Popis: | Antibodies to CD66 recognize at least five members (CD66a–e) of the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) family. Recombinant human single-chain Fv fragments (scFvs) that bind specifically to CD66a (biliary glycoprotein) were obtained from a naive human scFv library. The scFvs bound to the N-domain of CD66a on Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) transfectants but did not bind to freshly isolated peripheral granulocytes or to dimethylsulfoxide-treated HL-60 cells. In contrast, scFvs bound well to granulocytes that were short-term activated with N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and to human HL-60 cells that were treated with all-trans-retinoic acid to induce granulocytic differentiation. Quantification of antigenic sites showed that the activation-dependent CD66a epitopes were expressed on nearly all of the CD66a molecules on CHO-biliary glycoprotein transfectants, but they were detected only on a portion of the molecules on activated polymorphonuclear neutrophils and differentiated HL-60 cells. Binding of CD66a scFvs to their neoepitopes on prestimulated PMNs induced respiratory burst, suggesting that CD66a is capable of delivering transmembrane signals in these cells. |
