Monoclonal antibodies to human pancreatic trypsin 1 inhibit the activation of human trypsinogens 1 and 2.
Two monoclonal antibodies (Mab) raised against human pancreatic trypsin 1, Mab G6 and A8, were previously isolated and characterized. The two Mab which recognize trypsinogen 1 are found to inhibit the activation of trypsinogen 1 by enterokinase. The inhibition of activation by the two Mab is concentration-dependent, rapid and virtually complete with Mab G6. Activation of trypsinogen 2 is totally inhibited by Mab G6, while Mab A8 has no effect on the activation of trypsinogen 2. The two monoclonal antibodies have opposite effects on the proteolytic activity of trypsin 1; Mab G6 increases proteolytic activity while Mab A8 inhibits trypsin activity by as much as 40%. This inhibition is concentration dependent but cannot account for the complete inhibition of activation of trypsinogen 1. Neither monoclonal antibody significantly inhibits the esterolytic activity of either form of human trypsin. Western-blot analysis of the reactivity of the two monoclonal antibodies with trypsinogens of various species shows that only Mab G6 cross-reacts with dog trypsinogen.
