Biosafety Level 1
Biosafety classification is based on U.S. Public Health Service Guidelines, it is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that their facilities comply with biosafety regulations for their own country.
Applications The antibody binds to an epitope in amino acids 126 through 191 on human ApoE.
Derivation Spleen cells were fused with Sp2/0-Ag14 myeloma cells.
Genes Expressed immunoglobulin; monoclonal antibody; against human apolipoprotein E (ApoE)
Cellular Products immunoglobulin; monoclonal antibody; against human apolipoprotein E (ApoE)
Tumorigenic Yes
Effects Yes, forms ascites in pristane primed BALB/c mice
Comments Animals were immunized with the major protein peak (G-200 fractionation) of delipidated human high density lipoprotein (HDL). Spleen cells were fused with Sp2/0-Ag14 myeloma cells. The antibody binds to an epitope in amino acids 126 through 191 on human ApoE. It can block ApoE mediated binding of lipoproteins to the the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor.
