ZrO₂@C-based colorimetric/photothermal dual-mode immunosensor coupled with a novel monoclonal antibody for quantification of Aspergillus ochraceus biomass.

Aspergillus ochraceus contaminates agricultural products and produces nephrotoxic, carcinogenic ochratoxin A (OTA), posing severe food safety hazards. A dual-signal lateral flow immunochromatographic assay (dLFIA) based on ZrO₂@C nanoprobes was established for quantitative detection of A. ochraceus biomass. A novel monoclonal antibody (mAb 4B4) was prepared as the capture antibody to immobilize A. ochraceus mycelial lysate antigen on the test line, and a rabbit polyclonal antibody (pAb G2801) as the detection antibody to modify ZrO₂@C composites (synthesized via UiO-66 pyrolysis) into 200 nm colorimetric/photothermal nanoprobes. This dLFIA achieved limits of detection of 0.164 μg/mL (colorimetric) and 0.517 μg/mL (photothermal). This efficient and reliable method allows quantitative analysis of A. ochraceus biomass, which is suitable for routine monitoring of fungal contamination in agro-food matrices.

Regulation of the serine-base exchange enzyme system by CD4: effects of monoclonal antibodies, jacalin, interleukin 16 and the HIV membrane protein gp120.

Phosphatidylserine (PtdSer) is synthesized by an exchange of the polar head group of phospholipids for a serine residue. The enzyme responsible for this reaction, the serine-base exchange enzyme system (serine-BEES) is inhibited during lymphocyte activation. We show here that triggering the CD4 cell surface molecule in several CD4+ T-cell lines regulates the serine-BEES activity, thus resulting in marked changes in PtdSer synthesis. CD4 ligands able to generate an activating signal in T-cells such as the lectin jacalin, down-regulate the synthesis of PtdSer. In contrast, monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) directed against the CD4 molecule, such as IOT4 and IOT4a, which have previously been described as generating an inhibitory signal to T-cells, induced an up-regulation of the serine-BEES and impaired CD3-induced inhibition of PtdSer synthesis. Similarly, the HIV-gp120 envelope glycoprotein, in both soluble and cross-linked forms, induces an increase in PtdSer synthesis. The protein tyrosine kinase p56lck participates in the regulation of serine-BEES activity because the effect of CD4 mAbs was additive to that of amino-hydroxyflavone, an inhibitor of p56lck. Also, CD4 mAbs were inactive in J Cam 1.6 cells or when the CD3 signals were bypassed by using thapsigargin. These results demonstrate that the CD4 surface molecule can transmit both activating and inhibiting intracellular signals depending on the CD4 ligand used. We suggest that PtdSer synthesis would be one of the intracellular signals that could explain the opposite effects of different CD4 ligands on T-cells.

In vitro behavior of hematopoietic progenitor cells under the influence of chemoattractants: stromal cell-derived factor-1, steel factor, and the bone marrow environment.

How multiple chemoattractants cooperate in directing the migration of hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC) for homing and peripheral blood mobilization has not yet been established. We report here the behavior of HPC under the influence of two different chemoattractants, stromal cell-derived factor (SDF)-1 and steel factor (SLF), and the chemotactic nature of the bone marrow (BM) environment using a two-chamber in vitro migration system. Various formulae were adopted to quantitate these effects. Based on these quantitations, SDF-1 showed only chemotactic activity, while SLF showed both chemotactic and chemokinetic activities on factor-dependent MO7e cells. SLF, like SDF-1, attracted human HPC from a population of CD34+ cells and induced actin polymerization in MO7e cells. SLF and SDF-1 cooperated in attracting MO7e cells, as well as cord blood (CB) and BM CD34+ cells. A negative concentration gradient of SLF and SDF-1, formed by the presence of chemoattractants in the upper chamber, showed potent inhibitory effects on MO7e cell migration induced by either of these chemoattractants in the lower chamber, and SDF-1 and SLF were synergistic in mobilizing cells to the lower chamber from this negative chemoattractant gradient. Plasma obtained from BM aspirates, but not CB or peripheral blood, showed strong chemotactic effects on BM and CB CD34+ cells, and an inhibitory effect in a negative gradient on SDF-1-dependent CD34+ cell migration. These in vitro migration experiments suggest that chemoattractants such as SDF-1 and SLF with other unidentified BM chemoattractants may be involved cooperatively in the migration of HPC to the BM and in preventing spontaneous mobilization of HPC out of the BM.
