Abstract
The effect of chronic choline supplementation on the in vivo Rb+ uptake and release of rat brain cortical cells was investigated. Adult (11 months old) and old (22 months old) controls as well as old (22 months old) female rats treated with choline (approximately 100 mg/day in the drinking water) by the age of 11 months, were used. All the animals received a daily dose of 30 mg RbCl/100 g body weight for 14 days, given intraperitoneally, half in the morning, half in the evening. After discontinuation of the RbCl treatment, the animals were killed at intervals of 2, 4, 9 and 16 days, respectively. The intracellular Rb+ and K+ contents were analyzed by energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis, whereas concentrations of these two elements were determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometry in the cerebrospinal fluid. Old animals accumulate more Rb+ than the adult ones at any time taken into account. Choline treatment was able to reduce the amount of accumulated Rb+ in the old rats. Rb+-discrimination ratios calculated on the basis of Rb+ and K+ contents of both cortical cells and cerebrospinal fluid, is higher in old rats as compared to both adult and old choline treated rats. Present findings support that chronic choline treatment is effective improving the passive membrane permeability of nerve cells for Rb+ (and K+) in the old animals.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma was induced in rats by administering aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) for 6 weeks. Malignant tumours were preceded by foci and nodules of altered hepatocytes of three histological types, composed of basophilic, eosinophilic, and vacuolated cells. In addition, there were areas of altered hepatocytes that were considered as hyperplastic. Lectins were used as histochemical markers to compare the expression of membrane glycoproteins in hepatocellular carcinomas and hepatic nodules with non-nodular or control hepatocytes. There were marked changes in the lectin-binding patterns of the hepatocellular carcinoma cells and the eosinophilic nodules. The lectin-binding patterns of basophilic nodules, vacuolated nodules, and hyperplastic areas were similar to non-nodular or untreated hepatocytes. The similarity in the lectin-binding changes of the eosinophilic nodules and hepatocellular carcinomas suggests that the eosinophilic nodules may be an early stage in the development of carcinoma.

Abstract
Germ cell toxicity was assessed by investigating the binding of FITC-labeled lectins to mouse testis cells before and 18 days after treatment with ethylnitrosourea (ENU). Flow cytometry of testis cells dual-labeled with FITC-lectin plus the DNA stain, propidium iodide, allowed analysis of haploid (1C), diploid (2C), and dividing (4C) cell populations. Soybean agglutinin, wheat germ agglutinin, concanavalin A and Limax flavus agglutinin bound to normal mouse testis cells containing 1C, 2C or 4C DNA. Asparagus pea lectin and Bandeireae simplicifolia I isolectin B4 did not. ENU treatment reduced the number of testis cells and increased lectin binding, particularly of those lectins which bound to untreated cells.

Abstract
We have generated, and characterized the immunological specificity of, a monoclonal antibody (MAb) termed 2B3G8 that recognizes cell-surface determinant(s) of D. melanogaster neoplastic hematopoietic tissue. This antibody was generated against antigens of a tumor line derived from neoplastic lymph glands, the hematopoietic organs, of a growth control mutant, Tumorous-lethal (Tum1). 2B3G8 does not recognize any of a panel of normal Drosophila cells or transformed cell lines from mouse or human sources as assayed by indirect immunofluorescence. Enzymatic digests did not remove this antigen from neoplastic blood cells or uncover the antigen in normal blood cells. Thus, we have generated a MAb that serves as a marker for the neoplastic hematopoietic condition in Drosophila which is a model for vertebrate neoplasia. This antibody is potentially useful for the study of oncodevelopmental antigens in developing hematopoietic systems and for detecting the onset of the neoplastic condition.

Abstract
The membranes of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons dissected from different age groups of C57BL mice, from 18-day fetal to 30-month-old mice, were labeled with the fluorescent analog of fatty acids, F18, after a day in culture. The fluorescent probe specifically labeled the cell surface. The lateral diffusion of F18 (5-(octadecylthiocarbamoylamino) fluorescein) was measured with fluorescence photobleaching recovery (FPR) method. During development, the lateral diffusion coefficients of F18 rapidly decreased from (0.34 +/- 0.07) X 10(-8) cm2/s (18-day-old fetus) to (0.22 +/- 0.07) X 10(-8) cm2/s (3-day-old newborn). Then the values slowly decreased and reached (0.13 +/- 0.05) X 10(-8) cm2/s in a 6-month-old stage. In stages older than 6-months the lateral diffusion coefficients scarcely changed with aging. As this decrease in the membrane fluidity with increasing age is parallelled to that in capacities of extending neurites, it is thought that the membrane fluidity might change with aging in concert with changes in important cell functions.

Abstract
Pharmacological doses of estrogens such as 17-beta estradiol (17-beta E) and diethylstilbestrol (DES) suppress cell-mediated immunity in vivo. In this report, we investigated the direct in vitro effects of 17-beta E and its major metabolites on lymphocyte proliferation in response to the T cell lectin phytohemagglutinin (PHA). PHA-induced lymphocyte agglutination, an early event indicative of active, cytoskeletal-dependent membrane alterations, was monitored in conjunction with blastogenesis. Without exception, the effects of individual estrogen metabolites on the PHA-induced agglutination occurring within minutes were accompanied, at every concentration of compound, by equivalent effects on the blastogenic response of activated cells measured after several days. This observation suggested a role for estrogens in modulating lymphocyte activation at the cell surface rather than through cytosolic receptor-mediated events. As suggested by previous studies with quinone metabolites of benzene, the catechol estrogen metabolite 2-OH estrone (2-OH E) was significantly more potent than the parent compound at suppressing lymphocyte proliferation in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
Fluorescence energy transfer using flow cytometric measurements was utilized to determine the proximity of concanavalin A receptors on the surface of HL-60 promyelocytic leukemia cells before and after induction of differentiation. The HL-60 cells were induced to differentiate into granulocytes using dimethylsulfoxide and into macrophages using 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate. Concanavalin A was labeled with either fluorescein (donor chromophore) or tetramethylrhodamine (acceptor chromophore), and these species were used to determine lectin proximity. With granulocytic differentiation, the amount of concanavalin A bound remained constant, but a decrease in receptor density was observed. During macrophage differentiation, however, both receptor density and receptor number increased. The increase in concanavalin A binding during differentiation appears to be a result of maturation rather than an initiating event.

Abstract
Reed-Sternberg cells from ten cases of Hodgkin's disease were examined by the direct immunofluorescence technique, for their affinity for nine lectins. The surrounding lymphocytes and monocytes of HD tissue were also assessed for their ability to bind lectins. RS cells showed considerable heterogeneity of reaction. Overall, there was a marked decrease in the binding of most of the lectins studied in HD cases as compared to normal peripheral blood mononuclear cells. This was particularly evident for RCA, PHA and PNA binding. It is suggested that there is a defect in carbohydrate metabolism, with fewer lectin-binding sites on both RS cells and on the mononuclear cell populations in Hodgkin's disease. Further quantitative work is required to verify this.

Abstract
Normal and leukaemic lymphoid cells, both human and murine, were stained for specific carbohydrates with three fluorescein-labelled lectins: Aprotinin for sialyl (or uronyl) groups: Ricinus agglutinin for galactosyl groups; and Concanavalin A for mannosyl (or glucosyl) groups. The method gives permanent preparations of sections from methanol fixed, paraffin embedded tissues, from blood and bone marrow films or touch preparations of lymph nodes that were methanol fixed. Whereas normal lymphocytes and lymphoblasts reacted strongly for sialyl groups, lymphoblasts of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia and lymphocytes of chronic lymphocytic leukaemia gave a much weaker reaction. The same was the case of the lymphocytes of the Sézary variant and the lymphocytes of macroglobulinaemia. The fine processes of the cells of hairy cell leukaemia stained well for sialyl groups. No obvious differences were detected between normal monocytes and the cells of monocytic leukaemia, nor between normal plasma cells and those of myeloma.

Abstract
The incubation of linoleic acid with cells causes profound effects on membrane asociated phenomenon. Using the fluorescent probe diphenyl hexatriene (DPH) to monitor lipid changes in the microenvironment of the cell surface, we find that linoleic acid reduces the polarization values (P) in mouse lymphocytes and BHK cells. Measurements on lipids extracted from the cells grown in linoleic acid produce similar results. We also find in the mouse lymphocyte that capping of Ig is inhibited and con A stimulated mitogenesis is unaffected. In contrast to the latter effect, LPS and PHA stimulated mitogenesis is inhibited and in the rat lymph node, con A stimulated mitogenesis, greatly enhanced. We also show that linoleic acid alters the binding of antibodies to the cell surface of EL-4 lymphoma cells. These observations suggest that linoleic acid alters cellular function by interfering with protein/lipid interactions within the surface membrane.

Abstract
Fluorescein-substituted lectins, which can be used to visualize cell surface glycoconjugates, are shown to be usable in the quantitative determination of the number of receptor sites and of their association constant. The fluorescence measurements of the fluorescein-substituted lectins released from the cell surface with the related inhibitor, give quantitative data in a large range of fluorescein-substituted lectin concentration (0.1 to 100 microgram/ml). Using fluorescein-substituted concanavalin A or [3H]acetyl-concanavalin A, it was found that baby hamster kidney cells (BHK 21, wild-type) bind 10 +/- 2 x 10(6) lectin molecules per cell with an apparent association constant of 1.8 or 1.7 x 10(6) 1 x mol-1, respectively. Using the fluoresceinyl and [3H]acetyl-substituted wheat germ agglutinin, we found 40 +/- 5 x 10(6) sites per cell with an apparent binding constant of 1 and 1.3 +/- 0.3 x 10(6) 1 x mol-1, respectively. When fluorescein-substituted succinyl wheat germ agglutinin was used instead of the unsuccinylated wheat germ agglutinin derivatives, the number of binding sites was reduced 7 times, while the binding constant was very slightly lowered. Concanavalin A derivatives gave monotonic Scatchard plots; on the opposite, wheat germ agglutinin derivatives gave biphasic Scatchard plots suggesting that wheat germ agglutinin binds to two classes of receptors.

Abstract
Methodical investigations on the coupling of lectins (Con A, LcL, WGA, RcA) to tetramethylrhodamine isothiocyan ate (TRITC) are reported. 20-microgram of TRITC per mg of lectin were found to be the optimal amount of TRITC for the conjugation. With this fluorochrome: protein ratio conjugates were produced which resulted in a specific and brilliant fluorescence in tissue staining. The optimally conjugated lectins were separated on DEAE-Sephadex-A 50. Using two different lectins which were conjugated with TRITC or FITC, respectively, a double labeling of different lectin-binding sites in tissue sections was achieved.

Abstract
Erythrocytes coated with varying amounts of human complement were used to detect lymphocytes with complement receptors from normal subjects and patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. The relationship between the percentage of lymphocytes rosetting and the quantity of C3 present on complement-coated erythrocytes were studied. Small quantities of C3 (less than 5 fg/erythrocyte) caused maximal rosetting of normal lymphocytes. Maximal rosetting with chronic lymphocytic leukemia lymphocytes was not reached until much greater amounts of C3 were used to coat the erythrocytes. This difference in sensitivity to erythrocyte-bound complement was not due to an increased fraction of complement receptor-bearing cells in the leukemic patients. This loss of sensitivity of the chronic lymphocytic leukemia lymphocyte for complement may play a role in the immune deficiency present in this disease.

Abstract
The changes occurring in the expression of a membrane-associated antigen following binding of specific antibodies and the fate of the bound antibodies were investigated. Daudi cells, carrying membrane 7S IgM molecules, were coated with radio-labelled anti-IgM antibodies and incubated under culture conditions at 37degrees C. Within 10 h, more than 80% of the cellbound radioactivity was shed from the cells into the culture medium. Concomitantly, IgM molecules were lost, as the cells had a diminished ability to bind a new aliquot of antibody. This phenomenon occurred also when the antibody was used at a low concentration, i.e. did not saturate the cell-surface antigens. The precipitability of the antibody released from the cells with 10% TCA and 40% saturated ammonium sulphate was lower than that of native antibody, indicating some degradation. Also, shed antibody could rebind to fresh Daudi cells less efficiently than native antibody. The presence of immune complexes in the culture supernatants was indicated by the following results: (1) some of the shed radioactivity could bind to IgM-negative but Fc receptor-bearing cells; and (2) immune precipitates of sheep anti-IgM shed from 3H-leucine labelled Daudi cells and of rabbit anti-sheep IgG antibodies contained 3H activity.

Abstract
Lymphocytes isolated from the peripheral blood and from tumor tissues of patients with African Burkitt's lymphoma have been studied for cap formation and agglutinability by Concanavalin A (Con A). Peripheral blood from healthy adult persons served as a normal control and blood from patients with carcinoma served as a non-lymphoma control. These studies included 29 patients with Burkitt's lymphoma, 93 with carcinoma, and 105 healthy adult persons, as well as tumor tissues from 13 patients with Burkitt's lymphoma. The great majority of the carcinomas were from the face and neck regions. Lymphocytes from the blood of the majority of patients with Burkitt's lymphoma, as well as those from tumor tissues, exhibited a reduced cap-forming ability (2-6%) and increased Con-A-induced agglutinability compared to lymphocytes from healthy normal donors and from patients with carcinoma, although some of the lymphocytes from patients with carcinoma had a somewhat lower range of cap formation than the lymphocytes from healthy donors. No difference was observed in the interaction with Con A of lymphocytes from the different types of carcinoma studied. Eight lymphoid cell lines were established in our laboratory from the tumor tissues of patients with Burkitt's lymphoma. The cap-forming ability and agglutinability by Con A of these lines was examined and compared to those of the "classical" lymphoma lines: Raji, Daudi and P3HR1. All cell lines exhibited an increased Con-A-induced agglutinability and a reduced cap-forming ability compared to normal lymphocytes, except for P3HR1 cells which exhibited a cap-forming ability of 15-20%. These findings are discussed in relation to the association of the lymphocytes with malignancy and as a possible aid in the differential diagnosis between malignant lymphomas and other diseases.

Abstract
Short term effects (1 hours or less) of various lectins on phospholipid turnover in human lymphocytes were studied. As expected, concanvalin A and phytohemagglutinin produced 1,5-4.0 fold increases in incorporation of 32PO4 radioactivity into phospholipids (primarily phosphatidylinositol). Wheat germ agglutinin, a nonmitogenic lectin, not only failed to produce a response but actually inhibited phospholipid turnover, both in the presence and absence of PHA or con A. Since wheat germ agglutinin did not appear to be cytotoxic, as defined by a failure to see changes in vital dye uptake, and other evidence from our laboratory indicates that this lectin also inhibits aminisobutyric acid transport and DNA synthesis in human lymphocytes we would tentatively interpret its negative action as indicating the existence of specific inhibitory domains on the cell surface.

Abstract
Treatment of untransformed mouse and hamster cells with the tertiary amine local anesthetics dibucaine, tetracaine and procaine increases their susceptibility to agglutination by low doses of the plant lectin concanavalin A. Agglutination of anesthetic-treated untransformed cells by low doses of concanavalin A is accompanied by redistribution of concanavalin A receptors on the cell surface to form patches, similar to that occurring in spontaneous agglutination of virus-transformed cells by concanavalin A. Immunofluorescence and freeze-fracture electronmicroscopic observations indicate that local anesthetics per se do not induce this redistribution of concanavalin A receptors but modify the plasma membrane so that receptor redistribution is facilitated on binding of concanavalin A to the cell surface. Fluorescence polarization measurements on the rotational freedom of the membrane-associated probe, diphenylhexatriene, indicate that local anesthetics produce a small increase in the fluidity of membrane lipids. Spontaneous agglutination of transformed cells by low doses of concanavalin A is inhibited by colchicine and vinblastine but these alkaloids have no effect on concanavalin A agglutination of anesthetic-treated cells. Evidence is presented which suggests that local anesthetics may impair membrane peripheral proteins sensitive to colchicine (microtubules) and cytochalasin-B (microfilaments). Combined treatment of untransformed 3T3 cells with colchicine and cytochalasin B mimics the effect of local anesthetics in enhancing susceptibility to agglutination by low doses of concanavalin A. A hypothesis is presented on the respective roles of colchicine-sensitive and cytochalasin B-sensitive peripheral membrane proteins in controlling the topographical distribution of lectin receptors on the cell surface.

Abstract
The cell-to-cell binding induced by concanavalin A (Con A) and the lectins from wheatgerm, soybean, and waxbean has been analyzed by measuring the ability of single cells to bind to lectin-coated cells immobilized on nylon fibers. The cells used were lymphoma, myeloid leukemia, and normal fibroblast cells. With all lectins, cell-to-cell binding was inhibited if both cells were prefixed with glutaraldehyde. However, in most cases cell-to-cell binding was enhanced when only the lectin-coated cell was prefixed. With normal fibroblasts, treatment of either one or both cells with trypsin enhanced the cell-to-cell binding induced by Con A and the wheatgerm lectin. Neuraminidase, which increases the number of receptors for soybean agglutinin, increased cell-to-cell binding only if both cells were treated. Although cell-to-cell binding induced by the lectins from soybean and wheatgerm could be partially reversed by the appropriate competitive saccharide inhibitor, binding induced by Con A could not be reversed. The experiments indicate that cell-to-cell binding induced by a lectin can be prevented by an insufficient density of receptors for the lectin, insufficient receptor mobility, or induced clustering of receptors. These effects can explain the differences in cell-to-cell binding and agglutination observed with different cell types and lectins. They also suggest that cell-to-cell binding induced by different lectins with a variety of cell types is initiated by a mechanism involving the alignment of complementary receptors on the colliding cells for the formation of multiple cell-to-lectin-to-cell bridges.

Abstract
Concanavalin A (Con A) induces movement of its receptors on the cell surface membrane. This induction results in a concentration of Con A site complexes on one pole of the cell to form a cap. A marked difference was found in the mobility of Con A receptor between lymphocytes from normal persons and lymphocytes from patients with Hodgkin's disease and other malignant lymphomas. Lymphocytes isolated from tonsils of patients undergoing tonsillectomy and from axillary lymph nodes of breast cancer patients exhibited approximately 30% of cells with caps, which is identical with the cap formation ability of normal lymphocytes. In biopsy material from patients with Hodgkin's disease and other malignant lymphomas, a significant decrease in the ability of the lymphocytes to form caps was observed. This difference in the mobility of Con A sites was even more pronounced in lymphocytes isolated from the peripheral blood. In 123 patients with Hodgkin's disease and other malignant lymphomas, cap formation ranged between 3 and 12%. The ability of cells, from a normal donor or a lymphoma patient, to form caps was independent of the source from which the lymphocytes were isolated, e.g., lymph node, spleen, or blood. Lymphocytes from patients with lymphoma were also agglutinated by Con A to a higher degree than normal lymphocytes. These findings are discussed in relation to the association of the lymphocytes with these malignancies and as a possible aid in their differential diagnosis.

Abstract
The phenomenon of redistribution of surface membrane immunoglobulin (Ig) components (capping) has been well described in mouse lymphoid cells. The characteristics of this process in human lymphocytes are less clear. This study characterizes the phenomenon of surface membrane Ig redistribution of normal and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) lymphocytes with the use of fluoroscein-labeled anti-Ig sera. Normal lymphocytes underwent rapid cap formation after incubation with anti-Ig serum in the cold and subsequent rewarming. The morphology was characteristic with aggregation over the pole of the cell opposite the nucleus and over the uropod when present. The process was energy dependent but independent of protein synthesis, and could be inhibited by vincristine, vinblastine, and colchicine but not by cytochalasin B. CLL cells, on the other hand, though showing fluorescent complex aggregation on the surface, rarely demonstrated unidirectional movement of these aggregates to form a cap. Cap formation in these cells could not be stimulated by supplementing the energy source or protein concentration of the medium nor by adding glutamic acid which could partially reverse the vincristine and vinblastine inhibition of normal capping. The failure of agents which inhibit motility to inhibit capping of the normal lymphocytes suggests that active locomotion is not a direct prerequisite for capping. The results also suggest the involvement of microtubules in normal capping and the possibility that abnormal membrane structure or microtubular function could explain the failure of CLL cells to behave normally in this regard. The role of this cellular defect in the immune deficiencies exhibited by many patients with CLL, however, is not established.

Abstract
The cell-cell binding induced by concanavalin A between single cells has been analyzed by use of cells attached to nylon fibers. Binding of a concanavalin A-coated cell to an untreated cell was found to a high degree between two lymphoma tumor cells, less frequently between a lymphoma cell and a normal lymphocyte, and only rarely between two normal lymphocytes. The binding was inhibited by the presence of a saccharide inhibitor of concanavalin A, but could not be reversed by addition of the inhibitor after the cells had bound to each other. Although no binding was obtained when both cells were coated with lectin or fixed with glutaraldehyde, fixation of a cell before coating with concanavalin A enhanced its ability to bind an untreated cell. The results indicate that cell-cell binding induced by concanavalin A requires short-range lateral movement of cell receptors for the lectin, that only one cell has to have mobile receptors, and that some receptors must be unoccupied by lectin molecules before cell-cell contact. Clustering of the receptors is not necessary and seems to hinder cell-cell binding. It is suggested that the short-range movement is required for alignment of individual receptors so as to form multi-point bridges between two cells by lectin molecules. The bridging is then followed by the formation of irreversible bonds between the cells. The receptors on tumor cells appear to have a greater ability than receptors on normal cells to align themselves for cell-cell binding.
