To investigate the diverse functions of the protein species, various types of transgenic mice or cell models overexpressing human hsp70 have been made. In these models a monoclonal antibody (MAb) specific for the human hsp70 is highly desirable to distinguish the human from the endogenous mouse hsp70. It proved difficult to make this species-specific MAb, because the hsp70 homologues are members of a family of highly conserved, abundant, and ubiquitous proteins expressed in organisms ranging from bacteria to humans. In the present study, we prepared four MAbs against human hsp70. Three, HD 5, HD 7 and HD 11, recognize human and mouse hsp70. One, though, HD 8, recognizes human hsp70, but not mouse hsp70. By Western blot analysis of hsp70 deletion mutants, the epitope of the HD 8 MAb was determined as the 585-616 amino acid region of the human hsp70, a region with relatively low homology to mouse hsp70.</p>","PeriodicalId":55044,"journal":{"name":"Hybridoma","volume":"19 5","pages":"369-74"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1089/02724570050198884","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21951314","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis of airway mucin has been hampered mostly by the lack of specific and efficient methods for the detection of mucin. Recent production of antibodies against airway mucin from several species and also the development of immunoassay procedures make it more efficient to study the airway mucin. However, the cross-species immunoreactivity of antibodies against airway mucin has not been clearly demonstrated and this prompted us to investigate the cross-species immunoreactivity of monoclonal antibodies against human (HM02), hamster (HTA), and rat airway mucin (RT03), which is three most widely used species in the study of mucin. All the monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) used in this study is IgM isotype and recognizes N-acetyl-galactosamine-linked carbohydrate core or backbone portion of airway mucin. In enzyme-linked immunoadsorbent assay (ELISA), Western blot, immunoprecipitation, and immunohistochemical staining experiments, it was demonstrated that human and hamster airway mucin showed strong cross-species immunoreactivity. However, rat airway mucin did not show any cross-species immunoreactivity against human and hamster airway mucin. Endotoxin-induced secretory cell metaplasia and hence the increase in mucin release from hamster airway mucin could be detected with antibodies against hamster and human airway mucin in vivo and in vitro. However, the same increase from rat airway could only be detected with antibody against rat airway mucin but not with antibodies against human and hamster airway mucin. In addition, the increase in mucin release from asthmatic patients could be detected with antibodies against human and hamster airway mucin but not with the antibody against rat airway mucin. The data from the present study implicates that the carbohydrate chain of human and hamster airway mucin, but not that of rat airway mucin, share common antigenic structure. In case of the interspecies use of the antibodies against airway mucin, it would be more desirable to clearly identify the cross-species immunoreactivity otherwise might lead to erroneous results.</p>","PeriodicalId":55044,"journal":{"name":"Hybridoma","volume":"19 5","pages":"397-405"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1089/02724570050198910","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21951317","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This corresponded to slow initial growth in the Maximizer, a pilot scale hollow fiber bioreactor system. Medium screening experiments with the microbioreactor demonstrated that the slow growth was due to dialysis of low molecular weight serum components (under about 10 kDa) from the cell side of the fibers to the basal medium on the noncell side of the fibers. Better growth can be achieved by adding serum to both sides of the fibers, but this is an expensive option. As an alternative, the microbioreactor was used to select for a population of cells that did not require serum on both sides of the fiber for optimal growth. From this population, a stable subclone was isolated using limiting dilution followed by growth assessment in microbioreactors. The subclone was cultured in the Maximizer under conditions identical to the parental cell line. The subclone reached confluency in about 9 days compared with about 16 days for the parental cell line. At confluency, the subclone produced antibody at twice the rate of the parental cell line.

No significant difference in the alpha2,6-ST expression was noted when age, sex, and tumor locations (colon, rectum) were included as parameters.

Notably, absence to moderate levels of tumor alpha2,6-ST expression was correlated with 100% survival in patients with stage I and II tumors compared with 64% survival in patients with strong tumor alpha2,6-ST expression (p < 0.01).
