Cockroach antigen have been known as a cause of allergic disease. German ockroach(Blattella germanica L.) was chosen because it has the highest distribution range and poulation density. To identify the common and specific antigens of adult and larval stage of german cockroach, we made monoclonal antibodies which were confirmen by SDS-PAGE and EITB. Anti-B. germanica antibody producing hybridomas were 24 among the total 960wells. Only 4 hybridomas did not have cross reaction to other species of cockroach and hluse dust mites(Dermatophagodies farinae and D. pteronyssius). SDS-PAGE revealed about 20 bands from 90Kd to 15Kd to 15Kd. ETB showed specific antigens a6 60, 72 and 82Kd which were experimented by the culture supernatant of 4 selected hybridomas. Especially 60Kd coincided with a band of immunized mouse sera.

Transcription of mitochondrial DNA in the yeast S. cerevisiae depends on recognition of a consensus nonanucleotide promoter sequence by mitochondrial RNA polymerase specificity factor, which is a 43 kDa polypeptide encoded by the nuclear MTF1 gene. Mtf1p has only limited amino acid sequence homology to bacterial sigma factors, but functions in many ways like sigma in that it is required for promoter recognition and initiation of transcription. To analyze the corebinding region of Mtf1p, monoclonal antibodies to this protein were prepared. Recombinant Mtf1p overproduced in E. coli was purified to near homogeneity and used to raise monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). From fused cells screened for Mtf1p mAbs by immunodot blot analysis, 19 positive clones were initially isolated. Further analysis of positive clones by Western blotting resulted in 4 mAbs of Mtf1p.

Twenty-one monoclonal anti-DNA autoantilndies were produced by fusing spleen cells from an autoimmune MRL/lpr mouse with SP2/0 myeloma cells. Hybridomas generated by the fusions were chosen for cloning on the basis of DNA binding by supernatant antibody. Each monoclonal antibody was purified to homogeneity and analyzed for the heavy and light chain isotypes and the binding specificity for single-stranded DNA, double-stranded DNA, and RNA. Sequence specificities and isoelectric points of the antibodies were also examined. All of the antibodies were lgG and tended to bind to both single-stranded and double-stranded DNA with a preference for the double-stranded form. Some of them also bound to RNA. Isoelectric points of the antibodies were shown to be high. The antibodies described in this report have characteristics of pathogenic anti-DNA antibodies.

필자는 서울대학교 의과대학 병리학 교실에서 만든 항 백혈병 항체(항 CALLA 항체, 항 JL-1 항체)에 대해 $^{99m}Tc$과 $^{125}I$의 표지 방법 및 면역학적 성상을 연구하여 임상 응용의 토대를 만들고자 하였다. $^{99m}Tc$은 pretargeting transchelation법으로 $^{125}I$는 lodogen법으로 표지하였다. 각 항체에 대해 결합 반응검사, Scatchard 분석, 변조 현상 검사를 시행하였다. $^{125}I$는 두 항체 모두에서 90%전후의 높은 표지율을 보인 반면, $^{99m}Tc$ 경우 70%이하의 표지율을 보여 개선점이 요구되었다. 결합반응검사에서도 $^{99m}Tc$을 표지한 항체는 30%정도의 낮은 면역 반응성을 보였다. Scatchard 분석 결과 결합상수 모두가 $10^9$으로 좋은 친화력을 보였고, 세포당 항체 결합 수는 $10^4$으로 비교적 높은 농도로 나타났다. 변조 현상은 모든 경우에서 나타나지 않았다. 항 CALLA 항체, 항 JL-1 항체는 향후 림프종과 백혈병의 진단 및 치료에 도움이 될 수 있으리라 기대된다.

Most of the diagnostic methods currently used for the detection of neoplastic masses provide indirect evidence. To obtain greater specificity in the interpretation of neoplasias by in vivo methods, the immunological approach appears to be most promising. Two problems that interfered with progress in this field were the lack of tumor specific antigen and the lack of well-defined and reproducible antibodies. To improve the sensitivity and specificity of radioimmunoscintigraphy as a technique for tumor localization, the use of monoclonal antibodies, fragments of antibodies and single photon emission computerized tomography (SPECT) are reasonable. The obvious advantages of monoclonal antibodies are their homogeneity, their specificity for the immunizing antigen and the reaction with a single determinant-thus no large immunecomplexes with antigen are formed. Monoclonal antibody technique has recently provided an opportunity to reevaluate the role of nuclear medicine for the diagnosis of malignant diseases by using the immunological approach. Out first results by means of radioimmunoscintigraphy of CEA and CA 19-9 producing tumors using a cocktail of fragments F $(ab')_2$, of mocolonal antibodies to CA 19-9 and CEA labeled with $^{131}I$ (IMACIS-1) are reported. The aims of this investigation was to evaluate the role of immunoscintigraphy in patients with colorectal and other cancers for diagnosis of local recurrences and metastasis. This report contains results of the first 8 colorectal and pancreas cancer patients with the elevation of the level of serum CEA and/or CA 19-9. IMACIS-1 was injected intravenously during 30 minutes in 100 ml saline solution after skin test. Planar scintigrams were recorded 3, 5 and 7 days after the injection of the IMACIS-1. Anterior, lateral and posterior views of the liver as well as anterior and posterior views of the pelvis were obtained in each patients as an $^{131}I-antibody$ image. We were able to localize exactly the malignant process with the double-nuclide double-compound $^{99m}Tc\;^{131}I$ (Tc+l) scintigrams. In Tc & I double-nuclide scintigraphy, computer subtraction display provided more clear localization of the tumor. We compared the results of radioimmunoscintigraphy with CT, ultrasonograms, conventional scintigrams. The results were as follows: 1) The sensitivity and specificity of radioimmunoscintigraphy using the fragments $F(ab')_2$ of the cocktails of CEA and CA 19-9 monoclonal antibodies were 80% and 100% respectively. 2) Tumor detection rate was not proportionated to the level of serum tumor markets. 3) Second tracer technique was essential for tumor localization as an anatomic landmark using double-nuclide scintigraphy. 4) A slow infusion of the antibodies was necessary to prevent the formation of large immune complexes. 5) Tumor/non-tumor radioactivity was most elevated at 7 days delayed imaging. 6) Using planar scintigraphic technique of $^{131}I$ labeled monoclonal antibodies are possible for imaging most of the tumors.

Canine trypsin-like immunoreactivity (cTLI), which is a mirror of the concentration of trypsin and trypsinogen, is a pancreas-specific enzyme and a suitable marker for canine pancreatitis and especially exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI). To develop the immunochromatographic test kit, monoclonal antibodies that recognize cTLI were prepared. Anionic trypsin, cationic trypsin, and chymotrypsin from canine pancreas were successfully purified to homogeneity, using ammonium sulfate fractionation and benzamidine-affinity chromatography. The purification fold for anionic trypsin was 108 times when compared with that of the homogenation of pancreas. The molecular weights by SDS-PAGE analysis were approximately 23 kDa for chymotrypsin and approximately 20 kDa for cationic trypsin and anionic trypsin, respectively. Using the purified trypsin-like proteins, ten hybridomas which secret canine trypsin-specific monoclonal antibody were prepared. Klotz plot indicated that hybridomas, 5G2H10G4 and 2F4A11, have high affinity constant (Ka) of $4.1\;{\times}\;10^{9}$ and $1.8\;{\times}\;10^{9}$, respectively. Especially, 5F9H3 showed the cationic typsin-specific binding pattern and its Ka was determined to $4.5\;{\times}\;10^{9}$. The development of immunochromatographic test kit using these monoclonal antibodies against cTLI will be very useful in the diagnosis of canine EPI or canine pancreatitis.

The soluble transferrin receptor(TfR) in human serum has been shown recently to be a truncated form of intact membrane bound receptor containing most of the extracellular domain. We purfied the transferin-free TfR from human serum by immounoaffinity chromatography which produced the single protein identity in high resolution gel chormatography. The monoclonal antibodies(MAb) against purifed serum TfR were produced by fusion of spleen cells o fimmunized Balb/c mice and SP2 cells. Ten hybrids producing MAb specific for serum TfR were identifed and determine their iostypes. A immunoraddiometric assay (IRMA) for serum TfR was established using two monoclonal IgG1 antibodies as the coating and indicator antibodies on the bosis of their suitability in sandwich IRMA of serum TfR. The mean serum TfR levels in the 15 normal male, 15 normal female, and 19 iron-deficient subjects were 5.4$\pm$0.98, 4.6$\pm$0/76, and 18.0$\pm$12.8mg/1, respectively, and the difference in mean values between normal and iron deficient subjects was significant(p=0.0005). There existed the inverse logarithmic relationship(r=-0.9336, p<0.0001) between the serum TfR and ferritin levels.

Monoclonal antibodies have become widely investigated in the Nuclear Oncology, especially in the radioimmunosassay of tumor markers and in vivo radioimmunoimaging of cancer. However, there are numerous factors as to whether radioimmunoimaging will ultimately successful. For imaging of tumors, metallic radionuclides such as In-111, Ga-67, Tc-99m have favorable nuclear properties than widely used I-131. These radioistopes have characteristics of the useful radiation for imaging, convenient short half-lives and the simple and rapid radiolabeling of monoclonal antibodies by using bifunctional chelaing agents. The obtained chelate-tagged antibodies are quite stable both in vitro and in vivo, without interfering antibody activities and animal experiments provided a good basis for its clinical applicability for the radioimmunoimaging of cancer. Much attention has also been given to the possibility, only beginning to be exploited, of the specific treatment of malignant neoplasms with these agents. Although specific antibody has not been developed that is uniquely specific for cancer alone and there are still many questions to be answered and problems to be overcome before radioimmunoimaging can be successfully used in ptients with cancer, these methods can be applied to the coupling of monoclonal antibodies with anti-neoplastic drugs or radionuclides suitable for internal radiation therapy of cancer.
