Abstract:
:The role of the wound epithelium in amphibian limb regeneration is not understood. We showed previously that monoclonal antibody (mAb) WE3 stains the wound epithelium but not skin epidermis, suggesting that the WE3 antigen may be a marker for, or be important in, the function of the wound epithelium. In the present study, we conducted an extensive immunohistochemical survey of adult newt tissues to define the distribution of the WE3 antigen. The results show that the antigen is most commonly found in tissues specialized in macromolecular secretion and/or ion transport. Since the enzyme, carbonic anhydrase, serves as a useful marker for a variety of specialized transporting cell types, we examined whether this enzyme was present in WE3-reactive cells. Of the tissues examined, a striking degree of colocalization of carbonic anhydrase and the WE3 antigen was observed, further strengthening the view that the WE3 antigen is an important constituent of specialized transporting cells. A preliminary biochemical characterization suggests that the antigen is probably a glycoprotein, which elutes during gel filtration as a species of over 660 kDa. Possible implications for the function of the wound epithelium are discussed.
