Characterization of binding of four monoclonal antibodies to the human ovarian adenocarcinoma cell line HEY.
Four mouse monoclonal antibodies (mAb) (10B, IgG1; 8C, IgG2a; M2A, IgG2a; M2D, IgG2b) were characterized with respect to their binding to the ovarian adenocarcinoma cell line HEY, using displacement assays and Scatchard plot analyses. The four mAb reacted with different antigens on the surface of HEY cells, with affinity constants ranging from 1 X 10(9) to 3 X 10(9) M-1. The number of binding sites per cell for each antibody was approximately 2 X 10(4). mAb 8C and M2D remained associated with the cell surface following binding to their respective antigens, while mAb 10B was rapidly internalized, with 50% of the bound mAb being lost from the cell surface during 4 h of incubation at 37 degrees C. These different binding characteristics of the mAb may influence their ability to target radioactivity and cytotoxic drugs to HEY cells.
