In this study, we analyzed the presence of a Thy-1 homolog in the earthworm, Lumbricus terrestris, using several monoclonal and xenoantisera in indirect immunofluorescence (IF) assay. The reactivity of monoclonal antibodies Thy-1.1 and Thy-1.2 proved specificities to the Thy-1.1 determinant. A rabbit anti-rat Thy-1 (Thy-1.1) antiserum was further investigated in IF assay by in vitro quantitative absorption. In all assays, earthworm leucocytes inhibited reactivity of antiserum as effectively as rat thymocytes in contrast to BALB/c (Thy-1.2) thymocytes. Thus, a Thy-1.1 crossreacting determinant is probably expressed by a Thy-1 homolog on leucocytes of earthworms. The serological similarity between the earthworm Thy-1 homolog and the Thy-1 molecule in vertebrates will be strengthened by future immunochemical data.
