Summary for Patent: 5,093,261
Title: Cancer-related antigen-specific human immunoglobulins and human/human hybridomas having the ability to produce said human immunoglobulins
Abstract:A new human/human fused cell clone derived from human B cells having the ability to produce immunoglobulins and human B cells substantially lacking the ability to produce immunoglobulins, antigen-specific human immunoglobulins produced by the human/human fused cell clone, and a method of producing the human immunoglobulins. More specifically, a human/human hybridoma having the ability to produce antigen-specific human immunoglobulins, which is a human/human fused cell strain derived from human B cells of a human patient with liver cancer and a subclone of a human lymphoblast cell strain; and antigen-specific human immunoglobulins produced by the human/human fused cell strain.
Inventor(s): Hagiwara; Hideaki (Kasai-shi, Hyogo-ken, JP), Nagao; Junzo (Kasai, JP)
Assignee: Hagiwara; Yoshihide (Kasai, JP) Hagiwara; Hideaki (Kasai, JP)
Application Number:07/196,610
Patent Claims:1. The antigen-specific human immunoglobulin which is produced by human/human hybridoma TOH/B9 FERM BP-1883 and which has the following biochemical properties:

(a) it is human immunoglobulin (IgA), and

(b) it specifically binds to human cell line PLC/PRF/5 (Alexander cells) derived from human liver cancer.

2. The antigen-specific human immunoglobulin which is produced by human/human hybridoma TOH/D5 FERM BP-1882 and which has the following biochemical properties:

(a) it is human immunoglobulin G (IgG), and

(b) it specifically binds to human cell line PLC/PRF/5 (Alexander cells) or a human liver cancer tissue.

3. A human/human hybridoma TOH/B9 FERM BP-1883 which produces antigen-specific human immunoglobulin, said hybridoma being a human/human fused cell strain derived from a human B cell taken from a human patient with liver cancer and a subclone of a human lymphoblast cell strain.

4. A human/human hybridoma TOH/D5 FERM-BP-1882 which produces antigen-specific human immunoglobulin, said hybridoma being a human/human fused cell strain derived from a human B cell taken from a human patient with liver cancer and a subclone of a human lymphoblast cell strain.

5. The human/human hybridoma of claim 3 which has the following cytobiochemical properties (1) to (5):

(1) it secretes (produces) a human immunoglobulin A (IgA),

(2) it has a doubling time of about 37 hours,

(3) it has a DNA content about twice as large as that of a normal human lymphocyte,

(4) the IgA mentioned in (1) above shows bindability to human cell line PLC/PRF/5 (Alexander cells) (derived from human liver cancer), and

(5) it can be divided and proliferated in a medium containing hypoxanthine, amethopterin, thymidine and ouabain.

6. The human/human hybridoma of claim 4 which has the following cytobiochemical properties (1) to (5):

(1) it secretes (produces a human immunoglobulin G (IgG),

(2) it has a doubling time of about 37 hours,

(3) it has a DNA content about twice as large as that of a normal human lymphocyte,

(4) the IgG mentioned in (1) above shows bindability to human cell line PLC/PRF/5 (Alexander cells) or a human liver cancer tissue, and

(5) it can be divided and proliferated in a medium containing hypoxanthine, amethopterin, thymidine and ouabain.

7. The antigen-specific human immunoglobulin of claim 4 or 5, wherein said immunoglobulin is bound to an agent selected from the group consisting of a chemotherapeutic agent, interferon, high-molecular weight toxin, anti-cancer drug-containing liposome, and radioactive x-ray sensitive agent.
