摘要：Hybridoma cells have been obtained by fusing P3-NS1/1-Ag4-1 mouse myeloma cells with spleen cells from mice immunized with solubilized preparations of the thyrotropin receptor. Five clones were produced that secrete a monoclonal antibody whose binding to thyroid membranes is specifically inhibited by unlabeled thyrotropin. The antibody interacts with functioning thyroid cells in culture but not with nonfunctioning cells; this interaction is prevented by thyrotropin. The antibodies are capable of competitively blocking thyrotropin binding to bovine thyroid membrane preparations; they prevent 125I-labeled thyrotropin binding to a solubilized preparation of the glycoprotein component of the bovine thyrotropin receptor but are unable to inhibit 125I-labeled thyrotropin binding to liposomes containing gangliosides at comparable concentrations. They prevent 125I-labeled thyrotropin binding to rat, bovine, or human (Graves disease) thyroid membrane preparations. They do not stimulate adenylate cyclase activity in thyroid membrane preparations but can inhibit thyrotropin-stimulated iodide uptake by functioning thyroid cells in culture.
