  • Title: Identification and characterization of a hamster monoclonal antibody anti-2.28 directed against a 70-kilodalton activation antigen on human monocytes.
    Author: Sung SS, Walters JA.
    Journal: J Immunol; 1989 Mar 15; 142(6):1903-8. PubMed ID: 2466080.
    Abstract:
    Hamster mAb against activated human monocytes were examined for their reactivities against monocyte activation Ag. One mAb, anti-2.28, stained only monocytes activated with LPS plus IFN-gamma, but not unactivated peripheral blood monocytes, polymorphonuclear leukocytes, lymphocytes, RBC, and platelets. However, it stained peripheral blood T cells activated with PMA plus anti-CD3 and peripheral blood and tonsillar B cells activated with PMA plus anti-mu. Of the 35 cell lines of diverse origin examined for immunofluorescence staining by anti-2.28, only EBV-transformed cell lines showed strong staining by this mAb. One pre-B cell line, Nalm-12, could be induced by PMA to exhibit intermediate staining. Immunoprecipitation studies identified the 2.28 Ag as a 70- to 85-kDa monomer. Immunofluorescence staining, immunoprecipitation, and peptide mapping studies indicated that 2.28 was different from a number of monocyte and lymphocyte surface Ag including Mo3e, B-4 (CD19), B-5, CD39, and the G28-8 Ag Bgp 95. These studies suggest that 2.28 may be a novel hemopoietic non-lineage-specific activation Ag.
