonstrate that both CR3 and CR1 expression increase rapidly upon activation of PMN and that isolated cells can be used to study this phenomenon, which may be a critical part of neutrophil function in vivo.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
