Article Title: T cell depletion of human bone marrow: Comparison of Campath-1 plus complement, anti-T cell ricin A chain immunotixin, and soybean agglutinin alone or in combination with sheep erythrocytes or immunomagnetic beads
Abstract: The aim of this study was to compare the extent of in vitro T cell depletion and recovery of hematopoietic progenitor cells achieved with five methods of T cell depletion. Bone marrow samples from the same source were treated with monoclonal antibody Campath-1 (CP1) and human complement, XomaZyme-H65 (anti- T cell ricin A chain immunotoxin), or soybean agglutinin (SBA) alone or in combination with sheep erythrocytes (EAET) or a cocktail of immunomagnetic beads (B) directly coated with anti-CD2, anti-CD3, or anti-CD8 monoclonal antibodies. Residual T cells were enumerated by limiting dilution analysis, EAET rosetting, and proliferative responses to phytohemagglutinin. The results of this study demonstrated the following reductions in BM T cells as detected by limiting dilution analysis (mean % control): SBA+B (99.9%), SBA+EAET (99.8%), CP1+C' (99.4%), anti—T cell ricin A chain immunotoxin (99.0%), and SBA alone (94.2%). Neither PHA response nor enumeration of residual EAET rosettes provided discriminating differences in the degree of T cell depletion. © 1989 by The Williams and Wilkins Co.
