| Abstract: | The fusion of unimmunized (Balb/c × SJL)F1, mouse spleen cells in which a polyclonal response had been induced by bacterial lipopolysaccharide with a myeloma cell line
resulted in hybrid cell populations. The hybrid populations obtained elaborated antibody activity to human hemoglobin A, Keyhole
Limpet hemocyanin, the dinitrophenyl (DNP) hapten, and human erythrocytes, Thus, hybridization allowed preservation of the
normally transitory polyclonal response induced in mouse B cells by lipopolysaccharide. Furthermore, monospecific production
of anti-DNP antibody was successfully factored out of the polyspecific production of antibodies by cloning. The expansion
and subsequent injection of one of these clones into a (Balb/c × SJL)F1 mouse resulted in the formation of an antibody-producing tumor that was successfully passed to other (Balb/c × SJL)F1 recipients. Collection of the serum from tumor-bearing mice provided useful quantities of an anti-DNP antiserum without resort
to any program of immunization whatsoever. |
