Inhibition of a plasminogen activator from oncogenic virus-transformed mouse cells by rabbit antibodies against the enzyme.
Antisera were raised in rabbits against an electrophoretically pure 48 000 dalton plasminogen activator from mouse cells transformed by an oncogenic virus. The IgG fraction of the antisera inhibited 48 000 dalton mouse plasminogen activators from a variety of sources (neoplastic and nonneoplastic), a 29 00) dalton plasminogen activator from mouse urine and a 48 000 dalton plasminogen activator from rat urine. No inhibition was observed of a 75 000 dalton plasminogen activator extracted from mouse lung, of mouse plasmin or of plasminogen activators from human urine and from oncogenic-virus transformed chicken cells. The IgG antibodies were stronger and more specific inhibitors of the 48 000 dalton mouse plasminogen activator than any previously tested compounds.
