In order to elucidate the immune-mediated hemolytic disease induced in man by elliptinium acetate, a quaternary ammonium compound with antineoplastic activity, polyclonal antibodies directed against this hapten were raised in rabbits. The coupling step between drug and carrier was performed according to a putative human in vivo hapten conjugation mechanism. Structure-activity relationships of the resulting IgG were compared with the epitope site recognized by human anti-elliptinium IgM by using a panel of twelve elliptinium acetate analogues. Although both antibodies were directed principally against the quaternary ammonium ion, a poor correlation between the cross-reactivity indices was obtained. In fact, it appeared that both antibodies recognized specifically the ammonium group plus different regions of the molecule: the indole ring for human antibodies, the N-alkyl group and its vicinity for rabbit ones. The specificity of the obtained rabbit polyclonal antisera is discussed, with regard to the conjugation mechanism of the drug occurring in man.
