How can you use antibodies to help you locate FSH-responsive cells?
In order to produce a monoclonal antibody against follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) a B cell capable of producing antibodies against FSH is fused with a myeloma cell. The resulting hybridoma is propagated, and an antibody produced by the hybridoma harvested. The antibody-producing hybridoma is detected utilising a radioimmunoassay together with immunohistology, and the fused cell hybrid selected is subsequently cloned into individual antibody-producing cell lines. In order to purify FSH impure FSH is passed through the monoclonal antibody against FSH bound to a matrix and the captured FSH is eluted from the matrix.
