The antibody levels in 18 batches of the preparations of human immunoglobulin, Immunovenin and Immunovenin-Intact, for intravenous injection were determined in the enzyme immunoassay with the use of the mixture of P. aeruginosa lipopolysaccharide antigens of seven immunotypes. The average antibody titers in these preparations were identical. The preparations were found to have protective action against P. aeruginosa experimental infection in mice. 相似文献

A method is described for obtaining from plants partially purified preparations of mycoplasma-like organisms (MLO) which are suitable for use as immunogens for polyclonal or monoclonal antibody production, and as antigens for directly coating ELISA plates. Using this method a mouse monoclonal antibody to primula yellows MLO was prepared, and its characteristics compared with those of primula yellows polyclonal antibodies from rabbits and also against polyclonal antibodies made to similar preparations of European aster yellows MLO. No serological distinction was obtained between any of the homologous or heterologous combinations of antibody and MLO preparation using ELISA, fluorescence microscopy with FITC-labelled antibodies, or immunoprobes of western blots of partially purified MLO preparations. By contrast, there were no cross-reactions between the primula or aster yellows antibodies or MLO preparations and preparations of clover phyllody or tomato big bud MLOs or their respective polyclonal antibodies. The primula yellows MLO monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies, and also the European aster yellows MLO polyclonal antibodies, all appeared to recognize only a single major antigen of approximate M, = 22 400 daltons. Some possible explanations for the apparent specificity of the polyclinic antisera for a single antigen, and the relevance to MLO preparation procedures are discussed. 相似文献

Immunoaffinity chromatography involves binding of an antigen or antibody to a solid matrix, usually agarose, frequently using the cyanogen bromide method. These methods are laborious, rather expensive, and their use has been mostly restricted to immunopurifications on the microscale. We propose here the use of octadecyl silica (SiCl8) beads, a matrix for HPLC, as an alternative solid phase for protein immunopurification and immunoadsorption. Antibodies or antigens are strongly bound to SiCl8 by a simple incubation; radiolabeled antibodies can only be eluted from SiCl8 by detergent-containing solutions. After the remaining free binding sites have been saturated with bovine serum albumin, SiCl8 is incubated with the antigen- or antibody-containing crude preparations and is then poured into a minicolumn. The nonspecifically bound proteins are removed by washing; specific proteins are eluted by disruption of the antigen-antibody complexes with a low pH buffer. With this methodology, we have obtained high purity preparations of proteins in single steps, even when these proteins are present in trace amounts (picograms) in a complex mixture such as human serum. Similarly, specific antibodies against an intracellular parasite (Trypanosoma cruzi) were completely absorbed from human serum with SiCl8 coated with parasite antigens. 相似文献

We report the production, screening, and characterization of ten murine monoclonal antibodies directed at antigens that are expressed abnormally in human breast tumors. Immunoperoxidase staining of frozen and fixed tissues shows the antigens to be present at low levels on the luminal membrane of normal breast cells and at high levels in the cytoplasm and surface membrane of breast tumor cells. The ten antibodies appear to recognize six different epitopes on the basis of their quantitative differences in reactivity against four antigen preparations, as measured by ELISA. Immunoblots show that eight of the ten antibodies recognize a 300,000 MW molecule from breast tumor preparations; six of these antibodies also react with a second molecule from the same tumor preparations of 280,000 MW. Seven antibodies react with an antigen from milk fat globule membrane of 330,000 MW. It therefore appears that the two molecules from tumor tissue and the one molecule from normal tissue share common epitopes. Selected antibodies were tested for reactivity against 25 primary breast tumors and 14 pairs of primary and metastatic breast tumors. Three antibodies have broad reactivity and stain more than 80% of primary tumors; the three other antibodies identify subsets of those tumors. Results of staining pairs of primary and metastatic lesions show that metastases continue to express antigens of the primary lesion in a high percentage of cells. 相似文献

In this study, different intravenous immunoglobulin infusions (I.V. Ig.), were analyzed for the presence of either anti-HLA antibodies (Ab1) or anti-idiotypic antibodies (Ab2) directed against Ab1 anti-HLA. No evidence of either antibody types was found in tested I.V. Ig. preparations. Because of the absence of Ab1 anti-HLA, prophylactic and/or therapeutic use of I.V. Ig. appears safe in patients waiting for organ graft or in transplanted patients. The lack of Ab2 anti-Ab1 anti-HLA makes worthless the utilization of such preparations for neutralization of Ab1 present in highly sensitized dialysis patients or suppression of their production in transplanted patients in contrast with the previous reports suggesting this possibility. 相似文献

Intact and univalent antibodies were prepared against mechanically isolated mouse zonae pellucidae solubilized in a variety of ways (heat, low pH, SDS, urea and trypsin). The antisera bound avidly and specifically to solubilized iodinated zona antigens and the intact zona structure. When the concentrations of immunoreactive Fab material in the intact and univalent antibody preparations were equalized and compared for their ability to block the sperm-binding stage of fertilization, only the intact gamma-globulin preparations possessed antifertility activity. These results indicate that antibodies raised against intact solubilized zonae pellucidae block fertilization by cross-linking antigens on the outer zona surface, thereby indirectly masking the sperm receptor sites. The integrity of these surface components did not appear to be affected by solubilization procedures that disrupt non-covalent bonds (heating, low pH, SDS and urea) although they did appear to be adversely affected by trypsin treatment. None of the antisera tested contained antibodies directed against the sperm receptor site indicating that these critical components lack immunogenicity. 相似文献

Aspergillus is a fungal genus comprising several hundred species, many of which can damage the health of plants, animals and humans by direct infection and/or due to the production of toxic secondary metabolites known as mycotoxins. Aspergillus-specific antibodies have been generated against polypeptides, polysaccharides and secondary metabolites found in the cell wall or secretions, and these can be used to detect and monitor infections or to quantify mycotoxin contamination in food and feed. However, most Aspergillus-specific antibodies are generated against heterogeneous antigen preparations and the specific target remains unknown. Target identification is important because this can help to characterize fungal morphology, confirm host penetration by opportunistic pathogens, detect specific disease-related biomarkers, identify new candidate targets for antifungal drug design, and qualify antibodies for diagnostic and therapeutic applications. In this review, we discuss how antibodies are raised against heterogeneous Aspergillus antigen preparations and how they can be characterized, focusing on strategies to identify their specific antigens and epitopes. We also discuss the therapeutic, diagnostic and biotechnological applications of Aspergillus-specific antibodies. 相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies directed against subunits of a sea urchin flagellar dynein were used to test for the presence of cytoplasmic antigens in preparations of fertilized eggs and mitotic apparati . A 9-10 S complex composed of 330,000-, 134,000-, and 126,000-mol-wt subunits was isolated from outer arms of Strongylocentrotus purpuratus sperm flagella and used to characterize the antibodies. Seven monospecific antibodies to the 330,000 subunit and two against the 134,000 subunit of the 9-10 S complex were identified by binding to nitrocellulose blots of electrophoretograms resolving polypeptides from different dynein preparations. The antibodies were applied also to blots of polypeptides from fertilized sea urchin egg at the first metaphase and a cellular fraction of mitotic apparati . Three of the antibodies to the 330,000 subunit bound to a cytoplasmic polypeptide of approximately the same molecular weight and the two antibodies to the smaller subunits recognized a polypeptide of 124,000 apparent molecular weight. Both antigens appeared to be enriched in the fraction containing mitotic apparati . These results indicate that polypeptides similar to two subunits of the 9-10 S complex are present in eggs at metaphase, and they are apparently associated with the mitotic apparatus. 相似文献

Characteristics of antisera against periodate-resistant membrane antigens from Neisseria gonorrhoeae
S F R?e G Eggset O J Iversen J A Maeland 《Acta pathologica et microbiologica Scandinavica. Section B, Microbiology》1980,88(6):329-334
Crude outer membrane (OM) was prepared by extraction of bacteria of the Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains 8551. V, and VII, with an EDTA-containing buffer. The preparations contained the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and at least 10 proteins as shown by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Immunization of rabbits with untreated OM resulted in production of antibodies against several antigens, including LPS. Antisera raised against periodate-treated OM did not contain antibodies against LPS. These latter antisera agglutinated heat-treated (100 degrees C, 60 min) gonoccal cells by means of antibodies to one or more common agglutinogens and against a strain-specific agglutinogen that was susceptible to digestion with proteolytic enzymes. Both side agglutination and a plate agglutination test could be used to detect antibodies against these agglutinogens. 相似文献

The immune responses against human serum albumin (HSA) and bovine gamma globulin (BGG) were studied in rabbits after intravenous injections of various preparations of these antigens. Antigens were injected free in saline, coated on “empty” liposomes or both coated on liposomes, and entrapped in their inner compartments. The earlier established adjuvant effect of the liposomes was confirmed for both antigens. Although the amount of antigen entrapped in the liposomes was much higher than the amount coated on their outer surfaces, liposomes containing the antigen both in their inner compartments and on their outer surface showed no stronger adjuvant effect than “empty” liposomes coated with the antigen only. The results support the hypothesis that the adjuvant effect of liposomes is mediated by antigens exposed on the outer surfaces of the liposomes. Suggestions are made for the use of liposomes as a practical immunoadjuvant with definite advantages over many other adjuvants. 相似文献

An immunogold-silver staining technique for detection of cell-surface antigens in cell suspensions was developed. Leukocyte cell suspensions were first incubated with monoclonal antibodies directed against cell-surface antigens and then with colloidal gold-labeled goat anti-mouse antibodies. Cytocentrifuge preparations of the cell suspensions were immersed in a physical developer containing silver lactate and hydroquinone as reducing substance. The preparations were then counterstained and mounted. In light microscopy, cells reacting with the monoclonal antibodies showed dark granules on their surface membrane. An optimal morphology, as revealed by a May-Grünwald-Giemsa counterstain, permitted accurate cell identification. The labeling was influenced by the gold particle diameter and the concentration of the gold reagents, by the duration of incubation in the physical developer, and by the composition and temperature of this medium. The T-cell subsets enumerated with this method in the peripheral blood of normal adults were identical to those found with other methods. The sensitivity of the technique was comparable with that of immunofluorescence microscopy. This immunogold-silver staining procedure proved to be a reliable tool for detection of cell-surface antigens in light microscopy. 相似文献

The above mentioned monoclonal antibodies of idiotype IgG 3/Kappa against TMC 120 and TMC 107 strains of M. tuberculosis were prepared by fusion of mouse myeloma line FO cells with splenocytes BALB/c of mice immunized with complex antigens. These were prepared from the bacterial mass previously inactivated with gamma-rays radiation, and applied without mycobacterial adjuvant agent. Species specificity of both monoclonal antibodies was determined by ELISA testing and dot blot test. The potential use of the mentioned preparations consists in species identifying and taxonomy of mycobacteria, mycobacterial antigen purification and prompt TBC diagnosis (serodiagnosis, identifying of specific antigens in pathological materials. 相似文献

Antibodies against connective tissue elements of various bovine organs were isolated from the sera of rheumatic fever patients with the aid of immunosorbents (bovine connective tissue extract and erythrocyte stroma). The antibody preparations obtained were not identical and contained antibodies against different antigens of bovine connective tissue. The antibody preparations failed to react with human connective tissue components. 相似文献

Obtaining antibodies to individual components of Salmonella antigenic complex is highly important for investigations aimed at the study of the antigenic structure of bacteria, their serological identification and the development of diagnostic preparations. The method of obtaining antibodies by the oxidation of Salmonella antigens with sodium periodate and creating immunosorbents based on these antibodies with subsequent affinity chromatography has been developed. Monospecific antibodies thus obtained (O2, O4, O9) have been studied and used as monospecific preparations in the agglutination test, the immunofluorescence test and the immunosorbent assay. The development of methods for stabilizing these preparations, thus ensuring their wide practical use, may be of interest. 相似文献

The possibility of using antigenic complexes contained in the extracellular slime of P. aeruginosa clinical strains belonging to different serological groups as the components of a chemical vaccine has been revealed. Animal experiments have demonstrated a high immunogenicity of these preparations, as well as their low toxicity. The use of slime antigens stimulates the production of specific antibodies exerting a protective action against infection with homologous P. aeruginosa strains. 相似文献

Citrus tristeza virus (CTV) is distributed worldwide and causes the most economically important virus diseases of citrus. Enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and/or immunoprinting have become an indispensable tools for large‐scale diagnosis of CTV worldwide. Several CTV detection kits are commercially available, based on either polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies developed against purified virus preparations. We have developed polyclonal antibodies to recombinant p25 CTV coat proteins (rCP) and determined their effectiveness for both trapping and as the intermediate antibody in double‐antibody sandwich indirect (DASI) ELISA. The p25 coat protein gene of three CTV isolates was amplified by RT‐PCR and further cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli cells. The rCP was injected into rabbits and goats for antibody production. Western blotting assays with the rCP CTV‐specific antibodies reacted positively with the homologous and heterologous rCP of the three CTV isolates and with the corresponding native coat protein present in crude sap extracts of CTV‐infected citrus tissue, but not with extracts from healthy tissue. The rCP antibodies from goat and rabbit reacted as both plate trapping and intermediate antibodies in DASI‐ELISA, discriminating healthy and CTV‐infected citrus, with optical density (OD405) values in the range of 0.151–2.415 for CTV‐infected samples and less than 0.100 for healthy tissue. Commercially available anti‐CTV antibodies were used as a reference. Previous reports indicate that antibodies developed to recombinant antigens, including those of CTV, may not be functional for trapping the target antigens under non‐denaturing conditions. Our results showed the feasibility of CTV antibodies developed to the rCP for use as both trapping and intermediate antibodies in DASI‐ELISA, when the recombinant antigen was fractioned with polyacrylamide electrophoresis gel and further extensively dialysed against phosphate buffer saline prior to its use as immunogen. 相似文献

The protein moiety responsible for Na+-Ca2+ exchange activity was identified in synaptic plasma membranes (SPM). This was done by raising polyclonal antibodies in rabbits against each one of the detectable proteins present in the purified preparation containing the enriched specific transport activity. Two of the antibody preparations bound specifically to native SPM: antibodies which were raised against the 70,000-Da protein (the most prominent species consistently present in the purified preparation) and antibodies raised against a 33,000-Da protein (inconsistently present in variable amounts in the purified preparation). Both antibodies bound exclusively to a protein of 70,000 Da in native SPM. When, however, the purified 33,000- and 70,000-Da proteins were used as antigens, each one of the antibody preparations bound to both proteins. In addition, both antibody preparations immunoprecipitated Na+ gradient-dependent Ca2+ transport activity from detergent-solubilized SPM. This was obtained by incubation of solubilized SPM with a complex containing antibodies bound to Protein A-Sepharose beads, reconstitution of the material excluded from the beads, and determination of the residual transport activity. The decrease in Na+ gradient-dependent Ca2+ transport activity paralleled the amount of antibody bound to Protein A-Sepharose beads and could reach 82% as compared to the activity remaining in control experiments using preimmune sera. In comparison, ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport activity was unimpaired. These results indicate that the 70,000-Da protein in SPM contains the catalytic Na+-Ca2+ antiport activity. The presence of the 33,000-Da protein in some preparations and its properties may be explained by its being either a degradation product or a subunit of the 70,000-Da protein. 相似文献

Antibodies were prepared against chromatin, various chromosomal protein preparations and against cytoplasm from Drosophila larvae. These antibodies were used to study the distribution of antigens in chromatin and chromosomal protein preparations on double diffusion plates. Antisera from all of the mammals tested precipitated both chromatin and DNA on double diffusion plates run in water. This non-specific precipitation was removed by washing in 0.06M NaCL. 相似文献

Immunization against Taenia taeniaeformis in mice: studies on the characterization of antigens from oncospheres 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
M W Lightowlers G F Mitchell D D Bowtell R F Anders M D Rickard 《International journal for parasitology》1984,14(3):321-333
Mature eggs of Taenia taeniaeformis hatched readily in the presence of sodium hypochlorite and no loss in infectivity of oncospheres for mice was observed after hatching. Crude and sodium deoxycholate-solubilized antigens (termed TtO-DOC) prepared from such oncospheres stimulated high levels of protection against T. taeniaeformis infection in immunized mice similar to those described previously for oncospheres prepared by other methods. Mice immunized with TtO-DOC antigens that had been exposed to potassium metaperiodate remained significantly protected against infection. Exposure of TtO-DOC antigens to pronase and thermolysin, or to trypsin, significantly reduced the ability of these antigens to protect mice against infection. These data suggest that the antigens which immunize mice against infection include protein components. 125I-labelled TtO-DOC antigens were immunoprecipitated with sera from mice infected with T. taeniaeformis and the immunoprecipitates analysed by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Immunoprecipitation with sera from C3H/He mice infected for 28 days revealed a single major labelled protein antigen having a relative molecular mass (Mr) of 31,000. Sera from 5-month infected C3H/He mice immunoprecipitated at least thirteen labelled antigens, including one at Mr 31,000. Attempts to use SDS-PAGE separated proteins to immunize mice showed that oncosphere antigens exposed to the reducing conditions prior to SDS-PAGE lost their ability to protect mice against infection. It was concluded that SDS-PAGE was an unsatisfactory technique for the isolation of a host protective fraction of TtO-DOC antigens. TtO-DOC proteins were resolved by PAGE performed in the presence of sodium deoxycholate (DOC-PAGE) and mice were vaccinated with cut-outs from the gel. A fraction of the DOC-polyacrylamide gel was found to be effective in immunizing mice against infection. Thus, although the characteristics of the protein antigens in this DOC-PAGE fraction have yet to be determined, an important fractionation technique has been identified. It was shown that partial removal of DOC from oncosphere antigen preparations solubilized in 1% DOC was required for the antigen to stimulate protective immunity. These findings will facilitate further antigen characterization studies towards the development of a defined-antigen vaccine in murine cysticercosis. This is particularly so as attempts to raise anti-oncospheral monoclonal antibodies capable of passively transferring protection to mice by using crude antigen preparations to immunize donor mice have not been successful. 相似文献

Enzymes, either acid phosphatase or horseradish peroxidase, were conjugated to antibodies with bifunctional reagents. The conjugates, enzymatically and immunologically active, were employed in the immunohistochemical localization of tissue antigens utilizing the reaction product of the enzymatic reaction as the marker. Tissues reacted with acid phosphatase-labeled antibodies directed against basement membrane were stained for the enzyme with Gomori's method, and those reacted with peroxidase-labeled antibody were stained with Karnovsky's method. The reaction products of the enzymes localized in the basement membrane. Unlike the preparations of the fluorescent antibody technique, enzyme-labeled antibody preparations were permanent, could be observed with an ordinary microscope, and could be examined with the electron microscope. In the latter, specific localization of antibody occurred in the basement membrane and in the endoplasmic reticulum of cells known to synthesize basement membrane antigens. The method is sensitive because of the amplifying effect of the enzymatic activity. The ultrastructural preservation and localization were better with acid phosphatase-labeled antibody than with peroxidase-labeled antibody, but acid phosphatase conjugated antibody was unstable and difficult to prepare. Peroxidase-antibody conjugates were stable and could be stored for several months at 4°C, or indefiniely in a frozen state. 相似文献
