LDL isolated from five normal men produced five parallel displacement curves with conventional mouse antiserum but there was a significant difference of immunoreactivity among the LDL. None of our four monoclonal antibodies could eliminate the heterogeneous immunoreactivity of different LDL. Thus, the determination of plasma apolipoprotein (apo) B will vary depending on the selection of LDL standards, and the comparison of absolute apo B values between laboratories will be of questionable value unless they use the same LDL standard. Nonetheless, in a radioimmunoassay our monoclonal antibody, LP-22, detected a more significant (p less than 0.0001) increase of plasma apo B in patients with angiographically documented coronary artery disease than did conventional antiserum (p less than 0.001). In addition, the overlap of apo B concentrations for patients with and without disease was less when monoclonal antibody LP-22 was used. We conclude that patients with coronary artery disease have a significant increase in the form of plasma apo B that is specifically recognized by LP-22 monoclonal antibody. Perhaps monoclonal antibodies will be able to sort out the various components of apo B, delineate their possible atherogenic roles, and offer us a predictive value for diagnosing such patients.
