| Abstract |
We have previously prepared monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against tumor vasculature using cultured rat tumor endothelial cells (TECs) isolated from solid KMT-17 tumors and identified 40 and 80 kDa antigens recognized by TES-17 and TES-23 MAbs, respectively. To clarify the nature of antigens on tumor vasculature, molecular cloning was conducted by screening the rat TEC cDNA library. Two antigens were detected: a 40 kDa OTS-8 antigen, which had been defined as a differentiation marker for osteoblastic lineage, and an 80 kDa CD44H antigen. Northern blots showed that OTS-8 mRNA was expressed exclusively in the lung, in addition to TECs, while CD44H mRNA was detected in the lung, intestine, spleen, thymus and peripheral blood cells, in addition to TECs. Immuno-histochemistry of KMT-17 tumors revealed that OTS-8 and CD44 were expressed on sprouting TECs. In addition, TES-23 MAb stained TECs of tubular vessels as well as sprouting TECs, but anti-rat CD44 MAbs stained only sprouting TECs. PCR showed that CD44 cDNA with a splice in exon 6 (CD44ex6) was present in rat TECs at low levels. Our results indicate that OTS-8 and CD44 are expressed on rat sprouting TECs and that TES-23 MAb recognizes CD44H on sprouting TECs as well as an unknown epitope on TECs of tubular vessels that could not be recognized by anti-rat CD44 MAbs.
