Abstract

Four monoclonal antibodies reactive by immunofluorescence and by flow microfluorimetry with canine and porcine gastric parietal cell membranes were produced by fusion of mouse NS-1 myeloma cells with splenocytes from mice immunized with a population of canine gastric mucosal cells containing 60-70% parietal cells. One of these, an IgM antibody designated 2C1, reacted with the surface membranes of parietal cells by immunofluorescence, flow microfluorimetry, and immunogold electron microscopy; competed with 125I-labeled gastrin for binding to gastric cells; and inhibited by 56% maximal gastrin stimulation of [14C]aminopyrine uptake in parietal cells. The antibody immunoprecipitated 125I-labeled samples of a 78-kDa gastrin-binding protein purified from membrane extracts of porcine gastrin mucosa but did not recognize the same protein labeled covalently with 125I-labeled gastrin-(2-17)-hexadecapeptide. These observations suggest that the previously identified 78-kDa gastrin-binding protein is the gastrin receptor and that the antibody 2C1 is directed against the gastrin binding site of the gastrin receptor.
