Monoclonal scFv antibody against human CD19 and β-galactosidase; Negative control

Anti-hCD19-βGal is a bispecific antibody that binds to two sites: hCD19 expressed on the surface of B cells, and E. coli β-galactosidase (β-Gal). It is used as a negative control for Anti-hCD19-CD3 bispecific antibody that, like Blinatumomab, engages unstimulated T cells to proliferate and exert cytotoxic activity on CD19-positive lymphoma cells [1,2].

A. Evaluation of T cell activation. Raji cells were pre-incubated with Anti-hCD19-CD3, or the two bispecific negative controls Anti-β-Gal-hCD3 and Anti-hCD19-β-Gal for 30 minutes before addition of Jurkat-Lucia™ NFAT cells. After 8 hours incubation, T cell activation was determined by measuring the Lucia luciferase activity using QUANTI-Luc™ detection reagent. Results are presented as relative activity expressed as a percentage of Lucia activity in samples with the highest dose of antibody.
B. Target specificity of Anti-hCD19-CD3 was verified upon incubation with Jurkat-Lucia™ NFAT cells and Raji cells as described in (A), with Jurkat-Lucia™ NFAT cells only, or with Raji cells only. T cell activation was determined by measuring the Lucia luciferase activity using QUANTI-Luc™ and expressed as relative light units (RLUs).
