Eighteen male BALB/c mice (6–8 weeks old) were randomized into 3 groups: dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) group, DCM-tolerance (Tol) group and control group. The mice in DCM group were immunized with the peptides derived from human ADP/ATP carrier protein for 6 months and mice in the control group were sham-immunized, while the mice in DCM-Tol group were immunized with ADP/ATP carrier protein and anti-CD4 McAb simultaneously. Serum autoantibody against ADP/ATP carrier and IgG subclasses were measured by ELISA, intracellular cytokines IFN-γ and IL-4 of Th cells were moni- tored with flow cytometry, and splenic T cell cytokines IFN-γ, IL-2, IL-4 and IL-6 were detected by using real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR. The results showed that the autoantibody against ADP/ATP carrier was found in all mice in DCM group, and the antibody level, serum IgG1 and IgG2a subclasses, cytokines in T cells and Th cells were all elevated in DCM group, as compared with those in control group (P〈0.01). On the other hand, in DCM-Tol group, the autoantibody level and contents of all the cytokines were significantly different from those in DCM group (P〈0.01), and were close to those in control group. And the levels of IgG1, IgG2a, IgG2b and IgG3 were influenced, to varying degrees, by anti-CD4 McAb as compared with those in DCM group. All these four types of IgG subclasses were substantially decreased in DCM-Tol group as compared with DCM group. It is concluded that the treatment with anti-CD4 McAb could prevent the activation of T cells, reverse the abnormal secretion of cytokines and the imbalance between Th1/Th2 cell subsets and abnormal production of autoantibody against ADP/ATP carrier, and eventually avoid myocardial injuries.展开更多

Three mAbs, 1B8, 5El and 5E2, were then further optimized. The result indicated that prepared anti-FMDV Asial mAbs had no cross-reactivity with Swine vesicular disease (SVD) and FMDV O, A and C type antigen. Their titers in abdomen liquor were 1:5×10^6, 1:2×10^6 and 1:5×10^6, respectively. 1B8 was found to be of IgG1 subtype, 5El and 5E2 belonged to IgG2b subtype. In this study, the prepared mAbs are specific for detecting FMDV type Asia1, and is potentially useful for pen-side diagnosis.展开更多

Methods: HepG2 cells were treated with monoclonal antibodies against stathmin 1, paclitaxel alone or their combination, with the untreated cells used as the control, 24, 48, 72, 96 h later, the cell growth condition was observed by invert microscope and inhabitation rate was studied by MTT assay; The apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry with Annexin V/PI. Results: The population decreased and shape, size changed after treating with different concentration of experimental groups. Monoclonal antibodies against stathmin 1 and paclitaxel used alone or in combination both inhibited the proliferation of HepG2 cells, the inhibition ratio of their combination was more higher (P 〈 0.05), and a synergistic effect of the two agents was noted in their combined action (P 〈 0.05). Combined treatment of the cells resulted in significantly higher apoptosis rate than that in the other groups (P 〈 0.05). Conclusion: Monoclonal antibodies against stathmin 1 and paclitaxel used alone or in combination both can inhibit proliferation of HepG2 cells and induce apoptosis. A synergistic effect is obsewed between the monoclonal antibodies against stathmin 1 and paclitaxel in their inhibition of HepG2 cell proliferation.展开更多

Here, we developed a novel monoclonal antibody (mAb), called P5, by immunizing mice with human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). Its anti-tumor effect is now being tested, in a clinical phase Ⅲ trial, in combinato- rial treatments with various chemical drugs. To confirm that P5 indeed binds to beta 1 integrin, cell lysates were immunoprecipitated with commercial anti-beta 1 integrin mAb (TS2/16) and immunoblotted against P5 to reveal a 140 kDa molecular weight band, as expected. Immunoprecipitation with P5 followed by LC/MS protein sequence analysis further verified P5 antigen to be beta 1 integrin. Cisplatin treatment upregulated cell surface expression of beta 1 integrin in A549 cells, while causing inhibition of cell growth. When cells were co-treated with different concentrations of P5 mAb, the cisplatin-mediated inhibitory effect was enhanced in a dose-dependent manner. Our findings show that a combinatorial treatment of P5 mAb and cisplatin in A549 cells resulted in a 30% increase in apoptosis, compared to baseline, and significantly more when compared to either the cisplatin or P5 alone group. The entire peptide sequences in CDR from variable region of Ig heavy and light chain gene for P5 mAb are also disclosed. Together, these results provide evidence of the beneficial effect of P5 mAb in combinatorial treatment of human lung adenocarcinoma.展开更多

Methods: C57BL/6 (H-2b) mouse cardiac grafts were transplanted into BALB/c(H- 2d) mice. This model was used to investigate the possibility of immunosuppressive induction with CD44 McAb, leukocyte function associated antigen (LFA-1) and intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM-1). Results: Treatment of the allograft recipients with CD44 McAb alone, or both LFA-1 and ICAM-1 or combination of these 3 McAb significantly prolonged the cardiac allografts survival as compared with PBS controls (P<0.01). The combination of anti-CD44 and ICAM-1 and LFA-1 McAb was shown to produce more significant prolongation of grafts survival than anti-CD44 McAb alone or both anti-ICAM- 1 and LFA-1 McAb (P < 0.01). Histological examination of the grafts treated with the McAb displayed greatly reduced mononuclear cell infiltration. The proliferation of spleen cells from recipient BALB/c with McAb treatment was significantly inhibited in response to the stimulators of C57BL/6 spleen cells, but increased upon the stimulation of C3H/He (H-2k) spleen cells, as demonstrated by mixed lymphocyte reaction. Similarly, the cytotoxic activity against donor H-2-compatible (H-2b) target cells, EL-4 cells, was significantly suppressed. The spleen cells from allografted recipient BALB/c mice with McAb treatment induced specific tolerance for C57BL/6 cardiac grafts in allografted recipients, whereas those from allografted BALB/c mice without McAb treatment induced acute rejection. Conclusion: These results indicate that antiadhesion therapy using a combination of McAb to adhesion molecules can induce specific immunosuppression of transplant rejection.展开更多

Methods:The activity of SDF-1 was inhibited by 10 μg/ml 12G5. After treatment with 12G5, the status of adhesion was observed, and the adhesion rates, apoptosis and cell cycles were detected after 24 h of treatment. Cell growth rates were measured by trypan blue exclusion. Cell growth curve was plotted, and the expression of PCNA and apoptosis related protein including PCNA, Bcl-2 and Fas were detected with immunohistochemical technique. Results:(1) There was middling degree expression of CXCR4 on HL-B0 membrane. From 0 h to 6 h, as the time of 12G5 incubation along, the expression of CXCR4 decreased gradually. (2) After treatment for 24 h, the adhesion rates in the experiment group and the control were (39.4±7.9)% and (51.4±5.9)%, respectively. (3)After treatment for 24 h, the percentage of HL-60 cells in G0/G1 phase were (55.21±4.9)%, and that in S phase and G2/M phase were (30.40±4.1)% and (14.39± 5.2)%, respectively, with the corresponding proportions being (44. 67±2.2)%, (45.30±3.7)%, and (10. 03±2.6)% in the control. (4) The percentage of apoptotic HL-60 cells was (8.95±1.7)% in the experiment group, compared to (3. 97±2. 4)% in the control. (5)The survival rates of HL-60 cells decreased markedly at 48 h to 96 h, and the proliferation slowed down at this time duration. (6)The expression of PCNA and Bcl-2 down-regulated significantly, but the Fas protein expression was up-regulated. Conclusion:12G5 could inhibit the capability of adhesion and proliferation of HL-60 cells and it can induce more cells to enter G0/G1 phase and promote apoptosis. It may be helpful by inhibiting the bioactivity of SDF-1 with 12G5 in the therapy of marrow residual disease.展开更多

Aβ1-42 self-assembles and is highly toxic to neurons. Thus, recognizing aggregated Aβ1-42 is very important for elucidation of Aβ1-42 structure and for the diagnosis of AD. In this study, the specificity of the 79-3 monoclonal antibody against soluble aggre- gate Aβ1-42 was measured by sandwich Enzyme-Linked Immuno Sorbent Assay (ELISA). Eight monoclonal antibodies against both soluble aggregates and amorphous aggregates were used as primary antibodies. Soluble aggregates and amorphous aggregates were used as antigen. As secondary antibody, HRP was labeled with the 79-3 monoclonal antibody. The reactivity of the 79-3 monoclonal antibody against soluble aggregates was confirmed in all combinations, but little reactivity against amorphous aggregates was found. Furthermore, we performed the above sandwich ELISA using the 37-11 antibody, which is reactive against large oval aggregates (LOA) that occur in micro aggregates, instead of the 79-3 antibody. The 77-3 antibody is 1 of the 8 monoclonal antibodies against soluble aggregates;amorphous aggregates also reacted with the 37-11 antibody. These results indicated that soluble aggregates are specifically recognized by a combination of different antibodies. The combined use of these antibodies can be applied to the diagnosis of AD and to defining the structure of the Aβ1-42.展开更多

Methods: Prokaryotic expression vector of pET28a (+)-hnRNP A2/B1 was constructed and bansformed into E.coli BL21. The recombinant protein induced by IPTG was purified and injected to rabbits for antibody preparation. Expression of hnRN P A2/B1 was examined in 45 tissues of NSCLC and 16 inflammatory pseudotumor tissues of lung by immunohistochemistry with the antibody. The commercial hnRNP A2/B1 monoclonal antibody was used as a controI.Results: (1) Polyclonal an-tibody against hnRNP A2/B1 with high title was obtained. (2) The positive staining in NSCLC tissues was 62.22%, which was substantially higher than that in normal tissues (40%, P = 0.035) or inflammatory pseudotumor tissues (31.25%, P=0.033). (3) Expression of hnRNP A2/B1 positively correlated with age and the history of smoking, whereas it negatively correlated with differentiation staging of tumors. (4) Follow-up study showed that the survival time of patients with positive staining was significantly shorter than that of patients without hnRNP A2/B1 expression (P=0.048). Conclusion: It is successful to make the recombinant protein and prepare the polyclonal antibody agonist human hnRNP A2/B1. It may be a valuable marker for the diagnosis and prognosis of NSCLC. Our results provide a basis for further study in clinical application.展开更多

文摘Aggregate amyloid beta protein1-42 (Aβ1-42) can typically be found in the early stage of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Aβ1-42 self-assembles and is highly toxic to neurons.

文摘BACKGROUND Islets of Langerhans beta cells diminish in autoimmune type 1 diabetes mellitus(T1DM).Teplizumab,a humanized anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody,may help T1DM.Its long-term implications on clinical T1DM development,safety,and efficacy are unknown.AIM To assess the effectiveness and safety of teplizumab as a therapeutic intervention for individuals with T1DM.METHODS A systematic search was conducted using four electronic databases(PubMed,Embase,Scopus,and Cochrane Library)to select publications published in peerreviewed journals written in English.The odds ratio(OR)and risk ratio(RR)were calculated,along with their 95%CI.We assessed heterogeneity using Cochrane Q and I2 statistics and the appropriate P value.RESULTS There were 8 randomized controlled trials(RCTs)in the current meta-analysis with a total of 1908 T1DM patients from diverse age cohorts,with 1361 patients receiving Teplizumab and 547 patients receiving a placebo.Teplizumab was found to have a substantial link with a decrease in insulin consumption,with an OR of 4.13(95%CI:1.72 to 9.90).Teplizumab is associated with an improved Cpeptide response(OR 2.49;95%CI:1.62 to 3.81)and a significant change in Glycated haemoglobin A1c(HbA1c)levels in people with type 1 diabetes[OR 1.75(95%CI:1.03 to 2.98)],and it has a RR of 0.71(95%CI:0.53 to 0.95).CONCLUSION In type 1 diabetics,teplizumab decreased insulin consumption,improved C-peptide response,and significantly changed HbA1c levels with negligible side effects.Teplizumab appears to improve glycaemic control and diabetes management with good safety and efficacy.

文摘Objective: In order to evaluate potential application for diagnosis and prognosis of non-small cell-lung cancer (NSCLC), as well as to determine its role in the pathogenesis of the disease, we prepared anti-human hnRNPA2/B1 potyclonal antibody. Methods: Prokaryotic expression vector of pET28a (+)-hnRNP A2/B1 was constructed and bansformed into E.coli BL21. The recombinant protein induced by IPTG was purified and injected to rabbits for antibody preparation. Expression of hnRN P A2/B1 was examined in 45 tissues of NSCLC and 16 inflammatory pseudotumor tissues of lung by immunohistochemistry with the antibody. The commercial hnRNP A2/B1 monoclonal antibody was used as a controI.Results: (1) Polyclonal an-tibody against hnRNP A2/B1 with high title was obtained. (2) The positive staining in NSCLC tissues was 62.22%, which was substantially higher than that in normal tissues (40%, P = 0.035) or inflammatory pseudotumor tissues (31.25%, P=0.033). (3) Expression of hnRNP A2/B1 positively correlated with age and the history of smoking, whereas it negatively correlated with differentiation staging of tumors. (4) Follow-up study showed that the survival time of patients with positive staining was significantly shorter than that of patients without hnRNP A2/B1 expression (P=0.048). Conclusion: It is successful to make the recombinant protein and prepare the polyclonal antibody agonist human hnRNP A2/B1. It may be a valuable marker for the diagnosis and prognosis of NSCLC. Our results provide a basis for further study in clinical application.
