Topik: Endothelial Cell; Anti-Endothelial Cells Antibody Fulltext: 103.full.pdf (1.01MB) Isi artikel Though vasculitic diseases have been claimed to be associated with anti-endothelial cells antibodies (AECA), there is a widespread awareness of the limitations of the tests currently in use. Our objective was therefore to establish clones, in the hope that some of them would express disease-specific membrane autoantigens. Two EC lines and 7 clones were established by fusing human umbilical vein EC with epithelial A549/8 cells, and cloning by limiting dilution. An additional clone was derived from the EA.hy 926 cell line. All clones carried EC markers, such as thrombomoduline (TM) and platelet-EC adhesion molecule 1 but differed from each other, depending on whether they expressed HLA class II antigen, LFA-1, thrombospondin receptor or von Willebrand factor (vWf) antigen. Clones were also characterized by their ability to release tissue plasminogen activator, interleukin 6, TM and vWf. This panel is meant to distinguish reactivities of AECA.
