- W2108677908 abstract "Access of intracellular Ags SSA/Ro and SSB/La to cognate maternal autoantibodies is unexplained despite their strong association with congenital heart block. To investigate the hypothesis that apoptosis facilitates surface accessibility of these Ags, human fetal cardiac myocytes from 16- to 22-wk abortuses were established in culture using a novel technique in which cells were isolated after perfusing the aorta with collagenase. Confirmation of cardiac myocytes included positive staining with antisarcomeric α-actinin and contractility induced by 1.8 mM calcium. Incubation with 0.5 μM staurosporine or 0.3 mM 2,3-dimethoxy-1,4-naphthoquinone induced the characteristic morphologic and biochemical changes of apoptosis. The cellular topology of Ro and La was evaluated with confocal microscopy and determined in nonapoptotic and apoptotic cardiocytes by indirect immunofluorescence. In permeabilized nonapoptotic cardiocytes, Ro and La were predominantly nuclear, and propidium iodide (PI) stained the nucleus. In early apoptotic cardiocytes, condensation of the PI- and Ro- or La-stained nucleus was observed, accompanied by Ro/La fluorescence around the cell periphery. In later stages of apoptosis, nuclear Ro and La staining became weaker, and PI demonstrated nuclear fragmentation. Ro/La-stained blebs emerged from the cell membrane, a finding observed in nonpermeabilized cells, supporting an Ab-Ag interaction at the cell surface. In summary, induction of apoptosis in cultured cardiocytes results in surface translocation of Ro/La and recognition by Abs. Although apoptotic cells are programmed to die and do not characteristically evoke inflammation, binding of maternal Abs and subsequent influx of leukocytes could damage surrounding healthy fetal cardiocytes." @default.
