Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo prepare a monoclonal antibody against hepatoma-specific gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT-II) and study it's application.
METHODSTwo Bal B/C mice were immunized with pure GGT-II, then their spleen cells were separated and fused to SP 2/0 myeloma cells so as to make hybridoma cell strain which could yield monoclonal antibody against GGT-II. And it's effect of binding GGT-II was detected by competitive inhibitory enzyme linked-immunosorbance assay (ELISA).
RESULTSA mouse hybridoma cell strain which could steadily secrete the monoclonal antibody against GGT-II was obtained and named 2G4F6B2. This monoclonal antibody belonged to IgG1 subclass and was specific to GGT-II, without cross-reaction to GGT-II. The result of detecting human serum GGT-II by ELISA with the monoclonal antibody accorded with that by polyacrylamide gradient electrophoresis.
CONCLUSIONThe monoclonal antibody against GGT-II prepared in this study has high specificity and can be applied in clinic to detect human serum GGT-II.
