Abstract:
Objective To study the internalization mediated by heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) receptors expressed on the surface of dendritic cells (DCs). Methods DCs from C57BL/6 mouse bone marrow were divided into HSP70 receptor-blocking group, non-receptor-blocking group and control group. The HSP70-FITC positive cells were detected by flow cytometry (FCM). Results FCM indicated that in HSP70 receptor-blocking group, the HSP70 receptors could be almost totally blocked by 50?g HSP70. With the increase of HSP70-FITC dosage, the number of HSP70-FITC positive cells increased. In non-receptor-blocking group, the rates of the HSP70-FITC positive cells were up to 90% either when 50?g HSP70-FITC or 100?g HSP70-FITC was used with no remarkable difference between them. Conclusions The internalization mediated by HSP70 receptors plays a major role in the stage of ingestion of HSP70 with the characteristics of saturation and priority. Once the receptors are blocked, non-receptor pathway participates in internalization in a dose-dependent manner.
