Human lymphoblastoid cell line producing specific antibody against Rh-antigen D

Scandinavian Journal of Immunology

Abstract

A lymphoblastoid cell line producing specific anti-Rh antibody against D determinant was established by Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. The lymphocytes were from an immunized male donor with high titre of anti-D antibody. The cells were preselected by rosetting them with Rh-positive erythrocytes before EBV infection. The cell line produced specific antibody of IgG class, namely IgG1 subclass, but it also produced nonspecific IgM and IgG. By rerosetting the cell line, the specific antibody-producing population could be enriched and the antibody titre increased in the culture supernatant to the level of immune sera.

Antibody Specificity

Antibodies produced by B cells are highly specific for antigen as a result of random gene recombination and somatic hypermutation and affinity maturation. As the main effector of the humoral immune system, antibodies can neutralize foreign cells. Find the latest research on antibody specificity here.
