چکیده
UC 729-6, a 6-thioguanine-resistant human lymphoblastoid B-cell line, was fused with normal and malignant human lymphocytes. Parent UC 729-6 cells were diploid with a 21p+ marker chromosome, expressed surface and cytoplasmic IgM kappa, and doubled every 17 hr. The resulting human-human hybridomas were pseudotetraploid containing the 21p+ marker, doubled every 20-30 hr, and secreted 3-9 micrograms of human Ig per ml per 10(6) hybrid cells for greater than 9 months in continuous culture. Human Ig-secreting hybridomas were generated in 88% (14/16) of the fusions carried out and were cloned by limiting dilution (one cell per three wells) without the use of feeder layers. The mean fusion frequencies (number of wells, plated at 10(5) cells per well, showing hybrid growth per 10(6) lymphocytes fused) of UC 729-6 with normal lymphocytes ranged from 0.45 to 2.9 and with malignant B lymphocytes, from 3 to 10. Analysis of the human-human hybridomas derived from lymphocytes isolated from regional draining lymph nodes of cancer patients revealed several that secreted human monoclonal antibody that reacted by an enzyme immunoassay with some carcinoma cell lines but not with normal fibroblast cell lines. These data suggest that (i) UC 729-6 can be fused with human lymphocytes to generate stable human-human hybridomas, some of which secrete antibody reactive to human cell surface antigens, and (ii) UC 729-6 can be used to rescue Ig from nonsecretory malignant B cells and thereby allow for the production of anti-idiotype antibodies.

Immortalization of human lymphocytes from a tumor-involved lymph node.
Lymphocytes isolated from a regional draining lymph node of a patient with a carcinoma of the vulva were fused with human UC 729-6 cells. The generated human-human hybridomas were tetraploid with the 21p+ chromosomal marker of UC 729-6, expressed HLA derived from the patient's cells, and have been stable in culture for 2 yr. Supernatants from six immunoglobulin G (IgG)-secreting hybridomas were...

The production of murine monoclonal antibody (MAb) has not yet been reported in Iran. The present work describes for the first time the generation of several murine hybridoma clones secreting MAbs directed against human leukocyte surface antigens. The secreted antibodies by hybridoma clones have been screened on different lymphoid and non-lymphoid tissues. Results indicated that of seven h...

A 6-thioguanine-resistant, human lymphoblastoid B-cell line (GM1500 6TG A-11; IgG secreting) was mutagen-treated with low-level gamma-irradiation and selected for ouabain resistance. One line showing 10,000-fold higher drug resistance, designated KR-4, was fused with an Epstein-Barr virus-transformed, cloned, B-lymphocyte cell line (B6) producing antitetanus toxoid (TT) antibody (IgM), and the ...
