Image caption:
Characterization of two novel anti-CD1d monoclonal antibodies.
(A) Titration of WTH-1 and WTH-2 mAbs on rat CD1d or mouse CD1d1 Raji transductants (left) and on C57BL/6 or LEW thymocytes (right). Cells were stained with the indicated concentrations of CD1d-specific antibodies (X axis). After washing, antibodies were detected with PE-labeled donkey anti-mouse IgG and analyzed by flow cytometry. On the Y axis, the geometric mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) is shown for the different antibody concentrations. (B) Immunoprecipitation of biotinylated surface proteins with WTH-1 (1), WTH-2 (2) or isotype control antibodies. Immunoprecipitated material was size separated under reducing conditions on a 15% SDS-PAGE, blotted onto a membrane and detected by addition of streptavidin-HRP. (C) Western blot analysis of proteins derived from rat CD1d (r) or mouse CD1d1 (m) transduced cells - left blots - and from rat tissues: spleen (spl), thymus (thy) and pancreas (pan) - right blots -. Proteins were separated on a 10% polyacrylamide gel under non-reducing conditions and blotted to a membrane. CD1d was detected with the WTH-1 or WTH-2 mAbs. The duration of film exposure for the CD1d immunoblots is indicated under the mAb names. After CD1d detection, the blots were stripped and re-probed with a polyclonal ERK2-specific antibody as protein loading control (lower blots).

Mouse anti Rat CD1d antibody, clone WTH1 (MCA5799) used to block NKT cell responses in vitro
Image caption:
Figure 5. Effects of anti-CD1d mAbs on antigen presentation to type I and II NKT cells.
(A) Blocking of type I NKT cells responses by the mAbs WH1-1 and WTH-2. IL-4 production was analyzed by measuring cytokine release into the culture supernatant 24 hours after initiation of the cultures by ELISA. Total splenocytes from C57BL/6 mice or F344 rats were cultured with α-GalCer (10 ng/ml), in the presence or absence of WTH-1, WTH-2 or isotype control antibodies (with a final saturating concentration of 3.6 μg/ml). Results were normalized to 100% for IL-4 production without antibody. Bars show means + standard deviation (SD) of the results obtained in three independent experiments. IL-4 concentrations without antibody were 9.9, 3.3 and 6.5 pg/ml and 15.8, 28.4 and 20.9 pg/ml for rat and mouse cultures, respectively. (B) Effects of the antibodies on CD1d antigen presentation to type II NKT cells. IL-2 was measured by ELISA in supernatants of co-cultures of type II NKT cell hybridomas and CD1d-transduced cells. Raw data were normalized to IL-2 production without antibody equaling 100%. The graphics represent the mean values + SD obtained from three independent experiments. The left graph shows IL-2 production by 5×104 VIII24.1 T cell hybridoma cells after co-culture with 5×104 mCD1d1-transduced LBB cells. IL-2 concentrations without addition of antibodies, in the three independent experiments, were 575, 415 and 572 pg/ml, respectively. The right graph gives the corresponding results for 1×104 XV19.2 T cell hybridoma cells after co-culture with 5×104 mCD1d1 transduced Raji cells. IL-2 concentrations without added antibody in the three independent experiments were 33.9, 101.6 and 22.6 pg/ml, respectively. To determine differences between cultures where isotype control antibody or anti-CD1d mAbs were added, two-tailed paired t-test was used. * and ** indicate p-values <0.05 and <0.005, respectively.

Epitope mapping of Mouse anti Rat CD1d antibody, clone WTH1(MCA5799) by flow cytometry
Image caption:
Epitope mapping of CD1d-specific mAbs.(A) Alignment of the amino acid sequences of the extracellular domains of the CD1d molecules used in this study. α-helical regions are illustrated in bold. The open triangle points out the localization of the rat CD1d allelism. Mutations in mouse CD1d1 are highlighted with closed triangles. The arrow indicates where mouse/human chimeras were joined. Numbers show rat CD1d amino acid positions. Accession numbers for the amino acid sequences can be found in GenBank: rCD1d (Rattus norvegicus CD1d), BAA82323; mCD1d1 (Mus musculus CD1d1), NP_031665; sCD1d1 (Mus spretus CD1d1), ACM45455; hCD1d1 (Homo sapiens CD1d), NP_001757. The mCD1d2 (Mus musculus CD1d2) amino acidic sequence differs in one amino acid in the signal peptide (tryptophan, position −13) from the sequence published under the accession number: P11610. (B) Binding capacity of mAbs to different CD1d molecules. Raji cells were transduced with CD1d molecules using a retroviral expression system. Bicistronic EGFP in the CD1d expression vectors served as reporter gene. Cells were stained with unconjugated WTH-1 or WTH-2 mAbs followed by PE-labeled donkey anti-mouse IgG or PE-labeled 1B1 mAb and were analyzed by flow cytometry. All primary antibodies were used at a final concentration of 250 ng/ml. (C) Localization of relevant amino acids in the CD1d tertiary structure. The model depicts part of the co-crystal of the PBS25 glycolipid and mouse CD1d (PDB: 3GMP) and it was visualized using PDB Swiss Viewer Deep View v4.0 [52] (http://www.expasy.org/spdbv/). The αα1 and α2 domains are shown. Gray and green ribbon diagrams highlight the regions constituting the N- and C-terminal parts, respectively, of the chimeric molecules. Spheres visualize the amino acids discussed in the text: aspartic acid (D) 93 in red, methionine (M) 162 in green, valine (V) 118 in gray and arginine (R) 21 in blue.

WTH‐2 and 1B1 but not WTH‐1 monoclonal CD1d antibodies can be used to stain cotton rat CD1d. Representative data from one of two experiments in total are shown. The biotinylated monoclonal mouse anti‐rat antibodies WTH‐1 and WTH‐2 (each 125 ng/ml), detected with streptavidin‐allophycocyanin, and rat anti‐mouse 1B1 phycoerythrin (2 μg/ml) were used to stain Raji cells transduced with rat, mouse, or cotton rat CD1d. Staining intensities are compared to isotype controls.

Mouse anti Rat CD1d antibody, clone WTH1 recognizes rat CD1d, a glycoprotein expressed on cortical thymocytes, certain T-cell leukaemias and various other antigen presenting cells. CD1d binds self and non-self glycolipids and presents them to T-cell receptors on natural killer cells. When activated, natural killer cells produce Th1 and Th2 cytokines.
Clone WTH1 binds with high affinity to the mature CD1d heavy chain independently of beta-2-microglobulin. Mouse anti Rat CD1d antibody, clone WTH1 efficiently blocks rat and mouse invariant natural killer T cell (iNKT cell) response to a-GalCer (an antigen for iNKT cells) and has a slightly higher affinity to native CD1d than clone WTH2.
Clone WTH1 cross reacts weakly with mouse tissue in IHC and western blotting, but reacts strongly with both rat and mouse antigens in flow cytometry and immunoprecipitation.
