The aims of this study were to produce and characterize mouse monoclonal antiidiotypic antibodies (AIAs) that specifically bind human antipig (anti-alphaGal) antibodies and to select those AIAs that neutralize the cytotoxicity of human or baboon serum to pig (PK15) cells. Mice were immunized with human anti-pig antibodies, and hybridomas were produced using conventional techniques. From a total of 480 clones, 11 produced AIAs that bound with high affinity to human anti-alpha Gal IgG and F(ab')2 fragments, and individually reduced serum cytotoxicity to pig cells by 40 - 90%. Seven of the AIAs also bound to human peripheral B lymphocytes (that express the same idiotypes as the antibodies produce). Several combinations of two or three AIAs provided 100% protection of PK15 cells. Selected AIAs injected intravenously into baboons reduced the cytotoxicity of subsequently drawn sera by 50--80% for >48 hr. The cytotoxicity studies also indicated that there are at least two dominant idiotypes expressed in the human anti-alphaGal population. We conclude that AIAs against anti-alphaGal antibodies could be successfully used in 1) preoperative characterization of a recipient's anti-alphaGal profile, (2) prevention of hyperacute rejection of a pig organ, and (3) specific immunosuppression through elimination of anti-alphaGal-producing B lymphocytes.
