Abstract:
OBJECTIVES:The human tissue kallikrein family contains three closely related proteases: human kallikrein 1 (hK1), human kallikrein 2 (hK2), and prostate-specific antigen (PSA). The structural homology between these three proteins suggests potential cross-reactivity interference when different immunologic techniques are used. This study evaluated PSA and hK2 monoclonal antibody (mAb) and polyclonal antibody (pAb) reactivities to hK1, hK2, and PSA. METHODS:mAbs and pAbs to hK2 and PSA were evaluated using Western blot analysis on hK1, hK2, PSA, and seminal plasma. RESULTS:pAbs to PSA and hK2 recognized all three human kallikreins, as well as fragments of hK2 and PSA. An mAb with minimal (less than 0.4%) cross-reactivity between PSA and hK2 and a cross-reactive mAb were found. mAbs specific to PSA or hK2 did not cross-react with the less homologous hK1 protein. A PSA mAb raised specifically to PSA fragments recognized both PSA and hK2 but did not cross-react with hK1. pAbs to hK1 cross-reacted slightly with PSA and not at all with hK2. CONCLUSIONS:Both pAbs and mAbs to hK2 and PSA may exhibit immunocross-reactivity. pAbs to PSA or hK2 react with all three human tissue kallikreins. The potential for cross-reactivity should be considered in any clinical or research procedures that use hK1, hK2, and PSA antibodies.
