To assess performance more quantitatively, the log 10 of the red-to-green ratio (log 10 (R/G)) for each antibody spot was analyzed as a function of the concentration of the cognate antigen (Figure 3).
For immune and inflammatory response, the team identified many genes associated with aberrant immune response; it is not surprising, perhaps, to find a general up-regulation of immune response and antigen presentation in IBD.
Previously we have described the interaction of the extracellular domain of proHB-EGF with the second extracellular domain of the tetraspanin protein, monkey CD9 [ 9 ] . Tissue culture experiments using DT-sensitive transfected mouse fibroblast cell lines expressing on the cell surface both the monkey DT receptor and chimeric mouse-monkey CD9 antigen showed that the second extracellular domain of monkey CD9 antigen is able to act as a coreceptor for DT and is also responsible for the increased DT-sensitivity and affinity for DT in these cell lines [ 9 ] . These observations suggested that the CD9 antigen and proHB-EGF likely interact physically on the cell surface.
The antigen is present on pluripotent HSCs, and all unipotent myeloid and erythroid-colony-forming cells [ 23], but CD34 is also recognized on vascular endothelial cells, basement-membrane structures, and dendritic and perifollicular cells in human skin [ 24, 25].
Further studies indicated that CD8 +T cells exhibit oligoclonality in the peripheral blood [ 3 4 ] and synovial fluid of RA patients [ 5 ] , raising the question of whether this oligoclonality is antigen driven.
