Abstract

Four types of lymphocyte chemotactic factor (LCF-a, -b, -c and -d) could be isolated from extract of 24-hr-old delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) skin reaction sites induced with purified protein derivative (PPD) in guinea-pigs by gel filtration on Sephadex G-100 followed by chromatography with DEAE-Sephadex. Partially purified LCF-b was thought to be a heat-stable protein with a molecular weight (mol. wt.) of about 14,000. LCF-c separated from LCF-d by chromatography with DEAE-Sephadex was highly purified by chromatography with CM-Sephadex, immunoadsorbent chromatography coupled with anti-IgG antibody, and chromatofocusing in that order. It was considered to be a heat-labile protein with a mol. wt. of about 160,000 and with pI of 8.1 +/- 0.2. LCF-d first separated from LCF-c was also highly purified by chromatography with CM-Sephadex followed by preparative isotachophoresis. The factor was considered to be a heat-labile protein with a mol. wt. of approximately 300,000 and with pI of 6.2 +/- 0.2. These factors were similarly active for non-adherent cells (mostly T cells) but not for cells (mostly B cells) adherent to anti-IgG antibody-coated petri-dishes. Since LCF-a was active for B cells as described earlier, it is thus suggested that LCF-b, LCF-c and LCF-d may be important for T cell migration in the DTH site to PPD.
