title: Anti-idiotypes against an anti-haloperidol antibody bind to sigma receptors.
abstract: Anti-idiotypic monoclonal antibodies that interact with the binding site of sigma receptors were generated. First, BALB/c mice were immunized with a haloperidol-bovine serum albumin conjugate, and monoclonal anti-haloperidol antibodies that recognize the piperidinyl moiety of haloperidol molecule were obtained. Second, for generation of anti-idiotypic antibodies, BALB/c mice were immunized with the anti-haloperidol monoclonal antibodies coupled to keyhole limpet hemocyanin. Anti-idiotypic antisera and three hybridomas secreting anti-idiotypic monoclonal antibodies were obtained. All of them were shown to inhibit [3H]haloperidol binding to the anti-haloperidol antibodies. The anti-idiotypes were potent in displacing the binding of [3H]haloperidol to rat brain sigma receptors. Furthermore, they significantly immunoprecipitated the sigma receptors from a detergent-solubilized preparation. These findings demonstrate the generation of anti-idiotypic monoclonal antibodies specifically interacting with membrane-bound and solubilized sigma receptors.
