Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) SDS-PAGE analysis of rLILRA5-His, used for immunisation of Balc/c mice. (B) Binding of anti-LILRA5 P4-11A mAb to magnetic beads coated with recombinant LILR or control proteins. mAb binding was detected using anti-IgG mAb and flow cytometric analysis. Mean ± SD of n = 3 independent experiments is shown. Paired t -test between anti-LILRA5 P4-11A and isotype control, where * p < 0.05. (C) U937 cells transfected with DNA vectors expressing LILRA5 protein, or control cells, were analysed for binding of anti-LILRA5 clone P4-11A mAb. mAb binding was detected using anti-IgG mAb and flow cytometric analysis. n = 3 from 3 independent experiments, one representative experiment is shown. (D) A schematic of the LILRA5CD3ζ reporter 2B4 T cell line, expressing a surface protein composed of extracellular and transmembrane LILRA5 domains fused to the cytoplasmic tail of CD3ζ. The cross-linking of CD3 or the fusion LILRA5CD3ζ protein induces phosphorylation of the ITAM (immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif) domains in CD3ζ by Src kinases, and a signalling cascade that activates the NFAT (nuclear factor of activated T-cells) transcription factor. NFAT subsequently induces the expression of green fluorescent protein (GFP). (E) Cross-linking capacity of plate-bound anti-LILRA5 P4-11A mAb assessed using a LILRA5CD3ζ reporter cell line. GFP expression by LILRA5CD3ζ+ 2B4T cells or control 2B4T cells was assessed by flow cytometric analysis after incubation in wells containing plate-bound anti-LILRA5 P4-11A or isotype mAb. The % of GFP+ cells were quantified. Mean ± SD of n = 4 independent experiments are shown. One-way ANOVA, where **** p < 0.0001. (F) Development of an ELISA for detecting sLILRA5. anti-LILRA5 P4-11A mAb or isotype control were used to capture rLILRA5-His. A titration curve ( n = 3 ) of rLILRA5-His detected by anti-LILRA5 P4-11A mAb is shown.
Article Snippet: To quantify ROS production, wells of a white 96-well plate was coated overnight at 4°C with 50 µl of 5 µg/ml anti-LILRA5 clone P4-11A mAb, anti-CD89 (MCA1824; Bio Rad) or IgG1 Isotype control (0102-01; Southern Biotech) mAbs diluted in NaHCO₃ buffer, pH8.6.
