ABSTRACT Tissue Culture. Cultured lines of different human cancers were ob tained from the collection of J. Fogli and from the laboratory of Human We have generated two new mouse monoclonal antibodies against Tumor Immunology, Sloan-Kettering Institute, New York. The pros prostate cancer. P25.48 (IgG3) and P25.91 (IgG2a) were derived from a tate cancer cell lines PC-3 (17), DU-145 (18), and LNCaP (19) were fusion using fresh prostate cancer cells as the immunogen. Initial screen obtained from the American Tissue Culture Collection, Rockville, MD. ing was performed by indirect on frozen tissue The established cell lines were cultured in modified Eagle's medium sections of prostate cancer specimens. The specificity analysis was per supplemented with 7.5% FCS, 0.1 HIMnonessential amino acids, 2 mM formed by indirect immunoperoxidase on frozen sections of normal tissues L-glutamine, 100 units of penicillin/ml, and 100 tig of streptomycin/ and benign and malignant prostate tissues. ml (all from GIBCO, Grand Island, NY). Hybridomas were initially P25.48 and P2S.91 did not react with any benign prostatic tissues (0 cloned in medium consisting of RPMI-1640 medium supplemented of 17), but reacted with a subset of the malignant prostatic tissues. Five with 10% FCS, 0.1 mM nonessential amino acids, 2 mM L-glutamine, specimens of well-differentiated carcinoma were tested and did not react 100 units of penicillin/ml, 100 Mg of streptomycin/ml, 50 ¡MI2- with P25.48 or with P25.91. Of 16 higher grade specimens, nine reacted mercaptoethanol, and HAT medium (GIBCO, Grand Island, NY). with both P25.48 and P25.91, one reacted with P2S.48 only, and one Subcloning was done in HT medium. reacted with P25.91 only. In most positive cases, the reactivity was Mouse Monoclonal Production. MABs P25.48 and P25.91 heterogenous. resulted from a fusion of mouse myeloma cells (NS-1 ) with spleen cells P25.48 and P25.91 showed a very restricted pattern of reactivity in from a female BALB/c x CBY mouse that had been immunized with nonprostatic tissues. Of 50 normal specimens, only one breast specimen a mechanically obtained cell suspension from a fresh prostate cancer showed some reactivity. None of the nine fetal tissues or of the IS specimen (P251). This tumor was histológica!Iy classified as moderately malignant tissues tested reacted with these monoclonal antibodies. to poorly differentiated carcinoma. The immunization was performed The pattern of reactivity of P2S.48 and P25.91 suggests that they with 1 x 10" cells suspended in 0.6 ml of PBS and injected i.p. without recognize the same antigen. This antigen is selectively expressed by adjuvant. No boosting injection was done. Five days after the immuni malignant prostatic epithelium. In addition, it appears to be distinct from zation, the mouse spleen cells were harvested and fused with the NS-1 all other previously described prostate cancer-associated antigens. mouse myeloma cells in a 2:1 ratio (splenocytes:myeloma) with poly ethylene glycol (M, 4000) as previously described (20). The hybridomas were cloned in HAT medium. Three wk later, supernatants were INTRODUCTION screened for reactivity by IIF on frozen tissue sections of P251. MABs P25.48 and P25.91 hybridomas were then subcloned 3 times by limiting Mouse monoclonal antibody technology has been used to characterize antigens expressed by prostatic epithelium (1-13) dilution in HT medium. They were subsequently grown in RPMI plus 10% FCS. Undiluted supernatants from these cultures were used as the (Table 1). Most of the antigens described so far are expressed source of MABs for all IIF and indirect immunoperoxidase studies. by both benign and malignant prostatic tissues, and the level of They contained 15 to 25 ng of immunoglobulins per ml. antigen expression usually decreases in higher grade prostate Serological Procedures.
