Protective activities in mice of monoclonal antibodies against pertussis toxin.
Pertussis toxin (PT) protein, which is the most important protective antigen of Bordetella pertussis, has a hexameric structure composed of five subunits, designated S1 through S5. Immunoprotective activity of 20 different mouse monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against pertussis toxin, 10 anti-S1, 1 anti-S2, 2 anti-S3, 4 anti-S23, and 3 anti-S4 antibodies, were investigated by aerosol and intracere...
متن کاملEffect of monoclonal antibody to pertussis toxin on toxin activity.
Two distinct monoclonal antibodies, one to pertussis toxin subunit S2, called 9G8, and another to subunits S2 and S3, called 11E6, were generated from the hybridomas of myeloma SP2/0 and spleen cells of BALB/c mice immunized mainly with the subunit S234 complex. Binding ability of 9G8 and 11E6 to the subunits was confirmed by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and immunoblotting analysis. Ge...
متن کاملMonoclonal Antibodies
SUMMARY Monoclonal Antibodies are identical antibodies and Can be generated in ultimated amounts by countinuos cultures of single antibody- secreting cells. These cell lines are produced by cell fusion of normal lymphocytes to cells of a myeloma tumor cell line, which confers on the antibody producing hybrid cell, immortality and the ability grow as atumor in animals. monoclonal antibodies c...
متن کاملMonoclonal Antibodies to T-2 Toxin
A murine monoclonal antibody (15H6) against the trichothecene mycotoxin T-2 was capable of neutralizing the in vitro protein synthesis inhibitory effect of T-2 toxin in human B lymphoblastoid cultures. It was further shown that 15H6 given to rats (250 mg/kg) 30 min before or 15 min after a lethal dose (1 mg/kg) of T-2 toxin conferred 100% survival. A lower dose of 15H6 (125 mg/kg), given 15 min...
متن کاملNeutralising Antibodies against Ricin Toxin
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have listed the potential bioweapon ricin as a Category B Agent. Ricin is a so-called A/B toxin produced by plants and is one of the deadliest molecules known. It is easy to prepare and no curative treatment is available. An immunotherapeutic approach could be of interest to attenuate or neutralise the effects of the toxin. We sought to characteris...
