In order to minimize the problem of immunogenicity of murine antibodies and to confer additional accessory immune functions, we have constructed mouse/human chimeric and humanized forms of the antibody. The chimeric antibody was constructed by cloning the murine variable regions and replacing the mouse constant regions with those from human Ig gamma 1,kappa. The humanized antibody was constructed using the human KAS variable region framework sequences as template. Engineering was guided by a three dimensional model of the murine variable region. The murine, chimeric and humanized forms of the antibody exhibited similar reactivity with the peptidic antigen in ELISA, and comparably neutralized the infectivity of HIV-1 in vitro. Taken together, our results show that the chimeric and humanized forms of G3-519 essentially retain the binding activity of the mouse parental antibody.

This chimeric cACT19 antibody was constructed by using two expression vectors, the heavy chain expression vector mpSV2neo-EP1-VHC gamma 1 and the light chain expression vector mpSV2gpt-EP1-VKCK. These vectors contain the following: (i) the neo or gpt gene as a selection marker, (ii) the murine immunoglobulin promoter and enhancer (EP1), (iii) the genomic DNA fragments of human immunoglobulin constant region (CK and C gamma 1) and (iv) the murine cDNA fragments of VH or VK region cloned from the murine ACT19 cDNA library. These two vector DNAs were sequentially transfected into the SP2/0Ag14 cell line. Transfectants were selected in media containing both G418 and mycophenolic acid. The chimeric cACT19 antibody was purified from the transfectant supernate by Protein A Sepharose chromatography. We confirmed that the chimeric cACT19 antibody was reactive for an epitope that differed from the sialosyl-Tn on the TAG72 antigen. This was achieved by using the TAG72-binding inhibition ELISA utilizing various monosaccharides and disialyllato-N-tetraose with the latter containing the NeuAc2-6 alpha Ga1NAc structure. The immunohistochemical double-staining technique provided further evidence of the difference between the epitope defined by the chimeric cACT19 antibody and the sialosyl-Tn epitope by illustrating complementary as well as noncomplementary expression of these two epitopes in different areas of colon carcinoma tissues. We also demonstrated that the chimeric cACT19 antibody displayed much more effective ADCC and CDC for the human OVAR3 tumor cells than the murine ACT19 antibody. Therefore, the mouse/human chimeric anti-colorectal carcinoma cACT19 antibody may prove to be useful in cancer immunotherapy in its own right, or especially when used in combination with the chimeric B72.3 antibody.</p>","PeriodicalId":77166,"journal":{"name":"Human antibodies and hybridomas","volume":"5 3-4","pages":"105-15"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18757274","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 31-kDa protein was identified by the amino acid sequence analysis of the CNBr-cleaved fragment as the 14-3-3 family of proteins, the members of which are known to play important physiological roles such as in the regulation of neurotransmitter levels and intracellular signal transduction. The purified 14-3-3 protein from bovine brain showed a comparable MAb-reacting activity to that of the 31-kDa protein from A549 cells in the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The significant reactivity of bovine 14-3-3 protein by MAb AE6F4, shown by the cross inhibition of antibody binding to the coated 31-kDa antigen in ELISA as well as by the inhibition of immunostaining with lung cancer tissues, consistently demonstrated that the antigen(s) recognized by the MAb was involved in the 14-3-3 protein family. It was found that the expression of the 14-3-3 protein was significantly enhanced in lung cancer tissues compared with the neighboring normal part of the lung as examined by the immunoblotting method.

The goal of our research is to take B-lymphocytes from patients possessing inhibitory antibodies to GPIIb-IIIa and develop technology permitting their production ex vivo. Starting point is the peripheral blood from two patients with Glanzmann's thrombasthenia, an inherited disorder in which platelets lack these complexes, and where high titre antibodies to GPIIb-IIIa have formed following contact with normal platelets after transfusion and/or pregnancy. We describe a strategy of in vitro stimulation to overcome the following constraints: (i) peripheral blood contains a low concentration of antigen-reactive specific B-cells, and (ii) the circulating B-cells are arrested in a phase in which additional stimuli are required to induce antigen-specific clonal activation. Optimal conditions involve the use of a combination of growth factors, polyclonal activators and soluble GPIIb-IIIa prior to the fusion of activated B-cells with either (a) the murine myeloma cell line X63 Ag 8,653 or (b) the heteromyeloma cell line SPM4-0.

With few exceptions these MAbs do not react with normal tissues. The AC6C3 MAb was developed by fusing regional lymph node lymphocytes from a patient with ovarian carcinoma with cells of the hybrid myeloma line SPAZ4, whereas the CR4E8 MAb was developed by fusing SPAZ4 cells with peripheral blood lymphocytes from a patient with cervical cancer, who was immunized intralymphatically with a viral oncolysate allogeneic tumor vaccine. The AC6C3 MAb immunoprecipitated from lysates of the ovarian tumor cell line SKOV3 a 32 kD polypeptide. The CR4E8 MAb reacted in Western blotting of lysates of the SW756 cervical carcinoma line with a 55 kD band. Cell surface immunofluorescence determinations using the fluorescence activated cell sorter revealed that both MAbs stain ovarian or cervix carcinoma tumor cell lines. We amplified the heavy chain transcripts of these two MAbs by conventional PCR, using mixed 5' end amplification primers, corresponding to the most conserved VH leader sequences and a C mu probe as a 3' end amplification primer. However, the mixed primer approach did not permit the amplification of the lambda-chain transcripts of these two human MAbs. This amplification was successfully carried out using the NPA-PCR that we have previously developed, specifically for the amplification of transcripts with unknown or variable 5' end, such as the T-cell receptors and the immunoglobulins. We have cloned and sequenced the amplified cDNAs. Sequence analysis showed that the V lambda segment of the AC6C3 MAb had 80.29% homology to the human germline Ig lambda-chain V lambda III.1, clone DPL2. The V lambda region of the CR4E8 MAb had 99.28% homology also to the human germline Ig lambda-chain, V lambda III.1, clone DPL23. The AC6C3 MAb lambda-chain employed a J segment with 98% homology to J3. The CR4E8 MAb light chain employed the J(H6-3C4) gene segment. Both MAbs utilized identical VH and JH gene segments and different DH segments. The VH regions of the AC6C3 MAb and of the CR4E8 MAb had, respectively, 98.6% and 98.98% homology to the human Ig germline heavy chain V region DP-7, a member of the VH-1 gene family.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)</p>","PeriodicalId":77166,"journal":{"name":"Human antibodies and hybridomas","volume":"5 3-4","pages":"131-42"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18757277","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}

For IgG secreting cell lines no antigenetic specificity has been detected. However, independently from the gestational age, monoclonal IgM antibodies binding to bacterial antigens (tetanus toxoid, lipid A, N. meningitidis antigens) were found. In particular, nearly 10% of the hybridomas obtained from fetal liver produced antibodies binding to lipid A (endotoxin). Among the IgM antibodies with anti-bacterial specificities approximately 30% were found to be polyspecific, i.e. these antibodies recognized auto-antigens of different molecular origin as well (ssDNA, keratin, myosin, actin).
