Definitions

  • monoclonal antibodies specific for the antigens or species of Giardia are desired which when used will rapidly diagnose the presence of such organisms in specimens.
  • -OBSTITUTH SHEET spec es. ome o e represen a ve mem ers t include Giardia lamblia and Giardia intestinalis. Giardia will be described with particular refer ⁇ ence to Giardia lamblia, the organism causing giardiasis. Giardiasis is very widespread in tropical countries but has spread extensively into temperature countries. Thousands of cases have been reported from mountainous areas such as Aspen, Colorado, where outbreaks of the disease involving hundreds of people due to contaminated water supplies have been reported. Travelers to Leningrad in Russia have suffered high percent ⁇ age attack rates of the disease.
  • the organism appears to produce diarrhea and then a chronic diarrhea which may lead to a severe malfunction of the bowel with weight loss, wasting and compli ⁇ cations from the malabsorption of food.
  • Treatment is potentially toxic, and diagnosis is time consuming, difficult and often insensitive, requiring skilled technicians to make a positive diagnosis. Travelers to other countries may be exposed to Giardia lamblia from contaminated food, particularly vegetables and fruit, and it is a frequent travelers 1 disease which leads to chronic diarrhea which may be inappropriately treated without a specific diagnosis.
  • the ability to antigens of Giardia can provide many opportuni ⁇ ties for diagnosis and treatment.
  • isotopic and nonisotopic immunoassays have been utilized in conjunction with monoclonal antibodies to test for the pres ⁇ ence of an antigenic substance.
  • agglutination, immuno-fluorescent, chemilum- inescent or fluorescent immunoassay, immuno- electron microscopy, radiometric assay systems, radio immunoassays, and enzyme-linked immunoassays are the most common techniques used with the monoclonal antibodies. Other techniques include bioluminescent, fluorescence polarization, and photon-counting immunoassays.
  • EIA enzyme-linked immunoassay procedure
  • the serotype of the infecting organism can be determined, and appropriate treatment can then be initiated to rapidly and efficiently eliminate the disease.
  • the present invention provides novel mono ⁇ clonal antibodies for use in accurately and rapidly diagnosing samples for the presence of Giardia antigens and/or organisms.
  • the present invention com ⁇ prises monoclonal antibodies specific for an antigen or species of Giardia; in particular, the antigens or species of Giardia lamblia (desig ⁇ nated as Giardia lamblia I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, or VIII), and Giardia intestinalis, as well as a monoclonal antibody broadly cross- reactive with an antigen for each species of the genus Giardia.
  • the antigens or species of Giardia lamblia desig ⁇ nated as Giardia lamblia I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, or VIII
  • Giardia intestinalis as well as a monoclonal antibody broadly cross- reactive with an antigen for each species of the genus Giardia.
  • the invention also comprises labeled mono ⁇ clonal antibodies for use in diagnosing the presence of the Giardia antigens, each com ⁇ prising a monoclonal antibody against one of the above-mentioned antigens to Giardia or to a particular species thereof and linked thereto an appropriate label.
  • the label can be chosen from the group consisting of a radioactive iso ⁇ tope, enzyme, fluorescent compound, chemilumines- cent compound, bioluminescent compound, ferromag ⁇ netic atom, or particle, or any other label.
  • the invention further comprises the process for diagnosing the presence of Giardia anti ⁇ gens or organisms in a specimen comprising con ⁇ tacting said specimen with the labeled monoclonal antibody in an appropriate immunoassay procedure.
  • the invention is also directed to a therapeutic composition
  • a therapeutic composition comprising a mono ⁇ clonal antibody for an antigen of Giardia and a carrier or diluent, as well as kits contain ⁇ ing at least one labeled monoclonal antibody to an antigen of a Giardia.
  • the monoclonal antibodies of the present invention are prepared by fusing spleen cells, from a mammal which has been immunized against the particular Giardia antigen, with an appropri ⁇ ate myeloma cell line, preferably NSO (uncloned), P3NS1-Ag4/1, or Sp2/0 Agl4.
  • the resultant product is then cultured in a standard HAT (hypoxanthine, aminopterin, and thymidine) medium. Screening tests for the specific monoclonal antibodies are employed utilizing immunoassay techniques which will be described below.
  • the immunized spleen cells may be derived from any mammal, such as primates, ' humans, rodents (i.e., mice, rats, and rabbits), bovine, ovine, canine, or the like, but the present invention will be described in connection with mice.
  • the mouse is first immunized by injection of the particular Giardia antigen chosen generally for a period of approximately eleven weeks. When the mouse shows sufficient antibody produc ⁇ tion against the antigen, as determined by conven ⁇ tional assay, it is given a booster injection killed so that the immunized spleen may be remov ⁇ ed. The fusion can then be carried out utilizing immunized spleen cells and an appropriate myeloma cell line.
  • the fused cells yielding an antibody which give a positive response to the presence of the particular Giardia antigen are removed and cloned utilizing any of the standard methods.
  • the monoclonal antibodies from the clones are then tested against standard antigens to determine their specificity for the particular Giardia antigen.
  • the monoclonal antibody selected, which is specific for the particular Giardia antigen or species, is then bound to.an appropri ⁇ ate label.
  • Amounts of antibody sufficient for labeling and subsequent commercial production are produced by the known techniques, such as by batch or continuous tissue culture or culture in vivo in mammals, such as mice.
  • the monoclonal antibodies may be labeled with a multitude of different labels, such as enzymes, fluorescent compounds, luminescent compounds, radioactive compounds, ferromagnetic labels, and the like.
  • labels such as enzymes, fluorescent compounds, luminescent compounds, radioactive compounds, ferromagnetic labels, and the like.
  • the present invention will be described with reference to the use of an enzyme labeled monoclonal antibody.
  • Some of the enzymes utilized as labels are alkaline phosphatase, glucose oxidase, galactosidase, peroxidase, or urease, and the like.
  • Such linkage with enzymes can be accomplished by any one of the conventional and known methods, such as the Staphylococcal Protein A method, the glutaraldehyde method, the benzoquinone method, or the periodate method.
  • EIA enzyme- linked immunosorbent assay
  • Fluorescent-immunoassay is based on the labeling of antigen or antibody with fluorescent antibody are combined with identical fluorescently labeled antigen. Both labeled and unlabeled antigen compete for antibody binding sites. The amount of labeled antigen bound to the antibody is dependent upon, and therefore a measurement of, the concentration of nonlabeled antigen. Examples of this particular type of fluorescent- immunoassay would include heterogenous systems such as Enzyme-Linked Fluorescent Immunoassay, or homogeneous systems such as the Substrate Labeled Fluorescent Immunoassay. The most suit ⁇ able fluorescent probe, and the one most widely used is fluorescein. While fluorescein can be subject to considerable interference from scattering, sensitivity can be increased by the use of a fluorometer optimized for the probe utilized in the particular assay and in which the effect of scattering can be minimized.
  • Fluorescence polarization In fluorescence polarization, a labeled sample is excited with polarized light and the degree of polarization of the emitted light is measured. As the antigen binds to the antibody its rotation slows down and the degree of polari ⁇ zation increases. Fluorescence polarization is simple, quick, and precise. However, at to the micromole per liter range and upper nano- mole per liter range with respect to antigens in biological samples.
  • Luminescence is the emission of light by an atom or molecule as an electron is transferred to the ground state from a higher energy state.
  • the free energy of a chemical reaction provides the energy required to produce an inter ⁇ mediate reaction or product in an electronically excited state. Subsequent decay back to the ground state is accompanied by emission of light.
  • Bioluminescence is the name given to a special form of chemiluminescence found in biological systems, in which a catalytic protein or enzyme, such as luciferase, increases the efficiency of the luminescent reaction. The best known chemilu inescent substance is luminol.
  • a further aspect of the present invention is a therapeutic composition
  • a therapeutic composition comprising one or more of the monoclonal antibodies to the particular Giardia antigen or species, as well as a pharmacologically acceptable carrier or diluent.
  • Such compositions can be used to treat humans and/or animals afflicted with some form of Giardia infections and they are used in amounts effective to cure; an amount which will vary widely dependent upon the individual being treated and the severity of the infection.
  • One or more of the monoclonal antibodies can be assembled into a diagnostic kit for use in diagnosing for the presence of an antigen, antigens, or species of Giardia in various speci ⁇ mens. It is also possible to use the broadly cross-reactive monoclonal antibody which can identify the genus Giardia alone or as part of a kit containing antibodies that can identify other bacterial genera or species of Giardia and/or other bacteria.
  • kits In the past there have been difficulties in developing rapid kits because of undesirable cross-reactions of specimens with antiserum.
  • the use of monoclonal antibodies can eliminate these problems and provide highly specific and rapid tests for diagnosis.
  • a rapid and precise kit could replace or augment existing tests and permit early direct therapy using precise antibiotics. Avoiding multiple antibiotics or more expensive or hazardous antibiotics would represent substantial patient and hospital sav ⁇ ings.
  • a kit can be used on an out-patient basis. At present the lack of a rapid test giving "same day" answers may delay the initiation of treatment until the patient has developed more severe symptoms or may require the initiation of more costly therapy in a sick patient. A test that would return results within an hour or two would be a substantial convenience to patients.
  • kit could be included as a component in a comprehensive line of compatible immunoassay reagents sold to reference laboratories to detect the species and serotypes of Giardia.
  • One preferred embodiment of the present invention is a diagnostic kit comprising at least one labeled monoclonal antibody against a particular Giardia antigen or species, as well as any appropriate stains, counterstains, or reagents. Further embodiments include kits containing at least one control sample of a Giardia antigen and/or a cross-reactive labeled monoclonal antibody which would detect the pres ⁇ ence of any of the Giardia organisms in a partic ⁇ ular sample.
  • Specific antigens to be detected in this kit include the antigens of Giardia lamblia (applicant has further divided this species into eight subgroups: Giardia lamblia I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII) and/or Giardia intestinalis.
  • Monoclonal diagnostics which detect the presence of Giardia antigens can also be used in periodic testing of water sources, food supplies and food processing operations.
  • the present invention describes the use of the labelled monoclonal antibodies to determine the presence of a standard antigen
  • the invention can have many applications in diagnosing the presence of antigens by determining whether specimens such as urine, blood, stool, water and milk contain the particular Giardia antigen. More particularly, the invention could be utilised as a public health and safety diagnostic aid, whereby specimens such as water or food could be tested for possible contamination.
