Abstract
Though hundreds of thousands of papers are currently being published on HIV/AIDS, only tens of hundreds of them are devoted to the antibodies generated during the disease. Most of these papers discuss antibodies in HIV/AIDS as a diagnostic tool, and some articles describe neutralizing antibodies as a promising treatment. In this paper, we used affinity chromatography and ELISA to isolate natural IgG from the blood of 26 HIV-infected patients. IgG preparations were separated into the subfractions containing different types of light chains, and catalytic activities of subfractions were analyzed. Here, we show for the first time that the blood of HIV patients contains ~20% of bispecific κλ-IgG, presented with all IgG subclasses. Analysis of DNA-hydrolyzing and amylolytic activity show that most IgG preparations and subfractions are catalytically active. Our results expand the possible biological functions of natural IgG in HIV infection.

Abstract
Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE)-prone C57BL/6 mice are used as a model of human multiple sclerosis. We immunize mice with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG), DNA-histone and DNA-methylated bovine serum albumin (met-BSA) complexes to reveal different characteristics of EAE development including bone marrow lymphocyte proliferation and differentiation profiles of hematopoietic stem cells. Immunization of C57BL/6 mice with MOG35-55 results in the acceleration of EAE development. Anti-DNA antibodies are usually directed against DNA-histone complexes resulting from cell apoptosis. During the acute EAE phase (7-20 days after immunization), catalytic antibodies efficiently hydrolysing myelin basic protein (MBP), MOG and DNA are produced with parallel suppression of antibodies hydrolysing histones. We could show that in contrast to MOG, immunization with histone-DNA results in a reduction of proteinuria, a significant increase in anti-DNA, anti-MBP and anti-MOG antibody titres, as well as an increase in their catalytic activities for antigen hydrolysis, but slightly changes the concentration of cytokines. Contrary to MOG, DNA-histone and DNA-met-BSA only stimulated the formation of anti-DNA antibodies hydrolysing DNA with a long delay (15-20 days after immunization). Our data indicate that for C57BL/6 mice immunization with DNA-met-BSA and DNA-histone complexes may have opposing effects compared to MOG. DNA-histone stimulates the appearance of histone-hydrolysing abzymes in the acute EAE phase, while abzymes with DNase activity appear at significantly later time-points. We conclude that MOG, DNA-histone and DNA-met-BSA have different effects on numerous bone marrow, cellular, immunological and biochemical parameters of immunized mice, but all antigens finally significantly stimulate the development of the EAE.

Abstract
Immunization of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE)‐prone C57BL/6 mice with MOG35‐55 (a model used to study aspects of human multiple sclerosis) is known to lead to the production of various abzymes. The production of catalytic IgGs that can efficiently hydrolyse myelin basic protein (MBP), MOG and DNA is associated with changes in the profile of differentiation and level of proliferation of mice bone marrow haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). As MOG simulates the production of abzymes with high DNase activity, we compared the effects of DNA and MOG immunization on EAE‐prone mice. In contrast to MOG, immunization with DNA leads to a suppression of proteinuria, a decrease in the concentrations of antibodies to MOG and DNA and a reduction in abzyme production. Immunization with DNA only resulted in a significant increase in DNase activity over 40 days where it became 122‐fold higher than before immunization, and fivefold higher when comparing to the maximal activity obtained after MOG treatment. DNA and MOG immunization had different effects on the differentiation profiles of HSCs, lymphocyte proliferation, and the level of apoptosis in bone marrow and other organs of mice. The data indicate that for C57BL/6 mice, DNA may have antagonistic effects with respect to MOG immunization. The usually fast immune response following MOG injection in C57BL/6 mice is strongly delayed after immunization with DNA, which is probably due to a rearrangement of the immune system following the response to DNA.

Abstract
An immunoglobulin light chain phagemid library derived from peripheral blood lymphocytes of three patients with systemic lupus erythematosus was used. Phage particles displaying DNA binding light chains were isolated by affinity chromatography on DNA-cellulose, and the fraction eluted by an acidic buffer (pH 2.6) was used for preparation of individual monoclonal light chains (MLChs, 28 kDa). Thirty three of 687 individual colonies obtained were randomly chosen for study of MLCh DNase activity. Nineteen of 33 clones contained MLChs with DNase activity. Four preparations of MLChs were expressed in Escherichia coli in soluble form, purified by metal chelating chromatography followed by gel filtration, and studied in detail. Detection of DNase activity after SDS-PAGE in a gel containing DNA demonstrated that the four MLChs are not contaminated by canonical DNases. The MLChs demonstrated one or two pH optima. They were inactive after the dialysis against ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid but could be activated by several externally added metal ions; the ratio of relative activity in the presence of Mg(2+) , Mn(2+) , Ni(2+) , Ca(2+) , Zn(2+) , and Co(2+) was individual for each MLCh preparation. K(+) and Na(+) inhibited the DNase activity of various MLChs at different concentrations. Hydrolysis of DNA by all four MLCh was saturable and consistent with Michaelis-Menten kinetics. These clones are the first examples of recombinant MLChs possessing high affinity for DNA (Km = 3-9 nM) and demonstrating high kcat values (3.4-6.9 min(-1) ). These observations suggest that the systemic lupus erythematosus light chain repertoire can serve as a source of new types of DNases.

Abstract
CONTEXT Affinity chromatography is an efficient antibody, antigen and protein separation method based on the interaction between specific immobilized ligands and target antibody, antigen, and so on. Populations of available ligands can be used to separate antibodies or their Fab fragments. Similarly, antigens can be isolated by immunoaffinity chromatography (IAC) on immobilized antibodies of low affinity. OBJECTIVE This review describes the advantages, the applications, as well as the drawbacks, of IAC in the separation and purification of antibodies and antigens. METHODS The present review discussed all types of purification and isolation of antibodies and antigens by IAC, including purification of antibodies using immobilized and synthetic mimic proteins A, G and L; isolation of Fab fragments of antibodies; separation of antibodies against different antigen forms; isolation of antigens by immobilized antibodies and so on. These methods come from over 60 references compiled from all major databases. RESULTS Purification of antigens with antibodies should choose low-affinity antibodies to avoid denaturation of most proteins. Concern for cost and safety, prompted research activities focused on novel synthetic ligands with improved properties such as lower cost, avoidance of the risk of contamination associated with natural ligands of human or animal origin to isolate antibodies and antigens. CONCLUSION It is anticipated that the improvements of IAC will have impact not only on large-scale production of antibodies but also on the generation of new affinity-based methods for the increasing number of proteins and antibody derivatives available by protein engineering and the proteomics revolution.

Abstract
It has been shown for the first time that polyclonal IgG abzymes (Abzs) with DNase activity from the sera of autoimmune-prone MRL/MpJ-lpr mice can be separated by isoelectric focusing into many subfractions having the isoelectric points (pI) from 4.5 to 9, with the maximal activity for Abzs with pI = 6.5-9.0. Affinity chromatography on DNA-cellulose separated DNase IgGs into many subfractions demonstrating a range of affinities for DNA and different levels of the relative DNase activities (RDA) due to intrinsically bound metals and after addition of external Mg(2+) , Mn(2+) , Ca(2+), and Mg(2+) +Ca(2+). Some fractions significantly increase RDAs in the presence of external ions (Mg(2+) + Ca(2+) > Mg(2+) > Mn(2+) > Ca(2+)), while each of this cofactor can also inhibit or have no influence on the RDAs of another fractions. It is known that complexes of DNA with histones and other proteins of apoptotic cells are the primary immunogens in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Bovine serum albumin (BSA) and methylated BSA (mBSA) increase the RDAs of only some fractions, while have no effect or inhibit other IgG fractions. The ratio of the RDAs in the presence of all metal ions, BSA, and mBSA was individual for every abzyme fraction. Mn(2+) and Ca(2+) stimulated accumulation of only relaxed form of supercoiled DNA (scDNA) in the case of all subfractions, while in the presence of Mg(2+) antibodies (Abs) of some subfractions (and in the presence of Mn(2+) +Ca(2+) all subfractions) produced relaxed DNA (rDNA) and linear DNA (linDNA) in a variable extent. The data obtained show that the polyclonal Abzs of mice may be a cocktail of Abs directly to DNA, RNA, and their complexes with proteins and anti-idiotypic Abs to active centers of different nucleases. The diversity of the physicochemical and kinetic characteristics of the Abzs seems to be significantly widened when pre-diseased mice spontaneously develop the disease.

Abstract
Abzymes (Abzs) with different enzymic activities have been detected in the sera of patients with various autoimmune (AI) diseases and in AI mice. In this work, electrophoretically homogeneous IgGs were isolated from the sera of MRL-lpr/lpr mice spontaneously developing lupus-like AI pathology. It was shown for the first time that polyclonal IgGs (pIgGs) and their isolated heavy and light chains hydrolyze different nucleoside-5'-triphosphate (NTPs), nucleoside-5'-diphosphate (NDPs), adenosine monophosphate and deoxiadenosine-5'-monophosphate (dAMP), whereas antibodies from the sera of control healthy mice were catalytically inactive. Monoclonal mouse IgGs also effectively hydrolyze nucleotides. The data demonstrate that nucleotide-hydrolyzing activity is an intrinsic property of isolated mouse pIgG and monoclonal IgG. It was shown that various markers of AI pathologies (proteinuria and antibody titers to native and denatured DNA) demonstrating spontaneous development of AI reactions increased in animals with aging and correlated with an increase in Abz relative activity in hydrolysis of nucleotides. The highest increase in AI reaction markers and in Abz enzymic activity was found in mice immunized with a DNA-protein complex.

Abstract
Serological presence of anti-double-stranded DNA (anti-dsDNA) antibodies is a common phenomenon in cancer patients. Some patients with relatively high levels of anti-dsDNA antibodies may have a better prognosis, indicating the potential antitumor roles of anti-dsDNA antibodies. To delineate the role and mechanisms of anti-dsDNA antibodies in delaying tumor development, here we prepared a panel of anti-dsDNA monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and assessed their antitumor effects both in vitro and in vivo. After immunization of BALB/c mice with DNA from SP2/0 tumor cells, 12 anti-dsDNA mAbs were obtained. Among these mAbs, mAb 2G8 exhibited the strongest cytotoxicity to Wehi164 cells in vitro and significantly inhibited the growth of tumor in vivo. This mAb 2G8-mediated antitumor effect was mainly exerted by triggering apoptosis, as evidenced by Annexin V staining and DNA fragmentation. Further, the expression of antiapoptotic genes Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL was downregulated while that of pro-apoptotic gene Bax was upregulated, suggesting the involvement of mitochondrial apoptotic pathway. Taken together, dsDNA-specific mAb 2G8 revealed promising tumor-suppressive activity by inducing apoptosis, which provides a possible new strategy for the development of tumor intervening methods.

Abstract
It was shown that IgGs from the sera of 2–7-month-old control non-autoimmune (CBA x C57BL)F1 and BALB/c mice and 2–3-month-old autoimmune prone MRL-lpr/lpr mice (conditionally healthy mice) are catalytically inactive. During spontaneous development of deep systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)-like pathology a specific reorganization of immune system of these mice leads to conditions associated with a production of IgGs hydrolyzing DNA, ATP and polysaccharides with low catalytic activities (conditionally pre-diseased mice).A significant increase in DNase, ATPase and amylase IgG relative activities associated with a transition from pre-diseased to deep diseased mice is correlated with additional changes in differentiation and proliferation of mice bone marrow haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and lymphocyte proliferation in different organs.The highest increase in all abzyme activities was found in mice immunized with DNA, which in comparison with pre-diseased and diseased mice are characterized by a different profile of HSC differentiation and by a suppression of cell apoptosis. Abzyme activities in the serum of pregnant females were comparable with those for pre-diseased mice, but the profile of HSC differentiation and cell apoptosis levels in pregnant and pre-diseased mice were quite different. Right after the beginning of lactation (4 days after delivery) and in a late time of lactation (14 days after delivery) there was an observed increase in cell apoptosis and two different stages of significant change in the HSC differentiation profiles; the first stage was accompanied with a significant increase and the second with a remarkable decrease in abzyme activities. Overall, all mouse groups investigated are characterized by a specific relationship between abzyme activities, HSC differentiation profiles, levels of lymphocyte proliferation, and cell apoptosis in different organs. From our point of view, the appearance of ATPase, DNase activities may be considered the earliest statistically significant marker of mouse spontaneous SLE and a further significant increase in their activities correlates with the appearance of SLE visible markers and with an increase in concentrations of anti-DNA Abs and urine protein. However, development of autoimmune (AI)-reactions and the increase in the sera anti-DNA antibodies (Abs) and in the abzyme activities in pregnant and lactating mice do not associate with SLE visible markers and proteinuria. The possible differences in immune system reorganizations during pre-disease, disease, pregnancy and lactation leading to production of different auto-antibodies and abzymes are discussed.

Abstract
We have shown previously that electrophoretically and immunologically homogeneous polyclonal IgGs from the sera of autoimmune-prone MRL mice possess DNase activity. Here we have analyzed for the first time activation of DNase antibodies (Abs) by different metal ions. Polyclonal DNase IgGs were not active in the presence of EDTA or after Abs dialysis against EDTA, but could be activated by several externally added metal (Me(2+)) ions, with the level of activity decreasing in the order Mn(2+)> or =Mg(2+)>Ca(2+)> or =Cu(2+)>Co(2+)> or =Ni(2+)> or =Zn(2+), whereas Fe(2+) did not stimulate hydrolysis of supercoiled plasmid DNA (scDNA) by the Abs. The dependencies of the initial rate on the concentration of different Me(2+) ions were generally bell-shaped, demonstrating one to four maxima at different concentrations of Me(2+) ions in the 0.1-12 mM range, depending on the particular metal ion. In the presence of all Me(2+) ions, IgGs pre-dialyzed against EDTA produced only the relaxed form of scDNA and then sequence-independent hydrolysis of relaxed DNA followed. Addition of Cu(2+), Zn(2+), or Ca(2+) inhibited the Mg(2+)-dependent hydrolysis of scDNA, while Ni(2+), Co(2+), and Mn(2+) activated this reaction. The Mn(2+)-dependent hydrolysis of scDNA was activated by Ca(2+), Ni(2+), Co(2+), and Mg(2+) ions but was inhibited by Cu(2+) and Zn(2+). After addition of the second metal ion, only in the case of Mg(2+) and Ca(2+) or Mn(2+) ions an accumulation of linear DNA (single strand breaks closely spaced in the opposite strands of DNA) was observed. Affinity chromatography on DNA-cellulose separated DNase IgGs into many subfractions with various affinities to DNA and very different levels of the relative activity (0-100%) in the presence of Mn(2+), Ca(2+), and Mg(2+) ions. In contrast to all human DNases having a single pH optimum, mouse DNase IgGs demonstrated several pronounced pH optima between 4.5 and 9.5 and these dependencies were different in the presence of Mn(2+), Ca(2+), and Mg(2+) ions. These findings demonstrate a diversity of the ability of IgG to function at different pH and to be activated by different optimal metal cofactors. Possible reasons for the diversity of polyclonal mouse abzymes are discussed.

Abstract
The antiproliferative activity of previously synthesized (Z)-cholest-4-en-6-one oxime (1), (E)-cholest-4-en-6-one oxime (2), 7-aza-B-homocholest-4-en-6-one (3) and 6-aza-B-homocholest-4-en-7-one (4) and newly synthesized 6-thioxo-7-aza-B-homocholest-4-ene (5) and 6-aza-7-thioxo-B-homocholest-4-ene (6) was tested for their possible effects against two human tumor cell lines, cervical carcinoma (HeLa) and chronic myelogenous leukemia (K-562). Compounds 1-6, exerted a dose-dependent antiproliferative effect toward cell lines used in experimental design, showing high selectivity in their action for tumor cells in comparison to normal immunocompetent cells (non-stimulated PBMC and PHA-stimulated PBMC). Compounds 2, 3 and 4 exhibited a very high but selective antitumor activity, by inducing apoptosis in sensitive, for that purpose targeted tumor cell line (HeLa cells). Low toxic effect upon both non-stimulated, and PHA stimulated PBMCs from control, healthy volunteers, has been detected for compounds 1, 2, 3 and 4. The possible reasons for profound differences in the effects of this spectrum of steroidal compounds between tumor cell lines and normal stimulated and non-stimulated PBMCs are discussed. The molecular mechanisms for apoptotic events in HeLa cell line are suggested. The guidelines for further research are underlined.

Abstract
In the present study, we investigated the substrate specificity of catalytic activity of a cytotoxic anti-DNA monoclonal autoantibody, G1-5, which was obtained from an MRL-lpr/lpr mouse by hybridoma technology. The antibody catalyzed hydrolysis of single- and double-stranded DNA with a higher substrate specificity for thymine than adenine by either beta-glycosidic or phosphodiester bond cleavage. The hydrolysis rate (kcat) showed maximum at acidic pH conditions, suggesting that the catalytic site of the antibody contains essential carboxylic group(s). Treatment of cells with the antibody promoted cell death and induced the activation of caspases. The cell death induced by the antibody was inhibited by the pan-caspase inhibitor. Furthermore, the antibody binds to cell membrane and penetrates into the cells. Our results suggest that the cell death is initiated by antibodies penetrating to cells and nucleus, hydrolyzing considerable amount of DNA, and mediating the caspase-dependent apoptotic pathway.

Abstract
Animals spontaneously developing lupus-like autoimmune pathology (SLE) are very promising models to study the mechanisms of natural abzymes (Abzs) generation and their role in etiology and pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases, but Abzs from the sera of animals remain virtually unstudied. In this work, electrophoretically homogeneous IgGs were isolated from the sera of MRL/MpJ-lpr mice. It was shown for the first time that amylase activity is an intrinsic property of antibodies (Abs) and their isolated heavy and light chains. Various markers of SLE pathology (proteinuria, enhanced concentration of anti-DNA Abs) increased with spontaneous development of SLE and especially after animal immunization, correlating with the increase in Abz relative amylase activity. The highest amylase activity was found in the sera Abs of healthy mice after delivery and at the beginning of lactation; this was not correlated with markers of mouse SLE but supports the idea that pregnancy could "activate" or "trigger" autoimmune-like manifestations and Abzs production in healthy mammals. The possible differences in mechanisms of Abzs production in lactating mice and animals developing SLE are discussed.

Abstract
Anti-DNA antibodies (Abs) are of biomedical interest because they are associated with autoimmune diseases in human and mice. Previously we isolated an anti-DNA monoclonal Ab 3D8 from an autoimmune-prone MRL-lpr/lpr mouse. Here we have characterized DNA binding kinetics and hydrolyzing activities of the recombinant single chain variable fragment (scFv) and the single variable domains of heavy chain (VH) and light chain (VL) using various single-stranded (ss) and double-stranded (ds) DNA substrates. All the Abs bound to both ds- and ssDNAs without significant preferential sequence specificity showing scFv higher affinities (KD = approximately 17-74 nm) than VH (KD = approximately 2.4-8.4 microm) and VL (KD = approximately 3.2-72 microm), and efficiently hydrolyzed both ds- and ssDNAs without sequence specificity in a Mg2+-dependent manner, except for the poor activity of 3D8 scFv for ss-(dT)40. Elucidated crystal structure-based His to Ala mutations on the complementarity determining regions of VH (His-H35 --> Ala) and/or VL (His-L94 --> Ala) of 3D8 scFv significantly inhibited the catalytic activities, indicating that the His residues are involved in the catalytic mechanism of 3D8 scFv. However, the DNA hydrolyzing activities of single domain VH and VL were not affected by the mutations, indicative of their different catalytic mechanisms from that of 3D8 scFv. Our results demonstrate single domain Abs with DNase activities for the first time, which might provide new insights into substrate recognition and catalytic mechanisms of anti-DNA Abs.

Abstract
Abzymes (catalytic autoantibodies) belong to an absolutely new group of physiologically active substances with dual characteristics: they represent a pool of canonical autoantibodies and possess catalytic activity. Among them, proteolytic and DNA-hydrolyzing autoantibodies are of special value. Abzymes are an important pathogenic factor in the progression of clinical autoimmunity syndrome. The presence of autoantibodies against various autoantigens is accompanied by their high catalytic potential. The increase in this activity correlates with serum levels of the autoantibodies, clinical manifestations of autoimmune disorders, disease severity and the rate of progressing disability. Abzymes are crucial for immune homeostasis regulation. They can be of practical value in the development of modern immunodiagnostic tools and schedules of immunotherapy.

Abstract
In the present investigation, we detected anti-dsDNA autoantibodies in cancer patients and modeled the production of anti-dsDNA autoantibodies by inoculating tumors in BALB/c mice. Moreover, induction of anti-dsDNA autoantibodies by immunization with inactivated tumor cells and their DNA indicated that DNA of tumor cells was probably the primary antigen, which was supported by the significantly increasing levels of sera free DNA in cancer patients and tumor-bearing mice. cELISA and indirect immunofluorescence assay showed that the anti-dsDNA autoantibodies could bind to the surface components of tumor cells. In vitro assay showed that immunosera at week 6 from immunized mice displayed significant cytotoxicity to tumor cells compared to that of negative control, but no cytotoxicity mediated by immunosera at week 22 was observed. In addition, by flow cytometry and electrophoresis of fragmented DNA, the cytotoxicity might probably be mediated by apoptosis. Our data also showed that the ability of the anti-dsDNA autoantibodies to induce apoptosis of SP2/0 and Wehi 164 cells was significantly correlated (r = 0.990, p < 0.01 and r = 0.901, p < 0.05) with their functional affinity. In vivo, the growth of solid tumors was significantly inhibited in the immunized mice inoculated directly with SP2/0 and Wehi 164 cells, or in the naïve mice which were inoculated with SP2/0 cells preincubated with immunosera containing anti-dsDNA autoantibodies. In conclusion, we demonstrated the origin of anti-dsDNA autoantibodies in cancer patients and tumor-bearing mice. And our data also showed that these autoantibodies revealed anti-tumor effect by inducing apoptosis.
