Abstract

CD39 is involved in adenosine metabolism through conversion of extracellular ATP to adenosine. Because extracellular adenosine plays a critical role in the immune suppression of tumor microenvironment, the inhibition of CD39 activity by monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is one of the important strategies for tumor therapy. In this study, we developed specific and sensitive mAbs for mouse CD39 (mCD39) using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening (CBIS) method. The established anti-mCD39 mAbs, which were established by the CBIS method including C39Mab-1 (rat IgG2a, kappa) and C39Mab-2 (rat IgG2a, lambda), reacted with not only mCD39-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary-K1 (CHO/mCD39) but also endogenously mCD39-expressed cell lines, such as L1210 (mouse lymphocytic leukemia) and J774-1 (mouse macrophage-like) cell lines through flow cytometry. Kinetic analyses using flow cytometry indicated that the dissociation constant (KD) of C39Mab-1 and C39Mab-2 for CHO/mCD39 was 7.3 × 10−9 M and 5.5 × 10−9 M, respectively. KD of C39Mab-1 and C39Mab-2 for L1210 was 3.3 × 10−9 M and 3.6 × 10−10 M, respectively. Furthermore, C39Mab-1 could detect the lysate of CHO/mCD39 by western blot analysis. These results indicate that C39Mab-1 and C39Mab-2 are useful for the detection of mCD39 in many functional studies.
