title: 15-HETE "modulates" expression of C3b receptor (CR1) antigen on peripheral blood B-lymphocytes.
abstract: We have studied the effect of the lipoxygenase metabolite, 15-HETE, on the expression of the human C3b receptor (CR1) by a B-lymphocyte enriched population of human peripheral blood leukocytes. The number of CR1 antigenic sites expressed by B-lymphocytes isolated from HLA typed donors was determined by equilibrium binding studies using an 125 I-labelled mouse monoclonal anti CR1 antibody before and after 16 hrs incubation in RPMI alone or containing 10(-6)M, 10(-7)M or 10(-8)M final concentration of 15-HETE. In B44- subjects CR1 expression on B cells increased 63% after incubation in RPMI alone. This increase was inhibited in the presence of 10(-6)M and 10(-7)M 15-HETE (23% and 30% increase respectively). In contrast, B44+ individuals showed a smaller increase in CR1 numbers when incubated in RPMI alone. In the presence of 15-HETE CR1 antigenic sites continued to increase. When B44+ subjects were classified as A29+ or A29-, donors that were A29+ B44+ accounted for the augmentation observed while A29- B44+ individuals did not differ from individuals that were A29- B44-.
