AIM: To prepare anti-PAGE-4 monoclonal antibody and to analyze the expression of PAGE-4 in normal tissues and some tumors. METHODS: BALB/c mice were immunized with recombinant PAGE-4 protein and the hybridoma cell lines secreting monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against PAGE-4 were established using routine hybridoma technique. Western Blotting, ELISA and immunohistochemical staining were performed to identify the specificity and sensitivity of the PAGE-4 mAbs as well as the expression of PAGE-4 in normal tissues and some tumors. RESULTS: Four hybridoma cell lines secreting mAbs to PAGE-4 with high specificity and sensitivity were obtained. PAGE-4 was strongly expressed in spermatogonia and some of primary spermatocytes of testis, normal prostate and uterus in human reproductive tissues, and this molecule was also localized in normal pancreas. The expression of PAGE-4 molecule, a novel member of Cancer/Testis antigen family, was observed in such tumor tissues as those of prostate adenocarcinoma, uterus adenocarcinoma and clear cell renal adenocarcinoma. CONCLUSION: The mAbs against PAGE-4 were prepared which will facilitate further investigation of the distribution and function of PAGE-4 molecule.
