New monoclonal antibodies that define multiple epitopes and a human-specific marker on the interleukin 2 receptor molecules of primates

Twelve hybridoma cell lines producing monoclonal antibodies to the human interleukin 2 (IL-2) receptor (IL-2R) molecule were prepared. These antibodies were characterized by competitive antibody-binding assay and sequential immunoprecipitation assay with four known monoclonal antibodies to the human IL-2R molecule. The twelve new monoclonal antibodies were divided among the four known antibody types, the HIEI-, H-A26-, H-31-, and anti-Tac-type, and an additional new type, the H-48-type. The H-48 antibody did not compete with any other antibodies in the competitive binding assay. The binding of 125I-IL-2 to MT-2 cells and the IL-2-dependent growth of normal activated T-cells were both strongly inhibited by all the H-31- and anti-Tac-type antibodies, and partially or slightly inhibited by HIEI- and H-A26-type antibodies, but were not inhibited by the H-48 antibody. Thus, the same type of monoclonal antibodies had a similar effect on the function of IL-2R. These results suggest that epitopes for the same type of antibodies could be single identical epitopes or epitopes closely associated with each other. On the other hand, these antibodies also reacted variously with a panel of various human and simian lymphoid cell lines immortalized with human T-cell leukemia virus type-I (HTLV-I): the H-45 antibody reacted only with the human cell lines, the H-C1 and H-44 and H-47 antibodies reacted with human and ape cell lines, and the other antibodies reacted with cell lines of humans, apes and Old and New World monkeys. These differences in the reactivity of the antibodies with the primate cell lines suggest that the antigenic structure of the IL-2R molecule changed during evolutionary divergence of the primates.     

Interleukin 1 stimulates proliferation of a nontransformed T lymphocyte line in the absence of a co-mitogen

Although interleukin (IL) 2-responsive T cell lines provide an opportunity to study the cellular effects of this lymphokine on homogeneous T lymphocyte populations, T cell clones which proliferate in response to IL-1 alone have not been available. We have isolated from cultures of the nontransformed murine T helper cell line, D10 . G4 . 1, a variant (MD10 cells) which proliferates (no lectin or antigen needed) in response to IL-1 alone. The MD10 cells are markedly sensitive to either murine or human recombinant IL-alpha (HrIL-1 alpha) with half-maximal responses observed at monokine concentrations as low as 0.4 X 10(-12) M or 0.8 U/ml, respectively. MD10 cells show the maximal IL-1 effect at 72 hr where the response exceeds the base line by 100-fold (approximately 3,000----300,000 cpm of [3H]thymidine). Whereas both HrIL-2 and purified murine B cell-stimulatory factor 1 (MpBSF-1) induce MD10 proliferation, the maximal response to either is much lower (HrIL-2: 50X baseline; MpBSF-1: less than 20X base line) than to IL-1. Conditioned media from control, concanavalin A-, or IL-1-treated MD10 cells fail to stimulate CTLL or HT-2 cell proliferation alone or inhibit CTLL mitogenesis in the presence of added HrIL-2. Furthermore, monoclonal antibodies to BSF-1 fail to inhibit IL-1-stimulated MD10 replication, and neither HT-2 nor CTLL cells proliferate despite direct cell-to-cell contact with IL-1-treated MD10 cells. When combined, IL-1 (10(-13), 10(-12) M) and IL-2 (10(-13) to 10(-10) M) act synergistically in their MD10 cell growth-promoting effects. MD10 proliferation induced by either IL-1 or IL-2 is relatively resistant to cyclosporine A, with the ID50 of cyclosporine for both IL-1- and IL-2-exposed MD10 cells (ID50 5000 ng/ml) exceeding that for concanavalin A-activated splenocytes (ID50 20 ng/ml) by 2 to 3 orders of magnitude. Finally, MD10 cells bear the L3T4 antigen, IL-2 receptors, and the same clonotypic antigen receptor as the parent clone as recognized by monoclonal antibody 3D3. These data suggest that, in respect to this particular T cell line, IL-1 is directly growth-promoting or, alternatively, induces the production of undetectable, intermediate growth factor(s) resistant to inhibition by cyclosporine A.     

Cross-reactive and specific monoclonal antibodies against cellobiohydrolases I and II and endoglucanases I and II of Trichoderma reesei

Splenocytes derived from mice inoculated with a commercial cellulase preparation or purified cellulases were fused with a stable myeloma cell line (SP2/0). Specific monoclonal antibodies to cellobiohydrolases I and II and endoglucanases I and II were established. In addition to specific monoclonal antibodies, we were also able to establish stable hybridoma cell lines which produced monoclonal antibodies that recognized similar epitopes possessed by two or more of the above cellulases. By obtaining monospecific antibodies for all four individual cellulases, the role and function of the individual cellulases can thus be studied in greater detail.     

Characterization of monoclonal antibodies against human leukocyte 5-lipoxygenase

Four mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody-producing cell lines (5LO-1, 5LO-2, 5LO-3, 5LO-4), produced against highly purified human leukocyte 5-lipoxygenase have been characterized. The monoclonal antibodies produced by these cell lines exhibited differential reactivity against 5-lipoxygenase as determined by ELISA and immunoprecipitation analyses. Monoclonal antibodies 5LO-2 and 5LO-3 inhibited the activity of recombinant human leukocyte 5-lipoxygenase in a dose-dependent manner. This inhibition was selective for 5-lipoxygenase activity since these monoclonal antibodies did not inhibit human leukocyte 15-lipoxygenase or porcine leukocyte 12-lipoxygenase.

Monoclonal antibodies that inhibit the enzyme activity of NAD(+)-dependent 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase.

Three hybridoma cell lines secreting antibodies against human placental NAD(+)-dependent 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-OH-PGDH) were produced. Purified IgG2b from these cell lines recognized a distinct band of Mr 28,000 on SDS/PAGE from the purified enzyme as well as a band of Mr 56,000 from the crude enzyme preparation. These three monoclonal antibodies inhibited 15-OH-PGDH activity to different degrees. Inhibition of the enzyme activity could be prevented by prior incubation of the enzyme with NAD+ but not with prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) or NADP+. Inhibition by monoclonal antibodies appears to be non-competitive with respect to NAD+ and PGE2. An increased concentration of antibodies alters the apparent Km for NAD+ but not for PGE2, further supporting the notion that the antibodies bind to the coenzyme-binding site. The availability of these monoclonal antibodies should be valuable for probing the structure of the active site.

Determination of membrane antigens by a covalent crosslinking method with monoclonal antibodies

Monoclonal antibodies that recognize cell surface proteins may serve as very useful tools for the study of the biological functions of membrane proteins. However, solubilization of the antigens with detergents may lead to major conformational changes of the protein, making their determination with monoclonal antibodies by immune blot or ordinary immunoprecipitation methods difficult. This is especially evident when the monoclonal antibodies recognize tertiary structures of the proteins in the membrane. We have generated two monoclonal antibodies which are specific for the cell surface antigens of multidrug-resistant human cell lines. However, the antigens of both monoclonal antibodies were difficult to detect by either immune blot or ordinary immunoprecipitation methods. We used a cleavable crosslinking reagent dithiobis(succinimidyl propionate) to covalently link the monoclonal antibody with its antigenic determinant in the membrane of intact cells. By this method, we were able to detect the antigens for these two monoclonal antibodies following solubilization, immunoprecipitation, and analysis by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. This method should have wide applicability in determination of membrane antigens recognized by monoclonal antibodies when immune blot or ordinary immunoprecipitation methods are not successful.     

Novel antibody reagents: Production and potential

Immunologists have had limited control over the compositions of monoclonal antibodies. They could choose the cell lines to be fused and screen hybridomas for the production of antibodies with an appropriate specificity. Recently, however, the degree of control has been extended by advances in cell fusion and genetic engineering. In particular, monoclonal antibodies with dual specificities, predetermined specificities or additional functional moieties can be produced.     

Monoclonal antibodies against chromosomal proteins of Drosophila melanogaster

Total nuclear protein from the embryonic D. melanogaster cell line Kc and crude hydroxyapatite fractions thereof were used for immunization of mice. From the spleen cells of these mice we established 755 permanent lymphoid cell lines using the hybridoma technique originally developed by Köhler and Milstein (1975). Radioimmunoassay showed 455 of these cell lines secreted antibodies which bound to component(s) contained in the antigen mixtures used for immunization. Screening of 311 cell lines using indirect immunofluorescence revealed 58 lines whose antibodies showed a highly selective staining pattern on polytene chromosomes from the salivary glands of D. melanogaster third instar larvae. Eight of these cell lines were cloned and further characterized. We were able to order the staining patterns into three distinct classes based on the staining behaviour of the monoclonal antibodies: staining of active regions, staining of phase dark bands or staining of most interbands. The molecular weight of those antigens against which the monoclonal antibodies were directed was determined in SDS polyacrylamide gels.     

Human-human hybridomas secreting antibodies specific to human lung carcinoma

Summary Human Namalwa cells were screened in serum-free medium and in 6-thioguanine, then fused with human lymphocytes from lymph nodes of lung adenocarcinoma cancer patients. Extensive testing using 14 lung cancer cell lines, 11 other cancer cell lines and 4 normal fibroblast lines identified monoclonal antibodies produced by 4 hybridoma clones that reacted specifically with lung adenocarcinoma cells. These monoclonal antibodies also reacted with lung adenocarcinoma tissues and not normal tissues or erythrocytes of any blood type. These hybridoma clones grew and stably secreted the antibodies in serum-free medium as well as in serum-containing medium. Editor's Statement Identification of monoclonal antibodies that recognize human lung adenocarcinoma cells with reasonable specificity represents a potentially important development that may prove useful in diagnosis and therapy of neoplastic disease. The selection procedures and methods for propagation of the human-human hybridomas described in this paper also represent some novel approaches that may be of general application. David W.

Monoclonal antibodies specific for glial fibrillary acidic (GFA) protein and for each of the neurofilament triplet polypeptides

Abstract. A panel of 10 mouse monoclonal antibodies specific for glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFA) has been isolated using porcine GFA as antigen. Although all antibodies recognize GFA purified from porcine spinal cord in the western blot technique, they can be subdivided into at least three groups on the basis of their reactivity against defined fragments of the molecule. Immunofluorescence staining patterns with the monoclonal antibodies performed on tissues and cell lines resemble those reported with conventional polyclonal antibodies directed against GFA. In particular astrocytes and Bergmann glia are strongly stained. In addition mouse monoclonal antibodies specific for either the 200 kd, or the 160 kd, or the 68 kd neurofilament triplet protein have been isolated and characterized. These antibodies are specific for neuronal cells and support conclusions made with similar antigen affinity-purified polyclonal antibodies. The combined set of monoclonal antibodies seems a valuable tool to characterize the different cell types of the nervous system.

Human granulocyte surface molecules identified by murine monoclonal antibodies

We have investigated the nature of the antigens recognized by four classes of mouse anti-human monoclonal antibodies that characteristically reacted with neutrophilic granulocytes and their precursor cells, but not with monocytes or other normal hemopoietic cells. The antigenic targets of the majority (9/12) of the independently isolated monoclonal antibodies were present on two surface glycoproteins (Mr 145,000 and 105,000) and glycolipids. This antigen(s) was also detected on granulocyte precursor cells, including the bone marrow granulocyte/monocyte progenitor cells (CFU-GM). The same antigen(s) detected by these monoclonal antibodies was also present in non-hemopoietic cell lines (colon carcinoma and neuroblastoma). Three other antigens, defined by monoclonal antibodies AHN-8, L12.2, and L13.1 and present on granulocytes and their mid-late precursor cells, could not be identified as proteins but were detected in a protein-free glycolipid extract of these cells. The diversity of the antigens was confirmed by cross-competition experiments and by the identification of their different patterns of reactivity with cell lines and bone marrow cells.     

Production and characterization of monoclonal strain-specific antibodies against prototype strains of Rickettsia tsutsugamushi

We have developed 18 hybridoma cell lines which secrete murine monoclonal strain-specific antibodies to prototype strains of Rickettsia tsutsugamushi: nine anti-Gilliam, four anti-Karp and five anti-Kato antibodies. All the monoclonal antibodies reacted only with their homologous strains in direct and indirect immunofluorescence (IF), or indirect immunoperoxidase (IP) test. By IF and IP tests with the monoclonal antibodies, 22 strains of R. tsutsugamushi, which were newly isolated from mites, field rodents and patients with Tsutsugamushi disease (scrub typhus) in Japan, were all clearly identified as either Gilliam or Karp type. Analysis by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting techniques revealed that the monoclonal antibodies recognized primarily the polypeptides of an apparent molecular weight of 54 to 56 kilodaltons of the homologous rickettsial surface. The monoclonal antibodies produced in the present study should enhance the serotyping and further analytical investigation of the rickettsial antigens since they recognize the strain- or type-specific polypeptides and do not show any cross-reaction among strains.     

Nematospiroides dubius: passive transfer of protective immunity to mice with monoclonal antibodies

Nine hybridoma cell lines secreting monoclonal antibodies specific for Nematospiroides dubius were produced by fusion of the mouse myeloma cell line NS-1 to either spleen cells or mesenteric lymph node cells from mice repeatedly infected with N. dubius. Seven of the antibodies were identified as IgM and two as IgG1. Each monoclonal antibody bound to polypeptide epitopes on both infective larvae (L3) and adult worms. However, five antibodies bound preferentially to L3 and three to adult worms. All nine antibodies reacted with high molecular weight protein antigens. Passive protective immunity in Balb/c mice was demonstrated with monoclonal antibodies Nd2 and Nd3 in ascites fluid which stunted both male and female worms and reduced parasite fecundity.     

Cell-protective monoclonal antibodies to bovine enterovirus-3 and partial or no activity against other serotypes.

Preparation of monoclonal antibodies to bovine virus diarrhea virus (BVDV) yielded some hybridoma cells that secreted monoclonal antibodies against the Madin-Darby bovine kidney cells. The anti-cellular monoclonal antibodies reacted with other bovine cells (bovine turbinate and testicle) but not with cell lines derived from other animal species. Subclones derived from one hybridoma partially blocked the infectivity of BVDV, possibly through the binding of the monoclonal antibodies with an epitope close to the receptor site of BVDV and not by way of steric hindrance. Unexpectedly, these same subclones completely blocked the infectivity of bovine enterovirus-3 (BEV-3) strain 240A and partially blocked the infectivity of BEV-2 and BEV-3 (ATCC strain) but not that of other serotypes. Other subclones derived from two other hybridomas, although cell membrane specific, did not have a protective activity against BEV or BVDV.     

Murine monoklonale Antikörper gegen Vibrio anguillarum vom Serotyp I und II

Murine monoclonal antibodies against Vibrio anguillarum serotype I und II Four stabil hybridoma cell lines against the Vibrio anguillarum strain 820/15/8 Kopenhagen—a typical serotype I strain—were raised. Three hybridoma cell lines producing monoclonal antibodies against the Vibrio anguillarum strain 134/82/1 Kiel (Serotype II) were established. The specifity of the antibodies was screened by ELISA. Monoclonal antibodies reacted with the characteristic determinant of the respective serotype only.     

Generation of stable cell clones expressing mixtures of human antibodies

Therapeutic monoclonal antibodies, a highly successful class of biological drugs, are conventionally manufactured in mammalian cell lines. A recent approach to increase the therapeutic effectiveness of monoclonal antibodies has been to combine two or more of them; however this increases the complexity of development and manufacture. To address this issue a method to efficiently express multiple monoclonal antibodies from a single cell has been developed and we describe here the generation of stable cell clones that express high levels of a human monoclonal antibody mixture. PER.C6® cells were transfected with a combination of plasmids containing genes encoding three different antibodies. Clones that express the three corresponding antibody specificities were identified, subcloned, and passaged in the absence of antibiotic selection pressure. At several time points, batch production runs were analyzed for stable growth and IgG production characteristics. The majority (11/12) of subclones analyzed expressed all three antibody specificities in constant ratios with total IgG productivity ranging between 15 and 20 pg/cell/day under suboptimal culture conditions after up to 67 population doublings. The growth and IgG production characteristics of the stable clones reported here resemble those of single monoclonal antibody cell lines from conventional clone generation programs. We conclude that the methodology described here is applicable to the generation of stable PER.C6® clones for industrial scale production of mixtures of antibodies. Biotechnol.
