Somatic-cell hybrids producing antibodies against CEA.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Monoclonal antibodies to carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) promise improved specificity for the measurement of this widely expressed human cancer antigen. A mouse monoclonal antibody binds weakly to CEA in perchloric acid extracts of tumour but strongly to CEA similarly isolated from serum, and its spectrum of cancer detection differs from conventional antisera.

Repertoire of antiviral antibodies expressed by somatic cell hybrids.
Fusion between P3 x 63 Ag8 mouse myeloma cells and spleen cells from BALB/c mice immunized with influenza type A or B or parainfluenza type 1 virus generated reproducibly antiviral antibody-producing somatic cell hybrids (hybridomas). Eleven hybridomas derived from spleen cells of mice immunized with influenza type A virus were directed against the viral hemagglutinin, one reacted with a host c...
متن کاملSomatic cell hybrids producing antibodies specific for the tumor antigen of simian virus 40.
We have produced somatic cell hybrids between mouse myeloma cells deficient in hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase IMP: pyrophosphate phosphoribosyltransferase; EC 2.4.2.8) and spleen cells derived from mice primed with either syngeneic or allogeneic cells transformed by simian virus 40. Such hybrids produced antibodies specific for simian virus 40 tumor (T) antigen. Only four of twelve inde...

METHODS in somatic cell hybridization, introduced by Kohler & Milstein (1975), have made it possible to produce monoclonal antibodies in tissue culture. Whilst the method has proved entirely successful for the production of antibodies against particulate antigens such as those on the cell surface (Trucco et al., 1978) and viruses (Koprowski et al., 1977), it has only recently been successfully ...
متن کاملCEA Plasmid as Therapeutic DNA Vaccination against Colorectal Cancer
Background: Human colorectal cancer cells overexpress carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). CEA is a glycoprotein which has shown to be a promising vaccine target for immunotherapy against colorectal cancer. Objective: To design a DNA vaccine harboring CEA antigen and evaluate its effect on inducing immunity against colorectal cancer cells in tumor bearing mice. <str...
متن کاملDevelopment of monoclonal antibodies against axenic amastigotes of Leishmania infantum strain in Iran: Implication for diagnosis of Kala-azar
Objective(s): Leishmaniasis is endemic in 88 countries. Amastigote forms of Leishmania are experts at exploiting host cell processes to establish infection. Monoclonal antibodies are key reagents used in the diagnosis of infectious and non-infectious diseases. The aim of this study was to produce monoclonal antibodies against axenic amastigotes of the Leishmania infantum strain in Iran.Material...
