Mapping Tumor Epitope Space by Direct Selection of Single-Chain Fv Antibody Libraries on Prostate Cancer Cells
Abstract The identification of tumor-specific cell surface antigens is a critical step toward the development of targeted therapeutics for cancer. The epitope space at the tumor...
Interleukin 4 causes isotype switching to IgE in T cell-stimulated clonal B cell cultures.
Although it has been established that IL-4 enhances both IgG1 and IgE secretion in LPS-stimulated B cell cultures, these studies failed to determine whether IL-4 preferentially ...
Monoclonal autoantibodies to subnucleosomes from a MRL/Mp(-)+/+ mouse. Oligoclonality of the antibody response and recognition of a determinant composed of histones H2A, H2B, and DNA.
Abstract MRL/Mp(-)+/+ mice produce antinuclear antibodies and develop a spontaneous autoimmune syndrome with lupus-like nephritis. We obtained a panel of seven histone-reactive ...
Genetic defect in responsiveness to the B cell mitogen lipopolysaccharide
Abstract Splenic B cells from C57BL/10ScCr mice fail to respond to the mitogenic principle of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and do not express a serologically defined “LPS receptor”...
Anti-synthetic peptide antibody reacting at the fusion junction of deletion-mutant epidermal growth factor receptors in human glioblastoma.
We have investigated human gliomas that amplify and rearrange the epidermal growth factor receptor gene, with generation of an in-frame deletion mutation of 802 nucleotides in t...
