Abstract
The C-C motif chemokine receptor 8 (CCR8) is highly expressed in regulatory T cells. CCR8 is also expressed in many cancers and is associated with those progression. The development of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for CCR8 leads to cancer immunotherapy and elucidation of unknown mechanisms of CCR8-dependent cancer progression. In this study, we have developed an anti-mouse CCR8 (mCCR8) mAb (clone C8Mab-3, rat IgG1, kappa) using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening (CBIS) method. We revealed that C8Mab-3 and its recombinant antibody (recC8Mab-3) bind to mCCR8-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-K1 cells (CHO/mCCR8), but not to the parental CHO-K1 cells, in flow cytometry. In addition, C8Mab-3 and recC8Mab-3 reacted to P388 (a mouse lymphocyte-like cell) and J774-1 (a mouse macrophage-like cell), which express endogenous mCCR8. C8Mab-3 also detected exogenous and endogenous mCCR8 using immunocytochemistry. These results suggest that C8Mab-3, developed using the CBIS method, is useful for immunocytochemistry against exogenous and endogenous mCCR8.
