Monoclonal-Antibodies Which Inhibit Invitro Cytotoxicity of Axenic Entamoeba-Histolytica
No full textA panel of 12 independent hybridoma cell lines secreting monoclonal antibodies to axenic E. histolytica (HM1) have been developed. A hybridoma cell line P4 C4 P2 F8 C8 (clone C8) produced monoclonal antibodies (MoAb C8) of IgG1 isotype which recognised a 29 KD surface associated antigen of amoebic trophozoites in Western immunoblot. Immunofluorescent probing with MoAb C8 employing live and acetone fixed amoebic trophozoites indicated 29 KD molecule on the surface plasma membrane of E. histolytica trophozoites. The MoAb C8 also agglutinated the live amoebic trophozoites. Pretreatment of amoebic trophozoites with anti 29 KD monoclonal antibody significantly (P < 0.01) inhibited in vitro cytotoxicity of amoebic trophozoites to the cultured baby hamster kidney (BHK-21) cells. MoAb recognised a 29 KD molecule of E. histolytica trophozoites which mediated cytotoxic potentials of the parasite. The absence or variable degree of expression of cytotoxic 29 KD molecule may possibly serve as a marker to differentiate virulent/avirulent populations or strains of E. histolytica
