Two distinct monoclonal antibodies, one to pertussis toxin subunit S2, called 9G8, and another to subunits S2 and S3, called 11E6, were generated from the hybridomas of myeloma SP2/0 and spleen cells of BALB/c mice immunized mainly with the subunit S234 complex. Binding ability of 9G8 and 11E6 to the subunits was confirmed by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and immunoblotting analysis. Generation of 11E6 bound to both S2 and S3 might mean that there is common antigenicity between S2 and S3. Neutralizing activities of 9G8 and 11E6 on various biological activities of pertussis toxin, including ADP-ribosyltransferase and leukocytosis-promoting, islet-activating, permeability-increasing. Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell-clustering, and hemagglutinating activities, were compared with those of anti-S1 monoclonal antibodies 1B7 and 3F10, which were isolated and characterized in a previous study (H. Sato, A. Ito, J. Chiba, and Y. Sato, Infect. Immun. 46:422-428, 1984). 1B7 and 3F10 neutralized ADP-ribosyltransferase activity of pertussis toxin or S1, but 9G8 and 11E6 did not. 1B7 showed very potent neutralization against leukocytosis-promoting, islet-activating, permeability-increasing, and CHO cell-clustering activities of pertussis toxin, but 3F10 did not, although anti-ADP-ribosyltransferase activities of both antibodies were identical. 11E6 neutralized leukocytosis-promoting, islet-activating, CHO cell-clustering, and hemagglutinating activities but not permeability-increasing activity. 9G8 showed slight neutralization of leukocytosis-promoting and CHO cell-clustering activities. Specific activities of 1B7 and 11E6 in each neutralization test were higher than or almost comparable to those of polyclonal antibodies to pertussis toxin. The neutralizing mechanism of 1B7 and 11E6 in leukocytosis-promoting activity was compared. 11E6 seemed to interfere with the binding of pertussis toxin to receptors on mouse spleen cells.
