Problems solved by technology

Notably, none of the receptors of known specificity appear to be restricted to lymphocytes and the chemokines that recognize these receptors cannot, therefore, account for events such as the selective recruitment of T lymphocytes that is observed in T cell-mediated inflammatory conditions.
Moreover, although a number of proteins with significant sequence similarity and similar tissue and leukocyte subpopulation distribution to known chemokine receptors have been identified and cloned, the ligands for these receptors remain undefined.

Cloning of Receptor cDNA

[0165]Standard molecular biology techniques were used (Sambrook, J. et al., 1989, Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y.).

[0166]DNA fragments coding for putative T lymphocyte-restricted chemokine receptors were generated using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Two degenerate oligonucleotide primers were designed based on conserved motifs of chemokine receptors. Primer design was based on the conserved nucleotide sequences within transmembrane domain 2 (TM2) and transmembrane domain 7 (TM7) of the chemokine receptors IL-8RI (CXCR1), IL-8R2 (CXCR2), CC-CKR1 (CCR1), CC-CKR2 (CCR2) and the orphan receptors EBI I, LESTR, and BLR1 / MDR15 (EBI I, Birkenbach, M. et al., J. Virol., 67: 2209-2220 (1993)); LESTR, Loetscher, M. et al., J. Biol. Chem., 269: 232-237 (1994); and BLR1 / MDR15, Dobner, T. et al., Eur. J. Immunol., 22: 2795-2799 (1992) and Barella, L. et al., Biochem. J., 309: 773-779 (1995)).

Biological Activity

Expression in Activated T Lymphocytes

[0174]In view of the observed chemokine selectivity, the occurrence of the IP-10 / MigR in leukocytes and related cell lines was examined by Northern blot analysis. 10 μg samples of total RNA were examined from freshly isolated human blood monocytes, neutrophils, lymphocytes (PBL), nylon-wool purified T cells, and from cultured cells including cloned human CD4+ T cells (KT30) and CD8+ T cells (ERCD8), cloned NK cells (ERNK57), and PBL cultured for 10 days (1-2.5×106 cells / ml in RPMI 1640 medium containing 2 mM glutamine, 1× non-essential amino acids, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, 100 μg / ml kanamycin, 5×10−5 M 2-mercaptoethanol, and 5% human serum) in the presence of 400 U / ml hrIL-2. (human recombinant IL-2 was a gift of Dr. A. Lanzavecchia, Basel Institute of Immunology, Basel, Switzerland). Agarose gels were stained with ethidium bromide to check the integrity and amount of total RNA on the gel prior to blotting. RNA samples were analyz...

[0210]IP-10 Binds with High Affinity to a Receptor Expressed on L1.2 Cells Transfected with CXCR3 DNA and on Activated T Cells

[0211]Additional binding studies were performed using radiolabeled IP-10. Chemokine binding to target cells was carried out as described previously (Ponath, P. D., et al.,J. Clin. Invest., 97:604-612 (1996); Van Riper, G., et al., J. Exp. Med., 177(3):851-856 (1993)). Cells were washed once in PBS and resuspended in binding buffer (50 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 1 mM CaCl2, 5 mM MgCl2, 0.5% BSA, and 0.05% azide) at a concentration of 107 / ml. Aliquots of 50 μl (5×105 cells) were dispensed into microfuge tubes, followed by the addition of cold competitor (unlabeled IP-10) and radiolabeled chemokine (0.05 nM 125I-labeled IP-10). The final reaction volume was 200 Nonspecific binding was determined by incubating cells with radiolabeled chemokines in the presence of 250-500 nM of unlabeled chemokines. After a 60-minute incubation at room temperature, the cells were washed th...

Abstract

The present invention relates to proteins or polypeptides, referred to herein as isolated and / Or recombinant mammalian (e.g., human) IP-10 / Mig receptor proteins designated CXC Chemokine Receptor 3 (CXCR3) and variants thereof, including those characterized by selective binding of one or more chemokines (e.g., IP-10 and / or Mig), and / or the ability to induce a cellular response (e.g., chemotaxis, exocytosis). Antibodies reactive with CXCR3 receptors can be produced using the proteins or variants thereof or host cells comprising same as immunogen.
