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

The results showed that chimeric anti CD4 antibody and murine anti CD4 McAb could inhibit the proliferation induced by the above inducers and the inhibitory effects were related to the dosage of the antibodies.展开更多

The VH and VL genes were amplified by RT-PCR with family specific primer pairs. The PCR products were cloned into pGEM-T vectors, then tranfected into JM109. The VH and VL genes were snalyzed by automatic DNA sequencer. According to Kabat classification, the VH and VL genes belong to the mouse ig heavy subgroup Ⅱ(A) and x chain subgroupⅢ, respectively. The VH and VL genes were subcloned into pr1-Expr and Pk Expr respectively, then transfected into XL2-Blue. The VH- Pr1 and VL- pk were trans feeted by electroporation into mouse myeloma cell X63Ag8. 653. The transfectoma cells were selected by G418 screening, and then supernatant of cultured transfectoma were analyzed by ELISA and immunofluorescence techniques.We have acquired transfectoma cells secreting anti-CD4 chimeric antibodies.These chimeric antibodies are able to kill tumor cells specifically in vitro.展开更多
