RESUMO
AIM:To generate monoclonal antibodies against human augmenter of liver regeneration (rhALR). METHODS:After BALB/C mice were immunized by the purified rhALR, the cells of spleen were fused with the cells of SP2/0; The titer and speciality were respectively fathomed from ascites or foster fluid by ELISA and Western-blot test. RESULTS:2 hybridoma cell lines were successfully obtained. The McAbs titer from ascites and foster fluid are respectively about 10-3-10-5 and 10-2-10-3. It is evident that the two McAbs were directed at different epitopes. CONCLUSIONS:The McAbs have higher speciality. It is significantly useful of the value that how hALR distribute in tissue organs, how the hALR signals the metabolism in the body and the control distribution of the hALR on cell growth on the translational level and so on is researched.
RESUMO
AIM: To evaluate the specific cellular immune response in mice inoculated with the recombinant hepatitis B virus (HBV) surface vaccine (rHBs). METHODS: Spleen T lymphocyte reactivity to rHBs was assessed by a proliferation assay and cytokine secretion. BALB/c mouse were intraperitoneally inoculated with rHBs at doses of 0.65, 1.25, 2.5 or 5 ?g for once or twice. 4 weeks later, spleen lymphocytes were harvested and restimulated with rHBs in experimental group or with PBS as control. The spleen lymphocytes were labeled with [~3H]-thymidine for 3 days. The [~3H]-thymidine incorporation was measured, which expressed as the incorporation of [~3H] (counts?min~ -1 ) and stimulation index (SI) was calculated by the method of dividing the cpm obtained in the experimental group by that in control group. The content of IL-2 and IFN-? secreted from the spleen lymphocyte were measured by the method of ELISA. RESULTS: 2 weeks after primary vaccination, the SI in 0.65, 1.25, 2.5 and 5 groups was 1.55, 1.93, 2.41, 2.81 ng/L, respectively. IL-2 was 5.48?8.88, 9.28?6.98, 28.53?14.32, 64.69?20.88 ng/L, respectively. IFN-? was 8.22?8.61, 9.89?9.34, 20.27?15.50, 30.77?22.12 ng/L, respectively. 2 weeks after boost vaccination, the SI in 0.65, 1.25, 2.5 and 5 groups was 1.61, 2.05, 3.74, 3.62 ng/L, respectively. The IL-2 was 5.75?5.04, 102.53?67.52, 177.13?91.12, 332.10?124.31 ng/L, respectively. IFN-? was 3.63?4.42, 28.33?13.04, 59.66?25.75, 80.73?19.30 ng/L, respectively. CONCLUSION: Specific proliferation activity and IL-2, IFN-? secretion from the spleen lymphocytes of the mouse inoculated with rHBs are produced,that the strength is dependent on the dose of vaccination.
