Bispecific molecules (BSMs) facilitate the targeting of immune effector cells to tumor cells. Here we describe the construction and characterization of a recombinant BSM comprising two single chain fragments: H22(scFv), targeting the Fc gamma-receptor (CD64) on monocytes, and Ki4(scFv), targeting CD30 on Hodgkin lymphoma cells. A homologous, chemically-linked BSM has been described previously, but is heterogeneous and difficult to prepare. The recombinant version is easier to prepare and homogeneous, yet retains the antigen specificities and efficiently triggers CD64-related effector functions. The elimination of lymphoma cells was preferentially achieved by phagocytosis, not through the ADCC pathway additionally activated by the chemically-linked molecule.

D000920 Antibody-Dependent Cell Cytotoxicity The phenomenon of antibody-mediated target cell destruction by non-sensitized effector cells. The identity of the target cell varies, but it must possess surface IMMUNOGLOBULIN G whose Fc portion is intact. The effector cell is a "killer" cell possessing Fc receptors. It may be a lymphocyte lacking conventional B- or T-cell markers, or a monocyte, macrophage, or polynuclear leukocyte, depending on the identity of the target cell. The reaction is complement-independent.

D017452 Receptors, IgG Specific molecular sites on the surface of various cells, including B-lymphocytes and macrophages, that combine with IMMUNOGLOBULIN Gs. Three subclasses exist: Fc gamma RI (the CD64 antigen, a low affinity receptor), Fc gamma RII (the CD32 antigen, a high affinity receptor), and Fc gamma RIII (the CD16 antigen, a low affinity receptor).

D017730 Ki-1 Antigen A member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily that may play a role in the regulation of NF-KAPPA B and APOPTOSIS. It is found on activated T-LYMPHOCYTES; B-LYMPHOCYTES; NEUTROPHILS; EOSINOPHILS; MAST CELLS and NK CELLS. Overexpression of the Ki-1 antigen in hematopoietic malignancies make it clinically useful as a biological tumor marker. Signaling of the receptor occurs through its association with TNF RECEPTOR-ASSOCIATED FACTORS.
