Traditional techniques for the production of monoclonal antibodies usually result in generation of monoclonal antibodies to immunodominant molecules. To enhance the production of monoclonal antibodies to rare or less immunodominant antigens, subtractive immunization techniques have been employed. This study compared the ability of several subtractive immunization techniques to suppress the immune system to a given antigen. Neonatal tolerization, chemical immunosuppression with cyclophosphamide, a combination of the two and various permutations of these techniques were compared. The results from this study indicated that chemical immunosuppression with cyclophosphamide was the most effective subtractive immunization technique and that the cyclophosphamide regime employed was a critical determinant in the success of chemical immunosuppression. |
