characteristics of 26 kda antigen of h. pylori by monoclonal antibody.

چکیده
alkylhydroperoxide reductase (ahpc, the 26 kda antigen) is one of the abundant antioxidant enzymes in helicobacter pylori and seems to have a good potential for use in development of immunoassays to detect h. pylori infection in clinical specimens. this study aimed to investigate some properties of this antigen by the produced monoclonal antibodies. five established hybridoma cell lines secreting monoclonal antibodies (mabs) against 26 kda antigen of h. pylori were cultivated and mabs were purified by affinity chromatography. subsequently, mabs were conjugated with biotin, and different combinations of capture and tracer antibodies used in sandwich elisa. immunoblotting of bacterial extracts were performed to estimate aggregation status of the antigen. release of antigen from the cultivated bacteria on solid media was examined by sandwich elisa, and also, existence of interference in fecal extract was investigated by immunoblotting and sandwich elisa. our findings showed that the mabs against 26 kda antigen of h. pylori could recognize three bands of nearly 25 kda, 50 kda, and 75 kda in immunoblotting. this study also indicated presence of more antigens in the culture medium around the bacteria than the bacterial extract itself. the results of sandwich elisa and immunoblotting on fecal extracts suggest the presence of interfering agents that prevent detection of antigen by antibody in elisa but not in immunoblotting. in this study the oligomerization of the 26 kda antigen, presence of interfering agents in stool matrix, and release of antigen to outside of bacteria, were demonstrated.

متن کاملProduction and Characterization of Monoclonal Antibodies Recognizing a Common 57-kDa Antigen of Leishmania Species
Background: The therapy of leishmania infection is difficult and each year 1.5 million new cases of cutaneous leishmaniasis and 500,000 new cases of visceral leishmaniasis are estimated, therefore, there is a need for an effective vaccine. Monoclonal antibody (mAb) is one of the suitable methods for isolation and purification of leishmania antigens. In this report, we produced several mAb aga...
متن کاملHeterologous Immunization, a Way out of the Problem of Monoclonal Antibody Production against Carcinoma Antigen 125
Background: Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are essential tools for many molecular im-munology investigations, epitope mapping and molecular modelling, clinical laboratory di-agnostic tests and immunotherapy. Humoral immune response of immunized animals largely depends on the nature of antigen and the immunization technique. Polysaccharides and heavily-glycosylated proteins are very elusive target...
متن کاملTelencephalon-specific antigen identified by monoclonal antibody.
Immunohistochemical screening of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) raised against fractions rich in the dendrodendritic synaptosomes of the rabbit olfactory bulb revealed that one of the mAbs (mAb 271A6) recognized a telencephalon-specific antigen or antigens. Thus, the stain with mAb 271A6 was observed throughout the gray matter of all regions of the neocortex, piriform cortex, hippocampus, striatu...
متن کاملAccuracy of a monoclonal antibody-based stool antigen test in the diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori infection.
BACKGROUND Recent availability of tests for Helicobacter pylori antigens in stool samples has provided potentially useful tools for epidemiological studies and clinical settings. The aim of this study was to evaluate a monoclonal antibody-based H. pylori antigen stool test in the primary diagnosis of H. pylori infection, and to study the test performance after patients were treated with lanzopr...
متن کاملIdentification and purification of a specific and immunogenic antigen of the laminated layer of the hydatid cyst and production of an antigen-specific monoclonal antibody.
Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is an infection caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus. This is widely distributed through Iran, where a variety of animals act as intermediate host. The immunogenic antigens (Ag) of different compartments of the hydatid cyst have been already determined. One of these compartments is the laminated layer (LL). We have extracted a protein with the MW of 2...
