Abstract
IgG autoantibodies in human serum selectively bind to a glycopeptide antigen that appears on senescent and damaged cells in situ. We identified the membrane protein from which the senescent cell antigen is derived by using a phagocytosis-inhibition assay and immunoautoradiographic gel staining and electroblotting techniques. Results of the phagocytosis-inhibition assay revealed that only the purified transmembrane glycoprotein designated "band 3" and senescent cell antigen inhibited the phagocytosis of erythrocytes induced by IgG eluted from senescent erythrocytes. Purified spectrin, syndein, band 4.1, actin, glycophorin A, and intact or desialylated sialoglycoprotein periodic acid/Schiff (PAS) staining bands 1-4 containing glycophorins A, B, and C did not inhibit phagocytosis. Specific antibodies against the senescent cell antigen and erythrocyte band 3 were used to identify the membrane protein from which the senescent cell antigen is derived. Band 3-related polypeptides (MrS approximately equal to 60,000, 42,000, and 18-26,000) were identified in erythrocyte ghosts prepared in the presence of diisopropyl fluorophosphate, phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, and EDTA by immunoautoradiography with antiband 3. Antibodies to senescent cell antigen reacted with band 3 and the same lower Mr band 3-related polypeptides. Thus, the senescent cell antigen is immunologically related to band 3
