Abstract:
:In order to determine whether the human lactotransferrin receptor recently described on platelets was also present on hematopoietic precursors, we investigated its presence and characteristics on the megakaryocytic Dami cell line. The reversible binding of human 5-(([2-(carbo(hydrazino)methyl]thio)acetyl)aminofluorescein-labele d lactotransferrin showed that such a receptor was only present on the subpopulation of the largest cells. The increase in numbers of large cells during culture was paralleled by a concurrent increase in lactotransferrin receptor positive cells. Scatchard analysis of the binding of [125I]-labeled lactotransferrin showed that a single affinity class of binding site was present (Kd = 446 +/- 40 nM) and that there were 52 +/- 3 x 10(5) sites per cell. The mouse monoclonal antibody DP5B3G10, specific for the human lactotransferrin receptor, allowed its characterization as a 105 kDa protein on Western blots. The same monoclonal antibody was used to separate the small and large cell subpopulations of Dami cells by panning. Separate culture of the small cells showed that the receptor appeared prior to and independent from endomitosis. In contrast, GPIb was expressed only by large megakaryocytes. The use of conditioned medium from cultures of whole Dami cell populations indicated that a soluble factor is involved in differentiation, but not in the appearance of the lactotransferrin receptor.
