摘要:The biological activities of mouse IgG1, IgG2a, IgG2b, and IgE monoclonal were investigated. As has been shown with conventional antibodies, monoclonal IgG1 and IgE are the two classes capable of sensitizing the mouse for anaphylactic reactions, IgE sensitizes the rat, and IgG2a sensitizes the guinea pig. What has not been seen with conventional antibodies is that large amounts of monoclonal IgG2a or IgG2b can sensitize the mouse, very large amounts of monoclonal IgE can sensitize the guinea pig, and very large amounts of IgG1 and IgG2a can sensitize the rat. One of the IgG1 monoclonal antibodies was capable of fixing complement by the classical pathway.
