Research Abstract	神経発生過程における神経幹細胞の分化機構を明らかにすることを目的として、分化過程における特定の細胞を生きたまま同定することのできる抗体を作成した。胎生11日目のマウス胎仔期の終脳の細胞をラットに免疫し、約7000のハイブリドーマをクローン化した。まずFACSによって細胞表面を認識する抗体を選別し、次に胎仔脳の切片の免疫組織化学を行い、興味深い染色パターンを示す抗体を産生するクローンをスクリーニングした。プロトプラストフュージョン法による発現クローニングによって、これらのうち二つの抗体の抗原遺伝子を決定したところ、ephrinB1とM6aであることが明らかになった。 Ephrinは、受容体型チロシンキナーゼEphの膜結合型リガンドであり、軸索走行の制御など様々な生物現象に関与することが知られている。今回得られた抗体は、EphrinB1を特異的に認識し、他のEphrinBサブファミリーを認識しないことを確認した。本抗体を用いた免疫組織化学的解析によってEphrinB1は放射状グリアに強く発現していることが明らかになった。放射状グリア細胞には、ニューロンの移動の足場としての役割の他、神経幹細胞様の性質を有することが知られており、これらの細胞生物学的性質にEphrinB1の機能が関与している可能性が考えられる。さらに本抗体は、神経幹細胞のセルソーターによる分離にも役立つ可能性がある。 M6aは、PLP/DM20ファミリーに属する脂質蛋白質である。本研究で得られた抗体は、同じファミリーのメンバーであるPLPとは反応しないことを確認した。免疫組織化学的な解析によって、M6aは胎児脳における中間層に存在するニューロン様細胞に発現することを見いだした。
