Title: [Preparation of monoclonal antibody against Pfs25 protein and establishment of double antibody sandwich ELISA method]. Author: Li P, Ma YR, Lu J, Lei Q, Chen Y, Jiang L. Journal: Xi Bao Yu Fen Zi Mian Yi Xue Za Zhi; 2011 Dec; 27(12):1330-4. PubMed ID: 22152818. Abstract: AIM: To prepare the monoclonal antibody (mAb)against Pfs25 protein of Plasmodium falciparum, and establish the method of sandwich ELISA for detecting the Pfs25 protein. METHODS: Pfs25 protein the recombinant expressed by Pichia pastoris was purified. The purified Pfs25 protein as the antigen was used to immune the BALB/c mice, The secreting specific mAb positive cell strains, which were prepared by hybridizing the Sp2/0 myeloma cell and the spleen cell from immunized mice, were detected by indirect ELISA method. The ascites of mAb were collected from immunization F1 mice, and their biological properties were identified by indirect ELISA. The anti-Pfs25 antibody was labeled by Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP), the sandwich ELISA method to detect Pfs25 protein was established based on the anti-Pfs25 mAb 4B7 and 1B4 as coating and enzyme antibody, respectively. RESULTS: Three hybridoma cell lines secreting mAb against Pfs25 protein have been selected from the antibody positive hybridizing cells. The two of them have a better stability and specificity. The sandwich ELISA method detecting Pfs25 protein was established. Its detecte range was 0.07-1 mg/mL , and its sensitivity was 41.6 ng/mL. CONCLUSION: The anti-Pfs25 mAb are successfully prepared and the double antibody sandwich ELISA method detecting Pfs25 protein is established. Our study lay a foundation of developing transmission-blocking malaria vaccine with Pfs25 protein as antigen.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
