A sensitive radioimmunoassay of alpha human atrial natriuretic polypeptide using monoclonal antibody recognizing human form ring structure.

Abstract:

:A monoclonal antibody (C351) against alpha human atrial natriuretic polypeptide (alpha hANP) recognizing human form ring structure was established and applied to a radioimmunoassay of plasma alpha hANP. The minimum detectable amount in terms of 10% radioligand displacement relative to zero dose were 0.28 fmol/tube, corresponding to 0.7 fmol/ml in plasma after extraction using Sep-Pak C18 cartridges. When the mean plasma levels at recumbent position in fasted morning were compared in 10 young (less than 30 years) and 10 elderly (greater than or equal to 50 years) healthy subjects taking normal sodium diet, it was slightly higher in the latter (3.2 +/- 0.4 vs 4.7 +/- 0.5 fmol/ml, mean +/- SE, p less than 0.05). After i.v. infusion of hypertonic saline (2.5% NaCl) at a rate of 0.24 ml/kg/min for 20 min in 6 normal subjects (26 to 35 years), it was increased from 4.1 +/- 0.4 to 5.9 +/- 0.7 fmol/ml (p less than 0.01). In 6 patients with essential hypertension (34 to 57 years), it was elevated with high salt intake, i.e. 3.3 +/- 0.3, 3.9 +/- 1.03 and 7.6 +/- 1.5 fmol/ml under 34, 170 and 340 mEq NaCl/day for 7 days, respectively. From these results, the radioimmunoassay of plasma IR-alpha hANP using MAb C351 seems to be quite suitable to detect rather small changes at low plasma concentrations and to investigate a physiological importance of alpha hANP in man.
