Methods: BALB/c mice were immunized with extract of human pituitaries. The spleen cells of one immunized mouse were fused with mouse myeloma cells in polyethylene glycol and the positive clones were subcloned 3 times. Results: Two hybridoma cell lines which secrete anti-thyrotropin monoclonal antibodies with high affinity and specificity have been collected. The antibodies were of the IgG1 subclass and their maximum binding with thyrotropin was 60% and 45. 1% respectively. Using competitive binding assay,the antibodies were found to direct against different epitopes of human thyrotropin. Conclusion: The extract of human pituitaries could be used to produce monoclonal anti-pituitary hormone antibodies. The two anti-thyrotropin monoclonal antibodies produced in this study could be used in the establishment of a sensitive measurement of human thyrotropin.展开更多

Membrane proteins of pig adipocyte plasma membrane proteins were extracted with the help of sucrose density gradient centrifugation, and two kinds of proteins were obtained. The monoclonal antibody （designated 3B2 and 3F3） of IgG1 and IgG2b subclass against adipocyte membrane proteins were produced by immunization, with adipocyte membrane proteins as an antigen, and its titer was 1：105 detected by enzyme-linked immunoadsorbent assay （ELISA）. The cell strains were identified by analyzing the number of chromosomes, the heat stability, the acid and alkali, the types and subtypes of immnoglobulin, and its peculiarities and affinities. Through identification, the chromosome number of hybridoma cell strains was from 80 to 100 and the strains formed good hybridomas colonies. The strains＇ affinity constants were 4.63 × 10^9 and 3.75 × 10^9 （mol L^-1）-1, respectively. At the same time, the McAb secreted was stable to environmental factors, such as, temperature, acid, alkali and so on. The monoclonal antibodies had been obtained and their specificity to porcine adipocyte plasma membrane proteins had been identified.展开更多

Following J M Davis’s Works, semi-solid medium was usedfor initial cloning. Five of them were studied further. Their main chromosome- numbers range were 96 to105, all of them were IgG1 subclass. The affinities of these McAbs were estimated to be 1. 25 ×108 mol/L, 1. 12×108 mol/L, 2. 34×108 mol/L, 8. 55 × 107 mol/L, 1. 04×108 mol/L, respectively.Two groups of mice challenging with E Coli (107 organisms), one group treated with 2mg/kg anti-TNF monoclonal antibody, the other did not. There was a higher survival rate in treated group, the serumTNF level was significantly lower too, and the untreated mice had severe pathologic changes in vlscera.展开更多

To monitor the abuse of NT, our goal was to develop a commercial enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit. For this purpose, hybridomas were prepared by fusing NS0 mouse myeloma cells with splenocytes isolated from immunized BALB/c mouse. Noncompetitive and competitive indirect ELISA were used to screen positive cell clones. To optimize the indirect competitive ELISA (icELISA) method, various methanol concentrations in assay buffer were evaluated. Matrix effects in urine and spiking test were also investigated. Finally, five hybridoma cell lines named NT-1, NT-2, NT-3, NT-4 and NT-5 were screened out. The corresponding monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were of the IgG 1 isotype with a k light chain, and the antibody affinity of all mAbs were between 2.6×10 9 and 4.7×10 9 L/mol. The titer and IC 50 values of purified ascites were in the range of 0.64×10 5 2.56×10 5 and 0.55-1.0 ng/mL, respectively. Based on the NT-1 hybridoma, a heterologous icELISA method was developed for the quantitative detection of NT in cattle urine. The dynamic range was from 0.004 to 85.8 ng/mL, with a detection limit for the assay and IC 50 values of 0.002 and 0.55 ng/mL, respectively. Except for a high cross-reactivity (62%) to α-NT, negligible cross-reactivity to other compounds was observed. After optimization, 10% of methanol was used in the assay buffer, and a 20-fold dilution in cattle urine gave an inhibition curve almost the same as that in phosphate buffered saline. The correlation coefficient between the established icELISA and LC-MS/MS method was 0.9871. The results showed that the established heterologous icELISA method provides an excellent alternative for the detection of NT residues in food producing animals.展开更多

The monoclonal antibody was purified by means of ammonium sulfate precipitation and protein A-Sepharose C1-4B affinity chromatography. SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was used to evaluate the purity of the antibody. Evaluation of the sperm acrosomal status was determined by chlortetracycline (CTC) staining. It was found that monoclonal antibody 6B10 can inhibit the sperm acrosome reaction induced by progesterone. The corresponding antigen recognized by monoclonal antibody 6B10 was located on the plasma membrane of the sperm acrosome by indirect immunofluorescent microscopy and immunoelectronmicroscopy. Sperm protein was extracted by 1 % Triton X-100. The molecular weight of the antigen is 50 ku, detected by Western blot. The antigen is a key protein in the sperm acrosome reaction and may be the receptor of progesterone on the sperm acrosome. It may either be developed as a candidate contraceptive vaccine or be used as a tool in pest/rodent management.展开更多

Methods Hybridomas were prepared by fusing NS0 mouse myeloma cells with splenocytes isolated from immunized BALB/c mice. Noncompetitive and competitive indirect ELISA were employed to screen positive cell clones. A caprylic acid ammonium sulphate （CAAP） method was used to purify NT mAb, and the Batty saturation method was used to determine the affinity constant （Kaff）. Results Five hybridoma cell lines, named NT‐1, NT‐2, NT‐3, NT‐4, and NT‐5, were identified and their corresponding mAbs were of the IgG 1 isotype with a k light chain. The Kaffs of all mAbs were between 2.6 and 4.7×10 9 L/mol. The titers and IC 50 values of purified ascite fluids were in the range of （0.64–2.56）×10 5 and （0.55–1.0） ng/mL, respectively. Of all the cross‐reacting steroids, α ‐NT was the most reactive with the mAbs at 62% with NT‐1 mAb and 64% with NT‐2 mAb. Negligible cross‐reactivity （0.01%） with other steroids was observed. Conclusion The establishment of these hybridomas allows the potential development of a rapid test kit, and may provide an alternative method for the detection of NT residues in food producing animals.展开更多

Monoclonal antibodies (MAb)-based assays are highly sensitive and specific for AIV detection, and much practical and economic for test-in-field or onsite. Many such assays have been developed and are still in developing since the H5N1 highly pathogenic AI (HPAI) outbreaks occurred in South East Asia in 2003. A MAb-based dot-enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) has been developed in our lab during late 1990s and early 2000s. Meanwhile, AIV H7 and H5 subtype specific-MAbs have been successfully developed in our laboratory to enhance the Dot-ELISA and other MAb-based assays for AIV detection. Production and purification of the H7 and H5 MAbs were made to provide essential reagents for Dot-ELISA and other immunoassays, and the current development of a novel Biosensor technique for rapid detection of AIV from clinical and field specimens.展开更多
