Radioimmunoassay of 2-hydroxyesterone using antisera raised against antigenic complexes obtained by convenient methods. 1989

M Numazawa, and K Kimura, and M Nagaoka, and A Kambegawa

Antigenic complexes of 2-hydroxyestrone (2-OHE1) were obtained by Mannich reaction of 2-OHE1 and bovine serum albumin (BSA) and by coupling of 2-OHE1 1-glutathione thioether to BSA using glutaraldehyde. Antiserum raised against the antigen obtained by the Mannich reaction had high affinity (Kd = 3.8 x 10(9) M-1) and relatively high specificity; cross reactivities for estrone, 4-hydroxyestrone and 2-methoxyestrone were 2.1%, 10% and 1.5%, respectively. The other antiserum also had high affinity (4.5 x 10(9) M-1) but its cross reactivities for the above three steroids were more than 100%. Concentrations of 2-hydroxyestrone in human plasma were determined by radioimmunoassay with the more specific antiserum and Sephadex LH-20 chromatography to be less than a minimum detectable amount (less than 10 pg/ml) (men), 20.9 pg/ml (women, proliferation) and 26.0 pg/ml (women, periovulation).

D011863 Radioimmunoassay Classic quantitative assay for detection of antigen-antibody reactions using a radioactively labeled substance (radioligand) either directly or indirectly to measure the binding of the unlabeled substance to a specific antibody or other receptor system. Non-immunogenic substances (e.g., haptens) can be measured if coupled to larger carrier proteins (e.g., bovine gamma-globulin or human serum albumin) capable of inducing antibody formation.

D004970 Estrone An aromatized C18 steroid with a 3-hydroxyl group and a 17-ketone, a major mammalian estrogen. It is converted from ANDROSTENEDIONE directly, or from TESTOSTERONE via ESTRADIOL. In humans, it is produced primarily by the cyclic ovaries, PLACENTA, and the ADIPOSE TISSUE of men and postmenopausal women.
