Figure Lengend Snippet: HAb18G/CD147 accumulates to the cap and lipid rafts in T cells upon TCR stimulation confirmed by confocal microscopy and Western blot. (A, B, C, D) HAb18G/CD147 co-caps with CD4/CD8/CD48/GM1. T cells were prepared and stained as described previously in ‘Materials and methods’. HAb18G/CD147, TCR co-receptor CD4 and CD8, lipid raft marker CD48 and GM1 diffusely distribute on the cell membrane of resting T cells (upper panel of –D), whereas stimulation results in translocation of these molecules to the cap induced by TCR/CD3 (lower panel of –D), scale bar, 5 μm. (E) HAb18G/CD147 is recruited to lipid rafts upon T cell activation. Lipid rafts were isolated as described previously in ‘Materials and methods’. Sucrose fractions were analysed by Western blot with HAb18, anti-Fyn and anti-Rab5 antibodies. Detergent-insoluble membrane fractions containing isolated rafts were identified by the presence of the raft marker protein Fyn. Non-raft components of the membrane ( e.g. Rab5) were purified in the heavy fraction (HF). HAb18G/CD147 appeared constitutively in the HF (7–9) with the non-raft marker Rab5 in resting T cells, a significant fraction of HAb18G/CD147 was localized within raft fractions (1–4) after T cell activation.
