A radioligand immunoassay for 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol [1,25(OH)2D3] receptors was developed utilizing a specific, high-affinity (Kd = 1.8×10(-11 M) monoclonal antibody (9A7 gamma) obtained from suspension cultures of rat spleen X mouse myeloma hybrid SP2/0-9A7. A standard curve was established, based on the competition between 1,25(OH)2[3H]D3-receptor (18 fmol/tube) and increasing concentrations of radioinert 1,25(OH)2D3-receptor (0-240 fmol/tube) for the binding site on 9A7 gamma. Samples, prepared in identical buffer, contained 0-100 fmol of receptor/tube. After an equilibrium incubation of 1,25(OH)2[3H]D3-receptor with either standard or sample (16 h at 4 degrees C), antibody-bound receptor was immunoprecipitated with rabbit anti-(rat immunoglobulin) prelinked to Staphylococcus aureus and quantified. The assay is statistically sensitive to 2 fmol of receptor/tube, with intra- and inter-assay variations of 7 and 12% respectively. Occupied, unoccupied and denatured receptor were observed to compete equally in the assay. This quantitative technique has been successfully applied to the characterization of receptors after fractionation by sedimentation analysis and DNA-cellulose chromatography. Finally, the measurement of total receptor by this assay, in conjunction with 1,25(OH)2D3 binding assays, has revealed that rachitic, normal and 1,25(OH)2D3-injected chicks have respectively 13, 20, and 56% of receptor in the occupied form. From these results we consider that this radioligand immunoassay will be a useful tool in further research focusing on quantifying 1,25(OH)2D3 receptors in tissue and cell extracts.

A cell line that secretes a monoclonal antibody to factor IX has been produced by fusing spleen cells from a mouse that had been hyper immunised to purified factor IX with mouse myeloma cells (line P3-NSI/I-Ag4-1). Hybrid cells were selected and a monoclonal cell line has been established in culture. This cell line secretes an IgGl(k) antibody (RFF-IX/1) with high affinity for a site related to the coagulant function of factor IX.Monoclonal antibody was partially purified from ascitic fluid from mice implanted with the RFF-IX/1 secreting cells by precipitation at 50% saturation with ammonium sulphate. This fraction has typically 630 NIH units/ml anti IX activity and 13.5 mg/ml protein. It was coupled to cyanogen bromide activated Sepharose 2B in the ratio of 9 mg. protein/1 ml gel. A column containing 10 ml of this gel removed all the assayable factor IX from the first 280 ml of normal ci.trated plasma that was passed over it. After that volume small amounts of factor IX could be detected in the effluent. Subsequently 10-20% of the factor IX activity adsorbed could be recovered by eluting the column with 3 M potassium iodide.Immuno-affinity depleted plasma could be used as substrate in a one-stage factor IX assay under routine laboratory conditions and was undistinguishable for that purpose from severe Christmas disease plasma.

Six murine monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA) and enterotoxin E (SEE) were prepared by fusion of myeloma cells with mouse spleen cells immunized with SEA and SEE. Of five MAbs to SEA tested, two MAbs were reactive with only SEA, whereas three were specific for both SEA and SEE. On the other hand, one MAb to SEE was found to be specific for only SEE. To study specificities of the combining sites of these MAbs, competitive binding assays with either SEA or SEE and horseradish peroxidase conjugated MAbs were performed using unconjugated MAbs as inhibitors. The results obtained in the assays suggest that different epitopes may be located on SEA and that some of them may be cross-reacting epitopes between SEA and SEE. Key words: enterotoxins, monoclonal antibodies, Staphylococcus aureus.

ABSTRACT We report the humanization and characterization of monoclonal antibody (MAb) T1-2 or tefibazumab, a monoclonal antibody that recognizes clumping factor A expressed on the surface of Staphylococcus aureus. We demonstrate that the binding kinetics of MAb T1-2 is indistinguishable compared to that of its murine parent. Furthermore, MAb T1-2 is shown to enhance the opsonophagocytic uptake of ClfA-coated latex beads, protect against an intravenous challenge in a prophylactic model of rabbit infective endocarditis, and enhance the efficacy of vancomycin therapy in a therapeutic model of established infective endocarditis.
