Establishment of CMab-43, a Sensitive and Specific Anti-CD133 Monoclonal Antibody, for Immunohistochemistry.

ABSTRACT: CD133, also known as prominin-1, was first described as a cell surface marker on early progenitor and hematopoietic stem cells. It is a five-domain transmembrane protein composed of an N-terminal extracellular tail, two small cytoplasmic loops, two large extracellular loops containing seven potential glycosylation sites, and a short C-terminal intracellular tail. CD133 has been used as a marker to identify cancer stem cells derived from primary solid tumors and as a prognostic marker of gliomas. Herein, we developed novel anti-CD133 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and characterized their efficacy in flow cytometry, Western blot, and immunohistochemical analyses. We expressed the full length of CD133 in LN229 glioblastoma cells, immunized mice with LN229/CD133 cells, and performed the first screening using flow cytometry. After limiting dilution, we established 100 anti-CD133 mAbs, reacting with LN229/CD133 cells but not with LN229 cells. Subsequently, we performed the second and third screening with Western blot and immunohistochemical analyses, respectively. Among 100 mAbs, 11 strongly reacted with CD133 in Western blot analysis. One of 11 clones, CMab-43 (IgG2a, kappa), showed a sensitive and specific reaction against colon cancer cells, warranting the use of CMab-43 in detecting CD133 in pathological analyses of CD133-expressing cancers.

Project description:Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) remains a globally spreading public health problem. Among Latin America countries, Brazil has the greatest number of recorded CL cases with several Leishmania species being associated with human cases. Laboratory diagnosis is one of the major challenges to disease control due to the low accuracy of parasitological techniques, the restricted use of molecular techniques, and the importance of differential diagnosis with regard to several dermatological and systemic diseases. In response, we have developed and validated an immunohistochemistry (IHC) technique for CL diagnosis using anti-mTXNPx monoclonal antibody (mAb). Recombinant Leishmania-mTXNPx was produced and used as an immunogen for mAb production through the somatic hybridization technique. The viability of mAb labeling of Leishmania amastigotes was tested by IHC performed with skin biopsies from hamsters experimentally infected with Leishmania amazonensis, Leishmania braziliensis, and Leishmania guyanensis. The enzymes horseradish peroxidase (IHC-HRP) and alkaline phosphatase (IHC-AP), both biotin-free polymer detection systems, were used in the standardization step. The IHC was further validated with skin biopsies from 49 CL patients diagnosed by clinical examination and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and from 37 patients presenting other dermatological infectious diseases. Other parasitological techniques, such as direct examination and culture, were also performed for confirmed CL patients. Histopathology and IHC were performed for all included patients. Overall, the highest sensitivity was observed for IHC-AP (85.7%), followed by IHC-HRP (79.6%), direct examination (77.6%), histopathological examination (HE; 65.3%), and in vitro culture (49%). Only IHC and HE presented specificity over 90% and were able to detect CL patients regardless of parasite burden (odds ratio > 1.94; 95%CI: 0.34-11.23). A significant increase in positivity rates was observed when IHC-AP was combined with direct examination (95.9%) and HE (93.9%). The IHC techniques evaluated in here detected the main Leishmania species causing CL in Brazil and can support diagnostic strategies for controlling this neglected disease, especially if used in combination with other approaches for an integrative laboratorial diagnosis.
