Abstract
In this report we describe some properties and applications of two different groups of monoclonal antibodies (Mab) produced in our laboratory for the analysis of molecular and cellular aspects of the process of carcinogenesis induced by N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (EtNU) in the develo** rat brain, Mab of the first group are directed against defined alkylation products in the DNA of cells exposed to alkylating N-nitroso compounds. In conjunction with sensitive immunoanalytical methods, these Mab are used for quantitation of alkyl-deoxynucleosides in the DNA of tissues and individual cells, for studies of DNA repair, and for analyses of the frequency and distribution of specific alkyldeoxynucleosides in the DNA of different chromatin fractions and in individual DNA molecules. Mab of the second group recognize and bind to cell type- and developmental stage-specific cell surface determinants (CSD) of rat brain cells (BC). These Mab are presently applied for the separation by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (and subsequent in vitro culture) of distinct BC subpopulaticns previously exposed to EtNU in vivo, as well as for comparative CSD analyses of defined subpopulations of BC and their malignant counterparts.
