  • Title: Autoimmune-like antibodies to the ligand-binding sites of myeloma proteins.
    Author: Sirisinha S, Eisen HN.
    Journal: Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A; 1971 Dec; 68(12):3130-5. PubMed ID: 4108872.
    Abstract:
    BALB/c mice were immunized with three A-myeloma proteins of BALB/c-2 or BALB/c origin (produced by plasmacytomas MOPC-315, MOPC-460, Adj. PC-22A). Noncross reacting antibodies were formed against Proteins-315 and 460, but the response to Protein-22A was marginal. Proteins-315 and 460 have anti-dinitrophenyl activity, and their reactions with the corresponding BALB/c antibodies were inhibited by dinitrophenyl ligands. It appears that antibodies can be formed in BALB/c mice against unique "idiotypic" determinants in the ligand-binding sites of some BALB/c mycloma proteins.
