Definitions

  • MONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES AND THEIR USE This invention relates to monoclonal antibodies and their use.
  • Shigella is described in Zinsser Microbiology (17th ed.) 739-741, as primarily human pathogens, but they are also isolated occasionally from other animals.
  • the genus Shigella is classified in the tribe Escherichieae, and Shigella dysenteriae, Shigella flexneri, Shigella boydii and Shigella sonnei constitute the four species of the genus. Speciation is based upon serologic and biochemical reactions.
  • Shigella species have been among the Shigella species on the basis of antigenic structures.
  • the Shigellae may be divided into four major 0 antigenic groups designated A, B, C and D, which correspond to the species S_. dysenteriae, S_. flexneri, S_. boydii and S_. sonnei, respectively.
  • Each major group or species is also sub-divided into types on the basis of the 0 antigen. These sub-groups are designated by arabic numbers.
  • Bacterial diarrhea is a common and often serious condition manifest as fluid loss from the bowel, leading in many cases to dehydration, and occasionally death.
  • Shigella In addition to diarrhea, Shigella is known to cause gram-negative sepsis which is a bloodstream infection. It is one of the major infectious disease problems encountered in modern medical centres. While it can be transient and self-limited, severe gram-negative sepsis constitutes a medical emergency. Present treatment and diagnosis of Shigella infections vary depending on the locus of the infection. It is estimated that in the United States and Europe many millions of cases of bacterial diarrhea occur annually, of which several million are seen by a physician or admitted to a hospital. Because of the self-limiting nature of the adult disease, most people do not seek treatment. Of the people seeking treatment, bacterial diagnosis of diarrhea is presently made by stool culture techniques. These techniques are generally performed only in hospitals and are slow, requiring one to three days. During this time, the patient is exposed, if treated, to the expense and potential hazard of inappropriate therapy. However, if not treated, the patient is exposed to the hazard of a deteriorating condition pending the test result and initiation of therapy.
  • the test for gram-negative sepsis involves processing blood and urine cultures and other procedures on occasion.
  • blood culture tests are cumbersome. They require a day, and often several days, to return results. They require expert laboratory skills because of the complex nature of human blood which tends to interact non-specifically with many of the test reagents.
  • existing methods of detection of Shigella with high accuracy in diarrheal or gram-negative sepsis are less than satisfactory in that they consume large amounts of expensive skilled labour and laboratory time, generally taking one and often several days before returning results.
  • the present invention provides novel monoclonal antibodies for use in accurately and rapidly diagnosing samples for the presence of Shigella antigens and/or organisms.
  • the present invention comprises monoclonal antibodies specific for an antigen of Shigella; in particular, the 0A1, OA2, OA3, OA4, OA5, OA6, OA7, OA8, OA9 and OA10 antigens of Shigella dysenteriae, the OBl,.OB2, OB3, OB4, OB5 and OB6 antigens of Shigella flexneri, the OCl, OC2, OC3, OC4, OC5, OC6, OC7, OC8, OC9, OC10, OCll, OC12, OC13, OC14 and OC15 antigens of Shigella boydii, and the ODl antigen of Shigella sonnei, the invasiveness antigens 1 and 2, attachment antigens 1 and 2, enterotoxin 1 and 2, as well as a monoclon
  • the invention also comprises labelled monoclonal antibodies for use in diagnosing the presence of the Shigella antigens, each comprising a monoclonal antibody against one of the above-mentioned antigens to Shigella or to a particular species thereof and having linked thereto an appropriate label.
  • the label can be, for example,, a radioactive isotope, enzyme, fluorescent compound, chemiluminescent compound, bioluminescent compound, ferromagnetic atom or particle.
  • the invention further comprises the process for diagnosing the presence of Shigella antigens or organisms in a specimen, comprising contacting said specimen with the labelled monoclonal antibody in an appropriate immunoassay procedure.
  • the invention is also directed to a therapeutic composition
  • a therapeutic composition comprising a monoclonal antibody for an antigen of Shigella and a carrier or diluent, as well as kits containing at least one labelled monoclonal antibody to an antigen of a Shigella.
  • the monoclonal antibodies of the present invention are prepared by fusing spleen cells from a mammal which has been immunised against the particular Shigella antigen, with an appropriate myeloma cell line, preferably NSO (uncloned) , P3NS1-Ag4/1, or Sp2/0 Agl4.
  • the resultant product is then cultured in a standard HAT (hypoxanthine, aminopterin and thymidine) medium. Screening tests for the specific monoclonal antibodies are employed utilising immunoassay techniques which will be described below.
  • the immunised spleen cells may be derived from any mammal, such as primates, humans, rodents (i.e. mice, rats and rabbits) , bovines, ovines and canines, but the present invention will be described in connection with mice.
  • the mouse is first immunised by injection of the particular Shigella antigen chosen, generally for a period of approximately eleven weeks. When the mouse shows sufficient antibody production against the antigen, as determined by conventional assay, it is given a booster injection of the appropriate Shigella antigen, and then killed so that the immunised spleen may be removed. The fusion can then be carried out utilising immunised spleen cells and an appropriate myeloma cell line.
  • the fused cells yielding an antibody which gives a positive response to the presence of the particular Shigella antigen are removed and cloned utilising any of the standard methods.
  • the monoclonal antibodies from the clones are then tested against standard antigens to determine their specificity for the particular Shigella antigen.
  • the monoclonal antibody selected, which is specific for the particular Shigella antigen or species, is then bound to an appropriate label.
  • Amounts of antibody sufficient for labelling and subsequent commercial production are produced by the known techniques, such as by batch or continuous tissue culture or culture in vivo in mammals such as mice.
  • the monoclonal antibodies may be labelled with various labels, as exemplified above.
  • the present invention will be described with reference to the use of an enzyme-labelled monoclonal antibody. Examples of enzymes utilised as labels are alkaline phosphatase, glucose oxidase, galactosidase, peroxidase and urease.
  • Such linkage with enzymes can be accomplished by any known method, such as the Staphylococcal Protein A method, the glutaraldehyde method, the benzoquinone method, or the periodate method.
  • testing is carried out employing one of a wide variety of conventional immunoassay methods. The particular method chosen will vary according to the monoclonal antibody and the label chosen.
  • enzyme immunoassays are preferred owing to their low cost, reagent stability, safety, sensitivity and ease of procedure.
  • EIA enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay
  • EIA is a solid-phase assay system which is similar in design to the radiometric assay, but which utilises an enzyme in place of a radioactive isotope as the immunoglobin marker.
  • Fluorescent-immunoassay is based on the labelling of antigen or antibody with fluorescent probes. A non-labelled antigen and a specific antibody are combined with identical fluorescently-labelled antigen. Both labelled and unlabelled antigen compete for antibody binding sites. The amount of labelled antigen bound to the antibody is dependent upon, and therefore a measurement of, the concentration of non-labelled antigen. Examples of this particular type of fluorescent-immunoassay include heterogeneous systems such as Enzyme-Linked Fluorescent Immunoassay, or homogeneous systems such as the Substrate-Labelled Fluorescent Immunoassay. The most suitable fluorescent probe, and the one most widely used, is fluorescein. While fluorescein can be subject to considerable interference from scattering, sensitivity can be increased by the use of a fluorometer optimised for the probe utilised in the particular assay, and in which the effect of scattering can be minimised.
  • Fluorescence polarisation In fluorescence polarisation, a labelled sample is excited with polarised light and the degree of polarisation of the emitted light is measured. As the antigen binds to the antibody, its rotation slows down and the degree of polarisation increases. Fluorescence polarisation is simple, quick and precise. However, at the present time, its sensitivity is limited to the micromole per litre range and upper nanomole per litre range with respect to antigens in biological samples.
  • Luminescence is the emission of light by an atom or molecule as an electron is transferred to the ground state from a higher energy state.
  • the free energy of a chemical reaction provides the energy required to produce an intermediate reaction or product in an electronically-excited state. Subsequent decay back to the ground state is accompanied by emission of light.
  • - Bioluminescence is the name given to a special form of chemiluminescence found in biological systems, in which a catalytic protein or enzyme, such as luciferase, increases the efficiency of the luminescent reaction. The best known chemiluminescent substance is luminol.
  • a further aspect of the present invention is a therapeutic composition
  • a therapeutic composition comprising one or more of the monoclonal antibodies to the particular Shigella antigen or species, as well as a pharmacologically-acceptable carrier or diluent.
  • Such compositions can be used to treat humans and/or animals afflicted with some form of shigellosis and they are used in amounts effective to cure; the amount may vary widely, depending upon the individual being treated and the severity of the infection.
  • One or more of the monoclonal antibodies can be assembled into a diagnostic kit for use in diagnosing for the presence of an antigen, antigens or species of Shigella in various specimens. It is also possible to use the broadly cross-reactive monoclonal antibody which can identify the genus Shigella alone or as part of a kit i containing antibodies that can identify other bacterial genera or species of Shigella and/or other bacteria.
  • conjugated or labelled monoclonal antibodies for antigens and/or species of Shigella and other gram-negative bacteria can be utilised in a kit to identify such antigens and organisms in blood samples taken from patients for the diagnosis of possible
  • the monoclonal test is an advance over existing procedures in-that it is more accurate than existing tests; it gives "same day” results, provides convenience to the patient and improves therapy as a result of early, accurate diagnosis; and it reduces labour costs and laboratory time required for administration of the tests.
  • the kit may be sold individually or included as a component in a comprehensive line of compatible immunoassay reagents sold to reference laboratories to detect the species and serotypes of Shigella.
  • One preferred embodiment of the present invention is a diagnostic kit comprising at least one labelled monoclonal antibody against a particular Shigella antigen or species, as well as any appropriate stains. counterstains or reagents. Further embodiments include kits containing at least one control sample of a Shigella antigen and/or a cross-reactive labelled monoclonal antibody which would detect the presence of any of the given particular Shigella organisms in a particular sample.
  • Monoclonal diagnostics which detect the presence of Shigella antigens can also be used in periodic testing of water sources, food supplies and food processing operations.
  • the present invention describes the use of the labelled monoclonal antibodies to determine the presence of a standard antigen
  • the invention can have many applications in diagnosing the presence of antigens by determining whether specimens, such as urine, blood, stool, water and milk, contain the particular Shigella antigen. More particularly, the invention could be utilised as a public health and safety diagnostic aid, whereby specimens such as water or food could be tested for possible contamination.
