Abstract:
Objective:To prepare functional monoclonal antibodies against human 4-1BBL molecule and analysis of their biological characteristics.Methods:Female BALB/c mice of 6-8 weeks old were immunized with 4-1BBL transfectant (L929/4-1BBL) as immunogen.The spleen B cells of the mice were fused with sp2/0 and hybridoma cells were screened with 4-1BBL transfectant (L929/4-1BBL) by FCM.The biological characteristics of antibody were investigated by rapid isotyping analysis,karyotype analysis,competitive inhibition test etc.Furthermore,the growth of monocytes in vitro was determined by cell number counting and the cytokine concentration in the supernatants was assayed by ELISA.Results:One hybridoma cell line named 3E7 was obtained,which had the property of secreting anti-human 4-1BBL monoclonal antibody continuously and steadily.This mAb specifically recognized human 4-1BBL molecules.The experimental results manifested that mAb 3E7 could effectively enhance the growth of monocytes and the high level IL-6 and TNF-? secretion.Conclusion:One hybridoma cell line which can secret a functional mouse anti-human 4-1BBL mAb has been developed successfully.This mAb can specifically recognize human 4-1BBL and regulate growth and functions of monocytes in vitro.
