Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo prepare monoclonal antibodies (McAbs) against VP1 capsid protein of Enterovirus 71.
METHODSTwo peptides, SP55 and SP70, containing amino acid 163-177 and 208-222 of VP1, were synthesized respectively. Immunized BALB/c mice with the synthetic peptides to establish the hybridoma cell strains secreting specific McAb to VP1. After the specific McAbs were prepared, identified and analyzed the titer by indirect ELISA assay. The positive clones were selected and their neutralization titer were determined by neutralization test.
RESULTSTwo high titered anti-VP1 antibodies secreted by the hybridoma cells showed good neutralization reaction with enterovirus 71 on RD cells, and the neutralization titer were 1:8 and 1:16 respectively.
CONCLUSIONTwo high titered anti-VP1 antibodies, with good neutralization activity, secreted by the hybridoma cells, which lays the foundation for further study.
