Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were generated against a CD44 mRNA expressing (RT-PCR) macrophage/monocyte cell line (DH82) from a dog with malignant histiocytosis. The mAbs, that reacted with DH82 cells by FACS analysis were tested on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues. Exclusively the incubation of DH82 cell pellets with mAbs from clone 2D10 resulted in a cell membrane associated immunoreaction. Immunoelectron microscopy specified, that the antibody bound exclusively to the cell membrane and processes of DH82 cells. The mAb was tested on a variety of normal canine tissues, including lymphoid, urinary, alimentary, respiratory, and endocrine organs, nervous tissues, liver, pancreas, skin, and muscles. Furthermore, tumour and inflamed tissues were tested for immunoreaction with the mAb. Immunohistologically, the 2D10 mAb reacted with macrophages/monocytes, subsets of lymphocytes, epithelial cells, and central nervous system white matter. FACS analysis of canine peripheral blood leukocytes showed, that a high proportion of lymphocytes and granulocytes were positive with this mAb. Western blot analysis revealed, that the 2D10 mAb bound to a protein with a molecular weight of about 85 kDa. The results of FACS and Western blot analyses, RT-PCR, immunohistology and immunoelectron microscopy strongly suggest that the antigen detected by the 2D10 mAb is most likely the canine equivalent of human CD44, a cell bound hyaluronan binding proteoglycan.  相似文献

Based on an analysis of their reactivity with porcine peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL), only three of the 57 mAbs assigned to the T cell/activation marker group were grouped into cluster T9 along with the two wCD8 workshop standard mAbs 76-2-11 (CD8a) and 11/295/33 (CD8b). Their placement was verified through the use of two-color cytofluorometry which established that all three mAbs (STH101, #090; UCP1H12-2, #139; and PG164A, #051) bind exclusively to CD8+ cells. Moreover, like the CD8 standard mAbs, these three mAbs reacted with two proteins with a MW of 33 and 35 kDa from lymphocyte lysates and were, thus, given the wCD8 designation. Because the mAb STH101 inhibited the binding of mAb 76-2-11 but not of 11/295/33, it was given the wCD8a designation. The reactivity of the other two new mAbs in the T9 cluster with the various subsets of CD8+ lymphocytes were distinct from that of the other members in this cluster including the standards. Although the characteristic porcine CD8 staining pattern consisting of CD8low and CD8high cells was obtained with the mAb UCP1H12-2, a wider gap between the fluorescence intensity of the CD8low and CD8high lymphocytes was observed. In contrast, the mAb PG164A, not only exclusively reacted with CD4/CD8high lymphocytes, but it also failed to recognize CD4/CD8 double positive lymphocytes. It was concluded that this mAb is specific for a previously unrecognized CD8 epitope, and was, thus, given the wCD8c designation. A very similar reactivity pattern to that of PG164A was observed for two other mAbs (STH106, #094; and SwNL554.1, #009). Although these two mAbs were not originally positioned in the T cell subgroup because of their reactivity and their ability to inhibit the binding of PG164A, they were given the wCD8c designation. Overall, five new wCD8 mAbs were identified. Although the molecular basis for the differences in PBL recognition by these mAbs is not yet understood, they will be important in defining the role of CD8+ lymphocyte subsets in health and disease.  相似文献

The existence of two types of the immunoglobulin (Ig) light chain in pigs was documented>30 years ago and has been confirmed by the cloning of porcine light chain genes homologous to human and murine Ig kappa (Igkappa) and Ig lambda (Iglambda). However, immunochemical reagents defining these two light chain isotypes have not been characterized. Here, we show that rabbit antisera specific for human Igkappa and Iglambda and certain anti-porcine light chain monoclonal antibodies (mAb) are useful in distinguishing light chain isotypes by flow cytometry (FCM). Porcine B cell lines L23 and L35 stained positive only with anti-human Iglambda antiserum and were negative when tested using anti-human Igkappa antiserum. While mAbs K139.3E1, 1G6 and 27.7.1 also tested positive on these cell lines, mAb 27.2.1 did not. Therefore, FCM was used to examine the hypothesis that K139.3E1, 1G6 and 27.7.1 are Iglambda-specific whereas mAb 27.2.1 recognizes the Igkappa chain in pigs. Double staining of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) with pairs of anti-light chain mAbs and using cocktails of anti-light chain mAbs and anti-human polyclonal antiserum, confirmed this hypothesis with the exception that mAb K139.3E1 appears to recognize only a subset of Iglambda(+) B cells in most pigs. In summary, we identified two pan-specific anti-pig Iglambda mAbs, one anti-lambda mAb that recognizes a lambda-light chain subset and one anti-pig Igkappa mAb.  相似文献

This study was carried out to develop and characterize mouse monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against chicken CD25 (chCD25), the alpha chain of the interleukin-2 (IL-2) receptor. A recombinant chimeric chCD25/IgG4 fusion protein was expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells and isolated from spent cell culture medium by protein G affinity chromatography. Purified chCD25 protein was used to immunize mice, from which 54 stable hybridomas secreting chCD25 mAbs were produced. Two mAbs, chCD25-32 and chCD25-54, with high binding affinity for chCD25-expressing CHO cells were selected for further characterization. By flow cytometry, both mAbs detected cells in the spleen, bursa of Fabricius, intestinal duodenum, and immunostained established chicken T cell, B cell, and macrophage cell lines. Both mAbs reacted with a 55 kDa protein on Western blots of lysates from concanavalin A (Con A)-stimulated spleen mononuclear cells. Intraperitoneal injection of chickens with bacterial lipopolysaccharide increased the percentage of chCD25(+) spleen cells by approximately 4-fold compared with untreated animals. In vitro stimulation of spleen cells with Con A increased the percentage of chCD25(+) cells by up to 50-fold compared with cells treated with medium alone. Finally, the chCD25-32 mAb suppressed IL-2-driven spleen cell proliferation and reduced IL-2-induced nitric oxide production. These mAbs may be useful for future investigation of chicken regulatory T cells.  相似文献

Five monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against spring viraemia of carp (SVCV0504, isolated from common carp in China) were produced from mice immunized with purified virus preparations. The virion of SVCV contains five structural proteins, representing the nucleoprotein (N), phosphoprotein (P), matrix protein (M), glycoprotein (G) and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (L). Western blotting analysis revealed that three mAbs (1H5, 1E10, and 1H7) recognized specifically to a single protein of 47kDa (N), the mAb 3G4 reacted with two SVCV0504 proteins of 69kDa (G) and 47kDa (N), while the mAb 1A9 reacted with three SVCV0504 proteins of 69kDa (G), 50kDa (P), and 47kDa (N). By indirect ELISA, two mAbs (1H5 and 1H7) showed cross-reactivity with pike fry rhabdovirus (PFRV), but no cross-reactions with the Siniperca chuatsi rhabdovirus (SCRV), Scophthalmus maximus rhabdovirus (SMRV), Paralichthys olivaceus rhabdovirus (PoRV) were demonstrated with the five mAbs. Indirect immunofluorescence showed intense fluorescence in the cytoplasm of the SVCV0504-infected epithelioma papulosum cyprini (EPC) cells in areas corresponding to the location of granular structures. The sucrose gradient-purified SVCV0504 particles could be detected successfully by these mAbs using immunodot blotting. mAb 1A9 could completely neutralize 100 TCID(50) (50% tissue culture infective dose) of SVCV0504 at a dilution of 1:8. This is the first report of development of the neutralizing mAbs against SVCV. The mAb 1A9 was analyzed further and could be used to successfully detect viral antigens in the infected-EPC cell cultures or in cryosections from experimentally infected crucian carp (Carassius auratus) by immunohistochemistry assay. Furthermore, a flow cytometry procedure for the detection and quantification of cytoplasmic SVCV0504 in cell cultures was developed with mAb 1A9. At 28h after inoculation with the virus (0.01PFU/cell), 10.12% of infected cells could be distinguished from the uninfected cells. These mAbs will be useful in diagnostic test development and pathogenesis studies for fish rhabdovirus.  相似文献

We produced monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against bovine herpesvirus type 1 (BHV-1), Los Angeles strain, and then evaluated them as potential candidates for preparing diagnostic reagents. Of the 318 cell lines expressing antibodies to the virus, 60% (192) secreted IgG and 40% (126) secreted IgM. Twenty-six mAbs were selected based on enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and virus neutralization (VN) titers and characterized by immunoprecipitation, immunofluorescence and immunoblots. The selected mAbs were assigned to one of four groups based on their immunoprecipitation patterns. Group A (4 mAbs) precipitated a complex of three glycoproteins with molecular weight (MW) 130 kDa, 72 kDa and 55 kDa, which presumably represented gI of BHV-1. Monoclonal antibodies of this group were highly reactive in ELISA but had low VN titers. Group B (4 mAbs) precipitated a glycoprotein with MW of 71 kDa (gIV). This group of mAbs had high VN titers. Group C (16 mAbs) precipitated a 97 kDa glycoprotein (gIII). Monoclonal antibodies of this group had high ELISA but low VN titers. Group D (2 mAbs) precipitated a double band of non-glycosylated proteins with MW of 37/32 kDa; these proteins could not be assigned to any of the antigens of BHV-1 previously described. ELISA and VN titers of this group of mAbs were low. To test the antigenic variability of the antigenic determinants which were recognized by these 4 groups of mAbs, we adapted Madin Darby bovine kidney cell-propagated BHV-1 Los Angeles strain to Crandell's feline kidney cell line. After the tenth passage in feline kidney cells, the epitopes on the 37/32 kDa peptide recognized by the mAbs group D were no longer detectable. Additional changes were noted in the electrophoretic mobility of the 130 kDa and 71 kDa glycoproteins (gI) identified by mAb of group A shifted downward. The 71 kDa glycoprotein (gIV) reactive with mAb group B and the 97 kDa (gIII) reactive with mAb group C remained stable. Since clone No. 191 of group B mAb was potent in ELISA, VN, immunoblots and immunofluorescence, and recognized an epitope which did not change under selective pressure, we feel that the mAb produced by this clone are a good candidate for the production of diagnostic reagents.  相似文献

In this study we describe the generation of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), which recognize different epitopes of the equine IgE constant heavy chain. Equi-murine recombinant IgE (rIgE), composed of the murine V(H)186.2 heavy chain variable region, linked to the equine IgE constant heavy chain and expressed together with the murine lambda(1) chain in J558L cells was used to immunize BALB/C mice. A total of 17 different mAbs were obtained, which recognized the rIgE heavy chain constant region. None of the mAbs reacted with monoclonal equine isotypes IgM, IgG1 (IgGa), IgG3 (IgG(T)), IgG4 (IgGb) or isolated equine light chains, IgGc and IgA from horse serum, or the native mAb B1-8delta, expressing the same heavy chain variable regions and light chains. One of the mAbs (alphaIgE-132) recognized the recombinant equine IgE, but did not recognize any protein in equine serum, i.e. native IgE. A total of 16 mAbs detected a serum protein of approximately 210,000Da on Western blots, corresponding to the expected MW of native IgE. In addition, one of the mAbs (alphaIgE-176) detected a protein of 76,000Da under reducing conditions, most likely the equine IgE heavy chain. According to binding inhibition studies, the equine IgE specific mAbs recognize at least two different epitopes of the equine IgE. In an ELISA using two anti-IgE mAbs which recognized different epitopes, no significant differences in the concentration of total serum IgE could be detected between adult Icelandic horses with IgE-mediated type I allergy (summer eczema) and healthy control animals. In Icelandic horse foals, no serum IgE could be measured 6 months post partum. All anti-IgE mAbs recognized a small population (1.3+/-0.5%) of leukocytes from adult Icelandic horses by surface immunofluorescence, but no cells could be detected in foal blood. The stained leukocytes from adult horses could be enriched by magnetic cell sorting and contained 32% basophils, 53% monocytes and/or large lymphocytes, 13% small lymphocytes and 2% eosinophils.  相似文献

The distribution of B cells in the lymphoid organs of the goat was studied using a panel of 13 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) developed against different markers for bovine B cells. Samples of mesenteric lymph nodes, jejunal and ileal Peyer's patches, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, colon, caecum and rectum were taken from four 7-month-old male Murciano-granadina goats using the avidin-biotin-peroxidase (ABC) method on frozen sections as described by Hsu et al. (1981). The mAbs against immunoglobulins (Ig) recognized a large number of cells, particularly in the light zones of the germinative centres of the lymphoid follicles, regardless of the isotype against which they were directed. However, the greatest numbers of B cells in the germinative centres and outer coronas of the lymphoid follicles of the lymph node, spleen and Peyer's patches were recognized by mAbs against the L lambda chain of Ig and against IgM. This was also the case in other locations where B cells were abundant, such as the medulla of the lymph node and the dome of the Peyer's patches. These mAbs recognized not only B lymphocytes but also plasma cells, showing an intracytoplasmatic reaction (numerous in the spleen red pulp and the intestinal lamina propria when mAbs were used against the L lambda chain of the Ig, scarce in the intestinal lamina propria when used against IgM and scarce in spleen red pulp and numerous in the intestinal lamina propria when mAbs against IgA were used). The mAbs BAQ44 A, GC65 A and GB25 A are of interest because, besides marking cells in the B areas where lymphocytes show surface Ig, they give a positive reaction in areas where there are Ig-cells (the dark zone of the germinative centre) and do not immunostain plasma cells. Thus, these mAbs recognize a surface marker which is not an Ig.  相似文献

The present study was undertaken to produce monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against immunoglobulin (Ig) purified from black rockfish (Sebastes schlegeli Higendorf) serum using protein A, mannan binding protein, and goat IgG affinity columns. These three different ligands were found to possess high affinity for black rockfish serum Ig. All of the Igs purified eluted at only 0.46 M NaCl concentration in anion exchange column chromatography and consisted of two bands at 70 kDa and 25 kDa in SDS-PAGE; they also had similar antigenicity for MAbs to Ig heavy chain in immunoblot assays. Therefore, black rockfish Ig is believed to exist as a single isotype within serum. The MAbs produced against Ig heavy chain reacted specifically with spots distributed over the pI range from 4.8 to 5.6 with a molecular weight of 70 kDa on two dimensional gel electrophoresis immunoblot profiles.  相似文献

A total of 38 hybridomas producing monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) was established by immunizing BALB/c mice with extracts of the golden hamster testis. Six mAbs stained the acrosome of developing spermatids by immunofluorescence. Two mAbs (1A11 and 4D8) reacted with spermatid components other than acrosome. The mAbs 1C9 and 4D3 recognized a 103 kilodalton (kDa) protein on immunoblots, and were reactive to spermatocytes and early spermatids, but not to late spermatids and spermatozoa. This finding suggests that the protein functions for meiosis or early spermiogenesis. Four mAbs (3G2, 2E5, 2G3, and 3F10) stained all stages of spermatogenic cells. The remaining 24 mAbs showed a positive reaction to the basement membrane of the seminiferous tubule. Two of them, 3D6 and 3E5, recognized approximately 150 kDa major proteins, indicating that the antigen is an extracellular matrix.  相似文献

To provide a fast and easy method to detect antibodies against fowlpox virus (FWPV) particularly in high numbers of chicken sera we established a monoclonal blocking enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). We chose two different monoclonal antibodies (mAb), anti-FWPV 3D9/2B3 and anti-FWPV 8F3/2E11, which are both directed against the 39-kDa protein of FWPV strain HP-1. The blocking ELISA depends on the blocking of mAb binding to solid-phase antigen in the presence of positive serum. For an epidemiological study a total of 184 serum samples from Gambian chicken flocks were analysed against each of the mAbs. Four of the sera were shown to contain FWPV antibodies. These four sera showed a positive cut-off value of more than 50% inhibition exclusively in the test against the mAb anti-FWPV 8F3/2E11. This phenomenon can be explained by the binding of the mAbs to distinct epitopes on the same protein.  相似文献

There are concerted efforts toward development of tick vaccines to replace current chemical control strategies that have serious limitations [Parasitologia 32 (1990) 145; Infectious Disease Clinics of North America (1999) 209-226]. In this study, monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) specific to Haemaphysalis longicornis midgut proteins were produced and characterized. Eight antibody-secreting hybridomas were cloned and the mAbs typed as IgG1, IgG2a and IgG2b. On immunoblots, all mAbs reacted with a midgut protein band of about 76 kDa. All mAbs uniformly immunogold-stained the surface or epithelial layers of H. longicornis midgut and endosomes. Adult ticks (50%) that fed on an ascitic mouse producing the IgGs developed a red coloration and did not oviposit. As such, the 76 kDa protein that reacted with the mAbs could, therefore, be a potential candidate for tick vaccine development.  相似文献

Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) strains have been classified into two major genotypes (PCV2a and PCV2b) and 8 genetic clusters: PCV2b-1A to PCV2b-1C and PCV2a-2A to PCV2a-2E. To date, no studies have been performed to antigenically subtype PCV2 strains enclosing eight PCV2 clusters. The present study aimed to antigenically subtype PCV2 and perform epitopes' competition analysis using monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). Fourteen PCV2 strains representative for eight clusters were tested with 20 mAbs (fifteen of them were generated against PCV2a strain Stoon-1010 and 5 of them against PCV2b strain 1147) in immunoperoxidase monolayer assays. Four mAbs reacted to all 14 PCV2 strains and one mAb reacted with all strains except for a PCV2a-2C strain. One mAb reacted with all PCV2a strains, except for a PCV2a-2C strain and one mAb reacted with all PCV2b strains, except for a PCV2b-1C strain. Nine mAbs reacted with the strains of PCV2b-1A/1B, PCV2a-2A and PCV2a-2E. Three mAbs only reacted with the strains of PCV2a-2A and PCV2a-2E. One mAb reacted specifically with the strains of PCV2b-1A/1B. This suggests that discrete antigenic differences exist between different PCV2 genetic clusters and that these clusters can be discriminated by the use of a panel of universal and cluster-specific mAbs. Six mAbs were selected for cross-competition analysis by a competitive ELISA using PCV2 strain Stoon-1010. Six overlapping epitopes were identified on the PCV2 capsid protein. The universal mAbs recognized larger epitopes than the cluster-specific mAbs. These findings are helpful in the development of diagnostic tests and new generation vaccines against PCV2.  相似文献

Four monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) (9.49, 24.27, 46.71 and 179.57) were produced against Fasciola hepatica excretory-secretory products. Isotype analysis revelead the antibodies to be IgM, IgG3, IgG1, and IgM. In immunoblot assays, the mAbs recognized different antigenic polypeptides migrating between 29 and 180 kDa. Specificity of the mAbs was evaluated by ELISA against antigens of Fascioloides magna, Anoplocephala magna, Stichorchis subtriquetrus, Haemonchus contortus, sheep liver extract (SLE), bovine liver extract (BLE), bovine serum albumin (BSA), bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV), and Madin-Darby bovine kidney (MDBK) cells. Monoclonals 9.49 and 24.27 were specific, and reacted only with Fasciola hepatica antigens. However, mAb 46.71 cross-reacted with antigens of Fascioloides magna, A. magna, Stichorchis subtriquetrus, and H. contortus but not with SLE, BLE, BSA, BVDV or MDBK cells. Monoclonal antibody 179.57 cross-reacted with Fascioloides magna, A. magna, S. subtriquetrus, H. contortus, SLE, and BLE, but not with BSA, BVDV, or MDBK cells.  相似文献

In order to measure different lymphocyte populations in buffalo (Syncerus caffer) and waterbuck (Kobus defassa), we analysed the monoclonal antibodies from the 1st International Workshop on Leukocyte Antigens in Cattle, Sheep and Goats for suitable cross-reactive reagents. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells from three buffalo and three waterbuck were tested with the whole panel of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) together with some additional antibodies against MHC and Ig. In some clusters almost all antibodies cross-reacted (CD2, CD8), in others almost none cross-reacted (CD4, CD5) and in cluster CD6, mAbs only reacted with buffalo but not waterbuck. Double staining experiments were performed on buffalo PBM with the cross-reacting antibodies, to confirm that they detected similar cell populations as in bovine PBM. This was shown with reagents against CD2, CD4, CD6, CD8, CD11, WC1, WC3 and Ig. The molecular weights of the buffalo antigens correlated well with those of the homologous cattle antigens. In the CD5 cluster, only one mAb reacted with the two wild species, and defined an unusual CD2+ CD5- cell population in buffalo. Also mAbs cross-reacting with buffalo MHC class II detected unusual expression on resting T cells. From the results presented, it is clear that the workshop panel contains mAbs against the most important T and B cell antigens of buffalo and probably waterbuck, which will allow us to compare functional lymphocyte populations in cattle and wild ruminants.  相似文献

Three hundred and seventy-nine monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against various human CD molecules supplied to the HLDA8 animal homologues section (including four isotype controls) were analysed for cross-reactivity with equine leukocytes. First, flow cytometric identification of positively reacting mAbs was performed in one laboratory. Thereafter, a second round of flow cytometric evaluation was performed, involving three laboratories participating in the study. The first test-round indicated 17 mAbs as potentially positive. After the second round of flow cytometric analysis, 14 mAbs remained (directed against CD2, CD11a, CD18, CD44, CD45, CD49d, CD91, CD163 and CD172) where cross-reactivity was anticipated based on similarities between the human and equine staining pattern. Additionally, there was 1 mAb with weak likely positive reactivity, 12 mAbs with positive staining, which likely do not reflect valuable data, 5 mAbs with clear alternate expression pattern from that expected from humans, 5 mAbs with a questionable staining pattern itself, i.e. that was variable between the three labs, 32 mAbs with weak-positive expression and alternate staining pattern, and 279 negative mAbs (including the four isotype controls) were detected. In 31 cases, more appropriate target cells, such as thymocytes or stem cells, were not available for the screening. The results underline the value of this "cross-reactivity" approach for equine immunology. However, as only a few mAbs against leukocyte surface antigens reacted positively (approximately 4% of the mAbs submitted), the analysis of further anti-human mAbs and directed efforts to develop species-specific anti-CD mAb are still required.  相似文献

Four monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) (M1357, M1360, M1823 and M1825) which reacted with Campylobacter fetus lipopolysaccharide (LPS) core region epitopes were produced and characterized. Reactivity of these mAbs with C. fetus core LPS epitopes was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) with whole cell proteinase K digests and phenol-water extracted LPS, and by immunoblotting with proteinase K digests. The specificities of the four mAbs were evaluated using an indirect ELISA. One of the mAbs reacted with 42 and three of the mAbs reacted with 41 of the 42 C. fetus strains examined. No reaction was observed between the four mAbs and 32 non-C. fetus bacteria tested, with the exception of one mAb with one organism. The four mAbs reacted with serotype A and B strains indicating the presence of shared epitopes in C. fetus LPS core oligosaccharides. The specificities of three mAbs previously produced to C. fetus LPS O-antigens (M1177, M1183 and M1194) were also evaluated and no reaction was observed with these mAbs and the 32 non-C. fetus bacteria tested. Strong immunofluorescence reactions were observed with the anti-O chain mAbs and selected C. fetus strains of the homologous serotype. These anti-LPS core oligosaccharide and anti-LPS O chain mAbs are highly specific for C. fetus and are potentially useful as immunodiagnostic reagents for detection, identification and characterization of C. fetus.  相似文献

A 215 kDa molecule termed T19 marks CD4-CD8- T cells in sheep and cattle. In this report, we analysed the T19 or "null cell" panel of mAbs against gamma delta T cells of sheep, using a mAb specific for the gamma delta TCR. By two-colour immunofluorescence, all of the mAbs in the T19 panel reacted with gamma delta T cells or subsets thereof, although staining intensities and percentages of cells stained by the different mAbs indicated considerable heterogeneity for the T19 molecule. This probably results from differential expression of certain epitopes on T19. The reactivity of most of the mAbs for the 215 kDa T19 molecule was also confirmed by immunoprecipitation and SDS-PAGE.  相似文献

The myeloid panel of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) submitted to the Third Swine CD Workshop were analysed for reactivity with bone marrow haematopoietic cells (BMHC). Using single and triple immunofluorescence labelling by flow cytometry (FCM), the mAbs were grouped according to their capacity to recognise myeloid cell populations and/or maturation stages. Group 1 consisted of mAbs labelling the majority of myeloid BMHC, including neutrophilic, eosinophilic and monocytic cells. The ligands for SWC3 and CD11b-like mAbs of group 1 showed a maturation-dependent intensity of expression. The other antibodies of group 1 reacted with BMHC to give a sharp, single peak. Group 2 mAbs reacted only with monocytic cells. The anti-human CD49e mAb Sam-1 was the only mAb detecting the majority of monocytic cells, but not other BMHC. The mAbs in group 3 recognised antigens expressed on granulocytes, but not monocytes. The previously identified SWC8 in this group proved to be useful in differentiating major population of BMHC when cells were double labelled with the pan-myeloid SWC3. Other mAbs within group 3, such as MIL4 and TMG6-5 (an anti-human CD11b), only recognised subsets of neutrophils and eosinophils. Group 4 mAbs reacted with the more mature subpopulations of neutrophils and monocytes. Some of these antibodies might prove useful for assessment of cell maturity, such as anti-CD14 and the anti-human CD50 mAb HP2/19.  相似文献
