title: Relationship between choline derivatives and mouse erythrocyte membrane antigens revealed by mouse monoclonal antibodies. I. Anticholine activity of anti-mouse erythrocyte monoclonal antibodies.
abstract: Different clones of mouse hybridomas, derived from the fusion of unstimulated mouse peritoneal cells with mouse myeloma cells, producing IgM monoclonal antibodies directed against the membrane of bromelain-treated mouse erythrocytes (MRBC(Br)) have been previously established. We have recently shown that one of these hybridomas produce, in ascites, antibodies cross-reacting with phosphorylcholine derivatives (trimethylammonium (TMA) derivatives). In this work the cross-reactivity for TMA derivatives of the monoclonal antibodies produced by 4 anti-MRBC(Br) hybridomas have been studied at the cell level (plaque-forming cells). Phosphorylcholine, choline bromide and p-aminophenyl-trimethylammonium were found to be potent specific inhibitors of plaque formation (anti MRBC(Br)). The hemolytic activities of ascites and tissue culture supernatants were studied and their inhibition by TMA derivatives was determined. Immunoglobulins from ascites purified on TMA immunoadsorbent column were analyzed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, their spectrotype was compared to the spectrotype of immunoglobulins from tissue culture supernatants from the same hybridoma radioactively tagged by internal incorporation of [14C]leucine. It could be shown without ambiguity that the PTMA column retained an IgM with the same characteristics as the IgM secreted in vitro.
