Three monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) (T6, U5, and U6) against prolactin (PRL)
receptors in rat liver were studied in the rat lymphoma lactogen- dependent
(Nb2-11C) and autonomous (Nb2-SP) cell lines. The mAbs had strong affinity
for lactogen receptors (Ka = 12-14 nM-1), similar to that of human growth
hormone (hGH) which is a lactogenic hormone. T6 and hGH competed for the
same binding site, while U5 and U6 interacted with another epitope. The
125I-hGH-receptor complex could be immunoprecipitated by either U5 or U6,
but not by T6. Affinity labeling and immunoblotting revealed that hGH and
U6 bind to a protein of 63-65 kDa. T6, U5, and U6 were mitogenic in Nb2-11C
cells but their respective potencies were 185-, 70-, and 4700-fold lower
than that of hGH. Anti-mouse IgG enhanced the mitogenic effect of all three
mAbs and almost completely abolished the differences between them, although
their mitogenic activity was still 60-120-fold lower than hGH. Des-13- hGH,
a competitive antagonist of hGH which hardly effected the binding of
125I-U5, inhibited the U5-stimulated proliferation of Nb2-11C cells in a
noncompetitive manner, indicating that simultaneous binding of both ligands
fixed the receptor in a nonactive conformation. A Fab fragment of T6 was
not mitogenic, and inhibited the hGH-induced mitogenesis in a competitive
manner, but its mitogenicity could be restored by anti-mouse IgG. We
suggest that the dimerization or oligomerization of the lactogen receptor
in Nb2-11C cells is an obligatory step in the transduction of the mitogenic
signal. It may be induced by binding of the mAb to a site, which can be
either identical or may even be distinct from that which binds the
lactogenic hormone.
