Fingerprinting of natural product by eastern blotting using monoclonal antibodies
Yukihiro Shoyama
Nagasaki International University, Japan
W
e prepared many kinds of monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against natural products and developed a new staining
method using MAb named as Eastern blotting. Glycosides like ginsenoside were developed by TLC, and the TLC plate
was covered by PVDF or PES membrane and blotted. The membrane was treated with NaIO4, and then with carrier protein
resulting in glycoside-carrier protein conjugates on membrane. In the case of non-glycoside natural product like aristolochic
acids, the conjugate with carrier protein was synthesized by appropriate pathway on the membrane. Peroxidase labeled
secondary MAb and then substrate were added, successively. Several ginsengs were analyzed to find out unknown ginsenosides
in American and Japanese ginseng by this fingerprinting. Also we separated ginsenosides using affinity column combined
MAb from the crude extract. The other bioactive glycosides like saikosaponins and glycyrrhizin can be stained and applied for
fingerprinting analysis. Aristolochic acids having kidney toxicity in
Alistolochia
spp. were separated by TLC and then blotted
onto a PES membrane by employing a modified carbodiimide method. The resulting membrane-bound aristolochic acids-
protein conjugates can be stained by Eastern blotting and fingerprinting. The staining of aristolochic acid in mouse kidney
tissues was succeeded. Moreover, we detected sequensed and determined a target protein against aristolochic acid in mouse
kidney cell lines using anti-aristolochic acid MAb. These related results will be also discussed.
