An IgG2a hybridoma antibody (BC-10) was obtained by a myeloma fusion with lymphocytes from B10.RIII mice immunized against native bovine type II collagen. This anti-collagen monoclonal exhibited extensive cross-reactivity with several type II collagen species. BC-10 was found to have self-associating properties, but not the specificity of a typical IgG rheumatoid factor, inasmuch as this mAb bound to F(ab')2 fragments of itself and of normal mouse IgG. Self binding was inhibited by the association of BC-10 with type II collagen, and inhibition assays indicated that antibodies with the capacity to inhibit BC-10 binding to collagen were present in the sera from B10.RIII arthritic mice, but not from DBA/1 LacJ arthritic mice. Joint inflammation and histopathologic features consistent with arthritis were observed in mice injected with the BC-10 hybridoma.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007140 Immunoglobulin Fab Fragments Univalent antigen-binding fragments composed of one entire IMMUNOGLOBULIN LIGHT CHAIN and the amino terminal end of one of the IMMUNOGLOBULIN HEAVY CHAINS from the hinge region, linked to each other by disulfide bonds. Fab contains the IMMUNOGLOBULIN VARIABLE REGIONS, which are part of the antigen-binding site, and the first IMMUNOGLOBULIN CONSTANT REGIONS. This fragment can be obtained by digestion of immunoglobulins with the proteolytic enzyme PAPAIN.
