Figure 2. LYST protein expression and lysosome size and distribution in Chediak-Higashi disease (CHD) fibroblasts
(A) High-molecular-weight immunoblots of protein extracts from normal control fibroblasts (lane 7), classic LYST-negative control fibroblasts CHD-16 (lane 3) and CHD-4 (lane 6), and 4 different CHD patients' fibroblast cultures; α-tubulin was used as a loading control. Fibroblasts from patients with atypical CHD (CHD-18, lane 1; CHD-17, lane 2; CHD-6, lane 4; and CHD-5, lane 5) have reduced levels of LYST expression. CHD-5 cells showed no LYST protein, despite the presence of a low level of residual RNA (∼20% of control). Please refer to our previous publication [Manoli I, Golas G, Westbroek W, et al. Chediak-Higashi syndrome with early developmental delay resulting from paternal heterodisomy of chromosome 1. Am J Med Genet A 2010;152A:1474–1483] for methods and antibody information. (B) Fibroblasts are stained with LAMP-1 antibodies (green) to visualize lysosomal membranes and with an F-actin marker (phalloidin, red) to visualize the cell boundaries. Control fibroblasts show a typical distribution of lysosomes throughout the cell. Classic CHD-4 fibroblasts show enlarged lysosomes restricted to the perinuclear area. CHD-5 fibroblasts show enlarged lysosomes in the perinuclear area and normal-sized lysosomes in the periphery. CHD-6 fibroblasts show slightly enlarged lysosomes. CHD-17 and CHD-18 fibroblasts have slightly enlarged lysosomes with a typical distribution of lysosomes throughout the cell. Marked white dotted squares in left panels are zoomed out in right panels. Scale bar 20 μm.
