Abstract
We propose a novel immunotherapeutic paradigm that justifies application of several antibodies to various membrane-associated antigens to achieve a critical threshold density of immune complexes on the surface of cancer cells sufficient for triggering downstream cytolytic pathways. Indeed, some cancer-associated antigens (such as cancer/testis antigens) were found to be expressed on many cancer (but not normal) cells, with their baseline membrane expression levels being originally quite low for some of them, or even further down-regulated due to immune-driven cell selection. To achieve the mandatory threshold density of membrane-associated immune complexes on malignant cells, the concept stipulates combined application of antibodies specific for a cancer-associated antigen along with antibodies against an antigen expressed not only on tumor, but also on normal cells. In the proposed scenario it is of vital importance that the latter antibodies should be applied in suboptimal dosage to exclude the destruction of normal cells devoid of a cancer-associated antigen. Malignant cells often co-express antigens not present concurrently on normal cells at high levels. In such cases, suboptimal dosages of antibodies specific for those antigens could also be applied to achieve cumulative effect leading to selective destruction of tumour cells. Hence, the described immunotherapeutic technology could be used metaphorically speaking as a kind of ‘immunological knife’, which is capable of highly selective destruction of cancer cells without destroying normal cells.

Abstract
The pathology associated with spinal cord injury (SCI) is caused not only by primary mechanical trauma, but also by secondary responses of the injured CNS. The inflammatory response to SCI is robust and plays an important but complex role in the progression of many secondary injury-associated pathways. Although recent studies have begun to dissect the beneficial and detrimental roles for inflammatory cells and proteins after SCI, many of these neuroimmune interactions are debated, not well understood, or completely unexplored. In this regard, the complement cascade is a key component of the inflammatory response to SCI, but is largely underappreciated, and our understanding of its diverse interactions and effects in this pathological environment is limited. In this review, we discuss complement in the context of SCI, first in relation to traditional functions for complement cascade activation, and then in relation to novel roles for complement proteins in a variety of models.

Abstract
The metabolic consequences of non-lethal complement-membrane attack in neutrophils have been investigated by the measurement of cellular ATP content and functional parameters, including chemotactic and phagocytic responses and the capacity to secrete reactive oxygen metabolites, in cells before and after attack. Immediately after non-lethal complement attack, cellular ATP content was reduced by more than 75%, although lactate dehydrogenase content was unaltered. Energy-requiring cell functions were similarly depressed. Incubation of cells in nutrient medium rapidly restored cell-energy stores and functions, demonstrating the completeness of recovery. Fluorescence-activated cell-sorter studies demonstrated that cells undergoing non-lethal complement attack underwent a reversible cell swelling, the cell diameter rapidly increasing from an average of 8.5 micron to 12 micron, then gradually shrinking back to a final average diameter of 8.2 micron. The results indicate that although non-lethal complement-membrane attack causes both metabolic and physical changes in neutrophils, these effects are transient and full functional recovery occurs.

Abstract
Flow cytometry was used to quantify the fluorescence of propidium iodide in rat polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMN) attacked by the membrane attack complex (MAC) in order to establish the existence of permeability and lytic thresholds in individual cells, a 'threshold' being defined as a cellular event involving the rapid transition of cells from one state to another under physiological conditions. Activation of the complement pathway resulted in PMN being attacked by MAC within 5 min. Approximately 30-40% of the cell population subsequently became permeable to small molecules and macromolecules. Individual PMN passed through 'thresholds' of cell permeability and cell lysis, or recovered from complement attack at different times. In the flow cytometer, three distinct populations of PMN were identified: cells that had recovered before the permeability 'threshold', cells that had recovered after the permeability 'threshold' but before the lytic 'threshold', and cells that failed to recover from complement attack. Individual PMN attacked by MAC passed through permeability and lytic thresholds at different times after an initial lag of 7.5 +/- 2.5 min and 11.5 +/- 1.0 min, respectively. Adenosine, an activator of adenylate cyclase, inhibited removal of MAC from the cell surface. Consequently, more cells passed through the permeability and lytic 'thresholds', resulting in an increased percentage of lysed cells.

Abstract
Complement component C9 is a globular serum protein which can insert and polymerise in a target membrane to form a large membrane channel. The ability to insert in the membrane is conferred by amphipathetic elements of secondary structure in the central part of the molecule. Towards each end high cysteine domains are found, one of which is homologous to the apoprotein binding domains of the LDL receptor. From the sequence and topological data for C9 we present a model for its structure and insertion into the membrane.

Abstract
Studies on erythrocytes have shown that the formation of the membrane attack complex on a cell surface inevitably results in lysis. However, it is known that nucleated cells are much more difficult to kill with complement, although the molecular basis of this resistance has never been established. We have shown that a very early intracellular event, occurring within seconds of formation of the attack complex in the membrane, is a rise in cytoplasmic Ca2+, which can activate cell responses without cell death 5,6. Here we report the use of a monoclonal antibody to the terminal complement component C9, quantified by 125I and visualized by fluorescein, to demonstrate a protection mechanism in polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) attacked by complement, involving removal of the attack complex by vesiculation. Concomitantly, there is a Ca2+-dependent activation of reactive oxygen metabolite production without cell lysis. These findings have important implications in the evolutionary and pathological significance of the terminal components of the complement pathway.

Abstract
The stimulation of reactive oxygen metabolite production from human polymorphonuclear leucocytes by chemotactic peptide (fMet-Leu-Phe) was inhibited by adenosine with a K0.5 of 0.6 microM. Dipyridamole (0.1 microM), an inhibitor of adenosine uptake, did not prevent the effect of adenosine. Non-metabolizable analogues could substitute for adenosine in the potency order N-ethoxycarboxamideadenosine greater than 2-chloroadenosine greater than adenosine greater than L-N6-(phenylisopropyl)adenosine = D-N6-(phenylisopropyl)adenosine, which is characteristic of an A2 adenosine receptor. The effects of adenosine, 2-chloroadenosine and N-ethoxycarboxamideadenosine were reversed by 8-phenyltheophylline. When endocytosis was inhibited with cytochalasin B, cells were still susceptible to adenosine receptor agonists. 2-Chloroadenosine (10 microM) reduced the activation of respiration in response to chemotactic peptide from 3.3-fold to 1.4-fold. Activation of reactive oxygen metabolite production in response to latex beads was not reversed by adenosine or its analogues. It was concluded that adenosine acts at an A2 adenosine receptor to antagonize the activation of polymorphonuclear leucocytes by those stimuli, such as chemotactic peptide, which cause an increase in the intracellular free Ca2+ concentration.

Abstract
The addition of haemolytic Sendai virus to cells induces membrane changes in the following sequence: (i) Increased permeability to ions, (ii) increased permeability to low molecular weight metabolites, (iii) increased permeability to proteins. The consequences of an increased permeability to ions are: (a) alteration of membrane potential, (b) net changes in intracellular cations and (c) cell swelling, in that order. Depending on virus: cell ratio, Ca2+ concentration and temperature, it is possible to observe ion leakage without metabolite or protein leakage, and ion and metabolite leakage without protein leakage. A model for the induction of permeability changes is presented.

Abstract
A new assay for membrane fusion, using the fluorescent probe pyrene-sulphonyl-phosphatidyl ethanolamine, has been developed. Fusion between the envelope of Sendai virus and human erythrocytes or Lettre cells has a Q10 of approximately 4 at 37 degrees C, increasing to approximately 7 at 7 degrees C; there is no lag to onset of fusion. Viral neuraminidase has a Q10 of 2.3 between 37 degrees C and 4 degrees C. Its action limits the extent of fusion by causing the elution of virus; this effect is particularly marked at low temperature because of the difference in Q10 for fusion and neuraminidase. The temperature-dependence of the initiation of permeability changes following the removal of inhibitory amounts of Ca2+ is approximately 2; thus membrane fusion is the principal temperature-sensitive step during the permeabilization of cells by Sendai virus. A recovery process, by which cells become insensitive to the removal of Ca2+ and which therefore limits the extent of permeabilization, has a Q10 of 7.4 between 37 degrees C and 21 degrees C. It is concluded that the lag to onset of permeability changes is not due to a lag in virus-cell membrane fusion, but to the gradual acquisition of a threshold level of membrane damage; the extent of permeabilization depends on the rate of fusion relative to the rates of neuraminidase and recovery.

Abstract
Luminol-enhanced chemiluminescence demonstrated that 2-chloroadenosine inhibited complement-induced reactive oxygen metabolite production in human polymorphonuclear leucocytes. This inhibition was reversed by 8-phenyltheophylline. Binding of a [125I]-labelled monoclonal antibody against C9 to human PMN demonstrated removal of membrane attack complexes from the cell membranes, and in addition indicated inhibition of this process by 2-chloroadenosine. This compound also increased the percentage of complement-induced cell lysis of polymorphonuclear leucocytes.

Abstract
Sendai virus-mediated permeability changes in Lettre cells or red blood cells are affected by extracellular Ca2+ in the following way: the lag period to onset of permeability changes is lengthened and the subsequent extent of leakage is reduced. Ca2+ neither stimulates nor inhibits fusion of the viral envelope to the plasma membrane of Lettre cells or red blood cells. It is concluded that Ca2+ protects cells against virally-induced permeability changes in a manner not involving membrane fusion.

Abstract
The aim of this paper is critically to evaluate the existing evidence for the role of intracellular Ca2+ in polymorphonuclear leucocyte (PMN) activation and in particular in oxygen radical production. Indirect experiments are based on the manipulation of extracellular Ca2+, measurement of 45Ca fluxes, employing pharmacological agents such as Ca2+-ionophores and intracellular Ca2+ antagonists and monitoring chlortetracycline fluorescence. Experiments of this type do not provide the necessary definitive evidence that an increase in intracellular Ca2+ is the trigger for PMN activation. Recent direct measurements of intracellular free Ca2+ using the Ca2+-activated photoprotein, obelin, and the Ca2+-sensitive fluorescent indicator, quin 2, have provided evidence for the existence of two distinct mechanisms of activation, one triggered by a rise in intracellular Ca2+ and the other independent of a rise in intracellular Ca2+. The source of the Ca2+ for the former mechanism is mainly extracellular but can also come from an intracellular Ca2+ store.
