    Notes: Summary A highly sensitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for etoposide (EP) was developed, which is capable of accurately measuring as little as 40 pg EP/ml. Anti-EP sera were obtained by immunizing rabbits with EP conjugated with mercaptosuccinyl bovine serum albumin (MS.BSA) usingN-[β-(4-diazophenyl)ethyl]maleimide (DPEM) as a heterobifuntional coupling agent. An enzyme marker was similarly prepared by coupling EP with β-d-galactosidase (β-Gal; EC 3.2.1.23) via DPEM. This ELISA was specific for EP and showed a very slight cross-reactivity with its major metabolite,cis-hydroxy acid of EP (0.91%), but none with 4′-demethylepipodophyllotoxin and drugs commonly used with EP in combination chemotherapy for cancer treatment. The values for EP concentration detected by this assay were comparable with those detected by the highperformance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method. However, the ELISA was about 1,250 times more sensitive in detecting EP at lower concentrations. Using this assay, drug levels were easily determined in the blood and urine of rats for 7 h after i.v. administration of EP at a single dose of 3 mg/kg. Due to its sensitivity and specificity for EP, the ELISA should prove to be a valuable new tool for use in clinical pharmacological studies.

    Notes: Summary A sensitive enzyme immunoassay method (EIA) for an anticancer drug, aclacinomycin A (ACM), has been developed.With a double-antibody technique, ACM at a concentration as low as 100 pg/tube can be detected. An antibody to ACM was obtained by immunizing rabbits with an antigen prepared by coupling ACM with mercaptosuccinylated bovine serum albumin via N-maleoyl aminobutyric acid (MABA) as a coupling agent. Enzyme labeling of ACM was performed withβ-D-galactosidae (β-Gal; EC 3.2.1.23) via m-maleoyl benzoic acid (MBA). The standard curve of the assay was linear on a logit-log plot over a concentrationrange of 30 pg to 10 ng. The antibody detected ACM and its metabolites, MA144 M1 (M1), MA144 N1 (N1), MA144 S1 (S1), and aklavin (T1) equally well, but was only minimally reactive with aklavinone (D1) and 7-deoxyaklavinone (C1), thus suggesting that this EIA can detect the total amounts of ACM and its biologically active glycosides among metabolites of ACM. This EIA is practically free from interference by any other anticancer drugs. Using this assay, serum levels of ACM equivalents can be determined accurately after administration of the drug to rats at a single dose of 10 mg/kg. Since ACM is now undergoing clinical trial, the EIA of the drug will be a valuable tool in clinical pharmacological studies.

    Notes: Abstract  An immunocytochemical method using a recently produced monoclonal antibody (ASPM-29) with an antibody specificity to spermine (Spm) and spermidine (Spd) fixed in situ, was used to demonstrate an immunocytochemical localization of polyamine (PA) pools in the gastrointestinal tracts of rats and mice. High PA immunoreactivity was always found in the cytoplasm of cells not only at the cell proliferative zone or the precursor cell zone but also at the neighboring non-proliferative premature cell zone of the epithelium, and a gradient of decreasing PA levels was noticed from these cells to the fully mature differentiated gastric surface mucous cells and absorptive cells of the small and large intestines. Also, strong staining for PAs was seen in the cytoplasm of fully differentiated gastric chief cells and neurons of both the myenteric and submucous plexuses, whereas the nuclei of the cells remained virtually unstained. These results may suggest that PAs are closely associated with the high biosynthetic activity in the cells of the gastrointestinal mucosa of normal rats and mice. This seems to be consistent with the PA imunocytochemical results previously obtained for neoplastic cells and active protein- or peptide-secreting cells, including exocrine or endocrine cell types.

    Notes: Abstract  We have developed mouse monoclonal antibodies (AHA-1–5, all IgG1 sub-isotype mAbs) against histamine (HA) conjugated to bovine serum albumin using glutaraldehyde-NaBH4. Among these, AHA-1 mAb was found to be the most useful for HA immunocytochemistry (ICC) in terms of specificity and sensitivity without non-specific immunobinding. AHA-1 was demonstrated to be specific to HA with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) binding test, simulating the ICC of tissue sections, and not reactive to any of the other amino acids and peptides with N-terminal histidine tested. By use of this antibody, indirect immunoperoxidase staining was observed in rat stomach fixed with glutaraldehyde (GA) in combination with NaBH4 reduction. In contrast, no immunoreactivity was seen in tissue fixed only with GA. Absorption controls indicated that the immunostaining could be completely inhibited by GA-conjugated HA, which was consistent with the results of an ELISA inhibition test. No cross-reactivity occurred with other GA-conjugated amino acids. ICC staining was dense in the cytoplasm of gastric enterochromaffin-like cells and very weak in mast cells. A new finding was that staining was noticed in some cell bands of the intermediate layer between the stratum lucidum and the stratum corneum of the stratified squamous epithelium of the gastric cardia, esophagus, tongue, and skin in rats. The results strongly suggest that the monoclonal antibody allowed highly specific detection of HA in animal tis- sues.
