Abstract
A cell-surface ectonucleotidase CD39 mediates the conversion of extracellular adenosine triphosphate into immunosuppressive adenosine with another ectonucleotidase CD73. The elevated adenosine in the tumor microenvironment attenuates antitumor immunity, which promotes tumor cell immunologic escape and progression. Anti-CD39 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), which suppress the enzymatic activity, can be applied to antitumor therapy. Therefore, an understanding of the relationship between the inhibitory activity and epitope of mAbs is important. We previously established an anti-mouse CD39 (anti-mCD39) mAb, C39Mab-1 using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening method. In this study, we determined the critical epitope of C39Mab-1 using flow cytometry. We performed the PA tag (12 amino acids [aa])-substituted analysis (named PA scanning) and RIEDL tag (5 aa)-substituted analysis (named RIEDL scanning) to determine the critical epitope of C39Mab-1 using flow cytometry. By the combination of PA scanning and RIEDL scanning, we identified the conformational epitope, spanning three segments of 275-279, 282-291, and 306-323 aa of mCD39. These analyses would contribute to the identification of the conformational epitope of membrane proteins.

Abstract
The giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) is one of the important species in worldwide animal conservation. Because it is essential to understand the disease of giant panda for conservation, histopathological analyses of tissues are important to understand the pathogenesis. However, monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against giant panda-derived proteins are limited. Podoplanin (PDPN) is an essential marker of lung type I alveolar epithelial cells, kidney podocytes, and lymphatic endothelial cells. PDPN is also overexpressed in various human tumors, which are associated with poor prognosis. Here, an anti-giant panda PDPN (gpPDPN) mAb, PMab-314 (mouse IgG1, kappa) was established using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening method. PMab-314 recognized N-terminal PA16-tagged gpPDPN-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary-K1 cells (CHO/PA16-gpPDPN) in flow cytometry. The KD value of PMab-314 for CHO/PA16-gpPDPN was determined as 1.3 × 10-8 M. Furthermore, PMab-314 is useful for detecting gpPDPN in western blot analysis. These findings indicate that PMab-314 is a useful tool for the analyses of gpPDPN-expressed cells.

Abstract
CD39 is involved in adenosine metabolism by converting extracellular ATP to adenosine. As extracellular adenosine plays a critical role in the immune suppression of the tumor microenvironment, the inhibition of CD39 activity by monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is one of the important strategies for tumor therapy. This study developed specific and sensitive mAbs for mouse CD39 (mCD39) using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening method. The established anti-mCD39 mAb, C39Mab-1 (rat IgG2a, kappa), reacted with mCD39-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary-K1 (CHO/mCD39) by flow cytometry. The kinetic analysis using flow cytometry indicated that the dissociation constant of C39Mab-1 for CHO/mCD39 was 7.3 × 10-9 M. Furthermore, C39Mab-1 detected the lysate of CHO/mCD39 by western blot analysis. These results indicated that C39Mab-1 is useful for the detection of mCD39 in many functional studies.

Abstract
Immunohistochemistry staining is an essential method in pathological diagnoses. Podoplanin (PDPN) is a specific maker of alveolar epithelium, lymphatic vessels, and glomeruli. In this study, we established a novel anti-giraffe PDPN (girPDPN) mAb, PMab-301, using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening (CBIS) method. PMab-301 (mouse IgG1, kappa) detected girPDPN in various applications, such as flow cytometry, western blot, and immunohistochemistry. PMab-301 specifically stained type-I alveolar cells using formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded giraffe lung tissues. Our findings suggest the potential usefulness of PMab-301 for the pathophysiological analyses of giraffe tissues.

Abstract
The erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular carcinoma (Eph) receptors are the largest receptor tyrosine kinase family. EphB4 is essential for cell adhesion and motility during embryogenesis. Pathologically, EphB4 is overexpressed and contributes to poor prognosis in various tumors. Therefore, specific monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) should be developed to predict the prognosis for multiple tumors with high EphB4 expression, including breast and gastric cancers. This study aimed to develop specific anti-EphB4 mAbs for multiple applications using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening method. EphB4-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-K1 (CHO/EphB4) cells were immunized into mice, and we established an anti-EphB4 mAb (clone B4Mab-7), which is applicable for flow cytometry, Western blot, and immunohistochemistry (IHC). B4Mab-7 reacted with endogenous EphB4-positive breast cancer cell line, MCF-7, but did not react with EphB4-knockout MCF-7 (BINDS-52) in flow cytometry. Dissociation constant (KD) values were determined to be 2.9 × 10-9 M and 1.3 × 10-9 M by flow cytometric analysis for CHO/EphB4 and MCF-7 cells, respectively. B4Mab-7 detected the EphB4 protein bands from breast cancer cells in Western blot, and stained breast cancer tissues in IHC. Altogether, B4Mab-7 is very useful for detecting EphB4 in various applications.

Abstract
Golden (Syrian) hamster (Mesocricetus auratus) is a small animal model of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections. Pathological analyses of the tissues are required to understand the pathogenesis of SARS-CoV-2 and the evaluation of therapeutic modalities, including neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). However, mAbs that recognize the golden hamster-derived antigens and distinguish specific cell types, such as the pneumocytes, are limited. Podoplanin (PDPN) is an essential marker of lung type I alveolar epithelial cells, kidney podocytes, and lymphatic endothelial cells. In this study, an anti-Chinese hamster (Cricetulus griseus) PDPN mAb PMab-281 (IgG3, kappa) was established using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening (CBIS) method. A defucosylated mouse IgG2a version of PMab-281 (281-mG2a-f) was also developed. The 281-mG2a-f strongly recognized both the Chinese hamster and the golden hamster PDPN using flow cytometry and could detect lung type I alveolar epithelial cells, lymphatic endothelial cells, and Bowman's capsules in the kidney from the golden hamster using immunohistochemistry. These results suggest the usefulness of 281-mG2a-f for analyzing the golden hamster-derived tissues and cells for SARS-CoV-2 research.

Abstract
Immune checkpoint molecules have received attention as targets of cancer immunotherapy. Killer cell lectin-like receptor subfamily G member 1 (KLRG1) is one of the immune checkpoint molecules expressed in CD4+ T, CD8+ T, and natural killer (NK) cells. KLRG1 exhibits antiviral and antitumor immunity, and its expression in T and NK cells is upregulated by viral infectious diseases and some tumors. Thus, monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for KLRG1 would be useful tools for the diagnosis and immunotherapy against viral infectious diseases and cancers. We have developed anti-human KLRG1 (hKLRG1) mAb (clone KLMab-1, mouse IgG1, kappa) by the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening method. We have also demonstrated that KLMab-1 recognizes both exogenous and endogenous hKLRG1 in flow cytometry. In this study, we first showed that KLMab-1 and its recombinant mAb (recKLMab-1) bound to exogenous hKLRG1 overexpressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-K1 cells, but not in parental CHO-K1 cells, in immunocytochemistry. We next showed that both mAbs detected endogenous hKLRG1 expressed in human NK cells. These results demonstrate that KLMab-1 and recKLMab-1 are available for immunocytochemistry.

Abstract
Podoplanin (PDPN) is an essential marker of lung type I alveolar cells, kidney podocytes, and lymphatic endothelial cells. Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) that can specifically recognize PDPN in immunohistochemistry are important to analyze the development of tissues and the pathogenesis of diseases, including cancers. We have developed anti-PDPN mAbs against many animal species; however, mAbs that can recognize elephant-derived membrane proteins and distinguish the specific cell types in immunohistochemistry are limited. In this study, a novel anti-elephant PDPN (elePDPN) mAb, PMab-295 (IgG1, kappa), was established using the peptide immunization method. PMab-295 recognized both elePDPN-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-K1 cells and endogenous elePDPN-expressed LACF-NaNaI cells by flow cytometry and western blotting. Kinetic analyses using flow cytometry showed that the KD of PMab-295 for CHO/elePDPN was 1.5 × 10-8 M. Furthermore, PMab-295 detected elePDPN-expressing cells using immunohistochemistry. These results showed the usefulness of PMab-295 to investigate the molecular function of elePDPN and the pathogenesis of diseases.

Abstract
The epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) is a cell surface glycoprotein, which is widely expressed on normal and cancer cells. EpCAM is involved in cell adhesion, proliferation, survival, stemness, and tumorigenesis. Therefore, EpCAM is thought to be a promising target for cancer diagnosis and therapy. In this study, we established anti-EpCAM monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening (CBIS) method. We characterized them using flow cytometry, Western blotting, and immunohistochemistry. One of the established recombinant anti-EpCAM mAbs, recEpMab-37 (mouse IgG1, kappa), reacted with EpCAM-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary-K1 cells (CHO/EpCAM) or a colorectal carcinoma cell line (Caco-2). In contrast, recEpMab-37 did not react with EpCAM-knocked out Caco-2 cells. The KD of recEpMab-37 for CHO/EpCAM and Caco-2 was 2.0 × 10−8 M and 3.2 × 10−8 M, respectively. We observed that EpCAM amino acids between 144 to 164 are involved in recEpMab-37 binding. In Western blot analysis, recEpMab-37 detected the EpCAM of CHO/EpCAM and Caco-2 cells. Furthermore, recEpMab-37 could stain formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded colorectal carcinoma tissues by immunohistochemistry. Taken together, recEpMab-37, established by the CBIS method, is useful for detecting EpCAM in various applications.

Abstract
Chinese hamster (Cricetulus griseus) and golden hamster (Mesocricetus auratus) are important animal models of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections, which affect several organs, including respiratory tract, lung, and kidney. Podoplanin (PDPN) is a marker of lung type I alveolar cells, kidney podocytes, and lymphatic endothelial cells. The development of anti-PDPN monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for these animals is essential to evaluate the pathogenesis by SARS-CoV-2 infections. Using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening method, we previously developed an anti-Chinese hamster PDPN (ChamPDPN) mAb, PMab-281 (mouse IgG3, kappa), and further changed its subclass into IgG2a (281-mG2a-f), both of which can recognize not only ChamPDPN but also golden hamster PDPN (GhamPDPN) by flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry. In this study, we examined the critical epitope of 281-mG2a-f, using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) with synthesized peptides. First, we performed ELISA with peptides derived from ChamPDPN and GhamPDPN extracellular domain, and found that 281-mG2a-f reacted with the peptides, which commonly possess the KIPFEELxT sequence. Next, we analyzed the reaction with the alanine-substituted mutants, and revealed that 281-mG2a-f did not recognize the alanine-substituted peptides of I75A, F77A, and E79A of ChamPDPN. Furthermore, these peptides could not inhibit the recognition of 281-mG2a-f to ChamPDPN-expressing cells by flow cytometry. The results indicate that the binding epitope of 281-mG2a-f includes Ile75, Phe77, and Glu79 of ChamPDPN, which are shared with GhamPDPN.

Abstract
T cell immunoglobulin and immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif domain (TIGIT) is one of the immune checkpoint molecules. TIGIT is expressed in T or natural killer (NK) cells and is upregulated in several cancers. Because TIGIT suppresses the antitumor activity of the T or NK cells by binding to its ligand, such as CD155, CD112, and CD113, TIGIT can be a molecular marker or a therapeutic target for cancer immunotherapy. We previously developed an anti-human TIGIT (hTIGIT) monoclonal antibody (mAb; clone TgMab-2; mouse IgG1, kappa) by the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening method. TgMab-2 binds to hTIGIT with high binding affinity in flow cytometry. In this study, we investigated the availability of TgMab-2 and its recombinant mAb (recTgMab-2) in immunocytochemistry. We found that TgMab-2 and recTgMab-2 bind to hTIGIT-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-K1 cells, but not parental CHO-K1 cells, indicating that both mAbs specifically recognize hTIGIT. Furthermore, both mAbs recognized endogenous hTIGIT expressed in human NK cells in immunocytochemistry. These results demonstrate that TgMab-2 and recTgMab-2 are applicable for immunocytochemistry against hTIGIT.

Abstract
The CXC chemokine receptor 6 (CXCR6) is a member of the G protein-coupled receptor family that is highly expressed in helper T type 1 cells, natural killer cells, cytotoxic T lymphocytes, and various type of cells in tumor microenvironment (TME). CXCR6 has been proposed as a therapeutic target against tumors through regulation of the tumor TME. In this study, we developed specific and sensitive monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for mouse CXCR6 (mCXCR6), which are useful for flow cytometry and Western blotting by N-terminal peptide immunization into rat. The established anti-mCXCR6 mAb, Cx6Mab-1 (rat IgG1, kappa), reacted with not only mCXCR6-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary-K1 (CHO/mCXCR6) but also mCXCR6-endogenously expressed cell lines, such as P388 (mouse lymphoid neoplasm) and J774-1 (mouse macrophage-like) through flow cytometry. Kinetic analyses using flow cytometry indicated that the dissociation constants (KD) of Cx6Mab-1 for CHO/mCXCR6, P388, and J774-1 cells were 1.7 × 10-9 M, 3.4 × 10-7 M, and 3.8 × 10-7 M, respectively. Furthermore, Cx6Mab-1 could detect endogenous mCXCR6 in P388 and J774-1 cells by Western blotting. These results indicated that Cx6Mab-1 is useful for detecting mCXCR6 by flow cytometry and Western blotting, and provides a possibility for targeting CXCR6-expressing cells in vivo experiments.

Abstract
Ferrets (Mustela putorius furo) have been used as small animal models to investigate severe acute respiratory syndrome coronaviruses (SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2) infections. Pathological analyses of these tissue samples, including those of the lung, are, therefore, essential to understand the pathogenesis of SARS-CoVs and evaluate the action of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against this disease. However, mAbs that recognize ferret-derived proteins and distinguish between specific cell types, such as lung epithelial cells, are limited. Podoplanin (PDPN) has been identified as an essential marker in lung type I alveolar epithelial cells, kidney podocytes, and lymphatic endothelial cells. In this study, an anti-ferret PDPN (ferPDPN) mAb PMab-292 (mouse IgG1, kappa) was established using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening (CBIS) method. PMab-292 recognized ferPDPN-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary-K1 (CHO/ferPDPN) cells by flow cytometry and Western blotting. The kinetic analysis using flow cytometry showed that the KD of PMab-292 for CHO/ferPDPN was 3.4 × 10-8 M. Furthermore, PMab-292 detected lung type I alveolar epithelial cells, lymphatic endothelial cells, and glomerular/Bowman's capsule in the kidney using immunohistochemistry. Hence, these results propose the usefulness of PMab-292 in analyzing ferret-derived tissues for SARS-CoV-2 research.

Abstract
The CC chemokine receptor type-4 (CCR4) belongs to the G-protein-coupled receptor superfamily, expressed on the cell surface of T cells and its malignancy. Two CCR4 ligands (CCL17 and CCL22) bind to CCR4 that mediate physiological and pathological functions of T cell immune responses. Anti-CCR4 monoclonal antibody (mAb) mogamulizumab is approved for adult T cell leukemia/lymphoma and cutaneous T cell lymphomas. In addition, mogamulizumab can deplete regulatory T cells, implying the application to solid tumors as an immunomodulator. Therefore, the development of sensitive mAbs for CCR4 has been desired for basic research, diagnosis, and therapy. In this study, a specific, and sensitive anti-mouse CCR4 (mCCR4) mAb, C4Mab-1 (rat IgG1, kappa), was established using N-terminal peptide immunization. C4Mab-1 reacted with mCCR4-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-K1 cells, P388 (mouse lymphoid neoplasm), and J774-1 (mouse macrophage-like) cells in flow cytometry. Kinetic analyses using flow cytometry showed that KDs of C4Mab-1 for CHO/mCCR4, P388, and J774-1 cells were 4.2 × 10-9 M, 5.4 × 10-7 M, and 1.1 × 10-6 M, respectively. C4Mab-1 could be a valuable tool for elucidating mCCR4-related biological responses.

Abstract
The CC chemokine receptor type-2 (CCR2) belongs to the G-protein-coupled receptor superfamily, expressed on the cell surface of immune cells and tumors. CCR2 binds to the CC motif chemokine 2/monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, a CC chemokine, which is produced by various cells, including immune-related cells and tumors. Therefore, the development of sensitive monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for CCR2 has been desired for treatment and diagnosis. This study established a novel, specific, and sensitive anti-mouse CCR2 (mCCR2) mAb; C2Mab-6 (rat IgG1, kappa), using the mCCR2 synthetic peptide immunization method. C2Mab-6 reacted with mCCR2-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary-K1 cells and L1210 (murine leukemia) cells, which express endogenous mCCR2 in flow cytometry. Furthermore, C2Mab-6 showed a high binding affinity for both cells. Hence, C2Mab-6 can be a useful tool for analyzing mCCR2-related biological responses, using flow cytometry.

Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) that specifically target podoplanin (PDPN), a marker for type I alveolar cells, are required for immunohistochemical analyses. Anti-PDPN mAbs are available for many species, including human, mouse, rat, rabbit, dog, cat, bovine, pig, Tasmanian devil, alpaca, tiger, whale, goat, horse, bear, sheep, and California sea lion PDPNs. However, no anti-Steller sea lion PDPN (stePDPN) antibody has been developed. Immunohistochemical analysis showed that an anti-California sea lion PDPN mAb (PMab-269) reacted with type I alveolar cells from the Steller sea lion lung, renal glomeruli and Bowman's capsules from kidney, and lymphatic endothelial cells from the colon, indicating that PMab-269 is useful for detecting stePDPN.

Abstract
Podoplanin (PDPN) plays an important role in the development of many normal tissues and is expressed in various cancers. We have previously developed multiple monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against PDPNs from a variety of animal species and characterized each of these PDPNs using the anti-PDPN mAbs. In this study, we evaluated whether these anti-PDPN mAbs possess cross-reactivity with ferret PDPN (ferPDPN) using flow cytometry. Comprehensive analysis using 17 differing anti-PDPN mAbs available for immunohistochemistry use, demonstrated that the anti-bear PDPN mAb (clone PMab-241) strongly cross-reacts with ferPDPN-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary-K1 (CHO/ferPDPN) cells. Immunohistochemistry analysis demonstrated intense PMab-241 staining within Bowman's capsules and glomeruli of the ferret kidney, and lymphatic endothelial cells of the ferret lung. These results demonstrate that PMab-241 is suitable for the detection of PDPN in ferret tissues.

Abstract
CC chemokine receptor 9 (CCR9) belongs to the beta chemokine receptor family and is mainly distributed on the surface of immature T lymphocytes and enterocytes. This receptor is highly expressed in rheumatoid arthritis, colitis, type 2 diabetes, and various tumors. Therefore, more sensitive monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) need to be developed to predict the prognosis of many high CCR9 expression diseases. Because CCR9 is a structurally unstable G protein-coupled receptor, it has been difficult to develop anti-CCR9 mAbs using the traditional method. This study developed anti-human CCR9 (hCCR9) mAbs for flow cytometry using a Cell-Based Immunization and Screening (CBIS) method. Two mice were immunized with hCCR9-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-K1 cells (CHO/hCCR9), and hybridomas showing strong signals from CHO/hCCR9 and no signals from CHO-K1 cells were selected by flow cytometry. We established an anti-hCCR9 mAb, C9Mab-1 (IgG1, kappa), which detected hCCR9 in MOLT-4 leukemia T lymphoblast cells and CHO/hCCR9 cells by flow cytometry. Our study showed that an anti-hCCR9 mAb was developed more rapidly by the CBIS method than the previous method.

Abstract
The development of specific antibodies is essential to understand a wide variety of biological phenomena and pathophysiological analyses. Podoplanin (PDPN), a type I transmembrane glycoprotein, is known as a diagnostic marker. Anti-PDPN monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against many species, such as human, mouse, rat, rabbit, dog, bovine, cat, tiger, horse, pig, goat, alpaca, Tasmanian devil, bear, whale, and sheep, have been established in recent studies. However, sensitive and specific mAbs against elephant PDPN (elePDPN) have not been established. Thus, this study established a novel mAb against African savanna elephant (Loxodonta africana) PDPN using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening method. elePDPN-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary-K1 (CHO/elePDPN) cells were immunized, and mAbs were screened against elePDPN using flow cytometry. One of the mAbs, PMab-265 (IgM, κ), specifically detected CHO/elePDPN cells by flow cytometry. These findings suggested the potential usefulness of PMab-265 for the functional analyses of elePDPN.

Abstract
The development of protein-specific antibodies is essential for understanding a wide variety of biological phenomena. Parasitic and viral infections and cancers are known to occur within California sea lion (Zalophus californianus) populations. However, sensitive and specific monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for the pathophysiological analysis of California sea lion tissues have not yet been developed. A type I transmembrane glycoprotein, podoplanin (PDPN), is a known diagnostic marker of lymphatic endothelial cells. We have previously developed several anti-PDPN mAbs in various mammalian species, with applications in flow cytometry, Western blotting, and immunohistochemistry. In this study, we established a novel mAb against California sea lion PDPN (seaPDPN), clone PMab-269 (mouse IgG1, kappa), using a Cell-Based Immunization and Screening method. PMab-269 is specifically detected in seaPDPN-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-K1 cells using flow cytometry and Western blotting. Moreover, PMab-269 clearly identified pulmonary type I alveolar cells, renal podocytes, and colon lymphatic endothelial cells in California sea lion tissues using immunohistochemistry. These findings demonstrate the usefulness of PMab-269 for the pathophysiological analysis of lung, kidney, and lymphatic tissues of the California sea lion.

Abstract
TROP2 is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein originally identified in human trophoblast cells that is overexpressed in several types of cancer. To better understand the role of TROP2 in cancer, we herein aimed to develop a sensitive and specific anti-TROP2 monoclonal antibody (mAb) for use in flow cytometry, Western blot, and immunohistochemistry using a Cell-Based Immunization and Screening (CBIS) method. Two mice were immunized with N-terminal PA-tagged and C-terminal RAP/MAP-tagged TROP2-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-K1 cells (CHO/PA-TROP2-RAP-MAP), and hybridomas showing strong signals from PA-tagged TROP2-overexpressed CHO-K1 cells (CHO/TROP2-PA) and weak-to-no signals from CHO-K1 cells were selected using flow cytometry. We demonstrated using flow cytometry that the established anti-TROP2 mAb, TrMab-29 (mouse IgG1 kappa), detected TROP2 in MCF7 breast cancer cell line as well as CHO/TROP2-PA cells. Western blot analysis showed a 40 kDa band in lysates prepared from both CHO/TROP2-PA and MCF7 cells. Furthermore, TROP2 was strongly detected by immunohistochemical analysis using TrMab-29, indicating that TrMab-29 may be a valuable tool for the detection of TROP2 in cancer.

A cancer-specific anti-podocalyxin monoclonal antibody (60-mG 2a-f) exerts antitumor effects in mouse xenograft models of pancreatic carcinoma. Biochem Biophys Rep 2020; 24:100826. [PMID: 33088928 PMCID: PMC7559861 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrep.2020.100826] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2020] [Revised: 09/22/2020] [Accepted: 10/07/2020] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Overexpression of podocalyxin (PODXL) is associated with progression, metastasis, and poor outcomes in several cancers. PODXL also plays an important role in the development of normal tissues. For antibody-based therapy to target PODXL-expressing cancers using monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), cancer-specificity is necessary to reduce the risk of adverse effects to normal tissues. In this study, we developed an anti-PODXL cancer-specific mAb (CasMab), named as PcMab-60 (IgM, kappa) by immunizing mice with soluble PODXL, which is overexpressed in LN229 glioblastoma cells. The PcMab-60 reacted with the PODXL-overexpressing LN229 (LN229/PODXL) cells and MIA PaCa-2 pancreatic cancer cells in flow cytometry but did not react with normal vascular endothelial cells (VECs), whereas one of non-CasMabs, PcMab-47 showed high reactivity for not only LN229/PODXL and MIA PaCa-2 cells but also VECs, indicating that PcMab-60 is a CasMab. Next, we engineered PcMab-60 into a mouse IgG2a-type mAb, named as 60-mG2a, to add antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). We further developed a core fucose-deficient type of 60-mG2a, named as 60-mG2a-f, to augment its ADCC activity. In vivo analysis revealed that 60-mG2a-f exerted antitumor activity in MIA PaCa-2 xenograft models at a dose of 100 μg/mouse/week administered three times. These results suggested that 60-mG2a-f could be useful for antibody-based therapy against PODXL-expressing pancreatic cancers. PODXL is associated with poor outcomes in several cancers. We developed an anti-PODXL cancer-specific mAb (PcMab-60). A core fucose-deficient IgG2a type of PcMab-60 (60-mG2a-f) exerted antitumor activity in MIA PaCa-2 xenograft models. 60-mG2a-f could be useful for antibody-based therapy against PODXL-expressing pancreatic cancers.

Abstract
Anti-podoplanin (PDPN) monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are needed as markers for lymphatic endothelial cells or type I alveolar cells in immunohistochemical analyses. We have developed anti-PDPN mAbs for many species, including humans, mice, rats, rabbits, dogs, cats, bovines, pigs, Tasmanian devils, alpacas, tigers, whales, goats, horses, and bears. This study develops and characterizes anti-sheep PDPN (sPDPN) mAbs using Cell-Based Immunization and Screening (CBIS) method. A RAP14 tag was added to the N-terminus of sPDPN, and an anti-RAP14 tag mAb (PMab-2) was used to measure the expression level of sPDPN in flow cytometry and Western blots. We immunized mice with sPDPN-overexpressing Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-K1 (CHO/sPDPN) cells and screened mAbs against sPDPN using flow cytometry. Two of the mAbs, PMab-253 (immunoglobulin M [IgM], kappa) and PMab-260 (IgM, kappa), detected CHO/sPDPN cells specifically using flow cytometry and Western blots. Both PMab-253 and PMab-260 stained the renal glomerulus and Bowman's capsule, lymphatic endothelial cells of the lung and colon, and type I alveolar cells of the lung, suggesting PMab-253 and PMab-260, which were developed by CBIS method, can be applied to functional analyses of sPDPN. We also determined the binding epitope of PMab-253 and PMab-260 using flow cytometry. Analysis of sPDPN deletion mutants revealed that the N-terminus of the PMab-253 and PMab-260 epitope exists between amino acids 110 and 115 of sPDPN. Analysis of sPDPN point mutations revealed that the critical epitope of PMab-253 and PMab-260 includes Thr112 and Ser113 of sPDPN, indicating that the PMab-253 and PMab-260 epitope are independent of the platelet aggregation-stimulating (PLAG) domain or the PLAG-like domain of sPDPN.

Abstract
CD20 is one of several B-lymphocyte antigens that has been shown to be an effective target for the detection and treatment of B-cell lymphomas. Sensitive and specific monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are required for every application used for the diagnosis of B-cell lymphoma. Although many anti-CD20 mAbs have been established, the types of applications, those anti-CD20 can be used in, are limited. In this study, we aimed to establish novel anti-CD20 mAbs to be used for broad applications, such as flow cytometry, western blot, and immunohistochemical analyses, using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening (CBIS) method. One of the established mAbs, C20Mab-11 (IgM, kappa), detected overexpression of CD20 in CHO-K1 or LN229 cell lines, indicating that C20Mab-11 is specific for CD20. In western blot analyses, C20Mab-11 detected not only overexpression of CD20 in CHO-K1 or LN229 cell lines, but also CD20 of BALL-1 and Raji cells with both sensitivity and specificity. Furthermore, C20Mab-11 strongly stained B cells of the lymph follicle and B cell lymphomas in immunohistochemical analyses. These results indicate that C20Mab-11 develped by CBIS method, is useful for the detection of CD20 in lymphoma tissues by flow cytometry, western blot, and immunohistochemical analyses and potentially could be beneficial for the treatment of B cell lymphomas.

Abstract
The advancements in technology and manufacturing processes have allowed the development of new derivatives, biosimilar or advanced improved versions for approved antibodies each year for treatment regimen. There are more than 700 antibody-based molecules that are in different stages of phase I/II/ III clinical trials targeting new unique targets. To date, approximately more than 80 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have been approved. A total of 7 novel antibody therapeutics had been granted the first approval either in the United States or European Union in the year 2019, representing approximately 20% of the total number of approved drugs. Most of these licenced mAbs or their derivatives are either of hybridoma origin or their improvised engineered versions. Even with the recent development of high throughput mAb generation technologies, hybridoma is the most favoured method due to its indigenous nature to preserve natural cognate antibody pairing information and preserves innate functions of immune cells. The recent advent of antibody engineering technology has superseded the species level barriers and has shown success in isolation of hybridoma across phylogenetically distinct species. This has led to the isolation of monoclonal antibodies against human targets that are conserved and non-immunogenic in the rodent. In this review, we have discussed in detail about hybridoma technology, its expansion towards different animal species, the importance of antibodies isolated from different animal sources that are useful in biological applications, advantages, and limitations. This review also summarizes the challenges and recent progress associated with hybridoma development, and how it has been overcome in these years to provide new insights for the isolation of mAbs.

Abstract
An antisheep podoplanin (sPDPN) monoclonal antibody (mAb), PMab-256, has recently been established. PMab-256 shows positive immunostaining for lymphatic endothelial cells, lung type I alveolar cells, and kidney podocytes. PDPN possesses three platelet-aggregation-stimulating (PLAG) domains, PLAG1, PLAG2, and PLAG3, and a PLAG-like domain (PLD). The binding epitope of many anti-PDPN mAbs is located in PLAG domains or PLD. The purpose of this study is to determine the binding epitope of PMab-256. Analysis of sPDPN deletion mutants revealed that the N-terminus of the PMab-256 epitope exists between amino acids 75 and 80 of sPDPN. Furthermore, analysis of sPDPN point mutations demonstrated that the critical epitope includes Thr80 of sPDPN, indicating that the PMab-256 epitope is in the PLD of sPDPN.

Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) that specifically target podoplanin (PDPN), a marker for type I alveolar cells, are needed for immunohistochemical analyses. Anti-PDPN mAbs are available for many species, including human, mouse, rat, rabbit, dog, cat, bovine, pig, Tasmanian devil, alpaca, tiger, whale, goat, horse, bear, and sheep PDPNs. However, no antilion PDPN (lioPDPN) antibody has been developed. In this study, possible cross-reaction between available anti-PDPN mAbs and lioPDPN was examined. Immunohistochemical analysis showed that antitiger PDPN mAb PMab-231 (IgG2a, kappa) reacted with type I alveolar cells from lion lung, indicating that PMab-231 is useful for the detection of lioPDPN.

Abstract
Anti-bear podoplanin (bPDPN) monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), including PMab-247 and PMab-241, have been previously established. Although PMab-247 has shown positive immunostaining for lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs), type I alveolar cells of the lung, and podocytes of the kidney, PMab-241 stains LECs but does not react with lung type I alveolar cells. PDPN possesses three platelet aggregation-stimulating (PLAG) domains (PLAG1, PLAG2, and PLAG3) and the PLAG-like domain (PLD). The binding epitope of PMab-247 was previously determined to include bPDPN residues Asp76, Arg78, Glu80, and Arg82. Among these, Glu80 and Arg82 are included in PLD of bPDPN. The purpose of this study is to determine the binding epitope of PMab-241 and to clarify the difference between these two anti-bPDPN mAbs. Analysis of bPDPN deletion mutants revealed that the N-terminus of the PMab-241 epitope exists between amino acids (aa) 75 and 80 of bPDPN. In addition, analysis of bPDPN point mutants demonstrated that the critical epitope of PMab-241 includes Thr75, Asp76, and Arg78 of bPDPN. The binding epitopes of PMab-241 and PMab-247 seem to overlap, but this slight difference may be sufficient to provide the specificity of PMab-241 to discriminate LECs from type I alveolar cells of the lung.

Abstract
Podoplanin (PDPN) is a small mucin-type transmembrane glycoprotein, which was first discovered in podocytes of the kidney. PDPN is a specific lymphatic endothelial marker and is also known as T1alpha, a marker of lung type I alveolar cells, or Aggrus, a platelet aggregation-inducing factor. PDPN possesses three platelet aggregation-stimulating (PLAG) domains and PLAG-like domains (PLDs), which bind to C-type lectin-like receptor-2. Previously, we developed a novel anti-whale PDPN (wPDPN) monoclonal antibody (mAb) PMab-237 using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening (CBIS) method and the RIEDL tag of Arg-Ile-Glu-Asp-Leu sequence. PMab-237 detected wPDPN by flow cytometry, western blot, and immunohistochemical analyses. However, the specific binding epitope of PMab-237 for wPDPN remains unknown. In this study, deletion mutants and point mutants of wPDPN with N-terminal RIEDL tag were produced to analyze the PMab-237 epitope using flow cytometry. The analysis of deletion mutants showed that the N-terminus of the PMab-237 epitope exists between the 80th amino acid (AA) and the 85th AA of wPDPN. In addition, the analysis of point mutants demonstrated that the critical epitope of PMab-237 includes Leu82 and Thr84 of wPDPN, indicating that the PMab-237 epitope is located in the PLD of wPDPN.

Abstract
Podoplanin (PDPN)/T1alpha/Aggrus, a small mucin-type transmembrane glycoprotein, has been shown to be expressed on lymphatic endothelial cells and epithelial cells of many organs. PDPN is also upregulated in many cancers, and is involved in cancer metastasis and malignant progression. Human PDPN possesses three platelet aggregation-stimulating (PLAG) domains and the PLAG-like domain, which bind to C-type lectin-like receptor-2 (CLEC-2). Previously, we reported a novel antipig PDPN (pPDPN) monoclonal antibody (PMab-210) using Cell-Based Immunization and Screening (CBIS) method. PMab-210 specifically detected pPDPN-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-K1 cells by flow cytometry and Western blot analysis. Immunohistochemical analyses demonstrated that PMab-210 stained pulmonary type I alveolar cells strongly and renal corpuscles weakly in pig or microminipig. However, the specific binding epitope of PMab-210 for pPDPN could not be determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using a series of pPDPN peptides. In this study, deletion mutants or point mutants of pPDPN were produced for analyzing the PMab-210 epitope using flow cytometry. The analysis of deletion mutants showed that N-terminus of PMab-210 epitope exists between 45th amino acid (aa) and 50th aa of pPDPN. In addition, the analysis of point mutants demonstrated that the critical epitope of PMab-210 could include Glu47, Asp48, Tyr49, Thr50, and Val51 of pPDPN, indicating that PMab-210 epitope is located in PLAG3 domain of pPDPN.

Abstract
Podoplanin (PDPN) is utilized as a specific marker of type I alveolar cells of lung and lymphatic endothelial cells of every tissue. Therefore, sensitive and specific monoclonal antibodies detecting PDPN are necessary for immunohistochemical analyses, especially using formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues. Recently, we developed an anti-bear PDPN (bPDPN) mAb, PMab-247, which is useful for Western blot, flow cytometry, and immunohistochemical analyses. In this study, immunohistochemical analyses showed that PMab-247 strongly detected bPDPN, which is expressed in type I alveolar cells and lymphatic endothelial cells of bear lung and podocytes of bear kidney. These findings suggest that PMab-247 could be useful for pathophysiological analyses using immunohistochemistry.

Abstract
Sensitive and specific monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against not only human but also mouse, rat, rabbit, dog, cat, bovine, pig, and horse podoplanins (PDPNs) have been established in our previous studies. However, anti-goat PDPN (gPDPN) has not been established yet. PDPN has been utilized as a lymphatic endothelial cell marker especially in pathological diagnoses; therefore, mAbs for immunohistochemical analyses using formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues are needed. Although we recently demonstrated that an anti-bovine PDPN mAb, PMab-44 cross-reacted with gPDPN, PMab-44 did not detect lymphatic endothelial cells in immunohistochemistry. In this study, we immunized mice with gPDPN-overexpressing Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)–K1 (CHO/gPDPN) cells, and screened mAbs against gPDPN using flow cytometry. One of the mAbs, PMab-235 (IgG1, kappa), specifically detected CHO/gPDPN cells by flow cytometry. Furthermore, PMab-235 strongly detected lung type I alveolar cells, renal podocytes, and lymphatic endothelial cells of colon by immunohistochemistry. These findings suggest that PMab-235 may be useful as a lymphatic endothelial cell marker for goat tissues.

Abstract
Sensitive and specific monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) targeting podoplanin (PDPN) are needed for immunohistochemical analyses using formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues because PDPN is known as a lymphatic endothelial cell maker in pathology. Recently, we established anti-PDPN mAbs against many species, such as human, mouse, rat, rabbit, dog, cat, bovine, pig, horse, goat, tiger, alpaca, and Tasmanian devil. However, anti-bear PDPN (bPDPN) has not been established yet. In this study, we immunized mice with bPDPN-overexpressing Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-K1 (CHO/bPDPN) cells, and screened mAbs against bPDPN using flow cytometry. One of the mAbs, PMab-247 (IgG1, kappa), specifically detected CHO/bPDPN cells by flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry. Our findings suggest the potential usefulness of PMab-247 for the functional analyses of bPDPN.
