A human-human hybridoma which produces antibodies to polioviruses.
A human-human hybridoma which produced antibodies to Sabin strain poliovirus types 3 and 2 was established. This hybridoma was constructed by fusing a HAT-sensitive variant of a human lymphoblastoid subline R4-4-6 with peripheral blood lymphocytes of a donor who had been previously immunized with poliovirus Sabin vaccines and had shown high titer of neutralizing antibodies against these viruses. This hybridoma had been cultured for more than one year and the neutralizing activities of the culture supernatants against poliovirus type 3 could still be detected. Cross neutralization with poliovirus type 2 was also observed. Karyotypic analyses of this hybrid showed that the chromosome numbers were distributed mainly between 80 and 100. Dot immunobinding assays also confirmed the reactivities of this hybridoma supernatants with poliovirus type 3 and, slightly, with type 2.
