ABSTRACT Sunflower downy mildew, caused by the fungus Plasmopara halstedii, is a potentially devastating disease. We produced two monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) (12C9 and 18E2) by immunizing mice with a partially purified extract of P. halstedii race 1. Both MAbs detected in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) all races ofP. halstedii present in France. No cross-reactions were observed with Plasmopara viticola or with other fungi commonly associated with sunflowers. Both MAbs recognized the same three fungal antigens with molecular masses of 68, 140, and 192 kDa. However, the epitopes on the fungal antigens were distinct and repetitive. Seed homogenates from infected plants were incubated in wells coated with MAb 18E2. This resulted in the trapping of P. halstedii antigens that were identified with biotinylated MAb 12C9. No reactions were seen with seed homogenates from healthy plants. Thus, our results suggest that these MAbs might be used to develop a sandwich ELISA detection system for P. halstedii in infected seeds.

ABSTRACT Hepcidin regulates the quantity of ferroportin (FPN) on cellular membrane. In our cell assay expressing ferroportin labeled with green fluorescence, FPN was internalized and degraded only after treatment with hepcidin-25, not hepcidin-22 or hepcidin-20, leading to accumulation of cellular iron. Thus we generated murine monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against hepcidin-25, and then characterized and validated their functions. Among them, several mAbs showed a neutralizing activity that may prevent ferroportin internalization induced by hepcidin-25. To measure hepcidin level in various fluids, mAbs specific for human and rat hepcidin-25 were selected. As for rat, a sandwich ELISA developed using clone rHN1 as capture antibody and biotinylated clone mHW1 as a detection reagent had high sensitivity, allowing for the detection of 1-100 ng/mL of hepcidin-25. Rat hepcidin-25 level in plasma was measured at an average concentration of 63.0 ng/mL in healthy condition, and at 218.2 ng/mL after stimulation of lipopolysaccharide.

Objective – obtaining and characterization of hybrid cell lines producing monoclonal antibodies against I and II types of shiga-like toxins.Materials and methods. Shiga-like toxins obtained in “48thCentral Research Institute” of Ministry of Defense of Russian Federation (Kirov), BALB/c mice, myeloma cells SP2/0-Ag14 were used in research. Immune splenocytes and SP2/0-Ag14 myeloma cells were fused according to G. Kohler and C. Milstein method in De St. Fazekas and D. Scheidegger modifcation using 50 % polyethylene glycol. Hybrid cell lines producing specifc monoclonal antibodies were cloned by limited dilutions. Hybridomas growth and producing properties were studied in vitro and in vivo. Specifc activity of immune sera, culture and ascitic fluids were studied by indirect ELISA. Monoclonal antibodies from ascitic fluids were precipitated by saturated ammonium sulfate, followed by ion exchange chromatographyResults and discussion. 8 hybridomas producing monoclonal antibodies against I and II types shiga-like toxins were obtained. Hybridomas are characterized by stable proliferation and antibody-producing activity during 10 passages in vitro and 3 passages in vivo (observation period). Obtained monoclonal antibodies can be used for ELISA detection of I and II types shiga-like toxins. Minimum detectable concentration of shiga-like toxins in sandwich ELISA is 1 ng/ml. The possibility of detecting shiga-like toxins without typical differentiation was shown when using in the enzyme immunoassay a polyreceptor mixture of monoclonal antibodies for sensitizing the plate and a polyspecifc mixture of immunoperoxidase conjugates.
