The binding of normal cat IgG, heat-aggregated cat IgG and specific immune complexes (IC) containing cat IgG to a silica matrix containing covalently bound Staphylococcus aureus protein A was evaluated. The amounts of serum relative to protein A-silica, the flow rates and the perfusion times were representative of those existing when protein A-silica columns are used for therapeutic extracorporeal immunoadsorption of IgG and IC from humans and animals. When cat IgG was present in a large excess, approximately one molecule was bound to the matrix per molecule of solid-phase protein A with a KA of 1.5 X 10(6) 1/mol. Aggregated and immune complexed IgG bound to the matrix with relatively higher affinity. IC prepared in vitro between the purified envelope glycoprotein of the feline leukemia virus (FeLV gp70) and affinity-purified cat antibodies bound to the matrix even though normal IgG was present in greater than 10,000-fold excess. Once bound, IC were not eluted from columns upon further perfusion with normal serum. However, bound IgG was eluted from columns by further perfusion of normal serum or IC. IC were at least five-fold more efficient than normal IgG in exerting this effect. The results suggest that protein A-silica columns can be used for preferential removal of IC from plasma in a clinical or experimental setting. |
