| 1 | Identification of common and distinct origins of human serum and breastmilk IgA1 by mass spectrometry-based clonal profiling显示文摘The most abundant immunoglobulin present in the human body is IgA. It has the highest concentrations at the mucosal lining and in biofluids such as milk and is the second most abundant class of antibodies in serum. We assessed the structural diversity and clonal repertoire of IgA1-containing molecular assemblies longitudinally in human serum and milk from three donors using a mass spectrometry-based approach. IgA-containing molecules purified from serum or milk were assessed by the release and subsequent analysis of their Fab fragments. Our data revealed that serum IgA1 consists of two distinct structural populations, namely monomeric IgA1 (∼80%) and dimeric joining (J-) chain coupled IgA1 (∼20%). Also, we confirmed that IgA1 in milk is present solely as secretory (S)IgA, consisting of two (∼50%), three (∼33%) or four (∼17%) IgA1 molecules assembled with a J-chain and secretory component (SC). Interestingly, the serum and milk IgA1-Fab repertoires were distinct between monomeric, and J-chain coupled dimeric IgA1. The serum dimeric J-chain coupled IgA1 repertoire contained several abundant clones also observed in the milk IgA1 repertoire. The latter repertoire had little to no overlap with the serum monomeric IgA1 repertoire. This suggests that human IgA1s have (at least) two distinct origins;one of these produces dimeric J-chain coupled IgA1 molecules, shared in human serum and milk, and another produces monomeric IgA1 ending up exclusively in serum. | Kelly A.Dingess Max Hoek Danique M.Hvan Rijswijk Sem Tamara Maurits Aden Boer Tim Veth Mirjam J.A.Damen Arjan Barendregt Michelle Romijn Hannah G.Juncker Britt Jvan Keulen Gestur Vidarsson Johannes Bvan Goudoever Albert Bondt Albert J.R.Heck | 2023 | Cellular & Molecular Immunology2023，20，1： | 0 |
