尼帕病毒和亨得拉病毒核蛋白单克隆抗体的制备与鉴定

尼帕病毒（Nipahvirus，NiV）和亨得拉病毒（Hendravirus，HeV）是近年来出现的2种新的高致病性副粘病毒，在我国尚未发现。为防范2种病毒在我国的出现，本研究开展了前瞻性工作，成功研制了针对2种病毒核蛋白（N）的单克隆抗体，可用于病毒监测与诊断。首先利用大肠杆菌表达的2种病毒N蛋白免疫BALB／c小鼠，细胞融合后应用间接免疫荧光的方法对杂交瘤细胞克隆进行筛选，获得了5株N蛋白特异单抗。单抗腹水的抗体效价均超过2×10^5，培养上清抗体效价1：64～1：256。Western—blot和间接免疫荧光试验证明，5株单抗均特异针对N蛋白，其中1株（H4D11）只与HeVN蛋白反应，而不与NiVN蛋白反应，表明它具有鉴别2种病毒的能力。所研制的单抗对建立2种病毒的检测技术，用于动物监测，以防范2种新发传染病在我国流行具有重要意义。     

The anti VEGF monoclonal antibody conjugated with nanometer particle of 5-FU

AIM:The characteristics of nanometer particles, which were prepared by the conjugation of anti-VEGF monoclonal antibodies and 5-fluorouracil-loaded polylactic acid nanometer particles (5-FU-NPs), were investigated for improving the anticancer activity of 5-FU. METHODS:The method of couple linkage of chemical bonds was used to prepare the 5-FU-NPs with VEGF antibody, then the appearance, distribution of particle diameter, releasing in vitro and the immunological activity were detected. RESULTS:The 5-FU-Ab-NPs appeared as regular globular, the average particle diameter was (202±23)nm. The 5-FU-Ab-NPs possessed the similar delayed release character of 5-FUs. More than 80% of the immmunogical activity were detected in conjugates-retained antibody by the immunological methods and electron microscopy. CONCLUSION:The 5-FU-Ab-NPs possess the similar delayed released activity to 5-FU-NPs and have double activity of immune targeting and delayed releasing, which may increase the local concentration of 5-FU.     

Analyses of monoclonal antibodies reacting with porcine wCD6: Results from the Second International Swine CD workshop

Among the 57 monoclonal antibodies analyzed within the T-cell group of the Second International Swine CD Workshop, one mAb fell within cluster T14a that included the CD6 standard a38b2 (No. 175). The new mAb MIL8 (No. 082) and a38b2 both precipitated from activated T-cells a 150 kDa monomeric protein. Staining patterns on the various cell types were similar. There was no inhibition of binding of either mAb to peripheral blood T-cells with the opposite mAb. The new mAb, MIL8, reacts with a separate epitope on porcine wCD6.     

Monoclonal antibodies putatively identifying porcine B cells

Comparison was made of the binding of 38 test and three standard monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to B cells from various pig lymphoid tissues by flow cytometry (FCM) and immunohistochemistry. Some mAbs were also tested on B cells from foetal pig tissues. Twenty of the new mAbs bound, though to variable degrees, to porcine B cells but only three were given cluster assignations: C35 (#147) and BB6-11C9 (#167) were assigned to wCD21 and 2F6/8 (#057) was assigned to SWC7.     

Reactivity of workshop monoclonal antibodies on paraformaldehyde-fixed porcine blood mononuclear cells

One hundred sixty-four monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) of the second international swine CD workshop were tested for their reactivity with porcine blood mononuclear cells before and after fixing the cells with varying concentrations of paraformaldehyde (PFA) (1, 5 and 10 g l⁻¹). A total of 38 (out of 134) positive reacting mAbs were significantly affected in their binding behavior on fixed cells. Modulation was seen as reduction in binding (staining intensity and/or % positive cells, n=18) or in elevated values (n=20). Modified mAb binding occurred after fixing cells with 5 to 10 g l⁻¹ PFA.     

Analyses of monoclonal antibodies reacting with porcine CD3: results from the Second International Swine CD Workshop

Among the 57 monoclonal antibodies (mAb) analyzed within the T-cell group from the Second Swine CD Workshop, six mAb fell within clusters T10 and T11 (No. 088, STH164; No. 148, FY1A3; No. 149, FY2C1; No. 150, FY1H2; No. 151, FY2A11; No. 169, BB23-8E6). The mAb within these two groups gave a similar appearance on flow cytometry and stained all peripheral blood T-cells as defined by CD4 and wCD8 staining. All six mAb precipitated a 24 kDa protein. On the basis of inhibition analyses performed as part of the workshop and from published data, the mAb define at least three epitopes. There is only minimal stimulation of resting peripheral lymphocytes, but four of the mAb produce strong stimulation in the presence of PMA. With the exception of STH164, all have been shown to react with CD3-transfected COS cells. The new mAb, therefore, react with three epitopes on porcine CD3 designated CD3a (BB23-8E6, FY2A11), CD3b (FY1A3, FY2C1), and CD3c (FY1H2). mAb STH164 appears to be reactive with another epitope, however, since its reactivity with CD3 has not been confirmed it is designated as wCD3.

Role of outer membrane proteins in immunity against murine salmonellosis--1. Antibody response to crude outer membrane proteins of Salmonella typhimurium

The humoral immune response to crude outer membrane proteins (comp) of S. typhimurium in mice has been characterized. Maximal and quicker antibody response was observed when 50 micrograms of comp was injected intraperitoneally. The comp of smooth C5 strain of S. typhimurium evoked antibody response to both lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and proteins. Absorption of these sera with LPS coated erythrocytes eliminated the antibodies to LPS completely, while the antibody level to protein was left unaltered. The comp from rough mutant (lacking O-specific chain of LPS) of S. typhimurium elicited antibodies to proteins but not to LPS. These results indicate the concomitant production of antibodies to Salmonella outer membrane proteins also. The significance of such antibodies in protection and diagnosis has been discussed.     

Characteristics of monoclonal antibodies against Piscirickettsia salmonis

A panel of 28 monoclonal antibodies against Piscirickettsia salmonis was produced using a purified fraction of the bacterium. To determine their specificity to the pathogen, the antibodies were assayed by ELISA and indirect immunofluorescence microscopy. Six monoclonal antibodies were selected based on their strong reaction against P. salmonis and absence of cross-reactivity with other common fish pathogens. Western blot analysis showed that the antibodies reacted to several antigens of P. salmonis . Immunofluorescence assays revealed that these antibodies reacted with the same specificity to different isolates of P. salmonis obtained from the south of Chile. This panel of monoclonal antibodies represents an important tool to develop simple, rapid, sensitive and highly specific methods for the detection of the pathogen and diagnosis of the disease.     

Analysis of exotoxins produced by atypical isolates of Aeromonas salmonicida,by enzymatic and serological methods

In this study, exotoxins produced by 62 Aeromonas salmonicida strains and the bacterium Haemophilus piscium were analysed. Enzymatic assays, zymograms and serological detection were used to monitor secretion by bacterial strains of the previously described exotoxins P1, GCAT and AsaP1 and also the extracellular P2 metallo-gelatinase and a serine caseinase, which is different from the P1 protease and has not yet been characterized. Based on the results, the strains were divided into five groups. One comprised the type strains for A. salmonicida ssp. masoucida, H. piscium and 36% of the atypical isolates, and another, a type strain for A. salmonicida ssp. smithia together with 14% of the atypical isolates. A second type strain of A. salmonicida ssp. smithia was grouped with 8% of the atypical isolates. The largest group contained the type strains for A. salmonicida ssp. achromogenes and 38% of the atypical isolates. The type strains for A. salmonicida ssp. salmonicida were in the last group with all the four typical strains and 4% of the atypical isolates. The combination of zymogram and serological detection used is recommended as the most reliable method for characterizing A. salmonicida strains according to their exotoxin secretion.
