Problems solved by technology

IgE is a member of the immunoglobulin family that mediates allergic responses such as asthma, food allergies, type 1 hypersensitivity and the familiar sinus inflammation allergic rhinitis and conjunctivitis, and as a result, causes widespread suffering throughout the general population.
However, notwithstanding what has been reported, the mechanism by which anti-CD23 antibodies modulate IgE expression and in particular, the manner by which they block IL-4 ind

Production of Primate Anti-CD23 Antibodies

[0064] Five primate monoclonal antibodies specific to CD23 were isolated from macaques substantially according to the methodology disclosed in Ser. No. 08 / 379,072, which has been incorporated by reference herein. The exact techniques utilized are described in detail below.

Methodology for Isolation and Characterization of Anti-Human CD23 Monoclonal Antibodies

Purification of the Immunogen sCD23 from 8866 Cells

[0065] During purification, soluble CD23 (sCD23 ) was quantified by a three-step ELISA using a murine anti-CD23 antibody (Binding Site; catalog #MC112) as a capture. The antigen was partially purified from cultures of 8866 cells maintained in suspension bioreactors using RPMI 1640 (JRH Biosciences; catalog #56-509) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (JRH Biosciences) and 4 mM glutamine (JRH Biosciences; catalog #90114) at 37° C. Carbon dioxide was used to maintain pH 7.1. After removing cells by 0.45 μm filtration, phenylmethyl...

Antibody Purification by Protein A

Procedure

[0253] The culture supernatant is centrifuged to remove cells and debris. The centrifuge is then filtered through a 0.2 μm filter. A protein A sepharose Fast flow column (recombinant protein A Sepharose Fast floe) (Pharmacia Biotech Catalog #71-5000-09...

example 2

[0262] To confirm our hypothesis as to the involvement of the Fc effector portion in IgE inhibition of anti-human CD23 antibodies, a third primate antibody, designated 2C8, also shown to inhibit IgE in in vitro) was converted to a F(ab′)2. IgE inhibitory activity was determined using the same IL-4 / IgE assay described previously.

[0263] The following materials were used in this example.

[0264] ImmunoPure F(ab′)2 Preparation Kit (Pierce Catalog #44888)

[0265] digestion buffer: 20 mM sodium acetate buffer, pH 4.5

Abstract

Methods for inhibiting IgE production in a human subject using anti-CD23 antibodies.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to monoclonal antibodies containing human gamma-1 constant domains which specifically bind human CD23, the low affinity receptor for IgE (FceRII / CD23) and their usage as therapeutic agents. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] IgE is a member of the immunoglobulin family that mediates allergic responses such as asthma, food allergies, type 1 hypersensitivity and the familiar sinus inflammation allergic rhinitis and conjunctivitis, and as a result, causes widespread suffering throughout the general population. IgE is secreted by, and expressed on the surface of, B-cells. IgE synthesized by B-cells can be anchored in the B-cell membrane by a short transmembrane domain linked to the mature IgE sequence. Membrane and secreted versions of IgE are formed in the same cell by differential splicing of the IgE RNA transcript. [0003] IgE also can be bound to B-cells (and T cells, monocytes, Langerhans cells, follicular dendritic cells, ...
