Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 2. Anti-HER2 monoclonal antibodies production and characterization. (A) Morphology of the anti-human HER2/70.27.58 and anti-human HER2/70.21.73.67 hybridoma cells photographed at 20 × and 40 × magnification. (B) FPLC chromatograms were recorded during the purification of the anti-human HER2/70.27.58 and anti-human HER2/70.21.73.67 antibodies using affinity chromatography on the Protein A resin. (C) SDS-PAGE analysis of the purified anti-human HER2/70.27.58 and anti-human HER2/70.21.73.67 antibodies loaded at the amount of 1 µg/well on the 12% polyacrylamide gel under reducing conditions. (D) WB analysis of HER2 in whole cell lysates of the HER2 low expressing (MDA-MB-231) and HER2 high expressing (SK-BR-3, SK-OV-3) cells, probed with the home-made anti-human HER2/70.27.58 monoclonal antibody and detected with the secondary anti-mouse IgG-HRP (upper panel). The recombinant HER2 ECD protein was used as a reference. The loading control was performed with membrane probed with antibody binding β-actin (lower panel). (E) The formaldehyde-fixed SK-OV-3 cells were photographed in the bright field (BF) at the 40 × magnification. Immunofluorescence analysis was performed on cells stained with the commercial anti- HER2 ECD antibody followed by anti-mouse IgG-AlexaFluor594 (AF594) (red channel) and co-stained with the anti-HER2/70.27.58 or anti-HER2/70.21.73.67 antibodies detected with the AlexaFluor488-labeled (AF488) secondary antibody (green channel). Nuclei were stained with DAPI (blue channel) (F) Quantitative ELISA with the anti-human HER2/70.27.58 and anti-human HER2/70.21.73.67 antibodies loaded in a range of 0–5 µg/ ml on the plate coated with the recombinant chimera of the HER2 ECD-Fc protein. The signal generated from secondary antibody anti-mouse IgG-HRP was quantified by measuring absorbance at 450 nm and expressed after background subtraction (A450-A0).
Article Snippet: A flat bottom 96-well plate (MaxiSorp, Nunc, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) was coated with the Human HER2 Protein Fc Tag chimeric protein (AcroBIOSYSTEMS, Newark, DE, USA) diluted in 0.1 M NaHCO3, pH 9.6 buffer at 0.1 μg/well and incubated overnight at 4 °C.
