C1q binding, C4d production, and serum complement–mediated tumor cell killing of SBU-CD55 × CD20. (a) Binding of SBU-CD55 × CD20, rituximab, and 4-1H to C1q detected by ELISA. (b) C4d production of SBU-CD55 × CD20. C4d produced in the presence of serum complements was measured using a C4d ELISA kit, and its signals were compared with those of rituximab. (c–f) CDC of SBU-CD55 × CD20, rituximab, 4-1H, and the combination of two IgG antibodies (rituximab and 4-1H) in lymphoma cell lines: Ramos (c), WSU-NHL (d), Ramos-RR (e), and BJAB (f). Standard errors calculated from triplicate samples are represented by error bars. Standard errors calculated from triplicate samples are represented by error bars. A P-value < 0.01 is represented as **, and a P-value > 0.05 is indicated by “n.s.” for not significant.
