摘要
Trichosanthin(TCS) is a potent allergen in mice. It can reproducibly induce specific IgE responses in C57BL/6J mice without the help of adjuvant alum. TCS can bring out the IgE responses to ovabumin(OVA), while OVA itself could not induce IgE responses to it. How- ever, TCS only works when QVA immunization is given one day after TCS immunization. Either time lag in OVA immunization, or immunization of both antigens at the same time, or OVA immunization given first, all has no effect on the induction of IgE responses to OVA. Through analysis of the antibody specificity of hybridoma clones, it indicated that specific antibodies to TCS or OVA were secreted by independent B cell clones. The IgE antibodies showed no polyreactivity to different antigens.
