Role of a mouse monoclonal IgE antibody in passive transfer of immunity to Schistosoma japonicum infection

Abstract: We have been able to produce a mouse monoclonal IgE antibody specific to an adult worm antigen extracted from Schistosoma japonicum (Sj). The antibody was able to elicit passive cutaneous anaphylaxis in the rat skin against Sj with the highest titer of 1:256,000 but did not cross-react with S. mansoni antigen. The antibody recognized a 97-kDa molecule expressed on the surface of mechanically transformed schistosoma of S. japonicum. Passive transfer of the antibody into mice in the early stage of challenge infe… Show more

“…Of them, paramyosin, a 97 kDa myofibrillar protein, can induce effective anti-infective immune protection (21). Previous study showed monoclonal anti-paramyosin antibody conferred good protection against Schistosoma japonicum in mice (22). A recent study showed that the recombinant paramyosin protein also conferred significant levels of protection against S. japonicum infection in water buffalo (19).…”

“…On the other hand, mice vaccinated intradermally with S. mansoni or schistosomula extracts with Mycobacterium Bovis BCG adjuvant were significantly protected against subsequent infection, and antibodies predominantly recognized paramyosin (Lanar et al 1986;Sher et al 1986). In addition, a BALB c/C3H HFl mouse monoclonal IgE antibody recognized S. japonicum paramyosin (Nara et al 1997), and showed protection (19-58%) against cercarial infection following passive transfer (Kojima et al 1987a;. Conversely, paramyosin immunogen failed to confer the same level of protection in multi-antigen DNA-based form (Tang et al 2008).…”

“…A hybridoma that produces a monoclonal IgE antibody to S. japonicum, SJ18ε.1, was identified [57]. This mAb was protective in an in vitro, antigen-dependent, cellular cytotoxicity assay with rat macrophages or eosinophils and also in vivo during the early phase of infection [57][58][59]. It recognizes a 97 kDa antigen, Sm-97 (Schistosoma mansoni-97), identified as paramyosin, a muscle protein unique to invertebrates [75,76].…”
