Recognition and inactivation of LPS by lipophorin particles.

Abstract:

:Lipophorin is the major lipid carrier in insects, but various observations indicate that lipophorin is also involved in immune reactions. To examine a possible role of lipophorin in defence reactions, we mixed hemolymph plasma from Galleria mellonella with LPS and noticed that lipophorin forms detergent-insoluble aggregates, while most other plasma proteins are not affected. Lipophorin particles isolated by low-density gradient centrifugation retained LPS-induced aggregation properties, which suggested to us that these immune-reactive particles are able to recognise LPS and respond by forming insoluble aggregates. Antibodies against LPS-binding proteins, such as immulectin-2 and beta-1,3-glucan binding protein, cross-reacted with proteins associated with purified lipophorin particles. To examine whether LPS-mediated aggregates inactivate LPS, we added LPS-lipophorin mixtures to purified lipophorin particles and monitored aggregate formation. Under these conditions lipophorin did not form insoluble aggregates, which indicates that lipophorin particles sequester LPS into non-toxic aggregates.
