Clearance and prevention of prion infection in cell culture by anti-PrP antibodies.
description:
N2a cells were infected with the mouse-adapted scrapie strain 22L. Culturing N2a/22L cells in the presence of epitope-specific MAb 8B4 reduced the level of PrPsc by 54% without affecting the level of PrPc, as detected by immunoblotting PK-resistant PrPsc and total untreated PrP in cell lysates.
