We generated monoclonal antibodies after immunization of mice with rabbit liver-specific protein (LSP) preparations. One of these antibodies (2D3) showed an organ-specific and species-specific binding pattern as determined by immunohistological and ELISA techniques. Immunoelectron microscopy studies demonstrated that this antibody is bound exclusively to the liver cell membrane except in the region of the bile canaliculi. We further describe a simple ELISA technique for the detection of anti-LSP antibodies. Our study clearly demonstrates the presence of at least 1 organ-specific liver cell membrane antigen in rabbit LSP and shows antigenic differences between areas of the plasma membrane of hepatocytes.

D004797 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.
