A Study of Antigens of Human Leukocytes

A Study of Antigens of Human Leukocytes

Abstract

SummaryThe antigenic structure of human leukocytes has been studied by means of humans leukocyte agglutinins. It has been confirmed that leukocytes contain antigens which are not present in erythrocytes and that at least four antigens are distributed among normal leukocytes. Since a very limited immunization may give rise to leukocyte agglutinins reacting with a high percentage of leukocytes, some leukocyte antigens probably are of frequent occurrence.By absorption experiments it has been demonstrated that some leukocyte agglutinating sera contain mixtures of agglutinins of different specificity and that normal leukocytes, leukaemic lymphocytes and leukaemic granulocytes have antigens in common. Finally it is pointed out that leukocyte groups cannot be explained by a simple antigenic system determined by a single pair of allelomorphic genes.RésuméLa structure antigénique des leucocytes humains a été étudiée à l'aide d'agglutinines anti‐leucocytaires humaines. II a pu être dé‐montré que les leucocytes contiennent des antigènes qui ne se trouvent pas chez les hématies, et qu'il existe au moins quatre antigènes propres aux leucocytes normaux. Puisqu'il suffit d'une immunisation restreinte pour produire des leuco‐agglutinines qui réagissent avec un haut pourcentage de leucocytes, il semble que certains antigènes leucocytaires soient de haute fréquence.A l'aide d'absorption on a pu montrer que certains sérums contiennent un mélange de leuco‐agglutinines de spécificité différente et que les leucocytes normaux, les lymphocytes leucémiques et les granulocytes leucémiques ont des antigènes en commun.Ces études indiquent enfin que les groupes leucocytaires ne peuvent pas être expliqués par l'hypothèse d'un système antigénique simple régi par une seule paire de gènes allélomorphes.ZusammenfassungDie Antigenstruktur von menschlichen Leukozyten wurde mit menschlichen leukozyten‐agglutininhaltigen Seren untersucht. Es gelang zu zeigen, daß die Leukozyten Antigene enthalten, die in den Erythrozyten der betreffenden Individuen fehlen. Normale mensch‐liche Leukozyten enthalten zumindest 4 Antigene. Da schon ein schwacher Antigenstimulus genügt, um die Bildung von Leukozyten‐agglutininen auszulösen, ist anzunehmen, daß gewisse Leukozyten‐antigene eine weite Verbreitung aufweisen.Auf Grund von Absorptionsversuchen gelang es zu zeigen, daß einzelne Leukozytenagglutinine ein Antikörpergemisch mit verschiedener Spezifität darstellen. Außerdem weisen normale Leukozyten, leukämische Lympho‐ und Granulozyten gemeinsame Antigene auf. Der Erbgang der Leukozytenantigene ist komplex und kann nicht durch ein einzelnes Allelpaar erklärt werden.
